october Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I love this cover. So bizarre. This one has to be on some top 10 atom age lists.... Very nice! That is cool (thumbs u I guess the moral of the story is if you see a mushroom cloud you should say goodbye to your dog... You of all people should recognize the significance of this cover, 143ksk. Take another look at your avatar, then the cover. It's the Secret Origin of Archie! While on a camping trip to the desert Southwest, young Archie realizes that his dog, Barfo (RIP) has wandered onto a secret government installation where the Delta Bomb is being tested. As the countdown proceeds, young Archie spots Barfo and attempts to shield him from the blast. The Delta Bomb explosion fuses Archie's and Barfo's personalities, resulting in a mutant Archie with pheromones that mysteriously compel all females to find him as irresistably cute as a puppy. That's why hot babes like Veronica and Betty are always fawning over an ugly dog like Archie, no matter how much of a lout he is. Jack Funny....yet................somewhat disturbing.... Andy, I've got to agree with you...it's a grail of some oddball collectors. Your's doesn't have the teachers wrap, but does have great colors. Actually, it does have the wrap. It was folded back when I got it, so I was able to take a scan of the interior front without causing damage to the exterior cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comicdey Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Collin, I take it yours has the teachers' wrap? yes it does, but the scans are larger than 200 so I can't board host them....less common by far with the teachers wrap, but not a common book anyway.

Your's doesn't have the teachers wrap, but does have great colors. Thanks for the back cover (or should I write revoc kcab?) and creepy page. "Uranium is heavier than iron." No wonder people don't understand the difference between weight or mass and density. They're taught wrong from the beginning. (Pet peeve.)

Even with the restoration, it's still a beautiful copy of one of my favorite Cap covers. Outstanding eye appeal on that one. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
