Which is the same amount for Heath. Dang! Colletta just inked the heck out of those two. I wonder if his first step was to erase Everett's pencils? jimjum12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me wonder if it started as a horror cover and then somebody at Gilmor said, "Hey wait! The cover never came in for Radiant Love 6. What can we use? Let's see, if we cut the fangs on this guy and clean him up a little, it just might work." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The interior stories are unbelievably racy, with alcoholism, wife beating, multiple rape attempts, suicide and other rough stuff... And hey, if you collect drunken hookup covers, this right here is pretty much your Action #1. Never seen a copy before. It's kind of reminiscent of Giant Comics 15 ... in a very unwholesome way!

Good point. The label note doesn't say "cover," so probably not him. I assume it's recycled from an Avon paperback. Does look a bit like ERK, though.

Nah, Colletta didn't ink this book. His sig, while not iron clad proof, is indicative. More telling is the two background figures are clearly Everett; if Colletta had inked, that wouldn't be the case. FoggyNelson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sacentaur Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Speaking of scarce romance, at WonderCon Bedrock shared with me a tall sweet stack of post-Code DC romance (50’s to early 60’s) - mid grade to high grade, every single book I saw was attractive and appealing. He was still sorting and pricing, but oh my... Sqeggs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
