Weird Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Ack! That GI 245 DOLLAR COMIC!!!!!!! Must seek it. Dang you for expanding my DC BA to this title. That's what I'm saying. Definitely looks like a WWT cover to me This one looks like a Weird War one to me as well: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Nice. That's one of those books that I don't have, but want to get just so I can find out the what the cover is about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weird Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 GI Combat #147 Jim That is a nice copy for a white cover. I don't see any tanning or anything even around the edges. What's the page quality like on that book? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tth2 Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Great cover, Matt. I remember well a conversation I had with a WWII vet, complaining about the devaluation of medals that started in Vietnam and has continued to this day: "A Bronze Star used to mean something, you had to do something outstanding to win one! I swear they started handing them out in Vietnam for making your bed everyday, every damn officer that did a tour of duty there got one, whether they were worth a damn or not. You know what a medal that everyone has is worth? Not a whole damn lot!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

takeyourlemons Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I bought G.I. Combat off the shelves for a very short time 222-229 or so. I dug these out and was surprised that despite the fact I didn't bag/board these until several years ago that they all look minty fresh. Nothing great about these, just contributing...

takeyourlemons Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 One of the cool things I remembered when digging these out is that for a short while DC used the back cover to showcase tanks--no Daisy BB Gun ad! It started with #224. If anyone can submit scans of subsequent back covers that would be cool! #224 #225 #226 #227 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weird Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 That issue and US 252 are the two war books I remember having when I was younger. I think I got them from older cousins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weird Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 (edited) Our Army At War 279, I think page 13 (has a "20" on it) by Russ Heath. My only Sgt. Rock piece of original art (and I don't even have the book yet ). If someone has some Kubert stuff, I would love to see it. A Rock action page by Kubert is right at the top of my OA want list.

Stronguy Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I've got about 40 pages of OSS out of GI Combat. It's nothing spectacular but I still dig it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
