JohnT Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 A recent Ebay pickup that's a little early to be considered Silver Age (1954), but what the heck. Curt Swan cover. Love the colors and the composition of this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the colors and the composition of this one. I like Curt Swan's art from this time period -- less stiff than his later work. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtlasFan Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Grail aquired!!! Finally, after many years of searching for a nice copy, I have one of my Kirby grails...RACE FOR THE MOON #2. This issue has a really cool (and rare) Kirby/Williamson cover and a fantastic story..."The Face on Mars". I wonder if this is where Richard Hoagland got the idea....

Never heard of it, but that's a sweet cover. Congrats on a ending a long search! Overstreet has the following to say about it: "Kirby/Williamson-c®/a(3); Kirby -p 7 more stys." To which I reply: "Huh?" Any idea what all that means? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasFan Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I will take a wack at it... This issue has a cover and 3 stories with Kirby pencils & Williamson inks, with an additional 7 pages of Kirby art that were not inked by Williamson. Only thing that puzzles me is the "®". I would think that means a reprint, but I believe this is all original material. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasFan Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Just in time for Christmas...another GRAIL!!! A great book with a wonderful Moreria cover and art...one of the most underrated Silver Age keys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnT Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Just in time for Christmas...another GRAIL!!! A great book with a wonderful Moreria cover and art...one of the most underrated Silver Age keys. Congrats! Yes, it's underrated, but I have yet to find a midgrade copy under guide, so it's not necessarily overlooked. Of the 13 early SA tryout features (in Showcase or Brave and the Bold) that went on to get their own magazines, Rip Hunter was one of the earliest, predating Green Lantern, Hawkman, Atom, and others. It was also one of the coolest ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etanick Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 nothing special but i didn't realize I have these 2 books all these years and I don't even remember how or where I got them. The cover on 83 is 80% split so it won't take much to fall apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
