The Closet from 20,000 Fathoms |

The 3rd volume of the reprint series. By all accounts, these
tales of The Avenger were written by Paul Ernst under the house name of Robeson. 1st
Printing from 1972.
|
The inside back cover of Fantasy
Classics #5 had this table of contents for issue #6. Unfortunately, it was
never published.
|
Just found in the back of the closet: Vol. 2 of the Dennis
McMillan Fredric Brown series. Paperback edition from 1984.
|
George Challis was one of the pseudonyms for Frederick Faust,
the creator of Dr. Kildare. You might also recognize one of his other pen names: Max
Brand!
|
With the 6th issue, Black changed the format to about equal
amounts of text and comics. Although the comic reprints were missed, the informative
text more than made up for them. Art by Baker, Mayo, Kubert, and Shores, among
others.
|
The cover does not do justice to the wackiness of the contents.
Kirby started his run on the title with #133.
|
Probably the neatest special Marvel ever produced. Not only do
you get Bill Everett on the Daredevil story and Kirby on the Avengers, but the
Torch/Sub-Mariner story is from Marvel Mystery Comics
#8.
|
A collection from 1947. Russell was widely printed in the 40s,
but is virtually forgotten today.
|
Before he did Ducks, Rosa chronicled the ongoing saga of Lance
Pertwillaby, beginning in 1971 for his college newspaper. Later episodes ran in the
Rocket's Blast Comicollector. This is a reprint collection from 1983.
|
By this point, Comic-Con International had grown to fill a good
portion of the San Diego Convention Center and it was nearly impossible to explore
the dealer's room in one day. It also had become too darned crowded for my
taste.
|
A reprint volume from Blackthorne done in 1985. Contains 5
Sheena stories, filler material and one Tiger Girl story.
|
I won't even comment on the ridiculous scenario presented
here, except to say that it is part of the Weisinger charm.
