Thanks ! Actually the Germans had experimented with flying wings toward the end of WWII. Read up on the Horten Ho. They designed some aspects of it to escape radar detection. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horten_Ho_229 Edited April 18, 2017 by Buzzetta 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justin Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Yes, the cover, and also the fight scene between Wolverine and Silver Samurai is one of the best drawn fight scenes in all of comics IMO. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer it to be original finish, but it looks like a clean paint job, so I'd be content to leave it be if it was just for my personal collection.

It's great stuff. I have a great deal of love and appreciation for Cockrum and Byrne, but Paul Smith will always be MY X-Men artist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I haven't raced out to have it restored i guess because I'm trying to decide if I like it or not. 5 hours ago, Buzzetta said: Looks like he did a neat job so it may be better off that way. If you use any type of paint remover you may also take off the varnish on the metal which could lead to more problems down the road. Leave it as is and fill it with 80's comics. Everything back then was neon greens. I had a pair of converse skateboarding sneakers that were neon green and neon blue. Makes me wonder how it would look as an Avacado green. Yeah, if I do end up trying to restore it I'll go to someone who does this kind of thing for a living. I'm not qualified to attempt it myself. 1 hour ago, F For Fake said: Same.

Just pondering over resteration as an option. nepatkm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do; most of it will go but I wanted the CM Jr, and he made the one book vs whole pile a no-brainer. But the Marvel Tales will be a fun read before they go, as will the LEOG. Never saw that on before. nepatkm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
