BangZoom Posted August 6, 2007 Author Share Posted August 6, 2007 America's Best Comics # 25 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 ) 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! For more Xela/Schomburg covers, check out this website.

Doing great so far 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Z = Zane Grey's King of the Royal Mounted (Feature Book # 1) 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
