Hi Phil :hi:

Anymore tonight??

 

Sorry, needed to spend time on the day job yesterday answering questions Health Canada sent to my company.  I will try to list a few new things this afternoon for everyone's entertainment and perusal.  Hope people are enjoying this thread and the bits of info I sprinkle in throughout.    I think it is the historical meme of golden age comics that fascinates me the most.  This was American folklore that was created, and what I find particularly interesting is that many of these folks that became artist or publishers that created this folklore were immigrants mostly from Europe.  Some of these folks were first generation immigrants, or their children became artists and crafted the funny books that we see today as second generation immigrants.  It is no wonder that the super heroes that were created were always on the crushing side of the allied forces depicted as gross comic caricatures of themselves, as this must have been somewhat how they were viewed by these folks that suffered under these rulers.

Wow. Wow. This makes me rethink Planet Comics 56 as best people in test tubes cover.

Planet #56 takes the cake.  I actually bought a reader copy, hoping to figure out what the heck is going on in this image, but as far as I could tell the contents of the book bore no connection at all to the cover.  Very weird.

Mad scientist trying to create a “10”? He may have succeeded!

Well, that's the thing ... which end of the line is the "before" and which is the "after"?

Sadly, because the arcs of electricity have not yet reached the last tube on the right, my assumption has always been that the bad guy is doing harm to these ladies and the hero is arriving just in time to rescue the last one.

Both cool but Science Comics 2 takes the cake.

It has been a long week for me folks and I am headed off to bed, so I will reply to your question etc... tomorrow.  Thanks to all of you that have made this sales thread very successful so far, I appreciate the collector community that is here and that many of you peeps buy stuff.  I have more cool stuff to come, but I only have so much time between my day job and then posting items here that I hope people are interested in.  I am enjoying posting these books far more than I thought I would as I am getting to know some of you personally.  So thanks to those peeps that have reached out and given me some insight into how long you have been collecting, and cool sh&t that you all have.  

Thank you to all of the folks that have contributed to this thread.  I'm really interested to see where it goes from here.

Well that reply has me laughing, I will put Mr. Dopey Duck with the other books you have set aside.  Let me know if you want me to send you what you have set aside or if you want to continue shopping.

You should have also left it IN your body. Having your girlfriend remove it for you decreases it's value ... please don't ask me how I know. GOD BLESS ...

So what's the story on whether it's an advantage to have three kidneys?  I might be a bidder here if there's enough upside.

I’ve been getting quite a few DM’s on this. I think it’s only fair to send it off to auction at this point. . It’ll be in Goldin’s next premiere session. So that I can feel the pain twice.
