APDallas Posted December 13, 2021 Author Share Posted December 13, 2021 Thanks for all the great info. I am putting together a list of all the book here and will start the hunt once I get as much info as I can. I do know that MARVEL did a Beatles magazine back in the 1970's? Also, if I am not mistaken wasn't there a NOT BRAND EECH where they appear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something else I just noticed that has escaped me all these years is Ignatz the mouse in the left lower corner of the cover winding up to throw a brick from the old Krazy Kat cartoon strip.

This was released a month earlier in the first week of June 1964. After doing some more research, I found the photograph that the image of the Beatles in Betty and Veronica #104 was taken from. Notice Paul's cigarette was drawn out and/or covered up by the text. Point Five and archiecomicscollector 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's an image of my lowly 4.0 copy. That's a mighty fine looking 4.0! Mercy sure seems like it should be graded higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess to match John Lennon's white shoes! McCartney is the only one that is barefoot and with his right foot forward and Golden matched that up too with Colossus...

The four walking in line in that order is like a funeral procession, John in white leading the procession represented the clergy, Ringo dressed up in black represented the undertaker/mortician, Paul being out of step with the others and barefoot represented the one that was dead (it is a common practice to be buried without shoes), and George in the back in denim represented the grave digger.

namisgr Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 The back cover of Mad #90, with a publication date of October, 1964, has a satirical advertisement featuring Ringo and painted by Frank Frazetta: OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes! And the license plate on the white Volkswagon reads "28IF"... ie, that McCartney would have been 28 years old "IF" he were still alive! Think the Beatles had a lot of fun with that conspiracy theory... Jaylam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked this up raw at one of the New York City conventions many years ago and it was one of the first comics I submitted to CGC when it first opened up. It's neither pressed nor cleaned and for quite a while it was the highest graded copy... Ringo, Paul, George and Blonde!
