Comic Book Covers We Forgot

CLASSIC COVERS

They need love. Look 'em up won't you.

The Mighty Thor

Marvel: Vol. 1, No. 455, early Dec, 1992

FRENZ-OLLIFFE-MILGROM

A very nice cover. ODIN AMOK! I'll say. Odin looks nuts but he

has the hammer. Don't you love Thor's helmet/mask.

I wonder how long that lasted. It's really a dude named Eric.

Editors note to see THOR #441. I'll have to look that one up.

Interior art by Wyman/Milgrom is just as good.

Green Lantern

DC: Vol. 16, No. 104, May, 1978

Mike Grell

Another good one. It looks like a Marvel cover to me. 

I like the color in the word balloons. Who died?

"ITTY" GL's little alien pal. Itty doesn't bother to

come out of the grave until the very last panel in the book.

This comic has a silly story that brings forth Airwave 2

a 16 year old hero wannabe with a silly costume.

Airwave 2 does see action but he doesn't really help

 in this issue anyway. It's a set up for us to buy the next issue.

An effective cover did work. I picked up the issue. 

 What if?

Marvel: Vol. 1, No. 11, Oct., 1978

Kirby/Sinnoit

C'mon it's Kirby (writer/artist/editor) "nuff said".

Stan Lee as Mr. Fantastic

Sol Brodsky asThe Human Torch

Jack Kirby as The Thing

Flo Steinberg as The Invissble Girl

A Kirby cover followed by 46 pages of Kirby art.

What more can I say? It's a Kirby-a-rama.

Much fun was had in this "What If" a title that usually delivered.

We'll go now and bring back a normal comic review next Sunday.

Please don't leave in a snit.

The Twisted Tantrums of

The Purple Snit

Blackthorne Publishing Inc: No. 1, Oct, 1986

Kelley/Dennis

A fun well done cover. This Indy was well printed inside and out.

B &W book featuring this guy in an OK story.

I found the BPI's forthcoming comic book ads interesting:

LAFFIN' GAS

ALIEN DUCKLINGS

REVOLVING DOORS

COLD BLOODED CHAMELEON COMMANDOS

I'll have to find those.

I must say when I pulled this mag out I was surprised to find

a little dude named "WIT".

Small world. Big teeth.
