Seems like a nice haul of the three Batman books for the price seeing that one is the 155 issue. Easy to spend over $50 on the other two. Sweet deal.

Thanks HR smile

Can never have enough copies of Superman's Girlfriend Lois Lane #70. Nice upgrade Robbie. Getting deals on eBay for that book has gotten harder the past year. Hope your lcs treated you right as always.

Hey HR smile

I think it's funny that one of the key SA Batbooks is actually a Lois Lane smile]]> Sun, 20 Mar 2016 22:05:30 GMT https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=5654 Message from Robbie jokerbangedquinn wrote:

Two nice books there. Still need Avengers #55 for my collection. And considering both of those are 50 years old, those are in great shape.

Thanks Cap smile
White background covers show all the dirt. And they go yellow when unhappy with their storage conditions.
Black Panther has a goofy mask on that cover.]]> Sat, 05 Mar 2016 20:54:30 GMT https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=5654 Message from CapnDoug Sat, 05 Mar 2016 20:02:14 GMT https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=5654 Message from Robbie

Frazetta met Roy Krenkel in art school. They worked together on some EC sci-fi books and later they did the ERB paperback covers for Ace Books.

I have one Krenkel inked sketch.

a pencil rough for Chessmen of Mars (book 5 in the series). The centerpiece of my ERB related art.
it's a freakin Frazetta. smile Frank Jr had someone disassemble and auction off pieces from one of his dad's sketchbooks to raise money for the Frazetta museum.
(White Indian is on the back.)


Wow, Frazetta drawing...Cannot get any better.

That's what I thought when I saw it for money I could afford. It is the most I've paid for art ($1200).

My comic collection started with Star Wars and John Carter, Warlord of Mars. John Carter art is extra special to me.]]> Fri, 04 Mar 2016 06:47:47 GMT https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=5654 Message from Gilgandra Robbie wrote:

Great stuff Robbie & a nice newsstand copy of Wolvie #1

That came out a couple months after I got my first car. I was driving around a lot, looking for places that had comics & stuff. No idea which newsstand it came from.]]> Thu, 03 Mar 2016 21:23:15 GMT https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=5654 Message from Gilgandra Thu, 03 Mar 2016 00:28:38 GMT https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=5654 Message from sargon Wed, 02 Mar 2016 22:44:34 GMT https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=5654 Message from Robbie

A nice Zulli page from The Dreaming. It has Cain and his dragon. I first saw them in the pages of Plop! drawn by Sergio. They look different

Another forum, another thread.
Wonder if the admins have figured out that it's a good idea to test the "restore from backup" feature. Make sure it works before you need it...

anyhow... smile

I've been reorging the comic room. So, I'm looking at fun stuff I haven't seen for awhile.
Here's a couple that I bought off the stand.



The colors on the spine make it look beat to hell at 1st glance. Not a 9.8 bit I'm pretty happy.





huh. Frank signed this one.
Neat. I forgot about that. It's one of my all-time favorite covers.]]> Wed, 02 Mar 2016 20:48:57 GMT
