BangZoom Posted October 2, 2007 Author Share Posted October 2, 2007 Thanks for the scans, Scrooge. I'm a big fan of Jack Cole's work but, unfortunately, I don't think his style is appreciated by most other collectors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Black Hand ® Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Thanks for the scans, Scrooge. I'm a big fan of Jack Cole's work but, unfortunately, I don't think his style is appreciated by most other collectors. Being an MLJ collector and a fan of Jack Cole's "Comet" I certainley appreciate his style. It's refreshing to see some of Quality's stuff here, for they do seem to be under represented on the boards. I think ounce for ounce Quality had by far superior stories and artwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead, here's a scan of Military Comics # 2. That Yankee Eagle Splash on the cover of # 2 is the splash of the story in issue # 1 - Great art on that feature. Cannifesque but not slavishly so. A nice change for once - Let me show it LARGE - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted October 2, 2007 Author Share Posted October 2, 2007 Great looking splash. The coloring that was used is especially effective in creating the mood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're all sobbing along with you, but that'll l'arn you not to loan out your funnybooks to the neighbor kids! (I actually thought that was a yawning icon until I saw it quoted as "cry".) Instead, here's a scan of Military Comics # 2. Super-bright copy, as usual! Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciorac Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Yank the Doodle wearing their WHITE undies outside their pants seems like a poor costume design decision to me --- especially considering their names! Jack lol #$%^&*( You made me look to see whether I typed "the" for "and"! Jack probably Mott the Hoople's buddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

selegue Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Red Ryder #4 Well done! I guessed that series was a possibility but GCD calls #4 Dell. What a confusing publishing history! Overstreet says that #6 is the first Dell issue. If you have the issues in hand, could you tell me the publisher in the indicia of #4 and 5? If there's a correction to be made, I'll send it to GCD. Tough quiz! Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicparadox Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 The first time I saw this cover, I thought that Green Lama was a blind superhero. Very strange eyes. Raboy, right? Jack And he appears to be taking phenytoin, which explains the gingival overgrowth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjpb Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I must confess - I just pulled up the galleries for long running Dell series on GCD until I found it, checking Popular and Super first, though OS listed no other publisher. They did for Red Ryder, and I just hoped it would be in one of the galleries. Without the clue I would have been - well - clueless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
