For some time, I was going in that direction...following my natural completist bent into the motorcycle cover arena. However, I think I've now decided that it's OK to not get them all...I can just have some of my favorites, and let some issues fall by the wayside. It's cathartic...like, I realize that I don't have to complete the "GA Motorcycle Cover" run in order to get satisfaction from that collecting strand. I'm still coming to full terms with it, though. It's a good psychological exercise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good psychological exercise... In other words, you're admitting to being a total loser? Actually, I know the feeling full well. I've been acquiring high-grade Four Colors, telling myself that I'm absolutely, positively NOT going to attempt that gargantuan run. Just the covers that sing to me. Then I find myself eyeing a high-grade copy of an issue with a really lame cover .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good psychological exercise... After motorcycles I moved to football covers, never dreamed of having them all of either but still find myself picking up stuff. Then there is just stuff I'm attached to GGA, robots, ummm Schomburg. Now trying to complete small early runs (#2-11 for example) of GA big 6 superheros (coverless). I'm all over the place.

skypinkblu Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 I never thought about this as a motor cycle cover. The Cap, I knew was considered one (not that it mattered to me.

EC ed Posted August 10, 2017 Share Posted August 10, 2017 (edited) Here's a recent pickup...now the earliest motorcycle cover I own (barely edging out Detective Comics #16 by a couple months). Actually, now that I think about it, I can't think of any motorcycle cover that pre-dates this one...is this the first ever comic-cover appearance of a motorcycle?

That and the Famous Funnies were at the Long Beach con. I know who bought them and put them on the bay. Better look at them real close to make sure they are complete... Hope so. I almost bought it at the con but the chew kind of bothered me so I let it go. Cool book! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
