Popular Post southern cross Posted July 16 Popular Post Share Posted July 16 I like ECs but there are other books I like and it's a case of finite money and way more cool books from so many eras to buy. I do like the EC hardcover reprints. I do own 3 original examples and that's ok with me. vaultkeeper, Frisco Larson, adamstrange and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Ghastly542454 Posted July 17 Popular Post Share Posted July 17 I was absolutely thrilled 😁 when I received an email from My Comic Shop yesterday notifying me that they had one of my long time wants-this beautiful 😍 copy of Two-Fisted Tales #19!! There are only 26 graded copies on the CGC Census. This is the highest graded non-Gaines file copy. Twelve of the 26 copies on the CGC Census are Gaines File copies which range from 8.5-9.6. My undercopy , a 4.0, will soon 🔜 be for sale. Tri-Color Brian, andy49, KirbyJack and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirbyJack Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 That’s a beauty! Not a book you see a lot, as ECs go. Raze, Ghastly542454 and Robot Man 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BitterOldMan Posted July 25 Popular Post Share Posted July 25 Here is the table of contents and a page with our host, the "Grave-Digger." Back in 1982, I helped dig up my step-grandfather's long decayed corpse, but that is a story for another time.

My favorite one is probably the "up up and away" variant and then probably the 1:100 variant that costs $100+, followed by the SDCC "free"/"Fan Addict Edition" (appropriate for this thread), but this cover is probably next in line.

Not sure what those look like, other than the 1:100 variant. I've got a few variants on the way, and my store should have pulled the basic book for me. I'll have thoughts this weekend when I finally get my hands on a copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still wouldn't mind getting a copy, mind you. Definitely understand that. I like that cover simply because I think of SOTI, Wertham, and the corruption of kids' minds that he saw when I see it. lol. Cruel Universe and Epitaphs from the Abyss have some nice homage covers I definitely will be getting. It's a shame the 1:100 variant is so expensive - I would've loved to have it. Who knows - maybe in the future I'll be able to get it (a lot) cheaper. But at those prices, I think I'll pass. OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that matter, not overwhelmed by the 1:20. I suspect the 1:10 will end up more valuable than either the 1:20 or 1:50, assuming the book is successful enough than any of them wind up holding value.

BitterOldMan Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 1:100 cover. Not worth it unless you really love the cover. For the price, you can buy an original EC comic. Telegan, Jayman, Robot Man and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
