Do you buy non superhero GA books like pre Bats Detective famous funnies, Four color, crime stuff, war stories, funny strips aka Torchy, Archie etc? I'd like to hear and see from you you hide too much

Quite the strong resemblance to Betty and Reggie.

True, although Betty has about 50 IQ points on Pearl

Look around the GA forum, there are plenty of people who collect non superhero books.

[143ksk]

Yup, there's threads for Archie, Dan DeCarlo, Teen Humor, Ducks, Harvey, Dennis the Menace etc, etc.

Lots of funny and funny animals, still waitng for the crime and sci fi peeps to chime in.

Here is one of mine...

I talk about Planets whenever I get the chance (and I know people have posted some Planet covers) and I think there have been a few love-ins about the EC Science Fiction stuff.

 

We've also definitely ooohed and aaaahed over the Planet #1 cover original art.

[mstryinspc-migration]

My favorite Planet covers are 2 and 5 and 47-55 33 is good and 39 is a classic too. I just took a look at some real nice 19,20,22,25 issues 5.5-7.0 but those covers I did not like as much. I like the Crime Does Not Pay stuff myself as well as the EC Crime Patrol and War against Crime. War Comics are always a laugh to read especially issue of Battle during the Korean war with all the communist conspiracy theory stories.

I like the Crime Does Not Pay stuff

Next to horror, Crime is my concentration. Very nice Crimebusters you got there, too!

 

Do a Search on the GA forum for say the past year - enter Crime in the Subject Only section. You'll find a lot there.

143ksk - Let me know when you get tired of owning that book. Although not too soon - I need to start working again.

Western Crime Busters is a differrent book this is Four Color #23 Series 1 not the later DC Gang Busters book, they start in 1948.

I had once had the cash out for the Church copy of this I think it was $500 but I couldn't bring myself to do it it was a few weeks earnings for my 16 year old self and I coudn't do another of my five or six big Church collection reegrets of the early 80's. how many homes could I have bought with the stuff I passed on from the Church collection alone I shudder to think.

Lets not forget the war stuff like this

Very cool book!

I am known to read dog books - I prefer Rinty to Lassie, you know rugged-type dog versus pampered-type dog, well the RinTinTin adventures are more outdoorsy and more interesting. Rex is generally out of my (willing) price range so I can pass no judgment on him. Here's Rin Tin Tin # 16 -

Like the Dell non cowboy photo cover!

I don't care for horse books though - no Silver nor Trigger for me. Still, I do like the right kind of mouse - the Mighty Mouse. Here's a Timely comic - Terry-Toons 42
