Wow!
Thanks Very Much Michael for the big haul.
All of them are now up.

BTW, when reposting books you find online could you please be sure to remake the file as a zip from scratch?
These are all fine but the 'Cody of the Pony Express' issue was a rar file renamed to cbz and our DCM Preview feature always chokes on those.
We corrected it and it's working now though.

Thanks again, great job on these!

The Cody CBZ error was my fault on a book I scanned and named. That's what I get for finishing something in December that I began in July on another desktop with different software. It shouldn't happen again.

Ah, no problem Michael.  Once we knew the problem it was just a matter of renaming it to cbr.
CBZ is preferred these days but cbr still works when needed.

Thanks again for the wonderful flood of new scans from you!

Thanks for all the books and especially the Fightin' AF

Hi Michael,
I was just reminded that Gene Autry's Champion 3-5 are Not in the public domain so I've had to remove them.
Narf might want to do the same on CB+.

Over the last few weeks, I assembled and have now uploaded "Firehair Golden Age Archives" in 5 volumes (Original material only; no reprints). The upload includes newly created Archive covers (inspired by Yoc's Fighting Yank archives), table-of-contents pages, and an homage page to the original scanners. For the sake of uniformity, editing of some scans was performed, mostly straightening and border-cropping. Many covers were upgraded. It was fun putting this together, but a lot of work too. It looks pretty good on an iPad.

Note: there was a missing page from the Firehair story in Rangers Comics #44. I rescanned that entire story. If anyone wants to stick the missing page in the Rangers Comics scan, be my guest.

V1: 154 pages, 86.1 MB
V2: 147 pages, 84.8 MB
V3: 141 Pages, 77.9 MB
V4: 141 pages, 71.7 MB
V5: 132 pages, 59.9 MB

Happy new year!

~Michael

P.S.: original scans of at least another 30 books to follow in the coming weeks.

WOW!
Wonderful stuff Michael.  Thanks very much for adding this.

I too will be debuting my own collection in the very near future.  And I think it's the best one I've been part of yet.  Certainly with the most 'extras'.

Looking forward to your next uploads,
