I saw a foreign #1 that began with one of those Whitman/Western issues using incredible Carlos Garzon art in black and white. I was stunned that I had overlooked these for so long. The art was beautiful. I've been looking at low grade whitman lots on feebay to read (I'm trying to pay $2 or less per issue). I'm counting on your review, because I just grabbed the 19-30 run off MCS (well, 19 I had to go to the Bay, but the others were MCS.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that a redrawn Raymond cover? The line seems a little too thick, but could just be a reprint of a reprint of a reprint and then enlarged to reprint. My UK Price Variant has finally returned from CGC (I had to send it back for the proper "UKPV" status label), and I am so happy that they now take photos of the books in the slabs. I'm pretty sure @Get Marwood & I or @Kevin.J has a better copy. Get Marwood & I, Kevin.J and OtherEric 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, it's the most common of the four Flash UKPVs, in my experience, but really high grade copies rarely appear so you’ve done well Lord Vader Yorick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorick Posted December 9, 2023 Author Share Posted December 9, 2023 (edited) This is what my photos look like: I need to set-up a photobooth to try and reduce all that reflectivity on the cases. I'm still the only collector that created a registry set for the "Flash Gordon All Variants"? Come join my exclusive club!! FORGET IT. UKPV's are not acceptable in the registry set.

I'm curious which issues in the 19-37 run should be considered the "variant". If there are Whitman labels on all of them, but Gold Key only on some, wouldn't that mean the Gold Key copies are the variant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OtherEric Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Some issues in today, here are a few of them.

OtherEric Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 In today. This gives me the entire Gold Key/ Whitman run, other than the stray #1 from the 60's. I do have the King #1 from the 60's, though. And the Pacific Comics Club #1 from the early 80's. And the Marvel #1 from the 90's. And I think I've got the DC #1 from the late 80's in a box somewhere. And at this point I'm certain I've gone off on a tangent from the point of posting this cover... ADAMANTIUM, Yorick, Warlord and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
