cheetah Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 For the love of God, would somebody please post a new comic to stave off the mind numbingly boring conversations about MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Frack! Is that what we've become? A bunch of damned investors? It's the books tha matter, not the fracking money. Except for our dealer friends of course To prove I'm not in it for the money, this is the kinda stuff I've been buying lately: I see your Barnie Google and raise you a Blondie.

skypinkblu Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 (edited) Not high grade, but not easy to find...and I want to thank Mike (Flatrock) because he went way out of his way to get it for me...and his LCS dealer, too...who is also a boarder (AK Comics)..I'm more excited about finding this book, than some that have cost me many more $$ Edited April 24, 2012 by skypinkblu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Any help in identifying this one is appreciated: Likely to be a Bell Features canadian reprint. Can you give us an idea of the interiors? Sadly, no online exhaustive listing / resources of the Bell books and since it's Canadian, this wouldn't be covered in OSPG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you give us an idea of the interiors? Sadly, no online exhaustive listing / resources of the Bell books and since it's Canadian, this wouldn't be covered in OSPG. Bell is a good guess since the cover art looks like it's from an interior splash page (especially since it does not fit the layout of the cover, with all the empty space around the title). I just noticed it's an L.B. Cole cover, which is cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Well, yes, I couldn't ID it as any cover Cole did in the U.S. I am surprised at the sig if it is from a splash. I don't recall if Cole was as diligent at signing his story work as he was his covers? Was he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall if Cole was as diligent at signing his story work as he was his covers? Was he? If it's from a splash then it would be one of the interior stories of the same comic. No, you're right, L.B. Cole did not often sign his interior work. Does it say Bell anywhere on the comic (such as 1st interior page or back page)?

Scrooge Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Thanks Honky. I must have failed to click on that. I didn't believe that this cover would belong in that run ... but now I see that all bets are off for covers in that run. Great ID work :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstrange Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 I was pretty sure I'd seen the cover as Cole did some "unusual" covers in the late 40s. I'm sure he appreciated the freedom once he started his own company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
