Marvel Tales #95 – Marvel/Atlas Comics, March 1950 – Artist: Carl Burgos (questioned at comics.org). Marvel Tales #95 is such a stand out. A few years back I saw a very high grade copy at a con and the experience…
In a beautiful villa beside the sea, full of nooks and mystery, five sisters are living on their own since their parents died in a car accident—growing up together, sharing their grief, everyday experiences, and love. Charlie is the oldest;…
X-Men #94 – Marvel Comics, August 1975 – Artist: Gil Kane. I love the combination of key issue and iconic cover. Sometimes I’m not sure if it’s the keyness of the issue that makes the cover seem iconic after but…
Tales to Astonish #93 – Marvel Comics, July 1967 – Artist: Marie Severin. Such an iconic cover from Marie Severin. TTA #93 has always stood out in piles of Marvel Silver Age. Today in the Marvel U there are few…
Every week Comic Culture hosts Chris Owen and Walter Durajlija talk the comic book talk. So kick back, relax and enjoy this week’s Comic Culture. Oh, and please make sure you go out and support your local comic book shop.…
Having put Heroes of the Home Front and the first edition of the WECA Comic Book Price Guide to bed last summer and having the fall and winter to relax from the scramble of getting these two projects together and…
House of Secrets #92 – DC Comics, July 1971 – Artist: Bernie Wrightson (pencils and inks) I feel like I’m cheating with this one but how do I not pick it? A great comic book cover matching each day of…
New York World’s Fair 1939, DC Comics, April 1939. My pal Mike and I were talking Superman the other day, we’d just picked up a nice run of Sups from #1 to #11 almost complete to sell on our I.C.E.…
The Toronto Comic Con was a couple of weeks ago, and as usual, I had a list of items I wanted to pick up to complete some runs or just to pick up for the sake of reading runs I…
Brave and the Bold #91 – DC Comics, August/September 1970 – Artist: Nick Cardy (pencils and inks). So I actually spent time looking for some lame blank sketch variant #91 as my April Fools post, when I could not find…
Wings Comics #90 – Fiction House, February 1948 – Artist: Bob Lubbers. I’m back on the girl in the impossibly precarious situation wagon and there’s no arguing this one fits the bill. Wings #90 has been super hot on the…
Famous Funnies #89 – Eastern Color, December 1941 – Artist: Harry G. Peter. This cover by Harry G. Peter just explodes off the page, it was hard to ignore once I’d seen it. I’ve never seem an actual copy of…
Dark Horse Presents #88 – Dark Horse Comics, August 1994 – Artist: Mike Mignola. I’ve been looking at a lot of covers over these past few months and one era that has been disappointing has been the 1990s so when…
A gathering of wonderful art spotted by yours truly these last few days: Cheung, Morales, Bertram, Chaykin, Buscema, Bolton.
Avengers #87 – Marvel Comics, August 1959 – Artist: John Buscema. Another striking cover from the mighty, mighty John Buscema. A few days ago I was lamenting how hard it was finding a cover, today I’m lamenting how hard it…
From IDW Publishing. The EC Covers Artist’s Edition Portfolio is available only from IDW Publishing and features 8 classic EC Covers, each one printed on heavy stock and printed to the same exacting standards as all Artist’s Editions: Crime Suspenstories…
Green Lantern #86 – DC Comics, October/November 1971, Artist – Neal Adams. I didn’t want to do it but I had to. Green Lantern #85 and #86 are inseparable and unique in that they are a continuation of the same…
Green Lantern #85 – DC Comics, August/September 1971 – Artist: Neal Adams. Controversial, shocking and much sought after. One of Neal Adams’ signature covers. A great comic book cover matching each day of the year, 1 through 365. Please chime…
Fantastic Four Annual #1, Marvel Comics 1963. Ok here’s a first for Comic Book Daily (I think). After much deliberation I’ve decided to dust off Mike Huddleston’s old Overvalued Overstreet #14 featuring Fantastic Four Annual #1, which he posted almost…
Star Spangled War Stories #84 – DC Comics, August 1959 – Artist: Irv Novick. I had Wings and Jumbo on the list but went with a personal favorite, Star Spangled War Stories #84. I like it when a character is…
