Here ya go...If you find one in VF or better you know who to call.

[Silver Surfer]

Thanks for the pic. So far I haven't even been able to find a copy.

[rjpb]

Buttock - if you find a VF copy I'll gladly take that one off your hands.

[Scrooge]

Ask and you shall receive...

Thank You Dan!! (worship)

 

You put a big smile on my face.

 

 

 

I got mine back from 143ksk yesterday at Chicago. I missed the book while it was away

[Scrooge]

This book is easily my favorite purchase at Chicago

Very pretty!

 

I accidentally posted this on the Timely thread last night. How did I miss seeing this Atlas thread, where it belongs?

 

A nice-looking War Comics 14, December 1952 (what a great month), just in from a trade with Scrooge.

 

 

Fairly violent pre-code war book with plenty of commies and yellow menace. Probably a Brodsky cover, and the last story is by Maneely.

Very pretty!

 

I'll have more "pretty" later

 

Along with the War 23, 143ksk allowed me to buy back another Heath war cover in Navy Action # 4, the under-water submarine scene. Thanks Steve and I added another Heath companion to keep company to the Navy Action # 4, Navy Action # 2, another superb effort for Heath and the colors <3

 

It's very possible to have fun with this hobby without having to spend $$$$ as Jack would put it, and that's why I love it!

[CAP Freak]

Sweet Colors on the second one, Scrooge!

 

This is now my favorite thread!

You're certainly proving it with these recent Atlas purchases of Everett (Lorna) and Heath art!

[dannyboy]

Well, I put it up for sale so I suppose the least I could do was post it here.

Thank you.

 

A couple more Chicago pick-ups by that Eve-something guy. Not in the nicest shape but for the right price there is plenty I am willing to ignore ...

[Scrooge]

... and these Lornas by other hands -

It took me awhile, but I finally nailed one of my longtime "Dark age" Kirby Grails!

I usually don't bid on Heritage auctions, but I could not resist this one.

 

From 1957, a Kirby tour-de-force (3 stories) of the almost forgotten western hero: The BLACK RIDER. This is Kirby at his late-50's best. Lots of those great inset circular panels that seem to show up when Kirby really seemed to care about the story (such as in the early issues of Challengers of the Unknown).

 

The cover below is my scan. The interior pics are links from the Kirbymuseum.org website.

Scrooge

 

Congrats on all the Lorna pick-ups.

Have you noticed any difference between the pre-code and post-code Lorna's?

Nice Black Rider - is it a tough book?

Congrats on all the Lorna pick-ups.

I have read them in depth, just skimmed through them and didn't notice much of a difference. In fact, I made that remark to my wife that Lorna is a great title because the Code didn't impact its content. And, yes, she listened! She's some sort of a saint

Nice Black Rider - is it a tough book?

 

Why I've been looking for a nice VF/better copy for about 10 years. It is indeed a very tough book in grade.
