Scrooge Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Picked this up as part of a large trade..... it was just so colorful and cool looking. This title has never been what you'd call popular..... this one was around a hundred bucks..... not too horrible for a high grade 1942 comic. GOD BLESS.... -jimbo(a friend of jesus) True, did someone else say True? I believe Micah has / had a run of True and I know Rick likes to stock them. Glad to see you interested Jimbo. Lot of great stories documentary / bio style in these. The title goes down in the later part of the run, circa post mid-50's issue number. Becomes more like Heroic, with short (2 or 3 pages) random facts / anecdotes / true-life stories Am still chasing / looking for some issues to fill the early part of the run.

damonwad Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Here's the Oswald story with Woody: I didn't know Woody didn't have his traditional red and blue colors to begin with (kind of like the grey Hulk). Here are a couple pages from issue #66. I'd be curious to know what colors he had in his 2nd appearance (#65). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtsunlimited Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I know this isn't GA but, I'm hoping one of you guys can help me with this. How was this distributed? Are there others? Was it packaged with something? It's just a single sheet folded in half. The back cover shows a 1973 copyright date. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

vaillant Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Love these early Woody Woodpecker strips… Which character is L'l' Eight Ball? Never saw him. Also a Walter Lantz character? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 (edited) Just picked this up That's little Eight Ball on the readers right... He was a regular in New Funnies until Woody pushed him out. I think he started as a Walter Lantz cartoon. Was it the Magpie...and the Tiger or the Hunter? ED: According to Wikipedia... Lil' Eightball is a Walter Lantz character, who made his first appearance in the cartoon "The Stubborn Mule", in 1939. His final appearance was in 1939, in "A Haunting We Will Go". He is a Black stereotype and was voiced by Mel Blanc. Edited December 18, 2016 by BB-Gun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
