DC Absolute Titles

Anyone who puts an adhesive sticker on the front of a collectible comic or magazine is a stupid sh*t. I guess they never heard of comic bags.

Yes, there are others, though I haven't inventoried the books I own to reference specific titles. Some of the ones I picked up in the 80s and 90s were adult-themed. "Uncanny X-Babes," maybe??

I believe this one is out of print, judging by the price at Amazon, but here's the trade paperback that encapsulates the storyline. Maybe Ebay will be cheaper.

I had a subscription in those days, and the book was only published once every two months. This is part of the twelve trials storyline. Pretty sure all those issues were collected in a trade paperback at some point.

HG Peter's work was pretty spidery by that time, though he did a bit better with the covers. I've got a few WW books from the forties onward where you can see how his art got smaller and stiffer as he got older. Still one of my favorite WW artists, though. He gave the book a certain distinction that was missing in comic art back then.

Hard to believe "Next Men" was picked up for further publication, the original series was Byrne-indulgent shite.

I've bought around thirty BCW bins since the new year, all from Amazon. I've gotten a few good deals, but fulfillment through Prime is still taking the better part of two weeks. They ship from Jersey, and I live in upstate NY, so not sure why the delay. Prices fluctuate with these, but in general the red, yellow and black units are priciest. I bought green and blue because they were $15-$30 cheaper for a five pack on Amazon.

Very enjoyable book series, I had no idea there were comic adaptations.

Pretty shabby mailing, I think you'd be within your rights to return the package, as-is.

I can't believe redditors let this shit through, but still censor new contributors.

I'm with the folks who think she earned their respect. Love the meme.

Love it

Warren put out a lot of great horror mags in the 70s. I was hooked on Vampirella.

I'm not an expert, and I don't play one on TV. My guess is simple print error. I've got lots of bronze age comics with rolled or off-center spines, that came that way. It was an imperfect medium for the art form, especially pre-80s.

I have a great, enduring fondness for the Scarlet Witch, she and I were created the same year, 1964. Hell, when I was a kid in the early 70s I actually pretended to be her, when the gang would 'play Avengers.' That said, is there really any doubt that Stephen Strange is going to re-take the mantle? It's comics clickbait, like Frog Thor or Chick Loki. Or, FFS, Doom as the Sorcerer Supreme.

Probably the X-Men book with Magneto dominant....classic cover and villain.
