You see, I'd ordered the book a month ago, but he couldn't locate it at the time, and eventually had to refund my payment. He told me if it ever turned up, he'd let me have it for $10. less than list price, just for the hassle. I'm not entirely sure this is the same copy, but he still applied the discount to it.

Scrooge Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 A no-prize to you, Scrooge. The move from black to red is stunning. Great editorial decision, great choice of image. That's one mysterious photo cover. Speaking of which, you of all people might know the answer to this question: what would you say, roughly, is the % of photo covers for westerns? I've been thinking about this in broader terms. One fact that emerged I never thought about before is that in contrast to the Romance genre, the Western genre has been part of comics since their inception. Western features have appeared in the early '30's anthology books from the start. True Western-only books only emerged in the post-WW II. and cohabited with the Romance books. In contrast, I am not aware of any Romance features sneaking in anthologies and other books (let's leave the Western Romance genre alone for now). In other words, Romance was carefully segregated from the rest of comics in a way that neither Horror (take a look at late run Cap for many horror stories), Western or Crime / Detective were. At any rate, one would have to look at "pure" Western titles to answer your question ... interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazza Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) I saw a beautiful high-grade copy of this at the Glasgow ComicCon this weekend. One of only two romance comics at the whole event! All romance comics are relatively rare in the UK Edited September 7, 2014 by Dazza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
