Comical Situations Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 On 10/25/2023 at 12:09 PM, catrick339 said: The Adventures of Superman, trade paperback Published in 1979, this is a reprint of the 1942 novel by George Lowther. As far as I can tell, this is the ONLY paperback reprint except for the Armed Forces edition back in the WWII era. There was a harcover reprint in 1993, and that's it, only four printings ever. I've never seen a copy of the Armed Forces book in person, just pictures. Later in this thread, I'll have both a nice copy of the original, and a superb copy of the 1993 HC reprint available, keep your eyes peeled!

Sharp copy, but a couple light remainder marks on the lower edge of the book This one is thick enough and heavy enough that it would ship BY ITSELF in a priority envelope. If you buy anything with it you'll be bumped up to a flat rate box. Asking $15 Take Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catrick339 Posted October 29, 2023 Author Share Posted October 29, 2023 Last book for the evening! Tales of the Mysterious Traveler 8 TWO Ditko stories in this one. Slightly miscut, and there is a neat but good sized spine roll, dogears upper RH FC. That being said, it's tight, glossy, white pages. A press wouldn't do anything for the creases, but the spine roll should disappear entirely. Asking $60 Readcomix 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catrick339 Posted October 29, 2023 Author Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) So! Running late today, I was up until after 5 AM with a dose of the flu or some close cousin. But here's something to tide you over until I finish some more scans. Justice League of America 21 Part 1 of the great JLA/JSA crossover that set up Earth 1 and Earth 2 for decades of crossovers. Tremendous fun, and of some significance to me since I read this part when it was fresh on the stand in 1963...and didn't get my hands on a copy of part 2 until about 1975, when I was attending the Detroit Triple Fanfare comic shows CGC 5.5, offwhite pages. Sharp book. Asking $200 Edited October 29, 2023 by catrick339 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catrick339 Posted October 29, 2023 Author Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) All Righty! Scans are all finished, I'm going to list a couple paperbacks and take a break. My beloved tells me an early dinner will be ready shortly. Back after food with the comics. Greenmask, Dell Mapback 111 This is a flat tight glossy book, square, nice interior. There are a couple of (slightly) bumped corners, see scan. Spine pic following from the camera. Asking $15 for a nice one SOLD!

catrick339 Posted October 29, 2023 Author Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Rogue Queen, Dell (NOT a mapback) 600 Tiny split upper spine FC, light creasing both FC and BC, spine cocked. Still displays pretty well, and it's affordable. Besides, you just gotta love a giant naked purple alien woman on the FC, right?

catrick339 Posted October 29, 2023 Author Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Laugh Comics 33 Very pretty midgrade, flat and tight, but the upper edge of the interior, back half, must've been misfold a bit, and didn't get trimmed properly. Somebody had to go through and separate the folds on several leaves. We've all seen it before. If you use your finger instead of a knife it tends to tear the pages instead of separate them. Small bits out of the upper edges of several pages, all in the back half, and there's one longish tear into one panel that has been neatly glue repaired. Otherwise quite solid, offwhite pages. Edit: Quarter sized medium brown stain lower BC Second Edit: This is a Canadiam copy. Asking $60 SOLD! per PM!
