This Brazilian EBAL TEC 400 probably had some punk kid scribbling on a paper directly above it. If I could go back in time and travel to Brazil I would give that kid a good spanking. You don't treat classic EBALS like this dammit!!!




Dutch FF52! T'Challa rises....




Tough Greek black battle cover! Greek FF112....

Actually, two of my favorite comics from my collection are foreigns. Here are two Rambo comics that I got from Argentina. The man holding them is David Morrell, the author of Rambo!!! One of my fb friends, and I'm SURE he is here, got them signed by him in Santa Fe, NM., for me. He actually wrote "del padre de Rambo" (the father of Rambo) and signed them!! I included some of the interior art. For me, it is the interior art of these two comics that astound me, especially the coloring!!

@Jesse_O I was waiting for ya to bust these out! Yup that's me Jesse! David Morrell was very cool... I talked to him about foreign stuff and he was fascinated. David really enjoyed seeing these... He told me stories about working with Stallone and a bunch of other neat stuff. Thanks for giving me that opportunity Jesse...

For some reason it appears some of my posts went in twice? Certainly wasn't planned?

What is this now? 3-4 years later.... I have yet to see another one. I'm kicking myself for not buying this. These MACC books are so tough. Especially this series.
The condition looks a lot better to me now in hindsight, haha!

I know bro, it hurt to pay as much as I did..... but I knew it was the only one I had ever seen for sale on Ebay. Rarity trumps condition in this game, but your older and wiser now son. I know you will never let me get away with a book like this that easy again! LOL

Seeing how hot the first Panther book is now, I wonder how much of a premium this edition could bring? Cool use of colors on that one.

@Sagii

Who knows most of these are relatively unknown to the market at large....

I have another 2 editions... a beat up Mexican Prensa and a pretty nice German.

You rarely see silver age Mexican stuff in this condition. This book would be considered nosebleed high grade... Prensa Daredevil #1




And now the very cool National Bookstore Filipino Xmen 101. Very few Filipino books survived the island.

The Spanish El SOl books were supplements to the Sol newspaper issues in Spain. Printed on cheap newsprint these books can be hard to find decent as well.... I love the editorial art decisions on covers. Some Classic covers were cropped like these two.... still other issue covers were scrapped completely for panels on the inside.







And probably my favorite Lebanese Arabic I currently own, rough but loved.....

Thanks for the interest!! I can definitely take closer pictures or scans. I'm currently in the process of unpacking everything after a move, but I DO know which box they are in!! It's just a matter of getting to it!! LOL What are you interested in exactly? I actually had to shrink the two interior scans to fit on the forum.
