AtlasFan Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Jerry had some nice books this time out. I really liked the pre-hero JIMs books he had from the series mid #50s run! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They went for reasonable prices, some tough books to find in grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dollarbill Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 So are we getting a round 3 of Pre-Hero? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 So are we getting a round 3 of Pre-Hero? Good question. Journey's will be the toughest to pick just one favorite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking STs myself...I can think of about 5-6 STs off the top that might just be in my Top 10 combined Pre-Heros! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtleboy23 Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 It has to be JIM 62 the first Hulk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Surfer Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 It has to be JIM 62 the first Hulk. I actually like #66 better but its not my favorite of the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasFan Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 (edited) Dudes...#58 is the "King of the Hill" in monster covers. I wish Ditko had done more covers like this. You could even say that this cover is kindofa a precursor to FF1 -- maybe a bit of a stretch, but there are some elements of FF1 in there... I remember Mark Wilson calling me back in '91 (or maybe it was '92?) telling me that he finally got one in and to to stop badgering him! It was a great day indeed.

turtleboy23 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 There are some great books in the upcoming clink August auction. A 9.0 TTA 20 and a 9.4 TOS22 I know that TTA 20 is a popular cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crimson dynamo Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 I think a pre hero JIM cover contest will be much harder then the TTA and TOS. 54, 64 and the awesome 78 come to mind as iconic classics, but that is just my overly biased, selfish opinion Strange Tales might be the hardest though.

Silver Surfer Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Did someone day Strange Tales? Would have liked to find a better copy but that's not an easy task so this will have to do for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the issue's I was thinking of, 80-90 are pretty solid. I would also love to get a hold of a 8.0 ST 85. But this does present very well Surfer.
