Just another amazing Kubert cover.

 

Very nice copy!

All of those giant size books are just gems... My favorites are #238 and #244, and #245.

Just amazing books!

Here's the copy from the auction...

 

 

I'm guessing maybe VG+, VG/FN in a stretch.

Here's the copy I got off of an online auction site (not ebay... some weird site that came up when I searched the book.) Got this maybe 2 years ago....

Hey guys,

Can anyone answer this question?

Does anyone know how many BA War books were reprinted by Whitman?

I think it might be only Sgt Rock 329

If that's the case, then could the 329 might be the only published BA war book with the Whitman label?

If that's the case, then could the 329 might be the only published BA war book with the Whitman label?

Yes... and no.

While Sgt. Rock #329 is the only 'pure' DC war book that exists as a Whitman variant, there are some crossover issues that are also variants.

Brave and Bold #146 has an Unknown Solider crossover story.

Justice League of America #160 has an Enemy Ace crossover story.

DC Comics Presents #10 has a Sgt. Rock story.

There's a great checklist at this link: http://stlcomics.com/checklists/whitman

Cool tip, thanks

Thx Shep (thumbs u

- So am I correct in saying that Sgt. Rock is the only complete Whitman Bronze Age War Comic?

I would say yes, that's correct.

I was thinking of the guys who fought in the Battle of the Bulge today, so I thought I'd post this pic. The book doesn't relate to that battle, but I knew some of the US Army sergeants and men who served during that time.

Beautiful book OV- Kubert was incredible with his war covers.

The only 9.8 on the census. Hard to find this 1979 digest book in high grade.

Thanks!

How's your Mystery Comics Digest run coming along?

 

Thanks!

Oh, man, I lost focus awhile back and ended up trading them all for some BA DC horror I needed. They were cool little books, I just can't collect everything I'd like to these days.

I'm living vicariously through your incredible digest set!

I love that Sgt. Rock digest!!

I bought it off the rack back in 1979 and it is chock full of silver age classics that I had never even seen before.

One of the things that makes it so tough in grade is that it the cover stock does not have a very glossy finish, so blemishes show up up very clearly. A 9.8 is something of a miracle.

It's notorious for being miscut/mi abound as well.

Here's a bit of Cronze Age war!

Looks like a nice 9.8.
