Netmaster-migration Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 You know I thought the same thing. That it did look a bit better than 4.0. Of course we all know it wouldn't be the first time that a book turned up undergraded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiverbones Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 that is a DREAM 4.0, and a killer cover by frazetta. Its on my hit list as well. To have such a gorgeous black copy as a 4.0, you probably could not have done better for the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netmaster-migration Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Oh yeah, I consider myself very lucky. I took one look at it, and I knew that it was simply too good to pass up. I knew I might not get another chance to get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comicdey Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I have many of the Tim Holt issues and that's a beauty. congrats. Undergraded in my opinion also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selegue Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Just picked this one up. One of the very earliest appearances of the original Golden Age Ghost Rider in Magazine Enterprise's Tim Holt #17 from May of 1950. ... This particular issue marks the very first time that Ghost Rider was ever featured on an entire cover (a note that is strangely absent from the CGC label). ... Is this also Dean Martin's first cover appearance? It predates the DC series by a couple of years. (How strange -- surely intentional.)

shiverbones Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 hahaha! I'm more inclined to think that was Frank Drawing himself then Deano, but you never know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topofthetotem Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Dean was never that buff. That is a nice copy BTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no idea that Frazetta was a Dean Martin look-alike. http://www.frazettaartgallery.com/ff/bio/1950/1950.html Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentaurMan Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 A recent pick-up, Silver Streak #4 (thanks to Andy for spotting it in an out-of-the-way longbox at the Chicago con): My Silver Streak collection is close to completion. I'll start a thread on it one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
october Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 A recent pick-up, Silver Streak #4 (thanks to Andy for spotting it in an out-of-the-way longbox at the Chicago con): No problem. It worked out well for the both of us, as I got this one as part of the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBird Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 I must get US Marines #3. I must get US Marines #3. I must get US Marines #3. I must get US Marines #3. I must get US Marines #3. I must get US Marines #3. October, that book looks GREAT. In the meantime, I DID get Atomic War! #2, the last issue I needed to complete the set.

TheEyeSees Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 A recent pick-up, Silver Streak #4 (thanks to Andy for spotting it in an out-of-the-way longbox at the Chicago con): My Silver Streak collection is close to completion. I'll start a thread on it one day. Nice one CentaurMan (and October, Boy-Wonder)!! Looking forward to the new thread... I have only recently become interested in some of the early SILVER STREAK's, mainly beacuse of Jack Cole's work, the CLAW character, and some Simon art. But I'm sure they have more going for them than that. Looking forward to my #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentaurMan Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Nice books! I've never seen a King #13 before. My King collection is from #1-#12. That's a neat cover, and the condition looks really sharp for that era. Well done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArAich Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Thanks CM...the pages on the KC #13 are near white too...I am very pleased with it and being a Flash Gordon fan methinks I may follow in your footsteps and attempt to aquire the previous issues...
