BangZoom Posted March 17, 2008 Author Share Posted March 17, 2008 Here's the first story from True Love Pictorial 3. The art looks familiar. Anyone recognize the work? The artwork looks very familiar to me, too. Reminds me of the work in DC comics in the 50's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Should I try to scan the Sheena origin page from Jumbo 2? I think Kirby did a lot of work in those early issues too. I'd love to see the Sheena page. Please post it!! OK, I guess I could try it the lazy way. Page from the Sheena story in Jumbo 2. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrooge Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 BZ, I don't think that I will convert anyone into a Mighty Mouse fan but I like the old stories. They are kind of silly in a Rocky and Bullwinkle sort of way. It is a little difficult to get the 384 page edition on the scanner but my copy is a little beat up and I can flatten it a little. bb Someone mentioned Mighty Mouse?

Here's a Prentice page from the Who's Who. Compare the guy at bottom right to the main figure in the splash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashrael Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Wow! That sure is a lot nicer than the only crusty copy Heritage ever sold....

ashrael Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Never have I seen that before or certainly read before!!! Thanks for posting these for all of us on your Anniversary!!! (thumbs u Thanks, BO. I know there probably aren't many Weird Tales fans here, but I figured there might be a few people who'd get a kick out of seeing such a historic pulp. Holy cow!!!....I've always been curious as to what a 1/1 issue looked like....late 1800's !!!...WoW!!!... PS: Is that the original cover???... Math isn't your strong point, is it? This is the first March 1923 issue. I read online that there is also a variant where the orange and black was reversed (which actually looks more correct than the "normal" issue).

BangZoom Posted March 17, 2008 Author Share Posted March 17, 2008 Someone mentioned Mighty Mouse? I love your Mighty Mouse collection. Are you collecting the entire run or just particular issues?

Aman619 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) I think the orange one was the error/mistake first print. This one looks like "normal coloring.. doesnt it? Edited March 17, 2008 by aman619 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
