selegue Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Great Advenure Comic Oc! This fun little book arrived today: ... And it even has an "acid vapor" story in it that is sure to excite selegue ... Catching up a bit -- busy week!!! Fun page. You can never have too much pyrophoric acid vapors. As a bonus, Wonder Woman punk rocker prototype panel: Right! Now ha, ha, I am an antichrist I am an anarchist Don't know what I want But I know how to get it I wanna destroy the passerby... Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selegue Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Golden Age? Atomic Age? I guess it belongs here. Blackhawk 56, Sept. 1952, one of four from the skypinkblu collection. Nice looking reader copy with bright colors, featuring the War Wheel, one of my favorite Blackhawk images from the Cold War era. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selegue Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Another skypinkblu book added to my meager Golden Age collection. Blue Beetle 22, June 1943. Really amateurish cover, isn't it? Did Quinlan draw it? An office boy? I picked this one to post partly to point out the Parachute Nurse feature to paratrooper. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batman_fan Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Just in from Heritage... Too cool. I love that cover but every time I see one up for auction it is one of the uber high grade and I can't see about spending that kind of money but that copy looks great!

Paratrooper Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Yup, took me forever to find that book, bought it from David T Alexander. Believe it's also a Gerber 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciorac Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Yup, took me forever to find that book, bought it from David T Alexander. Believe it's also a Gerber 8 I would have to say that "8" is fairly accurate. Gosh knows I've owned or seen a ton of BB's in my day, but that cover completely took me by surprise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Jack, sorry to quote this for the dozenth time but I would love to know more about this story. I notice that they refer to the nurse as Russian in the caption. I can't remember ever seeing a WWII story with a sympathetic Russian main character before. Are there further references to her nationality in the story, or is it a fairly generic war story? Any chance we could see another page or two?

Must be a follow on story from the previous issue: Cool Trooper, I've never seen that book before, at least that I can recall It is listed as an 8, but I don't know if I completely agree. I have a copy that I bought back in 1982 from Mile High Comics back when they had a store at 308 S. Broadway Street in Denver, CO. Gerber put out a request for people to send him pictures of books he hadn't located for the photo journal so I sent him my copies picture (never made it in the guide). Because it wasn't listed in the journal, I have made apoint to watch this book. The copy above is the 4th one I have seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seank Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 (edited) Gatherings from today's Sacramento Convention: Matt Baker and Jack Kamen (?? There's a Rulah story) goodness: I've been wanting to read some Black Cat for a while. This one was from HouseofComics (who I'm always happy to buy from) and the price was reasonable: Another HouseofComics purchase. Late run Fight Comics with nice deep colors: (Those late run FH books make me sad because you can see how downhill the company has slid. They pale in comparison to what the company was doing just a few years earlier.) And these two aren't GA, but I'm going to show them off anyway: At the rate I'm buying Sugar and Spikes, I should have a full run around 2050.
