Finally got a chance to start scanning  the additions from MCS.  Mostly the Missing Four COlors

Not sure why, but having trouble uploading newly scanned jpegs

Well actually the entire post  did not work.  Looks like  it is working correctly  now

based on the way MCS listed this one (#208 as in August of '62) I thought it might have been a missing Four Color and added it to my want list along with dozens of other Missing Four Colors  years ago 

Turns out it was actually a spun off series  which was listed as Jonny Jason Teen Reporter #2 inside.  Bht a fun book to look at.  How many issues did the series run anyway?

Two, I believe.

It actually turned up a few years ago in the Mystery Science Theater 3000 comic, as well.

Lovely Bugs Bunny covers!. I like the 298 the most

I have the main story of this Zorro edition in my Brazilian Uncle Scrooge n° 13 :)

An assortment of books.  We start with two issues that I chose through a careful, meticulous consideration of all the relevant factors.

Namely, they were 1300 series Four Colors under $5 each at MCS:

Finally, a trio of covers that weren't Four Colors... but they were certainly commissioned based on the work the artist had done on the character for the Four Color series decades before.  Call them Four Color adjacent:

Boy, that’s a nice 200! That’s one I’ve never found in hand, and as I’m sure you know, it’s been tough to win books like this on the Bay these past few years. I should’ve been more dedicated just six or seven years ago to finding my favorite Four Colors.

Harley had it as a 6.0, I believe.  Still cheap, though.  I think a lot of the four colors are under appreciated these days, possible because they look like high numbers

Since I posted last  I have had  and recovered from COVID

We have also recarpeted  about 1/3rd of the house.

So that means I am finally able to build out  another Walk-in Comic closet in the bedroom  where my youngest  daughter ( 28) lived until a year and a half ago.

 

I was able to convince HP to replace the  awful printer I had purchased from them as it kept loosing connection almost every time I went to use it.

Got the new one  installed and  my PC computer moved upstairs as well ( My wife got a Apple so we no longer have to share.)

 

These scans are the first with the new setup.  Worked very easy.  Most of these books are  from the 4GEM collection being auctioned off at Heritage on a Weekly basis
