It is a hard run to complete.

The reason I asked is the images you post look to be scanned from actual comics.

Thanks for the cover-to-cover Planets! For anyone who's interested, there are a couple good sources where these books can be read in their 4-color majesty -- Comic Book Plus online, and the "Roy Thomas Presents" PS art book series.  GG, have you checked out those sources?

I scanned my Planet Comics 15 in response to the request for it by PS Artbooks.

Strong work, Artboy!! I did wonder how PS Artbooks had compiled all those issues. IMHO the color reproduction was not so hot on the first couple volumes.

I guess I partly answered my question to GG. The interior pages for Planet #5 that GG posted on the GRR are from the ComicBook Plus copy of the book online (e.g., compare first splash page from Nelson Cole story).

I am still looking for a decent unrestored copy of #6.   I have a nice looking restored copy, but its the only restored copy in my run.

Such a nice copy of an underrated book, which is as scarce as #15 IMHO.

 

How is that only a 6.5?

What a fabulous book you've got! Grade seems a bit harsh for such a small split, but whadda I know.

Mine is almost as nice as artboy's copy - I was lucky to get it before I even realized it was a scarce 'un

"almost as nice"? Looks pretty sweet to me. Better grade as well.
