| Part of the enjoyment I receive from revisiting my collection is running across issues that appeared to be special to me at one time and then remembering why...like this DELL FOUR COLOR #173. It states on the cover "Introducing for the first time...FLASH GORDON COMICS especially written and drawn for this book." Up to this time I believe all of the FLASH GORDON comics contained reprints of the daily and Sunday newspaper strips. I guess this might make this the first FLASH GORDON Comic Book.  |

| In my box of remainder comics are a group of coverless comics that suffered from constant moving. It's been a long time since I went through them. One of them is DYNAMIC COMICS #16 which contains a marijuana story with YANKEE BOY and "THE REEFER KING". Next was WONDER COMICS #7 with the GRIM REAPER fighting the NAZIS in Yugoslavia. And finally a copy of PATCHES #6 a ARCHIE type of comic from Orbit Publication. Looked up the covers on MYCOMICSHOP...don't remember them. |

| One more interesting find in my group of coverless comics is a LEADING COMICS #12 from 1944. It contains a character I never really paid much attention too...as a matter of fact I forgot all about him. THE CRIMSON AVENGER a member of "THE SEVEN SOLDIERS OF VICTORY" or "THE LAW'S LEGIONNAIRES". It looks like THE CRIMSON AVENGER appeared in early DETECTIVE COMICS but other than this LEADING COMICS I never remember reading any other stories about him. |

Quote:Originally Posted by Nearmint67 There was a series of figurines featuring cartoon characters but no store ever seemed to have all of them. I remember getting a POPEYE and a WIMPY, they had one of the PHANTOM but I didn't have the extra dollar. There could have been one of the CRIMSON AVENGER but I never saw one. |
