A lovely scan of a rare treasure. 10 of 10! |
|
Agreed-a really lovely scan of this early beauty. |

Amazing! I had just looked at this a week ago, and was lamenting the bare-bones black-&-white scan of #9. Now a week later comes a nice crisp, legible scan! Thanks for posting, Gwandanaland! It's just a pity something couldn't be done to straighten the pages, but that's just the kind of sloppy printing that was considered acceptable for comic book publishing back then, I guess. Personally I don't mind when people crop the margins of the pages, as long as they leave a eighth-inch or so gutter around the outside borders of the artwork, but I guess some people really want to see it exactly how it looked to the readers with the actual comic in front of them. |
