adamstrange Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 another beauty, Adam........... here's one i dug up that's worthy of this thread. i might be mistaken but i think this is the one Mummy cover that hasn't been displayed yet; from October 1960 comes JIM 61 and GOMDULLA............ Thanks, BB. Is that one of your Sid's books? Did you pick up many of the pre-hero books as a kid? Or did you switch over to Marvel with the arrival of the hero books?

burntboy Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 i got that copy of JIM 61as one of three pre-hero JIM's that were included in a large run of silver/bronze copies i picked up a couple of years ago. don't recall buying many pre hero marvels when i was a kid and most of them would have gone as trade for other books/magazines...............i probaly bought mostly ACG fantasy stuff back then. still have a few, but not in the best of shape....

I was just curious. I was talking with a friend of mine that picked up Showcase 4 for a dime off the stand and he mentioned he didn't start picking up Marvels until they started doing superheros.

Silver Surfer Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 Adam do you have complete runs of the pre-hero TTA/TOS and J.I.M.'s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstrange Posted April 2, 2005 Share Posted April 2, 2005 Adam do you have complete runs of the pre-hero TTA/TOS and J.I.M.'s? What, you don't like Strange Tales? In addition to the big four, I like the Strange Worlds, Worlds of Fantasy, Amazing Adventure, and Amazing Adult Fantasy. All titles together includes 170 issues -- and I'm impressed by anyone with a complete collection, regardless of grade. My collection is not complete.
