I completed my cover gallery for Bucky O'Hare.
I have conformed that all 5 issues have a bar code Newsstand variant.
There is also a variant of #1 that is labeled as special edition and it has no price shown on the cover.

I list the softcover TPB & hardcover as part of this series, but they may deserve their own listing since they technically came out 5 years before the series began. THE SC & HC reprint earlier stories that were printed in an anthology publication.


I may make a page for the DC/Thomson UK series that went much longer than the US series.


Bucky O'Hare #1 (Newsstand)


Bucky O'Hare #1 (Special Edition- No Price on the Cover)




Bucky O'Hare #2 (Newsstand)




Bucky O'Hare #3 (Newsstand)




Bucky O'Hare #4 (Newsstand)




Bucky O'Hare #5 (Newsstand)

All added, Well done in finding them Defiant1.
I left the HC and Soft Cover cause I didn't want them lost in the database. I think there fine where they are but thanks for the request.
Also, for some silly reason I had trouble using your #3 newsstand & Special edition pictures... I found another #3 but the special was harder to find. I did add one but its crap.
Try posting it again for me and I'll see if it works again or not.

I thought they were all png files. I spot checked and they were a mix of jpg & png. The special edition image was hosted on tumblr.com


Here's a jpg hosted on postimg.cc where the others usable images were stored.

At some point, I'll check what scans are showing for Armor (Vol. 1) & Captain Power. I have newsstand & Direct scans for those series' also.

Cyberrad (Vol. 1) has been been more of a challenge, but I think I have them all. I'd like to upgrade the quality of the images I've found. I don't think there is a newsstand version of #7. #1-6 are confirmed.


The CPG site has one of my images for a Cyberrad (Vol. 2) #1 which I call a newsstand version. I believe it to be a newsstand version solicited through the direct market without a hologram. I *think* that newsstand versions with a bar code from Continuity Comics ended sometime between 1991 & 1992 but I haven't pinned down when they stopped.


My web site list 2 comics that I've never actually seen. Megalith #0 with a red foil logo and CyberRad #1 (Vol. 2) with a gold foil logo but without hologram) Rik Offenberger listed the Megalith #0 with the red foil logo on a web site many years ago, but I never got an answer from him where the image had originated. He showed a red foil on the cover, but most people scanning comics know that all foil will scan as black due to the reflectivity of the foil. CyberRad #1 (Vol. 2) with a gold foil logo and without a hologram was solicited on Neal Adams site in 2002.


My Continuity site:

Here are some comics I actually photographed with a digital camera on a tripod facing down. I was frustrated with the foil not showing as silver and gold as they should.

That worked.
Added, Thanks.

Nice work you've done there Defiant1.
When your ready send them through.
As with your scans I notice the gold foil better then the silver. I did have that problem with SSM #189 silver and gold hologram and WoSM #90 silver and gold hologram, but they both are noticeable (well to a point).

It took a lot of repositioning them in different orientations to the light source. I wanted to show the foil color, the reflection of the foil, but no direct glare.
