Socratic Wonder Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Honestly, I don't know what Sheena sees in that guy. I can't see what does Sheena sees in Socratic Wonder either! Especially now that he seems to be getting rid of her namesake's books. 1. I was talking about Bob. 2. SW is selling off a few books to purchase something big. I wish him luck because it's a book all you will recognize, one of my favorite GA covers, and one I would not mind owning one of these days. 3. If a Jumbo 31 comes up for sale, anticipate a battle between us for it. Pistols at 50 yards or something dignified and honorable like that. 2. 3. I’m glad you got the Jumbo safely Sean......no shipping mistakes thank god! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She digs the funnybooks too. I didn't know that. Is she a punk rocker? SW and I are discussing a meet-up at the Magic Castle in November when I'm in LA. I'll have a chance to meet Sheena in person then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockey&comicsguy Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 Big thanks to Steve (sacentaur) for putting me in touch with Stephen Ritter (great guy to deal with) on this. My first "D" copy and another piece of the Mary Marvel puzzle. All the darkness around the edges of the book are from my crummy scanner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(thumbs u ...please edumacate me on this...does this read like a comic or does it open up into a newspaper section???... They original came like a newspaper page and you would fold & cut them into the shape of a comic (hence the "Fold On This Line" and "Cut On This Line" directions). The read exactly like a regular comic. That being said, they were ones that weren't meant to be folded. Motorcity had some at WW Chicago this year. Never had seen any before.

esquirecomics Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 I haven't been able to post for the last couple of months as I was away for work or vacation, but I've picked up quite a few books during that time from both the SD and Baltimore Cons, as well as from internet purchases. I've finally been able to scan them in (although unfortunately I don't have photoshop on this computer so the scan images do not properly reflect the actual colors of the book), so here we go!

esquirecomics Posted September 14, 2007 Share Posted September 14, 2007 BangZoom corrupted me on this one. I just HAD to have it when I came across a copy in SD. It became the talk of two shows as few dealers had ever paid attention to the cover before! I find it amazing that this title was published by Dell of all companies. A lot happened from 1943 to the early 1950s when Dell became wholesome!! BTW, the dude has shorts on - thankfully - in the interior story! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
