Thanks guys. I'm wondering if it might be a good re-sub candidate?

I might just have to call for the grader's notes.

Great Atlas books, Jeffro. Superb Heath and Harry Anderson (I think).

Thanks! Now all I need are a decent copy of SSWS 81, and OFF 29 & 40 & 43, and GIC 54 & 62 & 71 & 79 & 80 &..........aw nuts. Back to the Zoloft.

Yeah, that OFF 51 is sweet. Wish mine was as nice.

Good luck finding a copy of either GIC 79 or 80. I searched and upgraded over a 20 year period and still don't have anything above a F/VF. Those books are pure beeeoootch.

Here's my #80... not sure if I've posted it before. You're right, Mick, it is a total pain to find in nice shape. Props to you for helping me locate this copy. I've always kept my eyes open for other copies of this book, and I would say it comes up less than any other issue of G.I. Combat... I see five #87s for every one of these.

 

I have a pretty nice #79. I'll try and scan and post it over the upcoming long weekend.

That's a beauty Shep you lucky bugger.

 

I bet that's tough book to upgrade with that awesome black cover.

Weird thing was, the week that this one came my way (maybe three or four years back) a rock solid VG showed up on ebay. I bought that one too, and later re-sold it to a buddy. It's one of those books that just never seems to come up.

 

Other guys have said #69 is the toughest book in this run to find, but for my money, it's #80.

 

Shep

[thirdgreenham]

That's in lovely shape, Shep. Congrats!

I have a nice 69, but no 80. go figure!

[comick1]

Heya Shep,

Yeah, the only reason I passed that along was because it was the result of an upgrade. I recall looking at that one and the one I kept and wringing my hands and brooding over the decision for more than an hour unable to come to something decisive. I'm still not sure that there's much of a quantifiable difference between the 2 copies. They're both damned nice and are the prettiest I've ever seen.

 

Definitely let us take a "boo" (as only Shep can say it) at your #79.

I have neither.

Battle 34

 

 

I love Atlas war books but overall they can't hold a candle to their DC counterparts but I don't think DC ever did a cover like this one. DC covers seemed kind of formulaic while Atlas seemed to experiment a little more.

Admittedly, a generalization.
