The Undead Thread: Pre-Code Horror 21 21

Yeah, I know #2 is not the best, but I do want #1-7, as they are all GREAT covers (Except #2 ) And I had a #2 when I was in high school, it was the earliest HOM I ever had until I got the #1, so it will be nice to have one again.

I see. That makes more sense. # 5 & 7 are cool covers. I like # 5 the best though.

 

# 2 is the Month issue. It pained me to buy it I share your

In the 80's & 90's #2 was considered to be one of the toughest 50's DCs, but more recent years have shown that to be false. Without that cachet it's just the #2 to a long running title. And an expensive one at that. #5 is great, as is #7, but I have a nostalgic attachment to #3, as it was my favorite GA book for Many years during my early years as a GA collector in the 1980's.

could you imagine that on the stands at the same time as FC386 though? That puts it in a pretty cool light. What would I have picked at the time...

My favorite HOM Covers are 28 and 37. So Cool.

[buttock]

I personally like the cover to 7 the best.

I never realized that HOM #9 is a swipe of Detective #130.

 

 

[shiverbones]

the tec is much better though. I love that cover while HOM #9 leaves me cold

[precodekeith]

the tec is much better though.

No question about it. Not that it needed anything "extra," but it is also kinda cool that 40 years give or take later there's a cool movie where Brad Pitt utters the infamous lines, "C'mon man. What's in the booooxxxxx??"

I believe Tomorrow's Treasures had/has a bunch of decent looking early HOMs on ebay. Those are some great issues. Ya gotta love Wanda on the cover of HOM #1.

He has quite a few pch books I would be interested in if it weren't for:

1. His bad rep here.

2. Prices seem, shall we say, "wishfull" on his end.

3. Almost every cover is described as "classic." Sure, I guess if your definition of classic is based on age over content.

Cross another one off the list!!!

Thinking about removing the stamp, though. What say the masses? May be risky, I dunno...

great cover on that one!

 

What do you want to see more? the stamp, or an "ugly" patch of paper pulls on the cover? You may get lucky and be able to remove it with out taking cover bits off, but it's risky. If you wet it first, it may come off easier, but also leave sticky residue after its off which will just cause more problems. Tough call...

[adamstrange]

That's one of my favorite covers in the run!

[Jayman]

Yeah, but it's Tomorows Treasures....

 

This was a TT purchase a while back with no resto or *conservation* that I'm totally happy with. (thumbs u

A fav cover of mine too! You could try this to remove the stamp, evaporates quickly but is very flamable so use in a well ventilated area.

Awesome looking book!

Thanks Matthew!

Just pointing out whatever your views on Tomorrows Treasures, he does offer full descriptions of what has been or not been done to his books.
