Great Ditko cover filled with menace + mystery Scans do not do it justice, it is Rich....any way you could PM me a ballpark figure on what this went for....I've got a buddy who has one he's thinking about slabbing and it's close to 9.0....they're VERY tough in that grade.GOD BLESS... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u PM sent (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Just picked up a JIM 66 in vg/f! Need just one more Kirby pre-hero for that title! Cool!! Which one? 56. Lucky for me, I don't need high grade! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky for me, I don't need high grade! Ah, you are talking about ZOG... This is a great Don Heck mini-epic. Typical "ancient alien astromaut stuck in an iceburg, is defrosted and wants to summon his buds to take over the Earth" story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Nice copy, I don't remember seeing that issue too often. I wish I started to collect these when they were under the radar and very cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasFan Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 JIM from #50-59 are quite hard to find, but I think that those issues really had some of the best covers of the pre-hero run. My favorite JIM cover is #58 A nice Ditko FF#1 prototype cover -- Rro is another Don Heck masterpiece! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Rro has big, dewey eyes. Yep, I need Zog! You can rest assured, AtlasFan, that my future copy won't be anywhere near as dreamy as yours. Nice, nice book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
