selegue Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Yank and Doodle wearing their WHITE undies outside their pants seems like a poor costume design decision to me --- especially considering their names! Jack ...and this is the cover to Prize Comics # 24, which is the issue that contained the Green Lama story that Scrooge posted earlier today.

selegue Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 The first time I saw this cover, I thought that Green Lama was a blind superhero. Very strange eyes. Raboy, right? Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sal Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 The comic books look extra nice in mylar sleeves but they're so stiff I'm afraid I'll end up damaging a comic if I want to take them out to look at the stories. pull the board out, not the comic. if you set the thing flat, and use your fingertips to pull just on the backing board, the book will come out with it, and no risk at all of damage. you put them back in the same way. book and board together (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 That Gloria Glamour seems to be involved in lots of mischief. So many things tied those stories that I successfully forgot to mention that element as well. Thanks for noticing. My work was not in vain ... although, one then begs the question ... did Crossen also write The King of Darkness? It is just bizarre to see so many common elements across these 3 stories (and that I came across them over so short a period of time). Anyway, congrats eagle-eyed one. Good catch.

This way you'd have double protection & ease of removing when you want to read them. Taking the comics out of the mylites using the backing board with the comic would be advisable as stated above.

MrBedrock Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Has anyone read the story in Prize 20? It is an unlisted crossover story where all the featured characters team up to hunt down Frankenstein. A really cool, little known classic.

It's kind of a sad story, really, because Briefer's Frankenstein isn't a bad guy at all, yet everybody's whuppin' on him. Kind of like poor ol' Casper the Friendly Ghost or the "misunderstood Hulk". Do you think that Briefer drew the whole story, or is it a jam by the features' individual artists? The General and the Corporal (who?) certainly seem to be drawn by a different hand.

The General and the Corporal (who?) certainly seem to be drawn by a different hand. I was wondering the same last when I prepped it for posting. It would have been a nightmare to pull off unless they were all working in the same shop. Were the Prize books sub-contracted to a shop or were they using freelancers? I assume they didn't have people on staff. I think it's simply a case where Briefer shows how versatile he is. One hand in this story. In the meantime, here's Jack Cole doing his stuff (and boy, how good is he! Maybe people in General will vote him off next though since he is an unknown to most I guess ...) in Military # 1 - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
