Electron Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Here's another one with a sexy babe (this beauty arrived yesterday); it's a classic woman in peril cover... Sorry about the scan, the older holder has a few minor scuff marks over the "E" and "M"... this PEP has a sharp, bright cover. The colors really pop and Novick's perspective is dizzying) Love some of the early Pep covers,and this one in particular.Congrats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheetah Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 That is a beauty, Billy. Is that one of GAtor's books he was selling? I've not bought much recently since I've been unloading a lot of my SA and BA books but I took a trip to Columbus and picked up a small handful of books from Dave Kapelka.

Cat-Man_America Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 (edited) this other one? Yeah, I think that's the right Cole. Congratulations on just having a copy of that puppy, Billy. As an artist, I've always found that particular cover of Silver Streak a bit frustrating though. Jack's detailed line art is fantastic of course, but whoever worked the color just didn't do it justice; clearly Jack had little to do with the color layout. If you can imagine the B&W original and then mentally recolor it so that the Claw's upper lip is shaded yellow & green (like the lower right lip) instead of red, and the creature's saliva and hand isn't crudely painted into the flat green background of the robe, then Jack's fine line work on this cover becomes much more impressive. I love every issue of Silver Streak, but it's the next issue in the series that does it for me. #7 has a much better color palette. The color artist couldn't miss the lines on this one (assuming that Cole didn't do the color layout himself) and the heavier brush work demonstrates Jack's fluid style far more successfully. At least that's how my artist's eyes interpret it. Edited October 24, 2011 by DavidMerryweather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twistty1 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 First purchase in months... Thought this was presentable enough a copy that it would tide me over until I can find a F+ copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
october Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 First purchase in months... Thought this was presentable enough a copy that it would tide me over until I can find a F+ copy. I almost pulled the trigger on that one, but hesitated due to the seller. Just make sure you give it a thorough resto check when you get it. Such a super tough book. I have been looking for years with zero luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the most presentable copy I've been able to find in quite awhile as well. Thank you Straw Man.
