Robot Man Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 This arrived today. My last purchase of '16 and my first Schommie. Nice first Schomburg Paul. You will be hooked soon. Like you, I started out with PCH. When I got all I wanted (still have them too). I discovered Schomburg and bought like a fiend. I'm pretty close to having all the war cover Nedors.

Unfortunately I can't buy like a man possessed, much as I'd like to.My Schommies are going to be few and far between, so it' going to be a big deal for me when I can get another one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sqeggs Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Another run I've had for a while: Sorry for the crappy pictures Nice! Not the easiest 4 issue run to complete (I just need a #2). They are cool ... except for the cover of issue 4, which looks like the regular artist was out of the office and the guy in the mailroom took a turn. Of course, issue 4 is the only one I've got!

Scrooge Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I don't know. # 4 is drawn, as you know, in the Roy Crane style, hugely popular at the time, so the editor might actually have been really keen on # 4 hoping to capture the eye of kids who liked Captain Easy and hopefully their dime as well. I probably prefer # 4 over # 2 (though I'll be okay to be in the minority on this one). Great set of books regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While anything is possible, the cover artist for #4 (Joe Buresch) was a poor draftsman - some of his interior work is quite abysmal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damonwad Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I found a panel of Crane's with a very similar style of horse to the one Buresch uses on WPS. I'm still going to be in the "Buresch stinks" group until I see some good work of his. Here's a page from WPS #2. Enjoy sacentaur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
