Popular Post Robot Man Posted August 12, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 12, 2019 When was the last time you spent $15. On a vg copy of a comic with art this good? OtherEric, Larryw7, porcupine48 and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtherEric Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Two books today. MD 2 and Extra 4. This completes my run of both the titles. In fact, unless you count Incredible Science Fiction as a New Direction title, it completes my run of the New Direction books. I personally don't include ISF as a New Direction book, but I won't argue with anybody who does. You can make good cases either way. Here's the MD run: Raze and Marty Mann 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 And here's the run of Extra. Still not one of my favorite New Direction books, but I do love the covers: Raze, Marty Mann, KirbyJack and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Congratulations on completing New Direction! Probably the most quality for your buck you're going to find, sadly; The New Trends are definitely trending UP in price. OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One is signed by Gaines and the other is signed by Kurtzman, Elder, Severin and Davis. Great run of books, love those number one's with the sigs! Heres my floor shot of my MAD comics.

I have about 2/3rds of the sci-fi and 3 or 4 Suspense to go. I have most of the western and romance issues. Crime Patrol and COT will be pricey. It’s a slow and steady process. My main focus right now. For the most part, all are pretty available. I’m shooting for 4.0-7.0 and will have a few to upgrade when I’m done. Fun process! Thanks Bob, been working on my EC run off and on since the mid 70's, almost have them all. From the Bible books, pre-trend, to new Trend to the new Direction books.

OtherEric Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Two EC's in today. The first is what I could probably best describe as a nice coverless copy which happened to come with a large chunk of the front cover. Lower grade than what even I would normally go for. But for $10 it was worth it. 50 Girls 50 is one of the most famous EC SF stories for a very good reason.

Popular Post OtherEric Posted August 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2019 (edited) And here's the other book, Shock Suspenstories #9. A great first issue of the title to start with, I think. Bradbury's "The October Game", "Came the Dawn", and "Carrion Death".
