Well, look at what's making a return trip to give all of you lucky early Fox collectors with deep pockets a second chance to win it:

Makes me wonder if it's going to be able to beat the $51K mark which it was able to hit last time during the big Jon Berk Auction a few summers ago?  

If it does, my bet is that it should then also be able to surpassed the $55K mark that CC was able to sell the equivalent graded Allentown copy of Wonderworld 3 for.

Yikes! The Fox thread is languishing over on page 5. That's not appropriate!!!

Here is probably the last cover that Joe Simon did for Fox.

Thanks to Billy P. for the inspiration, and to Rick H. for the book.

Shameful lack of interest being paid to the Fox thread, time to apply some Science!

And I will throw in a couple back cover house ads for good measure.

DickBriefer is definitely one of the underappreciated, yet biggest highlights of this publisher (Mystery Men Comics #5, December 1939):

Picked up a number of fox first issues when the Windy City collection came out  thought the dynamic Fantastic 1 stood out and tucked it away

As a boy loved any story about robots , carried over to comic books and picked this fox up from original owner collection 1990s

Also, Bert Whitman (Science Comics #5, June 1940):

The color registration process must have really screwed up on Tegra #1 (August, 1948):

Lol Stephen never saw this one, a man’s son around 1990 was offering nearly seventy comics Of his dad’s comics from the late 1930s and through early 1940s examples from all the major players this was one of several standouts . I bought them all no way I could resist .

This fits here better than anywhere else ....
