I've had this book for quite awhile stuck in a pile of other bagged and boarded books. Never got around to scanning or posting iPad images of it. This copy of AIRBOY #52, June '48, has a spectacular Zolnerowich cover (love the skull shaped building). It's actually the first time I've thumbed through this book since purchasing it. Wow! Great stories, bone white PQ and NM/M in appearance! Definitely need to get this in a CBCS holder soon...    . |

Here are a couple of later AIRBOY comics that are among the key issues of the run. These two issues, #57 (Dec. '48) and #58 (Jan. '49), feature the rat army invasion which, in addition to being superbly creepy, is unusual in that it's a continued story...   . |

No longer in my collection, but the Church copy of Hillman's Air Fighters #2, the origin and first appearance of AIRBOY used to be among my GA keys...  . |

| @martymann That Rangers cover is killer. Alas, I only have two war era copies of Harvey's ALL NEW Comics, but both are pure Schomburg mayhem (and #9 is the Edgar Church copy)...    . |

Quote:Originally Posted by martymannhere is a tough 100 pager. I have never seen a better copy. Although one has a few minor issues, the cover itself is pretty clean. This was in a small group of comics I bought unseen. A guy said he had about 80 old comics in descent shape he had purchased at a garage sale. Told me he was passing through a town and saw a sign advertising a garage sale for the following day. He stopped and asked to look around because he wouldn't be there the following day. While he stacked up a pile of random items he said he saw a box in garage not for sale that said "Aunt's funny books." Anyhow he threw the box in the pile of items he had accumulated and gave the owner a 100 bucks for his pile and drove off. I gave him $800 for the box of 80 books after he sent me a few pictures of some of the books. Anyhow this Mighty Mouse was one I got in there. Most were in the VG+ to VF- condition with a couple in Vf+ range.  |

Nice suggestion, Sagii! Underwater cover cats, I can do that one too...   Since my wife and I are departing from Galveston this morning on a cruise ship, this CAT is hoping to remain above water! . |

| @martymann Sweet book Marty! As a Timely guy, it's a real stretch to come up with anything resembling Bob Kane's seminal character. In order to come close I'd have to put these three books in a blender...    ...and it still wouldn't come out right! |
