selegue Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Have a Cigar or Short Bus books? More from skypinkblu's massive inventory! Last two for today. Police Comics 6 from Jan-42. Looks pretty nice, doesn't it? Unfortunately someone neatly trimmed out the Plastic Man story, taking the last page of Chic Carter with it. I think that Sharon made paper dolls out of them. Police Comics 8 from Mar-42. Again missing Plastic Man, along with the last page of Manhunter and first page of Mouthpiece. A little rougher than #6, but a great way to read some of the secondary features that will never see the light of reprints. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larryw7 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Great books! I love those early Plastic Man stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selegue Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Great books! I love those early Plastic Man stories. Yeah, rub it in, why don't ya? Both books are missing the Plastic Man stories -- but those have already been reprinted in Plastic Man Archives vol 1. I really should buy that volume. (Wouldn't it be funny if these are the books that were sacrificed to prepare the Archives? Does anyone know whether Greg Theakston bleached actual pages for PM Archive 1?) On the other hand, how long before we see The Flame or Mouthpiece Archive Editions? Don't hold your breath. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Have a Cigar or Short Bus books? More from skypinkblu's massive inventory! Big 3 #4, Jul-41 from Fox. This is my first look at Samson and The Flame. Even a Kooba Cola ad inside the front cover! Looks better than its technical grade because of a missing centerfold. Jack And I'll give this one a (thumbs u as well. These Fox'ers got pretty junky in 1941 and early '42, but I still can't get enough of them. What are the backup stories? Anything fun?
