OtherEric's Uploads

[OtherEric]

So, was looking over Movielover's amazing "books still needed" list while chatting with Yoc last night and I noticed that The Spirit #5 from Fiction House was missing two pages.  I've had a VERY incomplete copy of the book for years, picked up mostly because the cover was amazing even if only two of the four stories inside were complete.  Which explains why it never made it onto my scanning pile.  But at least I can provide the IFC IBC and give us a complete, C2C run of that particular publisher's run on the title.

Scans by King Faraday, original posting by Henry Peters, fills by OtherEric, I love teamwork.

Thanks Eric for the fills.

Trying to get things back together to start scanning what I have, but delays seem to keep turning up.  Have a little fill for tonight.

I recently bought a small batch of random GA tearsheets for $11 with shipping.  One of the two reasons was it had the Pie-Face Prince story from Jingle Jangle 5, our copy was missing the first two pages.  The issue is still incomplete, but now it's only missing 4 pages, not 6, and we have both Carlson stories complete now.

The other story, which I can't share here, was the Scribbly story from Big All-American Comic Book.  I don't ever see myself affording the original of that one, but having the Scribbly story at least in non-reprint form is a nice little addition to my personal collection!

Congrats on the buys and scanning again Eric!

And now that I don't have JVJ's box, I'll try to get a few of my own books that I've gotten scanned.  Starting with one that just came in the mail today, from a title near and dear to my heart:

Adventures of Peter Wheat #18 ready for download.

The remaining issues are showing up even less often on eBay, and the prices are getting crazy when they do.  You don't want to know what I paid for this one.  But I'll keep getting them when I can!

[Yoc]

Wow!  Thanks so much for all you've done to bring Peter to the public Eric!  I'm looking forward to reading it asap! 

[OtherEric]

And here's issue 64 of Adventures of Peter Wheat as well.  I've had this one for a few months, but might as well get them both up.  This one isn't by Kelly, though.

I suspect this may actually be the last issue, despite what most sources say.  I have found exactly zero indication 65 and 66 actually exist, and I've at least seen small images of the covers of most of the rest of the issues.  If so, I suspect it's actually Peter Wheat News that made it to 66.

Thanks Eric!

A minor upgrade:  I finally, after nearly 4 years, sourced a cover for My Love Memoirs 12 from Fox.  And have some other scanning projects in the pipeline, including another Fox book with a Wally Wood story and some 3-D comics.

[Yoc]

Thanks Eric!  I've adjusted the name to show it is an upgrade.

[OtherEric]

And, while I'm starting to work on the 3-D books, also trying to knock out some simpler projects as well.

Coo Coo Comics 47 (c2c) now ready for download.

For those of you who might not otherwise bother with funny animal books:  This issue has 7 pages of Frank Frazetta art; 2 text pages and a 5 page story featuring a rather familiar alligator who looks like he wandered in from somebody else's comic...

[Geo (RIP)]

Thanks Eric. Good to see that your scanning your own books.

Very true and a cool Frazetta book to boot!

[OtherEric]

And how do I follow up when 2 of my last 3 books have featured either Walt Kelly or Frank Frazetta?  With Wally Wood!  March of Crime 2 (Fox, 1950 series) is now ready for download.  The Wood story is described in Overstreet as "exceptional", I believe the only time they felt the need to describe a story as such.  Not sure I would tag it like that, but it's definitely the best work for Fox I've seen from him.

Thanks Eric!
