selegue Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 (edited) Aquaman 2 and 4 moved to Big Box 12¢ thread. Jack Edited January 25, 2008 by selegue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind Owl Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 A couple of early Aquaman issues, putting me only 9 issues from a full run. Nice to have a couple of the tough ones out of the way. Respectable reader copies, solid enough for me despite some structural problems. A buck for #4 earns no complaint from me, and (everyone please roll your eyes in unison) I like those ridiculous Silver Age sidekicks like Quisp, Zook and Cryll. Jack Nice copies Jack!!! I'm currently bidding on a couple of Aquaman books this week!!! I love the Cardy cover issues!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzutak Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Although I normally like my covers clean, I've always been especially fond of DC's "5000 Prize Contest" issues that appeared on the stands during the summer of 1956. The condition is most likely the result of some prenatal trauma that only a skilled psychotherapist would understand, so bear with me here ......

AtlasFan Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 (edited) Sounds like you have a whole new sub-genre: DC "Giant 5000 Prize Contest" issues! I agree that I don't find this too distracting to the cover at all. DC tried again with those "Free Ice Cream" coupons as well. I'm just glad that this trend didn't continue. What I did find offensive were some of the cover ads that Charlton had in the late 50' ... putting ad blurbs on some of those Ditko covers was like putting bumper stickers over the Mona Lisa...SHEESH!
