torontodesignguy Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share Posted January 31, 2018 (edited) and now for one of the bigger books in the thread.... Fight Against Crime 20 $ 800 ---- sold! missing centrefold, name and address writer on 1st page The tear visible by the bottom staple goes through the first half of the book, and about 1/4” goes through all pages and can be seen on the scan of the back cover. Pages are supple. Another book that I may have paid too much for - but a chance to get it under $1k made it too tempting for me I've missed out on a couple coverless - which has frustrated my efforts to marry this book up Edited January 31, 2018 by torontodesignguy bounty_coder 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Readcomix Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Every time I see that Crime Mysteries 5 I think of the silver/bronze sub-mariner series. At some point, there was a supporting character in there who was a blonde-haired red-skinned woman among all the blue Atlanteans. I forget her deal, but I keep thinking the artist was inspired by this book from his childhood. Anybody else recall the character I'm referring to?

For me the Green Girl cover reminds me of this character on the OST (original Star Trek for us geeks), who btw was the same actress who played Batgirl in the campy 60's Batman series torontodesignguy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
