Historic treasure. So cool this survived!
A great history lesson about this short-lived title. Thanks for sharing this great piece!!
The distinctive style of Simon and Kirby was awesome. This is a very clean splash page. Classic.
SIMON AND KIRBY...CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
This was a superior effort by Simon and Kirby to try to get this off the ground! Surprising that art survived, even though it didn't capture an audience. Perhaps they had confidence that it could be launched again someday.
Blown away by the condition of this 1946 museum quality gem. It's already staggering enough to think of Kirby's body of work from the 60's on up. But it's great to have this historical reminder that you can even go 20 years further back (actually, 30 years, since he started his work on strips in the mid 1930's). Such a wonderful piece of Kirby (and comics) history. Congratulations!
Beautiful, (almost) singular, historical example!
Cool splash page!
Great page, love the boxer's/goon's faces.
So cool, man! Classic stuff, and appreciate the background in your description. Great composition. Congrats!
Bravo! Beautiful and historic splash. I've always loved this comic. About thirty plus years ago, I bid on a high grade copy of this comic in a small town in Western Pennsylvania, with the owners name "A. Wallace" penciled in at the top. I later found out that the book was a part of the Windy City Collection, but apparently the remnants that were not sold to Moondogs back in the day when the original deal went down.
Incredible to see this and for it to be in such incredible condition! Congrats!
Super vintagey and cool, Harry!
