1st-and-keys Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Here's a couple more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inaflash Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 This one was top census before I cracked it out. You don't see this one come up for sale too often. Truly one of Cole's weirder covers (and that is saying something). I like how he snuck in that eyeball in the top right corner. Nice looking book. All the books you show tend to have very nice eye appeal. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
october Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Nice looking book. All the books you show tend to have very nice eye appeal. Ken Thanks. Since I generally can't afford high grade stuff, I have to go with the next best thing, which is eye appeal. It works most of the time, and my enjoyment of the books doesn't suffer even though some are techncally low or mid grade. It's been fun finding out what I like and don't like about golden age comics. I think I have learned a lot in the year that I have been collecting them...my tastes have certainly evolved pretty quickly. 95% of that knowledge came from this forum and from the more experienced collectors I have met in person.

Detroit MIke Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Did that Punch come from the Motor City Con? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RareHighGrade Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Is it the boobs?... On the cover, I mean. It's the composition. The detailed definition of Rocket Girl's physique. The monstrous bird with the victims falling out of its claws (not unlike the cover of Silver Streak #6). . . . And what you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1st-and-keys Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Did that Punch come from the Motor City Con? I got it off of ebay about a year or so ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not shabby for a book who went to Europe and back. ( 50Ore book) Yeah I was wondering about that. I remember a thread about Ore books a while back. That first interior splash page is very cool too!

It was listed that way in Overstreet for the longest time. But artist info is not the Price Guide's strong suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
