tth2 Posted February 4, 2007 Author Share Posted February 4, 2007 Nice varying purple/magenta tones on this fairly scarce cover: I love the fact that the new Batman and Robin each has a big Roman numeral II on their chests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffro. Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 This looks like a job for Superm.... err.....the Human Torch. Ken WTF???? Only strenghtens my theory that DC had some substance abusing beatniks writing for them in the 50's. Oh yeah, now I HAVE to find a copy of that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamstrange Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 Adam, Yes, it is the WM copy. I was fortunite to get a few of my favorite Strange Adventures from this collection and had to pay quite a premium for them, but they are so hard to find in nice shape. Ken When you're buying from Marnin... But in this case I doubt I could have resisted either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelcity Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Very unusual dark green tones on Adventure Comics #235. Not surprising that this issue rarely turns up above a fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelcity Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Adventure Comics #242 is one of my very favorite covers from this title. Something exciting often happens when the Kents are in the garden. Martha relaxing at her needlework, Jonathan gently working the ground, Clark hanging about - often worryingly conspicuous in his Superboy costume. The scene is set! This cover was re-worked for Adventure Comics #260. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
