Just this ONCE, Eric.
See Jim's Law #1.

Thanks, Jim. I didn't know how easy it would be for you to get to just the one comic so didn't want to ask you directly.

It's given me a real "high"* though to know I reconstructed that ifc correctly. I don't think I put the restored version on the site because I wasn't sure, but will do so this weekend

*It was sorely needed -- looks like I'm heading back for more surgery before Xmas, probably the end of next week. A minor procedure as they call it, but I say anytime they put you under it's major to you.

I'll either have more (if I'm moping at home) or less (if I'm real bad -- unlikely) time to scan JVJ's but I will get to them.

Be well, Jon. We'll all keep you in our thoughts.

Hang in there Jon, we're all rooting for you.

Good luck Jon!

JVJ · « **Reply #56 on:** December 05, 2008, 07:19:33 PM »

Best of luck, Jon,
Keep us posted on your progress.

And, for the record, I can get to ANY of my comics by moving at the maximum ONE box. Here's some shots I took awhile ago of just part of my comic book collection.

So it's never a hassle to get at a specific book. The comics are flat in the boxes and they are not in plastic bags, so I just stand the boxes up and thumb through to the book I want.

As I've said many times here, I'm a bit crazy.

Peace, Jim (|:{>

JVJ · « **Reply #58 on:** December 05, 2008, 10:36:30 PM »

People have, narf, people have!

If you're ever in the area, don't hesitate to call.

What a lovely picture Jim.
I can just SMELL all those comics..... *drool*

darkmark · « **Reply #60 on:** December 06, 2008, 02:42:39 AM »

Best of luck and prayers for Jon the Scanner.

And I can imagine Jim burrowing thru his comics like a gopher, and throwing them up, and letting them hit him on the head...

I "feel" your pain Jon, I too have been having some problems with my health, I just found out I have arthritis (don't know which kind yet, just hope it's not the bad one, but having either one is bad enough). Nice way to go into the "golden years" huh, and then I just past a kidney stone this past week (can it get any worse?) so I've been off work most of the week, just laying around.
Anyway Jon may God be looking out for you and Bless you that you come out fine on the surgery. You'll be in my and the wife's prayers.

Geo

JVJ · « **Reply #62 on:** December 06, 2008, 07:14:20 AM »

Are my comics destroying the scanners? Geez, guys,
please get well ASAP. Okay?

I hate to be the one to break the bad news, but the reason that time seems to go by so fast after you hit 50 is... wait for it... it's ALL downhill! Just kidding, but you really better get used to some additional aches and pains.

As someone famous (or at least very smart) once said, "If I knew I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself when I was young."

On the other hand, I have to chuckle when I read a novel that contains a line like "The elderly gentleman must have been in his early sixties, at least." I may have more aches to deal with, but "elderly" is NOT how I think of myself. And I hope Jon and Geo never think that either. Take care, guys, and think positive thoughts -- like how many more comics you will get to see when you come back to full speed.

Best.

Certainly not your comics, JVJ. For those of you who don't know, I was diagnosed with prostate cancer a year ago May. (And all of you males over 40 should have PSA tests.) My prostate was removed last July (i.e. 2007). The cancer is completely gone, but I've had healign problems (Scarring) from the surgery. It happens in about 5% of the cases I'm told. The corrective surgeries aren't too bad, but they're just annoying as is the problem if they arent' done.

narfstar · « **Reply #64 on:** December 07, 2008, 12:45:03 AM »

A few extra prayers can't hurt. I may get a cancer but probably not prostate as my psa was below the chart.

Yoc · « **Reply #65 on:** December 07, 2008, 09:28:34 AM »

Wow, sorry to hear about your problems Jon, but it's good of you to share them with us. Someone might get the message and look into these things.

GL with the recovery!

Just as a heads up, while I've gotten several books scanned this week I was running behind and am late handing them off to editors or doing them myself. But in addition to two issues of Phantom Lady I've done several of JVJ's Authentic Police Cases issues You'll see some of that soon; I just didn't want people to think I was slacking off.

rez · « **Reply #67 on:** December 15, 2008, 05:31:47 AM »

Authentic Police Cases No.3 is now in the FTP.

Yoc · « **Reply #68 on:** December 15, 2008, 03:45:59 PM »

Authentic Police Cases No.3 is now up.
Thanks guys!

OtherEric · « **Reply #69 on:** December 18, 2008, 03:05:33 PM »

And, as the holidays approach I seem to have less and less time to scan, or do anything for that matter. But I was able to get at least a couple books scanned and edited for your enjoyment, thanks to JVJ's generosity:

Authentic Police Cases 13, with a Baker cover and 8 page story.

Target Comics v3 n8, highlights here are Wolverton Spacehawk and a Spillane text story.

Enjoy; sorry I wasn't able to do more this week.

Yoc · « **Reply #70 on:** December 18, 2008, 07:37:28 PM »

Thanks Jim and Eric! Lovely to see new Target material!

Thanks for adding this Target Comics issue, Eric (and to JVJ, of course). Fun to read the stories about Niles and the other Targeteers in WWII.

And snow has defeated my efforts to get to work tonight, which is bad for me but means another scan for you:

Authentic Police Cases 14; featuring a Baker cover and 8 page story now available for your enjoyment.

I was being good, I walked out for my bus nearly an hour early. Only to find that the bus was not running up the hill. So I called for a taxi. 5 hours later, still no taxi. Although, to their credit, they called me back every couple of hours to make sure I still wanted it. At this point, 3 hours late for work, I figured I had done everything within my ability to get to work- I don't own a car and my roommates quite understandably were not going out either. I just don't want to use the time off. Anyway, enough rant. I just needed to vent a bit.
