Scrooge Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Scrooge, that is the coolest story you've dug up since those Mighty Mouse scans! What issue is it from? Wow. Those MM pages date from a while back. Glad I can still surprise you. BZ is correct. This is tucked behind a cool 40-page long Captain Battle story in Captain Battle # 2. One day, we'll have to look at that Cpt Battle but the Don Rico story is simply amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted September 9, 2007 Author Share Posted September 9, 2007 Awesome. Check out your copy of # 5 for this splash from June 1940 - Scrooge, thanks for unearthing those cool splash pages. I don't remember ever reading a Silver Streak. I may have to break down and do that. What's this about Mighty Mouse scans? Do you happen to recall which thread they're on?

Scrooge Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Awesome. Check out your copy of # 5 for this splash from June 1940 - Scrooge, thanks for unearthing those cool splash pages. I don't remember ever reading a Silver Streak. I may have to break down and do that. Here are some of my notes for future scan posting. If you have these books, go check out the following: SS # 2 - Great art on the Lance Hall story and Solar Patrol is by Joe Simon SS # 7 - Jack Cole on Dickie Dean - Boy Inventor and the Claw vs. DD story is particularly wacked out as is the Silver Streak story SS # 11 - It has a Guardineer story What's this about Mighty Mouse scans? Do you happen to recall which thread they're on? I think I can find them again. We were struck by the quality of the story splash pages in those Timely Mighty Mouse stories in Terry-Toons Comics. Once the property moved to St John, the quality took a noted nose-dive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adamstrange Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Thanks for showing the splashes again, but there were some regular panel pages as well where I was very impressed with the story telling ability of the artist(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted September 10, 2007 Author Share Posted September 10, 2007 (edited) Here are some of my notes for future scan posting.

Here's a couple more suggestions for you to consider: "The Ivy Menace" by Tarpe Mills from AMF V2 # 6 and "Dickie Dare Fights the Gadget Octopus" from Silver Streak # 11. The Chuck Hardy and Mighty Man stories from the AMF are also possibly scan worthy. They're certainly strange enough.

selegue Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 ... It looks like you've got some great stories planned. Here's a couple more suggestions for you to consider: "The Ivy Menace" by Tarpe Mills from AMF V2 # 6 and "Dickie Dare Fights the Gadget Octopus" from Silver Surfer # 11. .... The truth comes out. BZ is a closet Silver Age fan!!! And I'd enjoy seeing more Tarpe Mills and Lilly Renée [sp?] stories too. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
