Having just read through a couple of other threads around here, I think I'd rather hang out in a place where someone (correctly) thinks that a Lassie #20 is a great find.

 

And I know there's (now) a SF thread, but these are just the epitome of Atom Age, so I'll post it in its spiritual home.

I'm no exobiologist, but I really have to wonder how useful flippers are in that enviroment... lol

I like it and this may be the closest you'll get to an EC "duck" book.

D-Wad, here's another you should appreciate I picked up at the same time. I paid more than I normally would (plus it's a HRN 51), but I didn't have a copy and it was bugging me. Do you have a nice copy you can post?

Thanks for the Hartman info Scrooge. I like the Lassie also. I'll have to get some of those.

Here are a couple of my Hartman's I recently cracked out of holders but haven't read yet.

Good stuff! I like to hear stories of collectors who MANUP and crack 'em open so that they can actually flip through their treasures.

 

Great comics too!

 

(thumbs u

Excellent copies of those two Lone Ranger's damonwad. :headbang:

Not too mention the information provided on Harman by Scrooge. It's always interesting to get more in depth information on the creative talent behind the comics. (thumbs u

 

I have a story to relate on Clayton Moore, who played the Lone Ranger in the 50's TV Show. I did not know it at the time, but he lived in Golden Valley MN from 1965 to the early 70's if I recall correctly. See the link below on how Clayton assisted after a robbery occurred at the Golden Valley shopping center. I lived in G.V. from 1959 to 1971, but never did get to meet Clayton Moore. :sorry:

Another link to Clayton Moore, who also appeared in movie serials featuring The The Perils of Nyokia, "Richard" or "D" Tracy Returns, and Zorro before starring in the Lone Ranger TV show.

I like this one, less "hairy" than the original. I don't have one yet though. The way out of my league Church 9.8 is in the Feb Heritage auction.

I usually crack em out, but I must confess that I have about 20 books in slabs. I've read or have downloads from Digital Comic Museum on all but 8. I'll eventually get downloads or under copies of those.

 

 

That's a great article on Clayton Moore, frozentundraguy.

AJD,

 

The flippers must double as fans to keep cool. zzz:cool:lol

 

Neat book by the way, thus far I have only a few of the early 90's reprints for Weird Science.
