BB-Gun Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Jack, Here are a couple of scans to fill the time. BZ is probably working on that Ditko thread. The interior art for Dickie varied in quality I think but the stories were still strange. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pages here, esp. the splash, are nicely drawn. Some of the later Dicky stories (the few that I've seen) seem much more primitive. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 BZ, Check AE73 for a long article on Biro and some Zip scans on page 18. bb Alter Ego? I'll have to check eBay for back issues. The last copy I saw was # 10, along about 1970. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 Don't forget the important part: Are we going to get to see Dicky? "Whip" him out, BZ! Oh, you mean the comic strip? I have scans of them around here somewhere. I'll check the closets and under the rug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 BZ, Issue 73 is a fairly recent issue of Alter Ego. I think 74 may be out now or soon. I was happy to recently get a copy of issue 5 of the original series and scans of 7 which completed the first 11 issue run. I enjoyed the early issues and the nice art by Biljo White and Ron Foss but the new issues by Roy are filled with juicy histories of the artists and their recollection of the Golden Age. If you aren't reading it, then give it a chance. The only complaint that I have is that the issues aren't in color like the old CBM. But the articles have more depth and I think they are more accurately written. Good stuff. BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skypinkblu Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Bill , if *I* had a magic whip, I might have been tempted to use it on another thread, ..as it was, I think I might need an aspirin instead after reading it:) but I kept quiet:) It's nice and peaceful here:) From Jumbo 13, as per BangZoom's request for some photos:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
