Latest uploads, courtesy of bhcomics' scanner: Blu Beetle 20; Frank N. Stein 24-5, 30-1
and from my scanner: Harvey's Western Tales 31 (1st issue) starring Davy Crockett (Jack Kirby)
-
Bravo, Freddy!
ETA: That "Tim Holt #17" is actually #34, except for the cover. I know, because it's scanned from a coverless copy I once had, and I made a mistake in the numbering. Sorry.
-
It's actually TH #45 DM.
I've renamed the listing.
Thanks for the uploads Freddy.
:)
-
I've updated the Jesse James 5; restoring your original description and showing you as author. I did add a comment about moondood uploading it to DCM as well.
I hope that satisfies everybody!
-
A triple-prize night:
Frankie 20 & 26 (no text/ads) and Prize Comics 68 (last pre-Western issue)
Thanks Freddy!
I am especially grateful for your scanning Prize Comics #68, which I've only seen in incomplete form. It's great to finally be able to read the whole thing! :D
-
Thanks a bunch, freddy!
-
And I forgot to mention Jungle 111
-
Thanks for the Jungle 111 Freddy. :)
-
Thanks for all your uploads freddy!
-
I replaced my Frank N. Stein 20 (26 pages) upload with a c2c version
-
Last one for today: Wings 98 (c2c)
-
Nicely done freddy!
-
A batch of 6 pre-war Operation: Perils tonight; all text- & ad-free!
And before this night/morning is over, Jungle Comics #9, with full cover but missing the outer wrap!
-
Glad to see the new Jungle. Do you have issue #27, in which Camilla makes her changeover from She-clone to jungle queen?
-
Thanks Freddy!
:D
-
I c2c-ized the Operation Perils that Freddy uploaded except for #6 which I do not own. They're all on the FTP. Going to GAC next.
Jon
-
Thanks very much Jon, going up now.
I'm keeping freddyfly as the author though you will get credit for the fills.
:)
-
added 2 more Ghost Rider stories: Tim Holt 18 & Red Mask 45; I'll get them all before I'm through! (if I can find cheap copies of the issues with Frazetta [ha!])
-
Two 1954 Fic Houses this morning: the 2nd-last Kaanga: #19, and the last Wings: #124
-
Thanks freddy!
:D
-
New this evening: Thrilling 70! More Frazetta! More Princess Pantha!
BUT :'( , it's been chewed (see details on download page)
-
Thanks. Princess Pantha is great!
-
Last one for this a.m.: Rangers 47! (c2c)
-
Thanks freddy, better job than the Habs did tonight.
;)
-
Thanks for all the great scans, Freddy!
-
Thanks for Prize Comics #45, Freddy! :D
-
Last night's uploads (sorry): Prize 45, LoneRider 10(from DC++), and the missing page 1(original ifc; no, I don't have the rest) from the PhLady reprint of #15.
Coming soon: more Prize! more Rangers! more Wings! more Kaaaanga! more GhostRider stories!
-
Thanks for EVERYTHING, Freddy.
-
Tonight: it's Doll Guy #35! Only one more to go (26), altho there's one reprint and several fiches to replace.
Also, a sad story :'( : I'm uploading a partial Redmask 49 - the Ghost Rider story and the junk pages. The copy I bought was messed up with black grease-pencil on almost every page with Black Phantom (eg, added pony-tails), and also some blacked-out figures on several pages. The GhR story is almost clean, so I'm providing it, along with the ads & letters.
-
We're also missing Doll Man 41, I think.
-
Slight correction: I'm not missing #41, but dcm is, but not for long.
Tonight, tonight... it's Better-Standard-Nedor's Wonder #14; no ifc/ibc; fc+bc from HAG.
And, from snard via dc++: Jumbo 123, but low compression means grossly humongous file sizes; not for those with limited bandwidth and/or slow connection speed.
-
Thanks for the Wonder Comics issue, FF!
Looking forward to more Prize ... :D
-
Scan-of-the-day for today: Best of the West #2: more of Dick Ayers' Ghost Rider!
-
as promised, tonight: Doll Girl 41! (and her partner Doll Boy) (whatever happened to Elmo?)
-
And finally for tonight, an improved Best ofthe West #1 (now 2 stories instead of 1), and c2c Kaänga 12!
-
Love the lastest stuff FF! GR and Dollman, nice!
-
It's a holiday weekend (let's hear it for Queen Victoria!) up here in the 'frozen north' (80º yesterday in T.O.), so here's a nice early Fight Comics: #16 (pre-war; pre- Señorita Rio); with 2 costumed heroes: Super-American & Captain Fight. Scanned from a coverless, and none at HAG, so I added the best fc I could find (2 versions).
