*Marvel: Three consecutive quality issues of the Fantastic Four from the Bute Collection this week. #29 features an adventure with the Watcher and the Red Ghost & his Super-Apes; #30 has the first appearance of Diablo; #31 is a return engagement with the Mole Man, introducing Sue and Johnny’s father.
PICTURED: FANTASTIC FOUR
#29 FN- p £105 Nice glossy pence printed copy with strong cover colours, tight, firm staples and supple, near-white pages. Minor edge wear, very minor corner blunting and just a few spine ticks that break colour. 
#30 VG/FN p £55 1st Diablo. Glossy unmarked cover with strong colours; pence printed. Tight, firm staples and supple, near-white pages. Minor edge and spine wear. Some soft creases extend horizontally from the spine for a few cms, but only break colour on the spine itself.
#31 FN/VF £150 Beautiful clean glossy copy with black background. Great colours. Tight, firm staples and supple, white to off-white pages. Very minor wear to top edge, with a very faint indentation over the logo. Tiny chips off top right corner margins of rear pages.

*Dell: Although heavily influenced by film and TV, for which they produced thousands of adaptations and spin-offs, Dell actually produced comics in a wide range of genres, as shown here. Looney Tunes features the beloved Warner Bros cartoon characters, Naza and Nukla represent opposite ends of the heroic spectrum, the former a stone age warrior and the latter a futuristic space age hero, Peter Gunn is a TV crime drama starring the titular detective, the Phantom Planet is a pure space opera film and Twice Told Tales is an adaptation of the Vincent Price horror film.

*Western: Also from the Midas Collection this week, two early issues of Western Comics, one of DC’s most prominent western titles from the late 1940s to the early 1960s. Star of the show was the Wyoming Kid, who we think appeared in every issue; but there were lots of other recurring cowboys along the way, including Vigilante in #3 and Nighthawk in #8, the two issues on offer here. Both in pretty nice nick for comics from the 194os.
PICTURED: WESTERN COMICS
#3 VG+ £60 Clean, square copy with nice colours and little wear. Tight, firm staples and white to off-white pages. Tiny nick without loss to centre right edge of cover.
#8 VG £55 Origin Wyoming Kid; 2 pages of Rodeo Queens pin-ups. Clean, square copy with nice colours, firm staples and towards off-white pages. Tiny nick at bottom spine and a very small amount of chipping at right edge.

*Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror: A very rare horror title. Bubastis (now called Zagazig) is a city in Egypt that was a centre for the worship of the cat-headed goddess of the home, Bast. Many mummified cats have been found within the ancient city. Taking a lax approach to archaeological and theological accuracy, Derek Hyde-Chambers’ story has a small group of actors reviving the worship of Bast with terrifying results. A prime example of real schlock horror. Featuring the worst example of feline taxidermy ever on the cover, this is the first UK edition of the book in paperback. The few copies we’ve seen on sale have been priced between £80 (low grade) up to £150.
‘The Ancient Egyptians were among the first practitioners of the Black Arts. Obsessed with death and its trappings, so much still survives from those days: the images of Egyptian animal gods, mummies, and burial chambers. Bubastis was one of the important gods. Its form was that of a black cat with powerful jaws and claws, and a small group of actors in southern France find that the old legends of Bubastis’ power are not fantasy. The ancient evil is not yet dead, and can still reach a finger into today, possessing many with dark secrets.’
Nice firm copy with just minor wear at edges and a reading crease at spine.

*TV/Film Tie-Ins: I’m sure many of you will remember the series V  from the 1980s, where reptilian aliens in human guise invaded and took over Earth, leading to a running battle with the resistance. Really just the second world war in occupied France transposed into a contemporary American setting, with plenty of action and adventure and a minimum of science fiction. I can recall both the gross-out moment of the aliens in human guise swallowing mice whole, plus the alien leader Diana, who was particularly nasty. We have four of the spin-off novels from the series fresh into stock.

