Dark Horse Presents #127, Dark Horse Comics, December 1977 – Artist: Dan Brereton. What a great cover and I missed it on my 1st comb through. I actually had Kid Colt Outlaw #127 as my pick until Chris Meli showed…

Undervalued Spotlight #444
Amazing Spider-Man #172, Marvel Comics, September 1977. This week’s Undervalued Spotlight is so obvious that it’s a wonder it’s still stalled on the launch pad. Make no mistake though this week’s Undervalued Spotlight, Amazing Spider-Man #172, will soon blast off…
Covered 365: Day 126
Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen #126, DC Comics, January 1970 – Artist: Curt Swan. I never thought I’d pick a Jimmy Olsen cover. Don’t laugh but I cannot remember ever holding this comic, I mean I must have but if I…
Covered 365: Day 125
Amazing Spider-Man #125, Marvel Comics, October 1973 – Artist: John Romita. Free Comic Book Day today at the shop, crazy busy and I’m a bit winded from the hard fought day. It might be my fatigue but I was disappointed…
Covered 365: Day 124
Girl’s Romances #124, DC Comics, April 1967 – Artist: Jay Scott Pike. Wholly molly, this post is being taken over by Westerns and Romance! To my defense I’ve only had 2 romance covers in my last 18 posts and both…
Covered 365: Day 123
Four Color #123, Dell Comics, October 1946 – Artist: Tom McKimson. I mentioned in the comments section of yesterdays post that I thought these early Four Color books were underappreciated then lo and behold this cover pops up on Day…
Covered 365: Day 122
Amazing Spider-Man #122, Marvel Comics, July 1973 – Artist: John Romita. Everything there was missing on the cover of Amazing Spider-Man #121 is there in spades on Amazing Spider-Man #122, the action, the drama, the villain, the girl, the scene…

Covered 365: Day 121
Falling in Love #121, DC Comics, February 1971 – Artist: Tony DeZuniga. I remember back when I was thinking about doing this project, I had some issues already picked way in advance. I wrote a quick list down, Surfer #4,…
Covered 365: Day 120
Heart Throbs #120, DC Comics, June/July 1969 – Artist: Neal Adams. I’m not going to apologize for this being a Romance Comics. The cover to Heart Throbs #120 is as scary as a pre-code horror and of course in many…
Undervalued Spotlight #443
Hot Rod Comics #1, Fawcett Publications, November 1951. This week’s Undervalued Spotlight came to me as I noticed myself checking out comics from a long forgotten genre while I was looking for worthy covers for my Covered 365 project. I…
Covered 365: Day 119
Marvel Tales #119, Atlas Comics, December 1949 – Artist: Sol Brodsky. I found a half dozen strong contenders on Day #119 and went with Marvel Tales #119 for its deliciously nasty cover. Day 119 will be the last day of…
Covered 365: Day 118
Four Color Comics #118, Dell Comics, September 1942 – Artist: unknown. I’m cheating here and paying respects to the great Tomahawk covers we’ve seen the last couple of days. Though Tomahawk #118 is a great cover but it’s another angle…
Covered 365: Day 117
Tomahawk #117, DC Comics, July/August 1968 – Artist: Neal Adams. I feel like one of those co-eds on a Charlton Romance cover, forever changing her mind. With apologies to Gerald I’m still holding to my self imposed ban on L.B…
Covered 365: Day 116
Tomahawk #116, DC Comics, May/June 1968 – Artist: Neal Adams. You cannot take your eyes off Tomahawk #116, the colors, the hues, the tones, the action, the mood, Neal knocked it out of the park with this one. While we’re…
Covered 365: Day 115
Captain America #115, Marvel Comics, July 1969 – Artist: Marie Severin. Captain America #115 has always need one of my favorite covers, simple yet striking, an easy stand out. We’re really starting to post some great picks in the comments…
Covered 365: Day 114
Blue Bolt #114, Star Publications, August 1952 – Artist: L.B. Cole. Guys!! Don’t yell, just hear me out. I looked and I looked, compared and compared because I dared not role out 2 Coles in a row (though we are…

Covered 365: Day 113
Blue Bolt #113, Star Publications, May 1952 – Artist: L.B. Cole. I was actually kind of nervous with this one. I know a couple of you guys were pointing to other books and I even went back (I had this…
Undervalued Spotlight #442
X-Men #14, Marvel Comics, November 1965. Some X-Men books are enjoying some nice value appreciation lately so I thought I’d scour the catalog and find us a sleeper. I was never a big fan of the X-Men movies but there…