-
Tonight's contribution: Wings 74; Madame Hell Hawk!
-
Keep on the job, Freddy. We need every Fiction House we can get!
-
For Prize fans, tonight / this morning it's a c2c Prize #56: Frankenstein, Yankendoodle, the Black Owl, Boom Boom, and other stuff
-
Yay! Thanks FF! :)
-
Tonight/thisMorning it's something for Ghost Rider fans: Tim Holt 32, but half-a-panel is cut out (see download page)
-
and one more: Police #2, thanks to flatterman; it's been at dc++ for a month, so here it is for the DCM
-
Back to FictionHouse today: c2c Rangers 56;
and thx to bhcomics, a complete ad-free Best o' the West #1 (just copy some ads from another ME comic of the same period; they're all the same... except for the ifc indicia)
-
I'm quite glad to let you pass me in total scans, Freddy. You're doing a great job.
-
This a.m., back to FHouse with Kaanga #10;
and from dc++ another nice paper Police to replace old fiches: #34 (unknown scanner)
-
Great find there freddy and thanks for another Kaanga original.
:)
-
my daily Fiction House contribution: Rangers 58!
-
Very cool, thanks as always freddy!
:D
-
From dc++ today: paper c2c Police Comics #3!
-
:o Hot off my scanner this morning: Blue Bolt v4n9 (the first of several)
-
Many thanks for all freddy!
:)
-
:P 2 new FH's tonight: Jungle 45 & Kaanga 2
Plus, from dc++: Police 8 paper c2c!
-
The Jungle #45 apparently hasn't uploaded properly. Any chance of a reload?
-
Jungle45 is now working.
Thanks again freddy!
:)
-
Thx to Yoc for the repair!
Tonight: :o at last, it's the last Ghost Rider: #14! c2c (for all you ad lovers)!
-
Oh Very Cool!!
:D :) :D
-
???
This a.m., it's Blue Bolt (replaced by his girlfriend, Marg Hesslin) v6 #8
-
Thanks ff!
-
And, this a.m. it's the original Kaänga #18.
-
We're five issues away from the whole Ka'a'nga line! (Sorry, couldn't resist!)
-
::) groan...
:)
-
Make that FOUR! Tonight it's 'K'ä'ä'n'g'ä' #15!
-
freddy, you are an absolute MACHINE! Love it!
-
Bonga, bonga, bonga, he don't want to leave the Ka'a'nga...thanks, Freddy!
-
Thanks ff!
:D
-
Ok, that's it! No more quotes in Kaanga, please, even in fun! If you want to be a perfectionist, use the dieresis to indicate adjacent vowels pronounced separately: Kaänga! (alt-132, or use charmap; you can even capitalize it: Ä, alt-142). End of grammar lesson.
Where was I..... oh, yeah... 2 new Fawcett scans today (from bhcomics): Whiz 5 and Wow 6, both with some fiche fills to make 'em c2c, thx to darkmark
-
What a great surprise! Finally Wow #6 is complete! ;D
Thanks FF!
-
thanks, ff...I was going to ask some techno-savvy to school me in how to coax the proper punctuation out of a PC keyboard, and you beat me to it!
-
Hi BB,
True he can but then his books don't sort in the proper order with the others so I've had to make them plain 'Kaanga' again.
-Yoc
-
Should we call Freddyfly King Kaanga now? ;-)
-
Should we call Freddyfly King Kaanga now? ;-)
No King Ka'a'nga I think
-
äääääääääääääääääääääääääärrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!
-
This evening, it's Blüë Bölt vol 7 #3! For all those who grabbed the previous v7n3, that was actually vol*9* #3 (which is now listed under its correct name).
More Blüë Bölts on the way!
-
Finally, the real deal!
Thanks very much freddy!
:)
-
Tonight, from the deck of bhcomics' scanner, it's the final pre-war Operation Peril scan: #5 (no text story or ads)!
-
Tonight, from the deck of bhcomics' scanner, it's the final pre-war Operation Peril scan: #5 (no text story or ads)!
As I said over on GAC, I just scanned this as well so can insert the ads, text. I also scanned #13 14. They need editing. So the series will be complete except for the text pages of #6
a c2c version of Ooperation Peril #5 is now on FTP. I guess BH scan, freddyfly upload with ad & text page fills by me.
-
I too uploaded the c2c version of Operation Peril 05 to the ftp from GAC's site to my folder. If you do use the one in my folder give the credit to freddyfly, not me by the way.
Geo
-
Thanks guys.
