Just to show that I'm a nice guy and don't hold a grudge, clue #4 is a twofer (and please notice how generous I am with the pixels, Mark):

More bang for the buck, but then it's all free anyway...

That orange - is it Ben Grimm in some early FF issue?

Image two is an eagle!

And I think this is a farmer

This is a soldier

And this is probably a clue too far ....

Don't you think that you went a bit obscure on your choice?

For those who HAVEN'T solved the mystery, I chose Picture Parade #1, one of the truly bizarre covers in the history of comics! What WERE the artist and the editor thinking of? Let's do a sentimental picture of a boy and his dog and then let's get ready to turn them to bone and ash. Yeah, that'll sell this new comic.

Is it obscure? To some, yeah. Published by Gilberton (Classics Illustrated), so it's not THAT far off the mainstream.

I'm still working on yours, Mark. Haven't much time right now.

It's the inspiration for Johnny Cash!

Good one. Popular title and cover. Lots of variety in the image. Just a little pat on the back for me for recognizing Powell from the first little clip from the cover.

I think you're still up from your previous wins. I've got to work this week, so I'll be monitoring, but probably not as involved.

No clue, Mark,
I see the artist as Pen Shumaker, which implies an Archie connection, but beyond that, I'm stumped. It appears to be either Romance or Crime and circa 1949-1950. My best guess.

Don't recognize the cover.

Ah now this is getting interesting!

To help that wavy line is a crease and also according to GCD the cover was drawn by someone called : "?". They appear  to have been very busy as "?" is credited for everything in this issue. But do not let that fool you this is not an obscure issue from an obscure publisher far from it!

This really IS fun, but I'm still stumped.
Dazed and confused.
Can't find it. Give another clue?

When I don't know, I don't know, Mark.
Not something I seem to be familiar with. Another good one. Sure hope that someone else jumps in and IDs it.
