Popular Post TrevorP24 Posted April 8, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 8, 2019 I went looking for a club for this awesome rare book, and couldn't find one so I thought I would start it up. I'm interested to see how many boardies have a copy of this one! This is undervalued in my opinion. First appearance of Sir Percy, the original Black Knight First appearance of the Ebony Blade, a legacy weapon that is among the most powerful in the marvel universe. First appearance of Morgan Le Fay These significant first appearances combined with the rarity, puts this as a key book. Here are my copies of #1 and #2. These are hard to find in any condition. I'd like to complete the set at some point. 1950's war comics, RockMyAmadeus, Unca Ben and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TrevorP24 Posted April 8, 2019 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 8, 2019 @ bc Joe Maneely art is amazing. It is a pity he died so young. He could have been who everybody talked about alongside Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko. Readcomix, bc, aardvark88 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mucheee1 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I don't think I have ever run across issues 4 or 5, didn't even know what the covers looked like. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockMyAmadeus Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 So much great stuff Atlas put out in the 50s. It's a really underrated time period for the company, in my view. Readcomix, bc and TrevorP24 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

*Bronze age fan* Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 What’s up bro??? Thanks for the kind link!!! I have been taking it real slow, picking up stuff here and there, but no where near what I was doing before. The idea of a complete Atlas run is to huge and expensive to wrap my head around. Haha Wish I would have attempted that years ago. The Black Knight #1 was a comic I always liked. Picked that up in 2017. Your collection is insane with the grades your scoring. Many props man! I enjoy seeing new posts from you with your acquisitions. bc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Lou 14 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Great idea for a thread! I have toyed with the idea of hunting down this issue, and maybe even trying to assemble the entire five-issue run. You've inspired me to step up my game a bit and do a little more searching around!

Popular Post RICK STARR Posted April 11, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 11, 2019 I think you'all might enjoy this one. This was from the Toronto collection a number of years ago. I also picked up some nice Atlas westerns from that collection. It is the highest graded copy, so far.
