Battle Cry is a great title. waaaghboss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darwination Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 (edited) Yeah, I dunno. I see some water damage at upper left corners and maybe some light gnawing or wear at the bottom left corners. Wherever they were kept, it wasn't toooo nice of a locale. 22 copies of a random Battle Cry just might saturate the market I'm seeing a weird price swing upwards in the sweats, but I really haven't watched them very closely. The weird menace/torture cover lovers used to be the only ones that would really shell out. Imagine it's still true to some extent. I'm hunting some again, so this is one of my favorite threads on the boards right now.

Darwination Posted October 14, 2023 Share Posted October 14, 2023 (edited) All y'all with your beautiful, shiny magazines shouldn't have invited me to the party A very cheap trio I got in this week, curious about this Charlton title. Happily the lot included the v01n01 and second issue as well. Kind of an interesting sweat. All war stories and mostly photography, but there does seem to be at least one art splash per, and one of the issues has a few. It ran for eight issues in all.

Apart from the rendering, I love the fact that the hunter is evidently stalking a person whose footprints are visible in the snow. Imagine turning around to find a stalking tiger right behind you!

Darwination Posted October 25, 2023 Share Posted October 25, 2023 New ones.

Axe Elf Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Wish I could find a bigger/better image of this, but it caught my eye and my fancy anyway... I bet some of you collectors can produce the original mag satired here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darwination Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 New one. Picked it up after posting an old scan of that previous issue up above hoping for more nice splashes (I think it's one of three in the series with one of these "come-on" covers which I'm always fond of). Only 2 art splashes and neither very good. The smoking blonde will have to do. This is one of those magazines where there was a piece dangling in the eBay photo that shows up missing (triangle upper right). Funny how often that happens. Scanning copy, though, and like ten bucks incl. shipping, no tears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darwination Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Yeah, it's gotta be Betty! That issue has a Harlan Ellison story in it. It looks like most of the other issues have many Robert Silverberg stories by various pen names. It's kind of an odd run, maybe a little bit more transgressive than other MAMs of the era and seems to command higher prices than your average title. I stuck an old scan of the next issue up here: https://archive.org/details/exotic-adventures-v-01n-03-1958.-gladiator-darwination-mc-coy-ia https://www.mediafire.com/file_premium/4dl52tb7jll9lqr/Exotic_Adventures_v01n03_%28c.1959.Gladiator%29%28Darwination-McCoy%29.cbr/file A splash from this one I found funny for a Silverberg story: mrwoogieman and ThothAmon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
