Perhaps 2 of Kirby's greatest 50's covers...

 

Those are great covers...and I hope to own a run of Bullseye someday...but I am rather partial to this one.

 

 

Oh, Wrightson fan, why do you torment me so with your perfect copy of FIGHTING AMERICAN #1

[Wrightson fan]

Because I am evil.................ba ha ha ha ha............ha ha............haaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!

 

Evil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Like those Kirby covers!

[Weird Paper]

Like those Kirby covers!

That's the one I need to complete the set.

[AtlasFan]

WOW! Just look at all those colors...just as colorful as the BULLSEYE cover.

 

Those mid-50's covers S&K did for PRIZE are some of the best covers ever done!

# 1 is the only issue I miss from that short run.

 

Great sets you have there (thumbs u

[rjpb]

I was never a fan of Andru & Eposito on "serious" comics - but I rather like them as a hunor comics team.

[AtlasFan]

Speaking of Kirby, here are a couple issues of that oriental devil ..The Yellow Craw

[AtlasFan]

Another favotite Atlas title...

 

[rjpb]

Very nice!

[AtlasFan]

Here are some super-nice copies of Atlas' SGT BARNEY BARKER...the Atlas answer to Sgt Bilko..great art by Severin.

 

Severin based the fast-talking Barker not only on Bilko, but on Stan Lee - who looks alot like the Sarge!

 

Anyone got a nice #2 ?

 

Psst..I am also looking for nice copies (F or better) of SAILOR SWEENEY 12-14...thanks,

Bill

I discovered this interesting thread a few days ago and have read every post. I too love the obscure books from the "lost age," especially the superhero, western, war, romance, etc.

 

I don't own a ton of them but I'll post a few.

 

First up is my favorite Toth cover. The pure dynamism of the frozen leap, as well as the great colors and the pretty damsel in the window...all tough to beat.

Does humor qualify in this thread? Don't remember, but here's one anyway...

I love red, white and blue Atom Age DCs!

Fell in love with this cover the first moment I saw it. I love river scenes, and the purples and Fess Parker round out the package.