I couldn't see anything in Jon's folder but Geo's was fine so I used his. Credits added as requested.
Nice team work guys.
:)
-
Back to Operation Blue Bolt: vol 5 #8 tonight!
-
Make that tue Blue Bolts tonight: Vol 8 # 8 tue!
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
Some paper wings tonight...
Make that Wings Comics #15! My copy is coverless, so I added rolster's old fiches of the ifc/ibc, and found a nice fc+bc at HAG
-
It's earliest-sunrise day!
So, from my scanner: Tim Holt 16 (Ghost Rider!) (8 damaged pages/sides, but not GhRider).
And, from bhcomics' scanner: Captain Science 2 & 4, and Boys' Ranch #1! (all no ads/text).
-
Wow, thanks for the scans freddy!
:)
-
This a.m. it's Tim Holt 21 - the 2nd Redmask, and, of course, more Ghost Rider!
But... something went funny with my upload, and 2 copies appeared, one with and one without the cover scan. I tried to delete the latter thru my CP, but they don't show up on my list.
-
On this last day of spring (of autumn in World Cup land and the rest of the southern hemisphere), it's my last Blue Bolt contribution for now: vol 8 #9
-
Thanks Len!
-
Now added; Wings 73, thanks to Jon I. (no ifc/ibc)
-
I've added new scans of Wings 73's ifc & ibc to make it c2c.
And, back to ME: Tim Holt #12: the 2nd Ghost Rider story!
-
Thanks Len!
And Jon has just uploaded a whole wack of Wings to be added as well.
Mostly finishing off your own scans which I will make sure you retain credit for while adding a note about JVJ and Jon's fills.
Nice team work guys!
-
I've uploaded a more-complete Fighting Yank 14 (now with all 32 pages), but no ifc/ibc/bc.
And, sticking with Nedor, an all-paper America's Best 16, except no ifc/ibc (fc/bc from HAG); you can add the ugly ficehscans from Darkmark's scan if you have to.
-
Thanks for the Fighting Yank and America's Best paper issues, FF!
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
Something really different tonight (especially for all cowgirl fans) (and Wally Wood fans), the first uploaded issue of Trojan's Western Crime Busters!
It's the last of a 10-issue run; featuring Wilma West (who was in all 10 issues) and Lariat Lucy (who replaced K-Bar Kate in issue 9)
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
Tonight, a Novelty: 4-Most vol 7 #1
-
Keep 'em coming, mon frere.
-
That earthquake was the start of the rift that'll separate Québec from Ontario;
allons enfants!
-
It's Canada Day! (except in Québec, where it's moving day!!. Imagine if a State or two didn't celebrate July 4!!!)
So, I have a Prize for the DCM: issue #50! Enjoy it with a real (Canadian) beer, not that Budwater stuff.
-
Thanks for the newest issue of Prize, Len! ;D
Any other comics with patriotic superheroes (Prize included, of course) to help celebrate the 4th for us Yanks?
-
Thanks again Len!
:)
-
A Target tonight: vol 5 #2 (aka #50)
-
An old Whizzzzzzzz tonight: #33 - fc & bc from HAG; ifc & ibc from darkmark's fiche; all 64 pages from my old scanner.
-
Nicely done Len, thanks!
:)
-
OK.... for July 4, how about Blue Bolt vol3 #1 featuring Blue Bolt The American (his 2nd-last superhero story), and Cap Hawkins' Tales (with a War Heroes cover): a story going back to G. Washington's days about how the 115th infantry got their motto 'Liberty or Death'
-
Very cool! Thanks Len! :)
-
Amen to that.
-
Tonight, Wings to keep you cool: #38; scanned from a coverless, with fc & bc from HAG
-
Thanks Len,
It's a real Wings day all around.
:)
-
I've got a fix (ifc ibc) for Wings #38 as well over on GAC using Jim's comic. I'll try to get it up here as well. If I try a direct upload will it be a problem if I name it just like the file in place? Will it overwrite and mess things up terribly?
Actually let's make that a theoretical question. I'll FTP it and you should continue to give credit to freddyfly when you transfer it.
-
Hi Jon,
No worries on the actual file name as it appears on the hard drive. The software renames everything to a random name for storage so no you couldn't overwrite something by using the same file name for uploading.
In this case I would have suggested you upload it with the same name as it appears on the site - Wings Comics 038 -
but add (now c2c) after it. ie Wings Comics 038 (now c2c).
I'll take care of it though once I know it's on the FTP. I don't see it there so far.
Thanks again! :)
-
Yesterday's contribution that you've probably already noticed: Trojan's Western Crime Busters #1! (but no Wally Wood art).
