America's Best Comics # 25

 

:applause:

 

:pullhair: I had the right publisher, just looked up the wrong series (Black Terror, Exciting, Startling ...) I forgot she appeared on ABC (plus I did have to do some work :P) I'm still glad I had the right artist. Schomburg's shoes are characteristic and he always likes to have the gal's feet rammed and jammed in them!

BZ,

 

here's some fun for you. Can you tell us which comic book titles were used to spell your fantawhizzybulous name? (sorry for the stretch) -

Rick, Mike,

 

let me resurrect one for you guys to try while BZ has his own. This was posted a while ago so no peeking in the archives - Which titles did these letters come from? -

I missed this posting, but do we get to see the full-scan now that someone has identified it? Do you have an America's Best #24? Always one of my favorite Miss Masque covers

 

 

Bored?

 

Can't believe you have a full week of work in front of you?

 

Then take a break.

 

Try to solve this challenge.

 

Name the comic and issue number of where this image appears on the cover.

America's Best Comics # 25

 

FINALLY.

 

Congratulations, Fuelman.

 

:applause: :applause: :applause:

 

This one took over 5 hours to be solved.

 

I thought it was going to be 5-10 minutes.

 

I recognized it right off, just had to make sure which title. :acclaim:

 

Me too. I was hoping it wasn't solved yet...

Doing great so far :applause:

 

N is extra tough. It's from a 50's short title.

G is tough because it's a -script but it's from a long running Dell title

Z - No clue. It's quite easy

O - is from a title with a nice little run of covers taking flights.

Nope even though that was one heck of a guess as they look eerily similar. The z belongs to a big run of an early publisher though.
