I use to own the 9.2. Sold it for over $1K a few months ago.

Early day tomorrow but more to come….

[Readcomix]

Sorry for delays in additions but it got late early and I’ve gotten on a reading jag by pulling books I am on the fence about parting with. More will be coming; to make amends for the delay, I cut a couple prices on recent additions just now, back pages 2-3.

 SOLD at 20% OFF! Two-Gun Kid #61 (2nd appearance of Matt Hawk, the Marvel continuity Two-Gun Kid). FN- $125

(compare to recent eBay sales; a polite “no thanks” in advance on offers; I’m probably already too low on this one. Pretty copy of a tough 1962 Marvel.)

More to come; that’s all I had time to shoot for now. But I have a read and release stack I’m working through and adding here.

I bought this next book thinking it would scratch the itch, but really I guess I want the cover art…

World’s Finest #212 VFNM; higher if not for sliiiight dust shadow top edge of back cover. Every doofus on eBay is trying to claim this is a Neal Adams cover, but Yours Truly Doofus assumed it was Curt Sawn, but it’s in fact Nick Cardy. $25

I call upon resident Curt Swan expert/aficionado @kav to confirm or berate the reasonableness/unreasonableness of me mistaking this Cardy for Swan.

absolutely cardy.  Swan would be more graceful poses and there would be a background.

That’s the stuff I missed. I thought they looked like Swan-style musculature, (I still see some of that) but when you point out the lack of grace…. Why the heck is J’onn, who is taller, reaching up to punch Superman? Was he flying away?? Thanks Kav!

Certainly not Cardy at his Adams knockoff best, but fun I guess because DC slugfests are so rare compared to Marvel, and this is their Thor vs Hulk rough equivalent. Fun to see the big 2 powerhouses squared off when it’s not so common.

swan always has people gasping in the background for scenes like this if that helps.
Cardy also makes faces a bit round its kind of distinctive.
