BangZoom Posted August 9, 2007 Author Share Posted August 9, 2007 Holy moly! What don't you have, BZ? Well, the original artwork to the cover of Action # 1 continues to elude me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted August 9, 2007 Author Share Posted August 9, 2007 Holy poop on a stick, that's AWESOME! What do you do, sleep in a closet upstairs, with the rest of the house loaded with floor-to-ceiling stacks of comics, pulps, and memorabilia? Or do you live in the Biltmore mansion? It's got to be one or the other. I share a bed with a family of squirrels in the backyard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Black Hand ® Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I like the girly pulps. Even though it's just decaying paper, I like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Surfer Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Pulps are ultra cool pieces of Americana and the art work seems to be on a different level. The guys who did the cover pieces were ultra talented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool -- can't wait to see it! I've been thinking a lot lately about taking a break from comics and delving into pulps a little bit and the Flash Gordon Strange Adventures Mag is right up at the top of my want list.

I'm not familiar with Wimbledon Green but its subtitle, "The Greatest Comic Book Collector in the World," reminds me of Supersnipe. That was my first thought when I saw it too. It's a fun read. Check your local library for a copy -- that's what I did. It looks like you already have enough stuff to store. (Probably the same thing Ms Zoom says.)

seank Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Wimbledon Green is a must read for anyone who enjoys Golden Age comics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read a review of it here. Review It sounds like something I would enjoy. I'm going to ask the library to try to get it and "It’s a Good Life if You Don’t Weaken" as interlibrary loans.
