Looks like it's been signed by the man himself. No authentication, mind you...I bought it like this...your mileage may vary.

I believe that brings us to the end of my Slabless Steranko Smorgasbord...unless I find something straggling that I missed, that's all the books for this thread.

 

Thanks for looking (and buying)!

Recap moved to the end...

 

[pwog]

Next up, we have the complete run (three issues) of Spyman...let's keep these together as a set for now.

 

Spyman #1 contains Steranko's first published work as a comic artist...he wrote the -script for the lead story, and penciled the first page, including that robotic hand. In Spyman #2, Steranko also worked on the -script and his robotic hand is on the cover. The hand makes another appearance on the cover of Spyman #3.

 

Asking $30 for the three issue run...

 

Spyman 1, FN 6.0

nice copy, other than that odd white splotching on the FC next to the "S" - there is no texture to it, and no paper rippling…no idea what it was - without that, the book is an 8.0…with it, let's say 6.0

 

 

Spyman 2, FN/VF 7.0

cb creasing URFC; spine stress

 

 

Spyman 3, VF- 7.5

tiny diag. cb crease tip of URFC; light cover edge wear

This next book is interesting because it has a single panel of action that spans 4 pages...you need two copies of the book to see it all at once, so if you only have one copy of the 167, you need another one so you can do this:

 

 

 

 

Strange Tales 167, FN 6.0, BIN $15

light dust shadow back cover; light cover edge wear; tiny tear in the field of FC over Fury’s right eye

Expanding the thread beyond the Steranko theme and adding a handful of pre-hero books that I have ready to go...

[EC ed]

Amazing Adventures 1, VG- 3.5, BIN $175 SOLD

presents well, nice colors and gloss; full length subscription crease fc, but not too bad; centerfold detached at top staple, still hanging on at the bottom (barely); put it in a mylar and enjoy...

small bit of moisture staining (no rippling) lower spine corner on both covers; small chip out of the LRFC; moderate cover creasing; ncb cover wear; really nice page quality
