buttock 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. For the DC lovers these are tough .10 cent issues to find in high grade. Thanks for looking, Rube Gaaah! That's incredible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the DC lovers these are tough .10 cent issues to find in high grade. Thanks for looking, Rube Thought I'd show my appreciation for you other two books. Early Flash are hard to find in grade.

deathlok Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I just bought this today from a local shop. Kinda beat up, and I probably paid more than it was worth. I love the tank cover on it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted May 4, 2007 Author Share Posted May 4, 2007 Nice pick-up! That old clunker on the cover should remind you of your M-60s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 JO 41: I'd never seen that cover (like most JO's in fact) but it's fun. Is Lucy a throw-away character or part of the regular cast? I'm not familiar with her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selegue Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 JO 41: I'd never seen that cover (like most JO's in fact) but it's fun. Is Lucy a throw-away character or part of the regular cast? I'm not familiar with her. Lois Lane's little sister, a "stewardess" as they used to be called, Jimmy's long-term love interest. Their relationship, usually built around making one another jealous and "teaching the other one a lesson", was almost as twisted as Lois's and Clark's. Good ol' Uncle Mort. Wikipedia entry has lots of post-1970 information that I didn't know about. That cover just invites wisecracks, right? From Jimmy O being "all hands" around Lucy (with a nod to Velvet Underground's "The Gift"), to Amazing Spider-Man 100 prototype. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, almost interchangeable except for the hair color and style -- even Lana. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Awesome VG book AND I like the cover itself. Jack: Thanks for the Superman education. My only knowledge of Supes' universe is from the Smallville show and it bears no resemblance (sp?) to the comics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selegue Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 It's the cover showing how Superman LEARNED to be a ! (What was the rationale for Jor-El picking his kid's dog? Pound was closed?)
