OK, even by my low standards some of those are clearly placeholder copies. But it's still one of my favorite runs of covers. My favorite is the 9/8, which rarely if ever is mentioned as a high point. But to my mind it's one of the most impressive bits of composition in a cover I've ever seen. Just beautiful; no one thing you can point to as what makes it work but as a whole it just amazes me every time I see it.

Love those TARGETS! I have 2 of those, the V. 9 #12 and the V. 10 #9 (the last one).

 

That MASK #1 is in pretty good shape, especially considering the paper that cover is made out of. Nice pickup! Welcome to the club!

 

And what can you say about the CATMAN #31?!?!? Just awesome...

 

Oh - UPDATE: The seller refunded the $$ $ on the School Day Romances book, so no harm done.

I've had this for years but only got it slabbed last year.

It's my favorite Catman and one of my favorite Cole covers, but in this dark scan it looks even more than usual that Catman or Kitten is -- uh, incontinent.

This is an L.B. Cole preliminary cover re-creation sketch (Terrifying Tales 13) that I acquired from his estate. He was the man!