*DC: Also from the Midas Collection this week, three consecutive issues of Batman from 1952.
PICTURED: BATMAN
#70 FA £55 Robot cover. Features a Penguin story, the Crime Academy and a robot cop. Cover by Win Mortimer; art by Bob Kane with Lew Sayre Schwartz, Curt Swan. Much chipping and many losses around all edges, particularly bottom. Off lower staple, with spine split right up to it. Cover pulled on top staple, but hanging on. Staples firm at centrefold. Dust shadow along right edge. Water stain lower right edge and earlier page margins. SOLD
#71 FA/GD £70 Stories include a prison for members of law enforcement, Commissioner Gordon trying to uncover Batman’s identity and the mysterious Mr Cipher. Cover by Win Mortimer; art by Bob Kane with Lew Sayre Schwartz, Dick Sprang. Cover appears to be glued on at spine. Small tears with chips out. Firm staples at centrefold, decent off-white pages. SOLD
#72 VG+ £265 Features the Jungle Batman, the Maskers (who all wear masks) and the Death-Cheaters Club. Cover by Win Mortimer; art by Bob Kane with Lew Sayre Schwartz, Dick Sprang, Jim Mooney. Nice mid-grade copy with only slight wear. Cover is very slightly pulled at both staples, but firmly attached, centrefold loose. No other specific defects. White to off-white pages. 

*Marvel: In the early 1970s, with the supernatural craze at its height, Marvel sought ever-more ingenious ways to produce horror/mystery series which got around the then-Draconian censorship of the Comics Code Authority. One such was Ghost Rider, a retooling of a former Western hero as a stunt-riding Satanic minion (obviously!). After a short but successful run in Marvel Spotlight, Ghost Rider, who notwithstanding his devilish empowerment usually acted heroically, moved to his own series under the aegis of Gary Friedrich, Tom Sutton and Syd Shores, achieving a very respectable 80+ run, and not even two truly execrable movies starring Nicolas Cage have managed to dent his ongoing popularity! This pence printed copy of Ghost Rider #1 is beautifully glossy and colourful, with supple white pages and firm, tight staples. The cover is clean, with very minor edge wear and a faint, tiny crease across the bottom right corner which just breaks colour. There are also two indentation marks at bottom edge which are very faint but look like finger impressions. But still a glorious copy. 
PICTURED: GHOST RIDER #1 FN+ p £300

*Marvel: We reach the final two issues of the Good Doctor’s run of the original X-Men series this week. #26 features the climax of our mutant chums’ encounter with the embodiment of the Mayan god Kukulcan, an issue with severely limited UK distribution due to a dock strike. #58, drawn by Neal Adams, has the debut of Havok in costume.
PICTURED: X-MEN
#26 FN- £35 Nice copy with good colour and white pages. Firm staples. Just very minor edge wear with a couple of tiny soft creases at bottom right corner, faintly breaking colour. SOLD
#58 FN p £110 Pence printed. Solid copy with strong colours. Very minor handling and right edge wear; slight corner blunting. Firm staples and supple white pages. 

*IW/Super: We continue with our series of updates from that most esoteric publisher IW/Super. IW Publications was a short-lived comic book publisher in the late 1950s and early 1960s, named for the company’s owner Israel Waldman. Comics were published under both the IW and Super imprints and were notable for publishing unauthorised Golden Age reprints of other company’s properties. Usually these companies were out of business, but not always. Basically, it seemed to be whatever they could get their hands on that determined the esoteric nature of their output. Thus you get super-heroes, war, romance, western, funny animals, crime, horror, science fiction and just about every genre within their pages. Full details of what was reprinted in what are listed in our website catalogue. NB usually with newly-drawn covers. Over the next few months, we’ll be presenting a series of issues from this publisher. A mixed bag this week, with four different titles, including Star Feature, which I’ve never seen a copy of before.

*Boys’ Adventure & War Comics: Space Comics (which for some reason that I haven’t been able to discover) started at #50 and lasted until #81 and starred Captain Valiant, Ace of the Interplanetary Patrol, in a comic devised and created by Mick Anglo, stalwart of British comics in the 1950s/60s. This is a tough to find series and we’re delighted to have both the second and a later issue new into stock this week, although I doubt they’ll be with us for long. Good to see that the good captain sported a rather natty tie as part of his outer space uniform.

