We should put together a list of high profile Marvel characters on Alan covers and see who else is conspicuous by their absence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batmiesta Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 Got a couple in nice shape which seems to be a bit of a rarity for these sized books. Frisco Larson, mikeyc67 and Get Marwood & I 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That decimal cross over price is cool isn't it. And you're right, they're getting harder to find in good shape and reasonably priced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Struggling to think of any 60’s superhero characters who didn’t appear. Nearest I can think of - Submariner who I believe only appeared in creepy worlds reprints of FF#4 and 6.

Garystar Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 I saved this link someone posted previously, probably robot; https://archive.org/details/photo-journal-guide-to-alan-class-comics/page/2/mode/2up Cap America only appeared on covers as part of Avengers but a few of his TOS stories are included in non-marvel cover issues.

mikeyc67 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 I think a few will be problematic - Uncanny Tales 3 and 21 which are and/or expensive. Most have picked up last year or so for under £10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyc67 Posted April 28, 2021 Share Posted April 28, 2021 That would certainly be the one to have! There is one on ebay for £380 plus shipping from US just now but can't bring myself to spend that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the prices I paid back in 2007 (from my old Spidey Completist log): And those prices for the certificated copies were pushing it. Imagine what the 'replacement' prices would be today Frisco Larson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
