Silver Surfer Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Thanks to Cheetah, some truly great books have come into my collection. The first is a mega upgrade + best known copy of this book: Next up is the book that helps complete the entire TTA run for me from #1-101. A super tough book in grade, this copy is rivaled by only a single 9.4. The next best copy to this one is a 7.0!! Incredibly tough to come by in high grade: Wow no kidding. Books you never see in that kind of grade, outstanding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCJ Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I find the Pre-Hero books just charming. Of course I would fall to my knees and in the Hero comics rooms, which I imagine would be full of other fun accoutrements such as: But there's something so engaging about the pre-hero stuff. When I see them, I'm like a little kid again. Give yourself a pat on the back, pre-hero collectors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtlasFan Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 (edited) I must say that the Kirby multi-panel covers are really starting to grow on me...at first they reminded me of some of those (blah!) Charlton covers, but when its Kirby, it works! Let's celebrate the multi-panel pre-hero covers! Edited June 23, 2011 by AtlasFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamstrange Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I most appreciate the multi-panel covers when they portray a mini-story sequence like on this cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mysterio Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 I recently got this one back after getting the signature in person at the Dallas Comicon. I like first page signatures the best so I was happy to be able to get this done in a way I could be proud of, yet not have a cover signature that would mar the classic cover art.
