agro23 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 I posted this in the "Spare a Grade?" forum, but I thought I'd share the love. I've actually had this book for a few years, but haven't posted it yet. I never really thought I'd actually own this comic, but I'm ecstatic that I do! I think it's at about a 5.0, give or take. I'll most likely send it off to CGC soon. Whadda think? (thumbs u Another "gotta have it" classic cover! Send it to CGC by all means. Unless you plan on reading it again and again which is also but if you only got it for the cover then submit it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got it in from a guy who was selling a small GA collection that was his GRANDMOTHERS, not knowing what was he had, and this was in the stack. You don't wanna know what I paid.... let's just say I got a good deal on it. Oh, and I have read it. I had to at least once! The cover's still the best part, of course!

shiverbones Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I'm not a huge fan of #11 either. The purple is nice, but the nazi apes are so much more dynamic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The purple is nice, but the nazi apes are so much more dynamic I'm doubtful it's Everett but suspect it's swiped from Everett or inked by other than Everett.

The pose of the main character is similar to ones he uses and the girl in the background is very much in his style. But the inks stink. The amount of swipage that goes on and the often haphazardly arranged collaborations do make artist identification much harder to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of swipage that goes on and the often haphazardly arranged collaborations do make artist identification much harder to make. I always thought it was Everett too. Mainly because as you have mentioned, the girl to me looks like pure Everett. Also in my opinion it is one of the worst covers of the run. But I always thought A-Man had quite a few sub-par covers. At least 7 others are just as bad. Hey, don't kill me guys...I'm a Centaur collector OK...but some of these covers sucked....(but none are as bad as Man of War) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blind Owl Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 (edited) Yeah, the Ferret... First appearance and last appearance all in the same issue. Maybe that's why this was the last Centaur ever published!!!!!!!! Edited March 7, 2009 by Blind Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
