Robot Man Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Amazing how cheap Planet Stories are compared to Planet Comics. Now, due to the great equalizer, graded, slabbed copies, I expect that gap to slowly start coming closer together. At the end of the day when all you have is the cover anyway… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lpsunburst Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Love Harry Parkhurst covers, very much in same style as St. John. Pat Calhoun and waaaghboss 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Ricksneatstuff Posted April 25 Popular Post Share Posted April 25 I picked up a very nice set of Planet Stories recently. Working on completing a true F/VF or better run. Getting very close. Darwination, Robot Man, asimovpulps and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting very close. Smart move, get them while you can. I have always thought them cheap when compared to their comic cousins. These are really starting to take off in my area. jimjum12 and Ricksneatstuff 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Hap Hazard Posted May 10 Author Popular Post Share Posted May 10 Been wanting to try this for a while, took a pic of my complete run of Planet Stories 71 issues. Not easy to do took this in garage on a small ladder a bit blurry and some of the plastic bags reflected the light. You can see most of them, Maybe I'll try it again with a taller ladder! Many grades on these books goods to fines finished this run at least a decade ago. waaaghboss, Darwination, OtherEric and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could nearly duplicate the bottom 2/3 but the top 1/3 is mostly absent from my collection so far. And thanks for the reminder, I just ordered one of the two issues I'm still missing in the bottom 2/3 waaaghboss and Point Five 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure the flamethrower cover was bumping the demand on this one slightly: Surfing Alien, waaaghboss, Pat Calhoun and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OtherEric Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 And this one in today. I've got everything from V2 N11, Summer 1945, up now. But only 5 of the first 22 issues. Pat Calhoun and Surfing Alien 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
