RICK STARR Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Sam Peterson. Do we hate him for the writing, or thank him for the books? Just super looking books K-J. That JIM #2 looks much better than a 4.0. What's wrong with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RICK STARR Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Here is another batch. Edenwald copy Shows you how difficult this issue is in HG. Practically every PH issue from this collection is VF+ or better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Amazing stuff as always, RS. My runs of Suspense and Astonish are such that just these marginal copies made the "nice" cut... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Bronze age fan* Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Sam Peterson. Do we hate him for the writing, or thank him for the books? ] Just super looking books K-J. That JIM #2 looks much better than a 4.0. What's wrong with it? Yeah very nice comics KJ those look in pretty nice shape! As for what is wrong with the JIM 2. Just general wear. The back cover is also pretty nice. Maybe it was graded during a strict period? Looks nicer then a 4.0 to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtlasFan Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 (edited) Amazing stuff as always, RS. My runs of Suspense and Astonish are such that just these marginal copies made the "nice" cut... I alway thought that the story that Marvel was comparing the reader response of the "Man in the Ant Hill" to the "Man in the Beehive" was a lot of hooey! The Beehive guy is a crook who tries to steal from that bee-keeping Mutant 1%-er: Lucius Farnsworth. Farnsworth has some extensive mental power that can control insects and (we think) plant illusions in the brains of the weak-minded. We are not 100% sure at the end of the story if he can really shrink stuff (maybe). I dont think there was a lot to do with LF in a monthly series. However, Farnsworth would have made a great villain for the X-Men! Edited February 2, 2014 by AtlasFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, there was no time to weigh the response; Ant-Man's adventures in TTA #35 started the very next month. The decision had almost certainly been made at that point.

gunsmokin Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Are Two Gun Kid 58 and Rawhide Kid 22 considered to be in the realm of pre-hero Marvel? Both have excellent Kirby interior art with classic "monster" villains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I don't know if they can be officially included, but I know they are "must haves" for me. I imagine many pre-hero collectors feel the same way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
