sagii Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 So happy to finally have this. Great pick up! Robin is a great character in his own right. Look at all the side kick and costumed boy heros who followed in his wake. As weird as what I'm going to say sounds, this is kind of an under-appreciated book. Go figure... I appreciate the heck out of that book yeah I have always put this book along side all the major DC keys. How many people can finish the sentence " Batman and.......?" Robin is an Icon.

walclark Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 couple new owl covers in the box. Wow, c'mon Owl, if Ace Hardware doesn't have the part you need for your bomb, you can always try Lowes or Home Depot. No need to take it out on the employees.

BB-Gun Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 (edited) Thanks BB good stuff as always my friend!! unfortunately however this copy is incomplete and some of the missing pages happen to be the ones you posted...if it eases your mind my copy did come with Xerox pages which I thought was neat and they do appear in the same order as you have posted!! fortunately most of the book is there including Gallows and the Ghoul and they are nice PQ wise...thanks again my friend Thanks for checking. By the way, I noticed this ad for Hangman in Blue Ribbon 14. Looks like George Storm did the art for the ad and Meskin did the art for Ty Gor. Pep comics was a powerhouse of heroes. The Shield was Capt. America and Superman rolled up into one guy and the Hangman was a more sinister version of Batman. Only Archie could defeat them, with Montana's help. In the next issue, George Storm did the art for Ty-Gor and there was an ad for Captain Flag. Edited January 25, 2015 by BB-Gun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhwolfman Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I really like some of the later covers of The Marvel Family. Any love for the Big Red Cheese? 79 gives shot at Mad . [/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 I purchased Blue Ribbon for Cooper's Mr. Justice. He was more like Dr. Strange than the Spectre. But I stayed with the title because of Montana and Storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batman_fan Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 So happy to finally have this. You do know your copy is one of the tougher ones to find. If you look at most of the Detective 38's, the majority have very poor registration. Your copy is near perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sqeggs Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 couple new owl covers in the box. These have been pretty dead books, but Frank Thomas's work on the Owl is some of the best stuff in the GA, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red84 Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 So happy to finally have this. You do know your copy is one of the tougher ones to find. If you look at most of the Detective 38's, the majority have very poor registration. Your copy is near perfect I was super excited to get it. I also like that the restoration is limited to glue and tape on the spine which was done years ago just to keep the book together. As far as I'm concerned, I don't consider it restored. It's also a much nicer looking 2.5 than any other 2.5 that I've seen. And, 2nd best page quality. I really want to get a Tec 40 next so I can display them side by side.
