Cat-Man_America Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Wow! Those are super nice Fine covers! At this point, I'm wondering if it's time for his understudy to step up to the plate? Ah, heck, why not give the kid a shot... nothing wrong with a crandall cover. in fact, it was the 18 that got me on the run to begin with. Beeee-eautiful Crandall books, Billy! (worship) I used to have an 18 in the VF/NM range that I regretted selling back in the dark days when I divested myself of my GA collection. Your awesome looking 8.0 just whets my appetite for reacquiring it. I really want to get a run of those Crandall Stormy Foster Hits in high grade ...well, with the possible exception of the awkward looking Gil Fox cover (#22) ...I'm sure that I'll snag that puppy too, but I may not be quite as concerned about grade.

Flex Mentallo Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) Mind posting your Fight #6 again please? Pretty please? I think you meant Fight 5... Thanks - I got it stuck in my head that it was #6 when I bought the (greatly inferior) Rockford copy! Dont know why, since I do have a #6 anyway! There are higher grade copies out there, but unlike #5, the colors seem to be uniformly strong on all the copies I've seen so far.

Besides the awesome cover, it has a very cool story by Williamson and Krenkel: i must be getting senile--i thought it was me who sold it!!! You must be getting mellow in your old age without realising! The artwork on the story Doiby refers to is indeed fantastic. As I dimly recall, not having owned a copy in five years, an intergalactic sweetheart sacrifices herself to save the human race. Does anyone happen to know if it has been reprinted anywhere?

Electron Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Mind posting your Fight #6 again please? Pretty please? I think you meant Fight 5... I'm stunned every time I see this book,it's just sooo pretty.I did just notice that CGC forgot to list the pedigree on the label though. I mean c'mon, it must be a pedigree right??

That's the story, and it has a surprisingly poignant final panel that wouldn't look out of place in an EC sci-fi story. I have no idea if it's been reprinted, I'll check the GCD later.
