Silver Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Okay, we are halfway through the JO 10 cent run, Here is 29. This book has the story that introduced Krypto into Superman stories. Up until this point Krypto had only been used in Superboy stories. In this issues an aged Krypto (aided by Superman's Pal) goes through a fountain of youth and is restored to a young dog. From this point forward Krypto is used in a number of Superman stories. It's interesting to note that on the Krypto the Super-Dog cartoon series the writers made it so that Krypto went into suspended animation and arrived on Earth many years after Kal-El, showing up when he was Superman...therefore never belonging to Superboy.

Silver Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 wow....no one posted in a couple days? Jimmy got you all that riveted? Okay, back on a short break between trips....here's Jimmy 33. A note on some of these issues. I was buying them before the Internet played into collecting...these were supposed to be fine or better....a good thing scanners came around, eh? Well....some of these are just so hard to find in that condition, that I just kept them hoping to upgrade someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inaflash Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Can't let Danny carry all the weight in this thread. Just cracked this beauty out this morning. I bought it as a 7.0 in the last Comiclink auction and to me it looks like a solid 8.0. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rube11 Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Hi guys and gals, I rarely post anything new in the collection but was pretty excited about these coming in today.
