I've thought a lot about time, dedication and chance while going these Warrens, the time and dedication required to assemble a run like this, the pure chance involved in finding so many of the comics in this condition. That you could not pull that off in 2022 is irrelevant, I suppose: No one is trying. No one is on the lookout. Almost no one remembers the void the Warren comics filled in the late '60s among collectors who were alive when ECs when on the newsstand. The 145-issue run is a loud, brash, chaotic snapshot of what was possible in comics, from 1965 to 1983, when Archie Goodwin, Louise Jones or Bill DuBay were at the controls, offering space and a decent page rate to Frazetta, Williamson, Wrightson, Corben, Crandall and a bunch of wild Spaniards. I knew the original collector for the last 30 years of his life, and I'm sure he devoured the stories and their topless heroines, ever so gingerly, before setting the comics, in groups of 15, in brown paper bags, where they remained when he died. The ones I'm keeping will always have his name on the back of their mylar sleeve, because his name and his era and his passion for Sanjulian, Ken Kelly, Neal Adams and Russ Heath is so familiar to me. That they're not equally familiar or desirable to folks on the Boards isn't a tragedy, just another subtle reminder that many of the things we cherish are products of an era that disappears with us at the bittersweet end.