*Crime, Spies & Sleaze: We’re continuing to introduce the new layout for our books categories, with an image for each book. This week, we return to our Crime, Spies & Sleaze category, for the second part of our inventory for the formidable crime, mystery and thriller author Edgar Wallace. Edgar Wallace died at 56 in 1932 (during the script drafting for the original King Kong film), but despite his relatively short life, had a reputation for being very prolific. One of his publishers claimed that a quarter of all books in England were written by him. As well as journalism, Wallace wrote screen plays, poetry, historical non-fiction, 18 stage plays, 957 short stories and over 170 novels, 12 in 1929 alone. More than 160 films have been made of Wallace’s work. I can remember growing up with re-runs of his characters The Four Just Men (who had their own TV series), plus the Edgar Wallace Mystery Hour, an anthology series of his mysteries and thrillers. Later, there was The Mind Of Mr J G Reeder, a detective series in 1969-1971. So Wallace’s popularity continued way beyond his death, although it has faded somewhat in the 21st Century, with few of his books still in print. His output earned him the title ‘The Man Who Wrote Too Much’ and I can recall in one of Agatha Christie’s Tommy & Tuppence novels, there was a reference to a bookshelf with a ‘yard of Edgar Wallace’. We continue an impressive inventory of Wallace in our re-listings this week, including editions published in his lifetime, which are among the oldest books we have. Condition notes and more about each book in our catalogue. Final part of this author’s works coming soon.

*DC: From the Midas Collection this week, the 10th Anniversary issue of ‘the World’s Greatest Adventure Character’ Superman #53 from 1948, featuring the third telling of the origin of Superman in the lead story with script by Bill Finger and art by Wayne Boring, who also contributed the iconic cover showing the destruction of Krypton and the escape of the baby Kal-El in his rocket. Back-up stories drawn by Al Plastino see the Man Of Steel back in ancient Egypt and battling modern day pirates. This is a relatively good-looking copy with some specific defects: the spine is taped with very narrow clear tape; the bottom half of the right edge has narrow but pervasive chipping, which fortunately does not impinge on the black circle of space in the cover design; there is a thumbnail-sized corner off the bottom spine on the back cover. Very slight spine roll, but virtually no creases. Pages are a nice quality off-white. Cover colours are strong.
PICTURED: SUPERMAN #53 FA £195 SOLD

*Marvel: One of the less often seen of the classic Lee/Ditko Spideys is Amazing #18, where our hero comes up against the Sandman and has a crisis of conscience about his role as a super-hero. 1st appearance of Ned Leeds. With cameos from all Peter Parker’s cast, most of Spidey’s villains and in fact almost all the Marvel super-hero canon at that time, this is an issue that deserves more popularity. This is a CGC encased copy with a pence stamp, graded at 2.0 (GD). Universal blue label (unrestored). Case perfect. Off-white pages. CGC Code: 3954511008.
PICTURED: AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #18 CGC 2.0 GD p £100

*Marvel: Five classic issues of Strange Tales from the Good Doctor this week towards the end of the first run of this title, from #160-164. With art by Steranko, Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD tangles with the Yellow Claw in this sequence, while Dr Strange encounters denizens of various mystic realms, including Baron Mordo, the Living Tribunal and Nebulous, Lord Of The Planets Perilous.

*Girls’ Comics: A chance to pick up two rare Girls’ comics this week, all the rarer for being complete with their original Free Gifts.
1) Jackie. The quintessential Girl’s comic/magazine Jackie. In 1964, Jackie was launched to bridge female readers between Bunty and Woman’s Own, a brief playtime with the ‘England Swings’ zeitgeist of the day, before girls were expected to settle into consumerist conformism. This debut issue, 11 Jan 1964, features Pin-Ups of Cliff, Elvis and the Beatles, Perfume Tips for a More Kissable You, Dreamy Picture Love Stories and Way-Out Exclusives on all the Popsters – for pity’s sake, what more could you want? Well, how about the original Free Gift – a ‘Twin Heart’ Love Ring – still sealed in its original packaging, never having had a chance to turn anyone’s finger green in the intervening decades? Plus – the Power! The Fury! The senses-shattering debut of Cathy and Claire, Jackie’s indefatigable advice page oracles, dispensing wisdom on bras, boys, and (hushed voice) ladyproblems. Jackie became a watchword for a generation, not bowing out until 1993 and is well-remembered today. This Jackie #1 is FN+, just falling short of a higher grade on account of a tiny amount of upper right soft corner creasing. The Free Gift, never opened, is NM. (Our thanks to Will Morgan for this comprehensive write-up).
2) Twinkle. ‘The new picture paper specially for little girls’ launched in 1968, with the star power of Nurse Nancy, Betty Bright, Sally Sweet, Patsy the Panda and lots more. The age of its target audience has meant that relatively few of the #1 issues of this title have survived, let alone a FN unread copy as here, complete with its Free Gift, a St Christopher Charm Bracelet which comes in its original envelope.
PICTURED: BOTH SOLD