4 today from House of Novelty it's 4 Most vol 4 #1
-
The 4Most seems not to have been uploaded. Want to give it another try?
-
Sorry, Yoc, I forgot. Freddyfly's Wings 38 c2cized now on FTP.
Jon
-
Thanks Jon.
We'll use it as a test book for training our latest Global Moderator..
GEO! :D
Stay tuned, it might be a bit for it to show.
I've also emailed Len and asked him to reupload his broken 4Most which I removed from the site.
-Yoc
-
4 Most 4-1 redone!
The Ghost Rider rides tonight (this a.m.): Tim Holt 41 & Red Mask 49 (I removed my old partial issue)
-
The Tim Holt sources out two reprints I had. Thanks, Freddy.
-
Thanks Len, nicely done!
-
Today, a pair of Aces: Super Mystery v3#5 (no ifc/ibc/bc) & v7n2(no ibc/bc), from bhc's busy scanner.
And, from my old machine: Wings 21: scanned from a coverless missing the centerfold; fc+bc from HAG (bless 'em)!
-
Thanks so much for adding the Super-Mystery Comics issues, Len.
It was interesting reading the Magno and Davey story in Super Mystery v3 #5. Some of these stories were pretty violent -- my jaw admittedly dropped when I saw the panels of horrified, screaming people being burned alive and having limbs reduced to charred cinders. Kind of reminded me of the later story where Davey investigates a crazed psychotic who is strangling kids to death that ride bicycles. Maybe this would all be considered "tame" to modern day young readers who are literally saturated with extreme violence and gore at a young age, but Golden Age books were anything but an innocent and G-rated form of entertainment (by contrast, this stuff would have never passed the 1930 Production/Hays Code in films). At least, we can admit that things didn't start rolling in terms of violent images or content with William Gaines, the freakout about his comic titles somehow being damaging to kids, and the creation of the Comics Code Authority.
Heck, in a story of the Hangman in Pep Comics, a guy gets his head chopped off with an axe. :o
Naturally, of course... I love these stories. :D
-
Fox and Superior crime books could be pretty gore filled as well.
Now I recall getting in trouble for having an issue of 1970 gore filled 'Tales of Voodoo' or something like that. The violence was so over the top I found it funny but looking back I think the grade 3 teacher I had did the correct thing.
-Yoc
-
As a mean teen I read and loved those old black and white horror books. They were so much more extreme than the color comics. I had no idea at the time they were GA reprints.
-
I have to admit I wouldn't touch those things with a pair of ice tongs...they were terrible. Still are.
But if you want gore in your soup, you might try some of Charlie Biro's stuff, particularly CRIME DOES NOT PAY. Not all of them are grotesque, but some are.
-
freddy's Wings #21 ctc-ized with JVJ's comic. Now on FTP for you.
-
Not quite... ibc is missing.
I've replaced my original with this almost-c2c one (with the page numbering of the cf corrected).
-
Thanks guys, you can't get much closer than that to c2c!
:)
-
Dang -- that'll teach me to try to update late at night. I have the ibc. I know because it was missing a cut coupon from the back cover and I was searching other Fiction Houses of that era to find the right one. It was in a month's early Jungle or Jumbo and was ratty so I edited together two of them. Guess I forgot to insert it into the right folder. I will check it all tonight and either leave things alone or make the definitive c2c version.
BTW the centerfold page numbering was right originally and wrong now (or maybe wrong differently now). The pages are actually numbered in the comic and you can see that the text story page should come before the mail page. I'll fix that when I add the ibc tonight. No sense getting two more uploads.
-
Thanks for all the attention this Wings has gotten guys.
Jon, feel free to upload an Ultimate c2c version anytime.
:)
-
It's there now Yoc -- I sure hope it's right finally.
-
Thanks Jon.
I see Geo is here. I'll let him add this one.
If it's not up tomorrow I'll take care of it.
-Yoc
-
oops. The fouled-up letters pages was my fault. When I grabbed the no-ibc version there were two page 31s and no 32, so I re-numbered the 2nd one '32' without looking at the actual page #s.
Great to see an admission that ad pages are interchangeable, and that scanners use scans from other issues.
House ads are nice, but nobody should be doing regular ads, but I'm a lone voice in my ad-free wilderness.

House ads are nice, but nobody should be doing regular ads, but I'm a lone voice in my ad-free wilderness.
