When we get to 10 pages I'll sit down and do a list in the first post of which books we have in the thread

Very nice!

Nice one Todd. Did you get the roll-over tank?

WOW! This is such a sweet spot in the Action run. The energy on these covers is fantastic. Can you imagine the fun of going to the newstand and picking up a new white paged issue each month. Great stuff!

I am glad to see these found a good home, Twistty

I had some time in my hotel room today, so I did the tally so far.

 

Of these early (not earliest) Action Comics we have now collectively covered about a third of the run. 34 issues, however, we have not even a single book for.

 

Looking at it - it looks like there is a clear overrepresentation of higher grades on our board (compared to the market). I didn't check the census - are any of these books the highest on record?

 

Also, two issues stand out 31 and 40 as being more present amongst us. Also it seems that we lack books in the 60ties and 70ties.

I don't think I've ever seen that 61 before like this. Nice colors

Great stuff, Sqeggs. (thumbs u

 

The cover to #61, and the classic war covers in the #60s posted above, are by the amazing Jack Burnley. What's quite underrated are some of the interior stories he drew earlier in the run, circa #33-35 or so (not sure how many there were). Here's a dazzling Burnley interior page from Action #33. I think Lois has rarely looked better, and the linework and even the lettering are just beautiful.

Beautiful drawing of Lois I agree. Hey...we don't have a 33...put it up if you have it

Fair enough!
