One other guy and I (likely a boardie) popped the price up a little higher than I was hoping. Sometimes I can't help but post them right away here. I literally have no one in my life that cares except for the people here. My wife does whatever the opposite of "caring about comics" is. Roger Dodger has a Leroy story by DeCarlo inside. I'm not sure who did the rest of the book but it is has a DeCarlo flair to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgie was published in 1950. The artwork was modified just a bit to make the man who was previously Georgie look a bit older: I never thought I'd find a copy of this one so I was pretty thrilled when I did! The Joker issue is digest sized. I just enlarged the scan to make it comparable. Very cool Peter Driben cover! Anybody know if he did any more comic book covers? He did a lot of great pin-up work in magazines such as these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a little research on Google and it appears he may have illustrated the cover to Prison Break #3: And also possibly Venus #8: He also did many covers for Timely's magazine versions of Joker, Comedy and others. If you look carefully enough, you'll find his signature in this one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lotemo Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 I was scanning some books so I thought I'd post some Irma's. This copy of #3 was graded a 7.0 but CGC indicated it was trimmed. It's got a cover miswrap and an irregular cut but it seems about the same size as my lower grade copy. I couldn't resist buying it because the paper is otherwise snow white so I don't really care if it was trimmed: Here's #4 (#2) I've always loved this cover: And finally, another DeCarlo swimsuit cover.

sagii Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Been a while since i showed some DC love: They were not known for the GGA covers, but some come close. This in my eyes is one. Subject that was used on Archie and just about all the Teen Humor titles: The reluctant pageant judge. path4play 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