I scan ads in older comics because I think they're interesting and because you can never be quite sure you've got an entire comic if you're missing some pages. (Other scanners have been known to skip filler items as well.) I do use ads from contemporary issues if they are identical. (Believe it or not I even check on those Dept numbers that are often hand-written and can change). I have a spread sheet that tells me which comics were published which months so I can quickly find contemporary issues. With older issues it often doesn't pay to go searching as it takes longer to find the other scan than to scan the four ad pages. If the number of ads gets up to 10 or so, though it's worthwhile. Also some ads may be on damaged pages -- as in this case -- so then looking for a replacement is a must.
I figure anyone who doesn't want to save ads can easily remove them. Some scanners scan the ads, but leave them in raw form with no editing. That is little work and those who want the ads can get them that way.
In any case, Len, thanks for scanning the ads for those of us who do like them.
And glad we got Wings #21 finally straightened out. :-)
-
Thanks Jon.
I see Geo is here. I'll let him add this one.
If it's not up tomorrow I'll take care of it.
-Yoc
Yep, it's up on download site in all it's "c2c" glory. Thanks to freddyfly and JonTheScanner for working so hard on this one to get it "just right", thanks again guys.
Geo
-
Nicely done boys and thanks for sharing your thoughts and methods on ad pages Jon.
Very interesting!
:)
-
:P Tonight / this a.m. a new sea-to-sea Novelty: Target v6 #6!
-
And, for July 17, it's Kaänga 16 (I know... it should be plain Kaanga 16 to keep them in order); 3 issues to go!
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
Something different from my scanner: Military #30. From a coverless copy, so you get all 56 pages, with fc+bc added from the old HAG
-
Thanks Len, nice to see a new Quality book on the site.
:)
-
Freddyfly your upload of Red Mask 053 (c2c) is now ready for downloading on the DCM download site pages. Thanks Freddyfly.
Geo
-
Hey Geo, freddy actually likes to go by Len here on the forums.
Thanks again Len! :D
-
Tonight, tonight... it's 2 almost-complete versions of old partial issues: Weird 17 and Champ 13 (Neptina!). The Weird is all-new (from bhcomics); and since I'm basically lazy, the Champ includes 3 stories (& ifc) from yoc's current upload (his 4th was smallish, so I re-did it) along with my scans of the rest (and fc/bc from HAG).
-
Weird Comics is one of my favorite titles! And I'm happy to see that Champ #13 is now pretty much complete!
Thanks Len! :D
-
I figure anyone who doesn't want to save ads can easily remove them.
Exactly. It is far easier to remove an ad than to add an ad. In many cases the person doing the scanning might be the only person able to provide the complete contents of an issue for a very long time. If people want to remove things later for their personal archives they can, but I think it is important to get as complete an issue as possible stored here for long term archival purposes.
Ads can be an important clue in figuring out when a book was published by comparing the advertisement "fingerprint" of a comic with other comics to find which issues were published during the same advertising campaign. I've been (slowly) building a time line for the Avon one-shots, however too many of the Avon issues here have had their advertisements removed making it impossible for those issues to be useful for this endeavor. :'(
-
Thanks Lens!
Nice to see you again A_U!
:)
-
As July 2010 passes into eternity, here's a paper early Feature - #41 - to replace an old fiche. Scanned from a coverless, with outside covers from HAG and inside covers stolen from that old fiche (and compressed)
-
As August 2010 descends upon us, here's a nice almost-complete (no ifc/ibc) Blue Bolt: the 2nd-last issue with BB in costume: vol 3 #2 (from bhcomics' great scanner)
-
Thanks Len, Feature doesn't get as much attention as it should.
:)
-
This a.m. another Qualiy replacement for an old fiche: Dollman 10; sorry, I didn't add the fiche-fills this time... it's the fc & 46 pages (no text/ad pgs)
-
Well, I added the fiche fills, and now it's c2c. Thanks, Freddy!
-
Thanks Len and DM, the c2c version is now up.
-
Another Hornet-free Green Hornet: #25; otherwise, a c2c from bhcomics' great scanner!
By the way, there's no 'Freddy', and 'freddy' is a figment that I'm stuck with.
-Len W.
-
Thanks Len! Always great to see more Spirit of '76!
I take it there was no Zebra story in this issue of Green Hornet #25.
KB
-
Thanks very much Len!
:)
GCD doesn't list any Zebra story in that issue KB -
http://www.comics.org/issue/4462/
-
Thanks for pointing me in the direction of GCD, Yoc. Looks like some characters would get skipped depending on the issue.
I think I must be one of the few people who actually likes the Zebra. :)
-
The scanner sleeps tonight... but I've uploaded Jungle 150 (c2c)!
-
Thank you Len for your latest upload, keep em' coming please.
Geo
-
Since you insist... :D
A pair of early Better/standard/nedors: Exciting 15 & Thrilling 26!
