MrBedrock Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 That's a really pretty 6.0. And what a tough issue. Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

innocuous Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 Finally got to read the first appearance of the Scarecrow. Well. It is a "reader" copy. I do like many of the WF sports covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esquirecomics Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 That's a really pretty 6.0. And what a tough issue. Congrats! Thanks Rich, it is a very nice upgrade. It really does look better than a 6.0, at least from the scan - which is all I have seen. What actually brings it down to a 6.0? Great book! Happy to be a part of the transaction!

selegue Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Now for something completely different..I've always enjoyed the works of Johnny Gruelle and was pleased to finally get a nice copy of the following book... Very nice!! Did Gruelle do the artwork on the whole series, including Four Color books? Did he ink as well? Maybe he's even the mystery letterer that I was wondering about in the Four Color thread. Does this have elegant, almost italic lettering sort of like Eisner sometimes used on The Spirit? Those wallpaper cover backgrounds are really eye-catching. Pity scrooge isn't here to appreciate this one. I hope he comes back and catches up. Jack Raggedy Ann + Andy #1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArAich Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Very nice!! Thanks. Did Gruelle do the artwork on the whole series, including Four Color books? I only have books from the regular series and all of them have art by Gruelle so logically thinking since it is his creation he probably did. Did he ink as well? I imagine so???...
