Sharkey Posted August 19, 2006 Share Posted August 19, 2006 Glad you are finally out here posting your sweet, sweet Pre-Hero books, Angelo! It was great meeting you at the Chicago Con, sorry I missed the majority of the show, but my scuba trip rocked. I'll post the goodies I picked up on preview night as soon as I have time to scan them!

TheWatcher Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 The pleasure was all mine, Steve. And thank you for providing me with the TTA #26. Glad to hear that you enjoyed your trip. Angelo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWatcher Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Nice books! Looking forward to seeing you post more often! Okay then, here are a few more from my collection: Angelo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstrange Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Thanks for posting Watcher! I've always thought this was particularly effective multi-panel cover: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWatcher Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Thanks for posting Watcher! I've always thought this was particularly effective multi-panel cover: I agree completely. I love it when Kirby/Ditko combined on a monster cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkey Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Angelo, those are all GREAT books! Keep it going! Sorry for cross-posting, but in case you don't go into Comics General or Comic Events, here's my pickups from Chicago, all Pre-Hero naturally! Also, I posted my extremely late and brief con report in the Events section: Rhino's Chicago Report Strange Tales 85: Return of Gargantus! I have always loved this cover because of my deep-sea fixation. AAF 8: I have a copy of this book, but any time I see a decent copy that's better than a 4.0 I'll probably buy it. A gorgeous red cover and incredibly hard to find in nice grades! TOS 34: Probably wins the award for the most panels in a multi-panel cover! I always liked those multi-panel covers, like the TOS 23, 28, etc. TOS 35: Nice copy and Watcher prototype to boot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstrange Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Very nice, but didn't you give up on these or am i thinking of a different large African mammal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharkey Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 Michael Corleone: Just when I thought that I was out....they pull me back in. You nailed it, Red. It's an illness, I swear it! You know, I love the books. I just can't help myself. I did sell a chunk of them off. But I will keep buying them when I see something I like. I seem to do this about every 6 to 7 years. Keeps the hunt fresh or something, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hook Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 BTW.....I know it's already been mentioned....but that AAF 8 is a Beeeeeyoootch to find in high grade. That's a sweet copy. I'd love to see a Ditko five page story Masterworks edition. Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to see a Ditko five page story Masterworks edition. Red That's why I picked it up. I have a 5.5 and that's the nicest I've ever owned. I love that cover! You and me both. An AA/AAF Masterworks would be superb. I was hoping they'd start with that instead of Tales to Astonish!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hook Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 To me those Ditko 5-pagers were the equivalent of Comic Book Caviar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharkey Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Great idea, Adam! Ok, I have posted this before, but what the heck. Here's a nice pre-hero Pedigree'd book (Pac Coast) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasFan Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 Hot Dog!!! A pre-hero Marvel thread... This one is one of my favorites and it occurs towards the twilight of the Marvel Age of Monsters. Awesome Kirby cover... one of the King's best!