Both done from a coverless thanx to bhcomics: for the Exc15 I've added HAG's fc+bc; for the Thr26, it's dm's fiche cover plus a sad, small gcdb scan
-
Thanks Len! :D
-
Amen!
-
Beautiful stuff! ;D Big thanks, ff
-
It was nice to have a break ;) ... now it's back to the scanning grind:
Tew new Fiction Houses tonight: Käängä 8 (2 issues to go!) and Jungle 27 - both c2c for all you ad & text fans!
-
Yum, yum!! Looking forward to them Len.
Geo
-
Thank you Len for your upload of Jungle Comics 026. Much appreciated.
Geo
-
Yep, I've been waiting for this...the transitional issue from Camilla-as-Viking-queen to Camilla-as-jungle-queen. Thanks, Len!
-
Thanks for the recent uploads Len!
:)
-
Added tonight: paper Modern 97 (more Blackhawk & Torchy) - scanned from a coverless, so bc & fc added from HAG, and ibc & ifc stolen from Darkmark's fichescan
-
Glad you're still on the job, Freddy!
-
Thank you Len for another fine work.
It's up folks, go get it now!
Geo
-
Let's see... the last Airboy was over 6 months ago, and another 2 months back to the 2nd-last one, and almost another 3 months back to one uploaded by someone else... so it's way past time for another one:
Vol 7 #7 c2c! The Heap! The Flying Norwegian!
-
Attaway, LEN!
-
Nicely done Len!
:)
-
On the Wings of a snow white dove...
It's Wings #13 - all 64 pages freshly scanned; a(n) fc added from HAG, and fiches of the ifc/ibc/bc from the previously-uploaded fichescan
-
Thank you Len, got to love those "Wings" uploads, anyway I do! ;D
Geo
-
Thanks Len.
I've checked the contents and this is actually #12, not 13.
---
I've uploaded a corrected version for Len.
:)
-
Thx for doing the fix!!
I bought it as #13, and I thought I had checked the contents; good thing #12 was needed too.
The ifc however looked familiar, so I checked the current fiche-scans, and it looks like the fiche #13 has #12's ifc
-

The ifc however looked familiar, so I checked the current fiche-scans, and it looks like the fiche #13 has #12's ifc
There are two different ifc's whose indicia say #12 and that the next issue is #13, so I assume the ones we have in the original fiche scans of #12 and #13 are correct with the one in #13 simply a misprint. GCD confirms that the recent paper scan is #12. There is a handwritten notation on the top of the first page reading #12 in black ink that was changed to #13 in a bluer ink (or vv I'm not looking at it right now)
-
This is getting silly. I did check the gcdb, but only after being told my issue is #12.
The fiche-ifc in the corrected paper #12 file is the same as the one in Rolster's old #12 fichescan, so IT IS #12's ifc.
The ifc in the #13 fichescan is different, so that too must be correct even though the indicia & next-issue announcement indicate that it's #12.
-
You might check with builderboy, guys. I just sent him my copy of Wings #12. It MIGHT resolve the confusion?
Like the Car Talk guys say, Kent Hoyt.
Peace, Jim (|:{>
-
Thanks Jim!
:)
-
I'll take a look tonight, fellas, and wade through JVJ's stack
-
BuliderBoy,
Please do check and confirm. It appears we just need a scan of the ifc and ibc to fix it. Actually the ibc is just the same as in the previous month's Jungle (I think or it may have been JUmbo)
-
BTW bb,
I got my Jumbo's and Jungles back from John Fleskes, who had them to get images for an upcoming book he's publishing by Jim Silke on "Jungle Girls". Should be a big hit around here. I had forgotten that I'd lent those to him along with my Jann of the Jungle, White Princess, Lorna the Jungle Girl, Nyoka, and South Seas comics. I have so many comics outstanding in the world at any one time that it is, indeed, frightening. Just thought I'd let you know that the Jumbos and Jungles are back and that I called Gary Groth yesterday and suggested that he'd had the Fight issues entirely just long enough, too. The Fiction House "kids' seem to be coming home...
Peace, Jim (|:{>
-
Any chance we'll get the missing White Princess of the Jungle, and that the Janns could be posted somewhere else?
-
Great news, Jim. Like finding your wallet after a frantic search. Only I would much rather find your stash of Fiction Houses than my wallet! ::)
I will straighten out the Wings tonight.
Darkmark, if nobody steps up before November, I will ask JVJ to do a box swap and GLADLY scan those beauties!
-
There you go, DM,
I was just going to suggest you talk to one of the scanners about the WPotJ. The Janns are Atlas and not available for scanning.
