Thanks, but I knew that. I've been collecting scans for many years. I have the most complete set of scans online, but some they show aren't posted on my site (yet). They have some in really rough shape that I'm not showing yet. I do some touch-ups to get as good a quality representation as I can find. I'm always looking for better quality images.

The index listing confirmed & unconfirmed:

Just the covers...

Actually, I think I have the most complete listing of foreign reprints and remaindered images online also..

Impressive stuff!
:D

Grant Geissman said some nice things about the Superior/EC page.
He writes all the great books on EC. The page had moved online and he was asking some people on Facebook if they knew where it was.

Collecting the other foreign comic scans involves digging through websites that are written in languages I can't read.
My hobby now is more related to collecting information on comics and less into buying over-priced products.

Yoc:
Hi praise for sure!
Ah, you are on FB.  I was thinking their EC Fanatic group would be a great place to find cover scans.

You must be familiar with the work of Ken Quattro, the Comics Detective.  I love the obscure comics history he's always finding out there.  http://www.comicsdetective.com/

I am not on Facebook. My account was blocked after repeatedly doing captchas to confirm I'm not a bot. I decided I was happier not using Facebook. I did not contest the block. I have limited access to view the group without an account. I've switched over to using decentralized social media like Mastodon & Friendica. Mastodon is a Twitter equivalent that has a fairly large user base. Friendica is struggling to get users, but it is a Facebook equivalent. I like them both better than the corporate owned Twitter & Facebook.

 I have communicated with some people in the Facebook group, including the guy who runs it. It is a source for images occasionally, but the primary collectors who buy these usually post horribly skewed photographs with poor lighting and reflective glare which washes out the colors. In all honesty, I don't believe that the people collecting these want anyone promoting them. It makes them harder to buy and the prices they have to pay are greater. I will admit it is one of the better Facebook groups with an immense amount of knowledge being shared by noteworthy industry people & collectors.
