Wow, thats a great book!! \(worship\) I always thought this cover was on par with Amazing Man #22 for green monsters, plus Kurtzman on the inside!!

It's hard to beat green super-sized fanged Nazi gorillas but the Super-Mystery cover has its own grotesque charm. It's also drawn by Kurtzman.

These new acquisitions aren't in great condition but they are all pretty nice to see in a bunch.

I am particularly fond of the Four Color which matches the coloring book that I purchased ten or so years ago.

I liked that cartoon too.

It's no Double cover but it is a Super Mystery Vol 1 #1 I aquirred a few years back. Not sure what it would grade at but its got to rank right up there.

Btw, could that be the actor Richard Carlson's book?

 

I guess it could be, but he would have been 29 when it came out.

 

Who knows. Edgar Church was 49 when Action #1 came out.

 

I would guess a 29 year old would have more chance of having a name stamp in 1942 or whenever it was than a 12 year old. (shrug)

 

He would have been in the war at the time.

Based on this IMDB profile it looks like he went to war in 1943
