Vulpes Vulpes: Apr 28, 2013; "...for you, it is all over...!"

My parents are moving, so I went to pack up what of my crap I had left there. My dad told me to take the boxes of comics he had collected in his youth as he had to clear the space, and my brother and I had grown up reading them anyways so they were pretty beat to poo poo by now. I hadn't looked at those boxes for a good 16 years at least though, so it was pretty fun to dig through one of them this evening and see what was there. It was a combination of Dad's old comics, 80s Gladstone comics from when I was a little fellow and other 90s detritus that had collected from the time I had grown up. I pulled out a few gems to take some snaps of this evening.

First off, some kracking Kirby kovers:

I guess the old man wasn't keen on Don Rickles?

poo poo drat

Wish the cover was still on this one, bummer

And some other oddities and delights:

The Ten-Eyed Man has a place in my heart

hell yeah Prez

70s post-apocalypse was so dope, Killraven as well

Not much to say on this one

yeah Stingray

Boomerang's costume was mad goofy

Kubert cover, Kirby interiors

Not a 70s comic, but drat what an issue

yeahhhh

Those old Spectre comics were so great- people just getting hosed up left and right in horrifying ways. I didn't flip throught it, but if memory serves a criminal hairdresser gets cut in half by giant scissors
