Centaur Comics 19 19

great everett cover.....

 

 

How often do I hear those words going together...

 

Everett was good from day one that he started working in comics.

[Scrooge]

That book is in incredible condition.

 

Not bad for a 2001 replica I'd say.

Another of the rare Centaur digests:

 

All black & white inside, mostly traditional comic stories with a few illustrated text features. Fun book.

CM, is that the copy that just sold on ebay?

 

STEVE (Luvin' Larson)

[CentaurMan]

Yup. Anyone know who marvelmys9 is? He got the Little Giant #1 despite my hellacious snipe. I'd like to trade him some very, very cool stuff for that book.

[CentaurMan]

A nifty early Everett cover. Does the look of the artwork inside the near cockpit look grey tone to you, Ryan?

 

Guess the pedigree, win a no-prize.

Cosmic Aeroplane?

say centaurman... isn't about time you ditched the dc avatar in the name of consistency?

I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MUCH SEEING THIS SCAN MAKES ME WANT THIS BOOK...

 

That is in incredible book CM!!! Did you mention somewhere it was a recent purchase? Absolutely stunning. That could be THE best Everett Sci-Fi cover from that era! What beautiful line work.

 

Greytone? I don't think so... looks like black ink without any other color passes over it. True greytone would have a visible "texture" to it, like the AMF 2/5 cover, with the fine mechanical lines or cross hatching. Of course, I wouldn't know for sure, never having OWNED these books...

 

Would be curious to know more about this issue of AMF... what IS the pedigree?

[CentaurMan]

I got it from Metro recently, with big thanks to Stephen for knowing what I was looking for and helping me find it. Those guys deserve more credit than I usually give them.

 

It's the Cosmic Aeroplane copy (as correctly guessed above by RHG). Full of interior marks pointing out which panels were to be drawn.

[sacentaur]

<pssst...CentaurMan. Let's post our pedigree copies together over in the Greedy SOB thread and really drive RyanH nuts!!>

Dang!! Can't think of anything snappy to say...

 

However , Steve, you have succeeded in making me squirm!

The figure work and posing of the two spacemen in the foreground is spectacular. I just missed on the Church copy when it was on ebay a number of years back.

So what do I win, one of your copies of New Comics #2?

[sacentaur]

As threatened - uh, I mean promised - here come the Larson copies of Keen Detective Funnies 18 through 22. Enjoy...
