Fox Comics Appreciation Thread! 20 20

[adamstrange]

Finally, a smattering of Mystery Mens and Wonderworlds.

 

 

What a group of groups!!!!

[TheEyeSees]

DAMN, Jon!!! Don't post these after I have sold off almost all my Foxes. You are going to suck me back in!! Fantastic collection, sir!

 

Great shots, great books. Fox had it going on with the cover art. And the Fine FLAME stories.

 

And lest we forget, Flencher Hanks.

[CentaurMan]

Dude. Those freaking rule. And many of them are impossibly tough, as I'm sure you well know.

 

Great job!!!

[G.A.tor]

wow, great books

To Jon From Jon

 

Here are some of your holes....Weird 20 is very tough.

 

I have displayed these before, but they are great covers. (And do not forget the small title series)

[BB-Gun]

Help! I can't stop posting this book, or looking at it. I think I am addicted to a Fox...

 

 

it's just so damn golden-agey.

 

My stupid scanner can't do justice to the colors at the top. As you know, the book has to be held to be truly appreciated.

 

here's Ritter's scan. It is too dark, mine is to light. The books is actually somewhere in the middle

 

 

Here is my copy which I purchased on ebay several years ago. It hasn't escaped from its plastic case. It never had one.

 

I bet they don't sell as cheaply these days. They are pretty good items to collect. All of the titles look good except for Green Mask.

The funky artwork has a charm and the creativity of the stories attracts attention.

[Forbush-Man]

Jon, I salute you!

 

You've got a great run on those Fox books.

[agro23]

Sciences first. Still need a #2, darnit!

Simply fabulous Fox collection Jon

 

Are you trying to complete all of the titles?

[Point Five]

Hey, thank you everyone for all the kind comments.

 

And while I'm in the neighborhood, let's give credit where it's due!

Kudos to the following forumites for kindly selling me these Foxes over the years:

 

Sharon (skypinkblu) -- Weird #6, 7, 9, 16

Steve (143ksk) -- Fantastic #4, Mystery Men #27

and the good Mr. Heshka for Science #1 and Weird #3.

 

Jon B, I'm always in awe of your collection, but man, especially in awe of that Weird #20. Don't know if I'll ever find one.

 

agro23, thanks for the link! Very tempting but going to have to pass right now...too many other things in the works.

 

Bill/ciorac, I'm pretty much in a holding pattern on the Foxes. I'm real happy with the ones I have, and the ones I still need

are too expensive or too scarce, so I'm focused on various other goals (quack) right now.

 

Cheers all!

Nice books......simply amazing groups

[jbcomicbox]

Certain of the Edd Ashe covers for Fox really appeal to me....so with a little of this and a little of that, i dove for the Church copy of Blue Beetle 4.....It evokes a certain "calmness"...(or as calm as you can be swinging above skyscrappers)
