Any One Interested in a MYSTERY IN SPACE Collecting Thread?

[TupennyConan]

I think I'm going to have some major contributions to this thread in about a week or two...

MYSTERY IN SPACE!!! One of my favorite DC series. I still need about 30 issues to complete the set.

 

Been wanting to contribute to this one so here are a few that I haven't noticed being posted yet.

A couple pre-Adam Strange.

 

MIS 44 This has got to be about the corniest cover I've seen.

 

MIS 49 Wouldn't the Earth be wrecked with serious tidal waves or other disaster if this really happened?

 

I would have thought we'd seen all the Adam Strange issues by now. Don't think I saw these posted.

 

MIS 67 GIANT FIREFLIES!!

 

MIS 71 Globe headed elves. Another body switching tale!!

 

MIS 81 And it's a real powder puff blow!! Lightweight champion?

 

 

I'll have to dig around and show some more later on. Really fun series.

No, because even though the spaceman got big (by visiting an adjacent universe with a higher expansion rate than ours), his mass did not increase. I just bought this issue on Ebay and read the story a couple of days ago! Great stuff.

Guess I need to read that sucker. I'm sure I did about 20 years ago. Can't recall everything.

Well, I finally got one of my most sought after grails. It is an attractive copy, but has some spine splits (caused some...um...disagreement with the Ebay seller, but that's another story that has been resolved...).

 

This is also my first book with a non-reprint Frazetta story. It's beautiful!

 

 

 

i'm also on the hunt for one.

Another great MIS cover. I love the pastel colors on the Earth. White Mtn. copy.

I love that spaceship - in particular, the fins. It looks like 50's Chevy's designs will make a comeback in the far-future.

[adamstrange]

Beautiful!

Thanks. The more I see these high grade DC collections come to market with no sci-fi titles, the more I like these books.
