I assure you if you're the one person in 1000 who knows what the heck I'm talking about there's at least a 1 in 3 chance you would be mildly amused by that... I have no idea what the flick you're on about. ThothAmon and OtherEric 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The spacing between the numbers is also off, but fair enough, it's not just the kerning. I find it interesting that we seem to have different views on what the more obvious part of the problem is!

I just looked up a printer glossary for "flick", but perhaps that's meant to be keming. OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozentundraguy Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 I lost out on a copy of Flash Gordon #6 last week, as bidding concluded while I was at work. This week's bid should work out better. OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I know I was pleasantly surprised at the top flight artists employed by King Comics in the mid 60's, so I may pick up a few more.

I have a Flash Gordon 7 on the way, which is generally credited to Mac Raboy. They really did bring in some great names frozentundraguy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frozentundraguy Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I won a copy of Flash Gordon #6 this week. I just have no idea when it might arrive as the seller has not posted a tracking number, but I think all will be good.

frozentundraguy Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I was at the LCS today to pickup some supplies. I checked what they had for Flash Gordon, and they did have one King. However it was in horrible condition, which is a new designation for comics in low grade but high price. OtherEric 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
