Mutie Fan Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Well this isn't anything near as nice as the 4 books I just quoted as far as condition is concerned that's for sure..Incomplete and beat...but its hard to argue whether or not sweet Lou hit a homer with this cover or not!! I say yes...yes he did. Picked up this raggedy well loved beauty for a song and it was awaiting my arrival when we got home from the lake this afternoon!! No complaints with this day over in northeast O-H-I-O!!... I never noticed this before, but the skeleton has fleshy hands. It just strikes me as a bit odd. Great cover that you don't see very often!

One of my favorite MLJ's Thanks Damien and thanks Robot!! I have to agree the splash this book is famous for is off the register cool!! I also enjoy a few of the others from this issue as well...for everyones viewing pleasure...I hope the images dont offend anyone if it does let me know and I will take it down...I would think most reading in the Gold Sector are ok with me sharing these as they are accustomed to this type of stuff though.

Definitely a b itchen comic book! I wonder though why they spelled Tokyo as "Tokio", in the newspaper headline? On purpose for some "politically correct" reason (highly doubt that), or an editing lapse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On purpose for some "politically correct" reason (highly doubt that), or an editing lapse? Neither. it was a common spelling of Tokyo at the time. You see it in many WW II-era comics. The preferred methods of transliterating Chinese and Japanese characters into English have varied over time. To take one example: The Mao Tse-tung of the 1960s is the Mao Zedong of today.
