And somebody left the Fawcett on again!

Fawcett's Funny Animals 77 uploaded to the FTP

I find this one fascinating in its own way.  No Marvel Bunny as such, but Hoppy is still in there, just not super-powered.  An interesting turn of events.

And something that comes at the very late end of what we'll allow on this site, but we have at least one slightly later issue:

Black Cat Mystic 60 uploaded to the FTP.  Lots of S&K goodness in this one.

I have a copy of Black Cat Mystery 39, as well- the only SOTI-mentioned book I own.  But when I posted my original list of what I had way back when, I was told it had already been scanned.  But it's not on the site, and I can rescan it if need be.

Next: something I had already promised; luckily the book was good to scan when I got it.

All Top 17 uploaded to the FTP.  Last Fox Phantom Lady.

And, All Top 15 uploaded to the FTP.  Which gives us the complete run of Phantom Lady in All Top; we're still missing the funny animal issues and the last issue.

I would have felt a lot more like a show-off if Archiver USA hadn't put up the other issues last week; at least I didn't buy the issues and have them posted while I was waiting for them to be delivered.

Glad to see somebody liked it; judging from the prices it commands this seems to be one of the all time least in demand titles from the 40's.  :-\

Which is why I have two different issues. There are many "overlooked" GA comics. SS happens to be a true anthology with no superheroes. No big name artists either that I know of.

Zaro is superhero-ish, I think.  And it's a surprisingly engrossing strip, too, in case Eric thinks nobody reads this stuff.

I figured somebody would enjoy it; even if I find it more _interesting_ than entertaining, as such.  I suspect the book lasted as long as it did thanks in part to people seeing the page count and figuring it was good value rather than a dedicated fan base, though.  It was 64 pages for a dime all the way to the last issue in early 1948 when some books were already down to 32.  A fat, cheap book would appeal to parents buying for their kids, I suspect.

Here's some more early Pogo for everybody:

Animal Comics 11 uploaded to the FTP.

I know Jon has all but issue 1 on his "to do eventually" list, but since Animal is one of the few titles I'm trying to put together for myself even if I have access to scans, I'll keep adding them as I get new issues.  (16 is on the way to me as well).

Eric feel free to scan any issues you think (know) I might have.  It would literally have taken me years to get to them all and now it's only worse (in the nicest of ways) with JVJ's comics.

I figured as much, Jon.  I was just mentioning that Animal Comics was an exception to my current normal policy, which is to focus on buying books that we need to find to scan.

I would _really_ love to find a copy of #1, though.  If anybody spots a copy at any price, let me know- I haven't seen any at all online.  (If it's more than $250 or so I would need to work out a brief payment plan, but it's worth trying to dicker if I can even find one for sale.)

Rest assured, Eric, the remaining Animals, Fairy Tale Parades and Our Gangs are high on my list of to-scan.  As well as looking for Animal #1 I need Our Gang #7 and 8. 

I suspect that the Our Gang Comics (or at least the stories) are in public domain since the recent Fantagraphics books show no copyright other than their own.

I'll keep my eyes open for the Our Gang 7 and 8; the only issues I have are 34-36.  Even if they are PD (and I suspect they are if Fantagraphics didn't have a notice) I don't know if they would be allowed here.  The problem probably wouldn't be the Our Gang stories themselves, but the Tom & Jerry.  (The first 50 or so Our Gang films are PD; I'm not sure exactly how that helps our case but I know it does.  It means the underlying concepts established in those films are PD as well.  Trademark is, of course, a separate issue.)
