Nice book, a great example of his use of bright, bold contrasting (or maybe it's complimenting?) color schemes.

 

I've been digging some of Cole's romance covers lately, does anyone have a list of all his romance/teen titles? Still have never found a LB Cole checklist, but sure would like to have one.

[Scrooge]

You should compile one

Suspense 4 is real tough, I just hope to find an affordable mid-grade with decent eye appeal some day.

 

In the meantime, I've added a few Cole books recently, here's one picked up off ebay from a board member:

 

 

Awesome copy!!! I only need that one and the #9 to complete my LB Cole run of that title. I also just picked up a CONTACT #1, so I only need to find a #7 of that title to complete that run.

 

However my recent "grail" pickup was a CGC 4.0 of the classic CRIMINALS OF THE RUN "fish in the face" cover!!!

Nice...did you snag any of the Coles in Filter's recent ebay auctions? You just don't see runs like that offered all at once too often!

[pmpknface]

Yeah, that's where I got the CONTACT #1. I passed on the #7 because I didn't like that copy.

 

FYI, here's my Fish Face cover (it's the pic from the listing). The colors are much brighter then they appear:

 

 

I often use Comic Base to get lists for things, so I'll try to see if I can get you a list of Cole's romance (and other) comics. FYI - they are having a sale if you or anyone else is interested.

Grabbed this one last night. I wish the condition was better, but you don't see this one often. In the past 2 days I've searched this entire thread and it hasn't popped up yet:

This is a great cover. I don't collect romance comics but I would love to have this and the #15 (snow cover).

Here's a cool book. I had Underground Comix legend Larry Welz do a Startling Terror # 11 cover homage with Cherry on an Avenging Spider-man blank:
