Great books Fay! Love that Heath Rock cover. It was like a cool glimpse of what was to come with the stunning run of Rock he'd embark upon in subsequent years.

 

Go, Keith! I don't recall thinking that that GIC 87 would get an 8.5, but I've been known to be wrong once every decade or so. I think that makes it top of the census, right? A feather in your cap for sure!!

Those of you who participated in thirdgreenham's fabulous Silver Age war sale recently may enjoy seeing this.

 

Not a comic book, although those are terrific too and I'll post some favorites as time permits, but the box they came in! About half of the surface of the box looked like this:

 

 

I figure it was either:

a reminder that Andy had to pay Canadian shipping rates

or

a gentle ribbing for "nickel and diming him to death" during the sale.

 

I was happy to get a big stack of reader and better All-American Men of War and Our Army at War comics for a reasonable price. It was great dealing with Andy -- thanks!

you know? even if they take out the tank with that bazooka, this cannot end well for the guys in the jeep!

that's a pretty common and fun theme in he war books. Many times the heroes are in for a bad day no matter how things turn out

I don't think they can take out a Tiger by hitting it with a bazooka on its frontal armor. Too thick.

It wouldn't work on any part of the armor but could dislodge the treads.

[Aman619]

sure looks good though, eh?

I just picked these three up from CGC today.

I only started appreciating SA war comics about a decade or so ago. I made a trip to an estate auction that was supposed to have some nice GA books. Well they did, but all the better books went pretty expensive, including two Frazetta Buck Rogers Famous Funnies that went way over guide and way over my budget. So much for GA Bargains.

 

However, all the other collectors there completely ignored the war books so I ended up getting several lots. I seem to remember paying something like $30 for about 30 books.

 

Here are two of the best books from that first purchase.

If you guys were interested in what mr Joe Kubert looks like now, this pic was taken from the NYCC. It appears Mr. Kubert doesn"t really like his picture taken. Oh well.