*Marvel: From the Bute Collection this week, three excellent consecutive issues of Marvel’s first family. #37 is a cosmic outer space story featuring the Skrulls; #38 sees our heroes tussling with the Frightful Four, losing their powers in the process; and in #39, with an iconic cover, powerless, they face up to Dr Doom with the aid of Daredevil. All three issues have the ‘MMMS Wants You’ box, an ad for the Merry Marvel Marching Society. And, on a personal note, #38 was the first regular Marvel comic I read which spurred me on to investigate the Marvel Age of Comics, despite being a dyed-in-the-wool DC fan.
PICTURED: FANTASTIC FOUR
#37 FN/VF £95 Nice clean copy with residual gloss, a couple of tiny cover creases that don’t break colour, minor wear along top edge, tight, firm staples and supple white to off-white pages.

#39 VG- £37 Nice copy with residual gloss, strong colour, blighted only by ragged top edge with some small chips out. Tight, firm staples and supple white to off-white pages. SOLD

*EC: Additions to our Pre-Code Horror inventory have been somewhat lacking for these past few months, but we have an issue of probably the most famous horror title of them all this week: Tales From The Crypt from EC. Issue #39 from 1953/54, with our hosts the Crypt-Keeper, the Old Witch and the Vault-Keeper, features a cover by Jack Davis and stories with art by Davis, Joe Orlando, Jack Kamen and Graham Ingels – a classic EC Line-up. This is a reasonable copy with some flaws: tiny chip off top right corner, clean 3 cm lower spine split, wear to spine and right edge with some spidery colour-breaking creases along the right edge and a wax crayon small arrival date over the ‘R’ in ‘Crypt’ on the logo. But the staples are firm and tight, and the pages a nice quality white to off-white.  
PICTURED: TALES FROM THE CRYPT #39 GD/VG £225 SOLD

*Romance: For our final update from the Midas Collection this week, we feature three early issues of Girls’ Love Stories, one of DC’s longest running romance titles, which started in 1949 and finished in 1973. Our update features #4, #12 and #16.  Although mostly drawn by unknown artists, DC’s romance comics from this period featured a good standard of appealing art, and often very well composed and executed covers. Here, #4 is a photo cover, as was common with romance back then, but by #12 had changed to line-drawn art. All worn but in solid, decent condition without significant defects. Seldom seen, particularly over here in the UK, the Midas Collection is quite rich in this genre, with many more to follow.

*Humour Comics: The Christmas Beano is an institution of British comics. For many children (and adults) over the decades a real highlight of this special time of year, where many of their favourite characters engage in festive frolics, and the Beano logo is decked with snow. And whilst collecting 4000 plus issues of the Beano wouldn’t suit all Beano fans’ circumstances, a collection of Christmas issues is much more manageable, if you can find them. Let us help you with that.  This week, we have a copy of the Christmas Beano from 1946, #300 dated 29th December. Big Eggo, Lord Snooty and the gang, Polly Wolly Doodle and her Great Big Poodle and very many more are all here in celebratory mood, also featuring the first strip of Sticky Willie. This is a nice copy with bright colours, a totally intact spine and good definition; pages are near-white. One or two small foxing spots on the cover, and a slightly crumpled bottom right edge, with small creases only in the margin areas.
PICTURED: BEANO #300 29/12/46 GD/VG £70 Christmas issue.
