Sorry for running you up on this one its one heck of a tough one to find and one of the only issues in the run I am missing, I suspect I will end up paying dearly as well.

[Point Five]

I'm pretty sure I owned that copy years ago... I definitely remember the X on the logo. I'm afraid to even look at what it sold for...

Great book J!!!! Love it!! Homerun for sure falls into that late 41' early 42' category that i am so fond of.

 

What......no love for the '39 and early 1940's Fox books?

So now question a for you for my freind...do you collect the late 41' early 42' books or just the 39-40s?

 

 

Gino;

 

Love your WW 7 & 15 which you have there and the Science Comics.

 

As for myself, my Fox books are mostly from '39 - 40's and then a big jump to a few copies from their second coming in the latter part of the 40's.

 

My Wonderworld 13 was the latest issue of WW that I used to have, but it's now sitting in Bedrock's personal collection.

thanks brother!! The 7 and the 15 are just covers but what great covers they are!! I would like complete copies someday so if anyone has some extras just sitting around give me a buzz haha!! If your book is sitting in Richards personal collection I have no doubt it is a beauty and probably nicer than EVERY single GA book grade wise that I have ever purchased!!

i'm an inveterate "early fox" guy--they lose me in august '40. i do agree that after a spate of bad books in all the various titles, they do get pretty cool again later. however, having a lot of completist in me, i'd want all the books, and just couldn't get on board collecting those awful ones.

Totally agreed BP some of the middle ones of the runs especially cover wise are pretty BLAH!!!

 

While I'm here again I figure I could share a few splash pages from Flame #8 that I find particularly cool and some downright creepy awesome!! "The Finger of Frozen Death" while not a full splash is just spectacular as are the others I suppose!!

I too agree that the artwork and covers of the middle Fox books are generally tougher to stomach. The only one I have is a Mystery Men 13 and the only reason I picked it up was because the grade was very high and the price was very low. In hindsight I'm glad I got it, but the cover is still pretty blah...

I love it....
