1koko Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Sunday at the show was just ok. Managed to pick up a few commons. Cosmic Aeroplane. Cosmic Aeroplane (I think). Still can't believe I own this, let alone in high grade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciorac Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 In hand now, and cracked out of the slab. I can't tell you how cool it is to reconnect with this book some 16+ years since I sold it to Ruben. Apologies to Parker for posting a non-Timely, since only Timelys matter and are always HOT HOT HOT. Poor slobs like me like comics from all publishers. The horror, and the shame are almost more than I can bear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cimm Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) I had part of this book as a kid (front cover and 20 or so pages). Thanks to BLB for mentioning it in one of his recent historical posts... I gave up hunting for one years ago, but when he reminded me of it, I looked around, and now, 35 years later, I will get to finish the second story and read the rest of the book I know, I know... It has tape. Sometimes, for some books, even your biggest no-go-oh-hell-no deal-breaker doesn't matter. Edited May 7, 2013 by Cimm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaillant Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 That Hyper Mystery looks gorgeous, Cimm. Never saw it before, I have got to check if it‘s at the DCM. And… who cares about tape? I have doubts about Schomburg as well on that cover, Jim, it does not seem his "halftone" painting style… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D copy Schomburg c/a......GOD BLESS.... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) (thumbs u I believe Schomburg only did an interior story, but the cover was done by another, not Norm Saunders, but his assistant who's name escapes me.. ...... yeah, I'm wondering about that too.... CGC notes it as Schomburg cover and art, but OSPG makes no mention of cover artist for any of the run. I've never studied Schomburg's pulp covers and can't really comment. It doesn't have that dynamic quality that most of Saunder's work has....that sense of motion. The Alien doesn't seem like typical Schomburg fare..... so your explanation does make sense.
