BangZoom Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 This Quiz should be more of a challenge. Name the WWII comic where this battle scene is on the cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 What do think about doing the quizzes weekly at a set time? I'd be happy to do some of the quizzes at a set time every week. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what day of the week and what hour of the day would be best for most people? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 'Fess up, BZ. You're lusting after my Barney Baxter, aren't you? I guess it would be impossible to have too many Barney Baxters. Here's my copy. I see that they both have the distributors "A" marking in the same spot. They must be long lost cousins.

Here's my copy. I see that they both have the distributors "A" marking in the same spot. They must be long lost cousins. I get a a laugh out of how your first name is written in small letters in the puff of smoke, and the sweat beads and question marks next to the cockpits of the downed Nazi planes (that was the detail that gave away the answer for me, not the second picture you put up). Have you read the book? The "real" Frank Miller was a very good cartoonist, mixing a few "bigfoot" characters-- Gopher Gus on the left -- with more realistic ones. It's strip reprints, but the storyline is surprisingly strong. Most of the adventure is in northern Alaska and the Eskimos (Inuits? Aleuts? Tlingits? I forget) are handled well, not as "stupid aborigines" for comic effect, which would have been typical at the time. If I remember right, there's no dogfight with Nazi planes inside the book.

Point Five Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Those Wonderworld comics have some of the greatest cover images. I was at a family gathering and I was showing people those covers and no one cared! Am I alone here with those kind of non-reactions? I mean, I can appreciate what other people collect. Art, guns, coins, toys, etc. but I cannot understand the lack of appreciation by non collectors for some of those truly great cover images. All I ever get are value questions.Drives me mad. The response I hate is, "That's Nice." (Spoken in a certain tone that really means, "Maybe if I humor him, I can make a clean getaway.") A little late, but...

BB-Gun Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Another guest quiz selection from the golden age. Does anyone recognize this cover? While you are thinking about it, you can enjoy reading the Frank Miller strip from the back cover of Four Color 20. BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacentaur Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Does anyone recognize this cover? Catman 20 ...classic Hitler being strangled cover by Chas Quinlan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Correct! Catman is still a favorite of mine and some of the best golden age artist did the covers. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