Peace, Jim (|:{>
ps. I just got my copy of John's new book of Al Williamson unpublished sketches. Heaven!
-
Those Jann of the Jungle books had Al Williamson/Ralph Mayo art in them, just beautiful to look at, I'd love to scan those issues Jim, (anything with Al Williamson art in it by the way). But like darkmark stated they couldn't be posted on this site if I did that.
Geo
-
I appreciate the desire, Geo,
but non-PD stuff is not on the table (or the scanner) for sharing from my collection. There's just too much of it and it opens too many questionable doors.
Sorry. I'm sure that Marvel will eventually reprint the stuff in its Masterworks series.
Peace, Jim (|:{>
-
Wings 12....FIXED!!! I scanned fc, ifc, ibc, and bc, which make the book completely authentic. Hope you likey.
-
Jesse James 014 -c2c is now up, another scan and edit from freddyfly.
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Thx to BuilderBoy for the final. complete, definitive Wings 12; now, does anybody have Wings 13 with the wrong indicia?
And thx to geo for transferring my Jesse 14 from 'the other site'
-
Anybody remember The Old Ranger?
Well, tonight it's 2 old Rangers: #s 9 & 16; both scanned from coverless, so no ifc/ibc, but nice fc+bc from HAG. BUT #9 is also missing the outer wrap.
-
Thanks very much Len and BB!
-
Len, Thanx SO MUCH for the early Rangers. I enjoyed them immensely!
-
Jungle Comics 011 (now c2c) now up'd with the help of some friends.
Thanks guys.
Geo
-
Great to get those last Jungle 11 pages.
Now... does anybody have a JUNGLE 8?????
-
Prize Comics 031 (58 of 68 pages) just up'd by freddyfly.
Thanks Len for it.
Geo
-
Wow! Geo seems to be faster than a speeding bullet.
This scan is missing 2 centerfolds: the last Buck Sanders page, and all but the last Frankie pege. Also, it's scanned from a coverless, so no ifc/ibc and the fc+bc are from HAG (I think).
About to be uploaded: Tim Holt 7 - c2c, with Dick Ayers' pre-GhostRider strip, The Calico Kid
-
What do you mean "about to", it's up and ready to go folks...
Thanks my man, (and I'm having trouble keeping up with these uploads from everyone, they're coming fast and heavy. But keep'em coming folks, I love it anyway, I stay out of trouble that way, hee hee).
Geo
-
OK... then how about two more under the T:
Thrilling #46 - no ifc/ibc/bc and missing the cf (pgs 1-3 of Jimmy Cole); with the final Woman in Red (not related to The Lady in Red).
Target vol 5 #3 - no ifc/ibc/bc, and a sad fc from the gcdb; also missing 2 ad pages.
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
Attaway, Len! Be sure to keep the scanner from melting.
-
Thanks very much Len!
:)
-
My scanners have been the only kind of computer-related equipment I've ever had that have Never failed. I had to dump my first one only because it wouldn't work with WinXP. My current one will probably have to go when I get a Win7 system.
Where was I......
Oh, more scans....
Tonight it's back to one of my favo(u)rite series: Jungle 137 (no ifc/ibc). Thanks to those old scans of the early issues, this is a run we can complete! ANYBODY have a #8??
-
Jungle 137 is now up for downloading folks.
Thanks Len, always up for another "Jungle" book.
Geo
-
Well, let's bungle in the Jungles... ;)
-
:(|( To start September, a c2c version of my old upload of Crackajack 32 (which also fulfils a 13-month-old request from Dell4c)
-
Thanks Len.
And your Rangers #2 will be up on DCM shortly as well.
Thank-you for letting me debut it on FHF!
-Yoc
-
And a new Target: v8n6, with new Target scans; includes Krigstein's Bull's-Eye Bill!
-
Much appreciated, Len! (and a belated thanks for that Prize Comics #31 issue) :D
-
Len, keep the hits rolling, buddy! Awesome. I love the Novelty stuff!
-
Thank you Len, keep'em coming.
Geo
-
Back to my favo(u)rite series: Jungle 52; the first 48-pager (Fantomah has been dropped :'( ).
I misnamed the individual files jg58p00.jpg, etc. (I was thinking ahead to my next upload). Feel free to rename them!
-
O-yum, another jungle book from freddyfly. Thanks Len.
Geo
-
And from bhcomics' super scanner, for Prize fans (we try to provide something for everybody), ;D #63: no ifc/ibc, and missing 2 non-house ad pages
-
Thanks to bhc and you Len.
:)
-
Once again, a big round of thanks to Len and bhc. Always happy to see more Prize show up. ;D
-
I'll add my thanks to Len for the Jungle Book and the Prize package.
