Backyard BBQ with Geeks, Comics and Pulps

[BB-Gun]

I also argued with Bill about the artist who drew Superman in World's Fair 1939. I think it looked like Paul Cassidy's work but it does seem pretty early. He did do a lot of the early Superman stories before Burnley stepped in.

I had a good time at the semi-annual Comic Book and BBQ Backyard Tent Festival (CBBBTF).

The tent was set up with comics and other toys.

Since Red Fury was hosting the party, there were a few Weird Tales issues on the table.

 

 

..... I try not to covet other people's stuff, but ,man, youse guys make it tough. Are those pulps as immaculate as they look in the pics ? GOD BLESS....

Jack and I talked about what was left of our original silver age collections. I still have a lot of Sgt. Rock comics and Hawkman (B andB) issues by Kubert.

 

Pronounced Koobert and not Qubert.

Most people said that Mort Meskin was pronounced with a soft "e" instead of long "EE".

 

Thanks for posting, looks like a lot of fun was had by all. I was visiting an old friend in the DC offices last year and he had pulled some of these old Kubert war books from the archives. While we hadn't ever collected them we were impressed by how well they held up and their beauty forty five years after they had been published.

Hard to take Kay's sentiment seriously; it's a Double Joker cover! The joke was on Jim!

white pages.that is one tough book with that PQ.Now how does that get any better maybe an Action 1 in 9.0 showing up.Ha!

Did someone take a picture of Bob's painting of the alternate AF 15 cover? That was amazing. He is very talented.

 

I'm going to ask him to do a cover for me. Maybe two

I didn't get a good pic but it looked a lot like this.
