cheetah Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I've realize that I have a number of other books from this collection that I've never posted. Seems silly to waste their good looks on the inside of a box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR.X Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Great Books. I'm glad you posted that Tales to Astonish #7. Something always struck me funny on that issue and I thought Id bring it up. The cover picture with the thing on Bald Mountain. In the inside story, theres nothing that even looks like that, let alone a castle with the head being on a rope. I always wondered if there was a different version of the cover or something and it got mixed up when it went to print. DRX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't think I'm going to open these up and actually READ them, do you? Those are beautiful! BTW. The man on the cover is the sculptor in the story,'The thing on Bald Mountain,' at the back of the book, named Anton Gorge. It is a story of statues he created coming to life and battling. Although, the actual statue was not in the comic per-se, it can easily be inferred to be one of his creations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheetah Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Korvac, you have assembled an awesome set of these books. I'm amazed at how many high grade copies you've managed to bring together. Have you gotten any of the books from Comic Book World? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasFan Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Here is a run that is very underappreciated...WOF #18 is actually believed to be the first Kirby pre-hero monster cover..all hail XOM! First monster of the pre-hero age! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
