Yes, thank you for the upload Poztron. Always good to see another one of your scans.

Just uploaded In Love #1 (Mainline), which appears to be mostly a Simon-Kirby romance "novel" and a bonus two-pager from Mort Meskin, with a couple of other strips. I don't think that Mainline is a front name for a bigger name publisher, so I am putting this book in the Small Publishers directory. My apologies if this is not the greatest place and feel free to reassign the file elsewhere.

Sorry P,
Sadly this title and many other Mainline Publications (Simon & Kirby's own publishing company) are not in the public domain.

You might want to start using this link to check you titles.  It's not the Final authority on all PD titles but at least you can see if it is there as this one was -

Use the Search button and sort by ascending.

Phooey. I wish someone had mentioned this a couple of weeks ago when I posted here my plans to scan the title.  :(
But ultimately the fault lies with me for not checking more carefully. However, someone might want to add Mainline to the list of no-no's in the "Comics not to be uploaded to the site" topic. I did check there.
Oh well.

Alright, gang. Combing through my collection, I see I have 4 Fox titles that aren't in the archives. They are:

Dagar Desert Hawk #20 (Oct 48)
Zegra Jungle Empress #4 (Feb 49)
Zegra Jungle Empress #5(Apr 49)
Jungle Jo #2 (July 50)

Can anyone confirm that these are indeed PD? I don't see why they shouldn't be since they are Fox titles and mostly fill in holes in title runs that are already archived here. I suppose the other thing I should double-check is whether someone already has dibs on them for scanning from JVJ's treasure trove. (Also, if these already have been scanned as IW reprints, in which case they drop way down in priority.

I'd just as soon not go through the labor of scanning (which half-destroys my comics in the process, since they are in such funky condition to begin with) if these are problematic.

These are fine Poztron, go ahead with scanning on them.

I "feel" your pain in/on this, been there, done that.

Hi P,
I'm very sorry I didn't catch that Mainline book earlier.  My Bad.
But please do check any titles you don't already see on GAC at that Copyright link before scanning.
Fox books are pretty pricey so I don't think anyone will be scanning those soon though Len (Freddyfly) might show up with one from time to time.  But in this case a second set of scans for a book isn't really a problem as we can share both but with non-PD books we really don't have any choice in the matter.

Sorry again about In Love, I'm really looking forward to the Fox books!

OK, I'm about two thirds of the way through Zegra #4, but have to head to bed because tomorrow's a work day. It'll probably get wrapped up Monday night. A lot of that quasi-Baker Iger shop good girl art in this.

Zegra #4 is ready to upload and I tried to do so twice tonight, but Firefox kept folding on me. I'll give it a day's rest and try again.

It may not just be you, I've been trying to upload a file for an hour now with no luck, go figure. I was thinking my service was just slow tonight, maybe not now. I may just do the same with this, wait till tomorrow.

OK, Zegra #4 is up. I uploaded it with Opera, which is acting oddly sluggish with keystrokes but did the job.

Great to finally get this one! Thanks!
But it's another upload that needs re-numbering to fit in with the other issues

Mmm...I'm not quite following you on re-numbering. The printed Fox issue number is #4... am I missing something?

[Later edit]: never mind, I get it. It is now numbered 004 to fit in order with the other Zegra scans...
