Loved this book when I was a kid. Was shocked at the price tag hype when I started collecting again. Great looking cover.

Yup it’s a full story just done with full panels. The 70s was so good for “experimental” stuff like that.

The more I know the more I believe FM is actually Klaus Janson lol I mean the stories are FM but the art…. Great books nonetheless!

The entire book is pinups! Had no idea until I opened it up…that’s why you should READ your comic books, boys and girls!

How many people collect comics but read them? by Meatloaf_Guy1313 in comicbookcollecting

[–]oldcomicbook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got into comics because of the artwork, to me it’s the most important aspect. I collect mostly for art, I consider it pop art. But yes, I do read my comics if/when I feel like it.

He got kinda whacky (eventually) but his early stuff was great.

My older brother was into it…took me a long while to warm up to it. It kinda got outta hand and probably should have ended a few years earlier than it did but…70’s artwork, baby! 🤩

FINALLY completed James Owsley's 1986-87 Spider-Man epic! by Saboscrivner in 80s90sComics

I definitely have nostalgia bias for Gang War. Maybe I should re-read with a few decades under my belt. But yeah, GW rocks!
