Thank you Poz, I really like those Black Cat books.
Would hope everyone else enjoys this book too.

Hell, yes, I do.  Thanks, Poz.  I loved it.  Harvey horror rules.

Next up: Flip #2 (Harvey) June 1954, C2C. Covers are in particularly ragged shape and my copy of the book more or less unraveled as I scanned it, but it has some decent art, fairly slavishly imitating Mad Comics. One of the better Mad knockoffs.

And thank you for sharing it. Yep a "Mad" knock off for sure, but like you stated a pretty good one at that.

It's available now folks for those that want to give it a try.

It's a gray and rainy day and I've got the afternoon free. I've got a copy of Hot Rod Comics #7 (Fawcett) I plan to scan unless someone already has dibs on it. If so, let me know quick.  :P

OK, the issue will be uploaded as soon as I finish this post. It's an experiment for me in trying to streamline scanning. I scanned at 150 dpi direct to jpeg and rotated and trimmed pages right in the scanning software. Page widths might vary somewhat (though not very much), but this way I don't have to run each file through Photoshop. The rest of the experiment is uploading it as a .cbz file instead of a .zip.

This is a rather rough copy that I bought decades ago in a comic con bargain bin. So the covers are not particularly in appealing condition. OTOH, it has a centerspread of a Bugatti. A good one for all you car lovers. Two Powell (or Powell shop) drawn stories and all other filler.

Hot Rod Comics #7 (v.2, n.7) (Fawcett) Feb. 1953 CTC

Y'know I was gonna skip looking at this one and then you said "two Powell drawn stories."

Sold!

Thanks

Jeez, it's merely been a year and a half or so since I last uploaded something.

In any case, I just uploaded the missing IFC, IBC, BC and a better scan of the FC of Doll Man #46.
I did it from my Mac, but used Cleanarchiver to make the zip file, so it should be okay.

Someone better skilled than I will need to integrate the scans into the existing DM #46 file.

Thanks!

Hi Poz,
nice to see you again.  Sorry, but I don't see where you uploaded those pages.

Uh oh. Perhaps I should try again. I thought I had the upload page down, but maybe I muffed it. I did them as a folder of 4 files compressed as a zip file.

I think I forgot to hit the Confirm button the first time...

See if it shows up now.
