Jayman Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Oooo...that's so much better than the back cover! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Just saw this Thanksgiving cover. And I noticed that Bob Fuje did a Shock Gibson story for Harvey. This Speed issue (38) was a treat to read. Thanks to goldenagecomics.uk. Harvey superhero comics are way undervalued. They had great covers and really good interior art.

BB-Gun Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 And this cover was for sale on Heritage. I like this splash page from Speed 35. bb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted November 23, 2008 Author Share Posted November 23, 2008 Thanks, BB. I'll have to do some looking to see if I can turn up some more Thanksgiving covers. Does anyone know of any Golden Age Thanksgiving stories? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted November 23, 2008 Author Share Posted November 23, 2008 I think this is the only Thanksgiving cover I already have scanned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiverbones Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Great Thanksgiving covers! I never saw the comic comics one before. That Fuje splash is a knockout! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted November 23, 2008 Author Share Posted November 23, 2008 Great Thanksgiving covers! I never saw the comic comics one before. I don't think it's a very well known comic. I can imagine the confusion when collectors of that title go around to dealers at conventions and ask, "Do you have any Comic Comics?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted November 23, 2008 Author Share Posted November 23, 2008 Comic Comics has lots of great strips. One of the best is Basil Wolverton's, Mystic Moot. It looks a lot like Crumb's work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiverbones Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 Wow! I had heard of Mystic Moot, but didn't know where it was printed. Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciorac Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Thanks, BB. I'll have to do some looking to see if I can turn up some more Thanksgiving covers. Does anyone know of any Golden Age Thanksgiving stories? This is my favorite Thanksgiving themed cover. I always found it funny and disturbing at the same time.

BangZoom Posted November 24, 2008 Author Share Posted November 24, 2008 This is my favorite Thanksgiving themed cover. I always found it funny and disturbing at the same time. Yikes. That is disturbing. What is the "Dot and Dan in Santaland" story advertised on the cover? Is that a newspaper comic strip? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
