As far as the Zip run is concerned this is THE ONE that has been sitting atop my want list!! I think this one kind of slipped under the radar being in a Weekly Sunday Heritage Auction as I definitely had to stay up late to snag it but sure happy I did!! Classic Nazi Grim Reaper bloody sickle V for Victory Larger than Life Black Jack Steel Sterling Burning Building Flame Cover lol:cloud9:

 

 

Congrats Gino, that is a very cool book.

 

Thanks Brother I appreciate that!!! (thumbs u

It's a great book, although if I have could have stayed awake until the Z's, you would have had to pay more for it. :D

A friend of mine recently picked this up at a show and was nice enough to work out a trade for it with me. I've always loved this cover because of the great colour combinations and the action, not to mention Schomburg's early work. Needless to say I was ecstatic to get this copy.

Funny you say that actually. My friend and I thought the same thing, but I compared the characters and they look a little different. I've asked my father in law and he only recognized one character but not the other.

This pre Mr. Justice issue features one of the earliest 'boy heroes'. And yes a sidekick of sorts: To a Dog! But not just any dog, but Rang a Tang, the Wonder Dog! it's The Amazing boy Richie making his debut in this one, coming to the rescue of none other than Charlie Chaplin himself (christened 'Harly Shaplyn' in the story)i guess for legal reasons. If / when i get this graded i will inform CGC it should go noted :sumo: . The duo became a fixture in the title. Engrossing Hollywood caper. Blue%20Ribbon%20Comics%206_zpsvx3zsxyd.jpg