-
Tonight, back to another of my favo(u)rite strips: M.E.'s Ghost Rider -- this time in Bobby Benson #15 (to replace the last fichescan).
-
I would call Ghost Rider especially by Ayers as the number one western comic hero. Pretty stiff competition but he stands out.
-
Thanks Len!
And I agree with Narf here, GR has long been a favourite of mine as well.
-
:'( So, it's back-to-school time, so how about something historical (more-or-less): from February 1938: Feature Funnies #5, with Eisner's Hawks of the Seas; The Clock Strikes; and a whole bunch of Sunday-comics reprints
-
Thank you for this one Len, most welcome.
Geo
-
Very cool!
Thanks Len!
:)
-
Ahhhh... September in the jungle...
Tonight it's Jungle Comics 58 - c2c - but, like my #52, the comic had been re-bound with ugly tape, extra staples and other stuff. Then, after it was nicely aged, it was taken apart, and the pages had to be trimmed to remove the brittle stuff. You'll see most pages have almost no border space, with tiny nicks along the spine side. The opaque spine tape covers almost an inch of the cover, so I added a HAG fc.
-
I like my "jungle", gently shaken, not stirred. Thanks Len for your latest up.
Geo
-
Tonight, for Catman & Sobin fans: all-new scan of #18 (no reprint pages): all 56 pages! The comic was coverless, so no ifc/ibc, and with fc/bc from somewhere.
-
Thank you Len for your new upload.
Geo
-
Yay, more superhero books! Thanks Len!
-
And superheroines!
One more this a.m.: since nobody else is doing it, here's Flatterman's humongous paper Police 19!
-
Thank you Len for both Cat-Man Comics #18 and Police Comics #19.
Geo
-
Great, Len! Cat-Man's an old fave of mine, so any more you have will be appreciated. Jaune Tom gives his thanks, too.
-
Back to Ayers' Ghost Rider: Best o' the West #4 tonight! (my copy is beat, so you get a HAG fc)
-
Thank you Len. Hope all you western comic folks enjoy this one.
Geo
-
It's always a great day when new GR scans show up!
Thanks as always Len.
:D
-
Tonight's feature scan: Feature Comics #97 to replace darkmark's old fiche. Unfortunately, I had to include his scans of pg# 1&2 because my copy has about 1/3 of the front page torn off :-[
-
Hi Len,
I hope you don't mind but I took a few minutes and merged your ripped paper pgs1&2 with DM's fiche using Photoshop. I then re-uploaded the file and changed the listing name to reflect the additions.
I think I did a not bad job.
-Yoc
-
Thank you Len, your up's are always appreciated.
Geo
-
My notes say JVJ has a copy of Feature #97 so we can complete this from paper at some point.
-
My notes say JVJ has a copy of Feature #97 so we can complete this from paper at some point.
Then thank you Jon for when you get a chance and can do this.
Geo
-
:) Re yoc's editing of my Feature 97 pages: great editing job, as always!
So, let's have a second Feature: another paper replacement for a very old fiche: #43... scanned from a coverless copy, so I've added HAGgish fc+bc, and Tiggerish fiches of the ifc+ibc.
-
Again thank you Len on your latest endeavor.
Geo
-
I'll endeavo(u)r to upload Mor(s)e!
Something different tonight: a Centaur: Keen Detective #19, but it's coverless and missing the outer wrap, and the only fc I could find was a smallish one at gcdb, so no ifc/ibc/bc/pg#1-2/pg#63-4.
The Masked Marvel! The Eye!
-
Thanks Len.
You always seem to come up with something unusual with some of your uploads, I just love
the variety on it, thanks again.
Geo
-
A Centaur!
Very nice! Thanks Len.
:)
-
And now, something for the Novelty gang: Target vol5 #1 (or #49); c2c!
-
Well, that one hit the spot. Thanks, Len.
-
Another big thanks goes to you for your upload Len.
Geo
-
A lesser upload tonight: Avon's Jesse James #19; the 2 Joe Kubert JJ stories are reprints from #6. Also a Pancho Villa story, and some dummy Ghost Riders
-
Kubert art is always welcomed in my book Len. Thanks again for the upload.
Geo
-
Kubert's at the top of my want-list, but that JJ turned out to be a disappointment because his stuff was all reprinted from #6.
Meanwhile, over at Harvey Pubs: a nice, large, c2c scan of Speed 21 that I found at DC++, scanned by 'AquagirlTX'. Pat Parker! Black Cat!
-
And another thx to aquagirlTX - large, paper, c2c Feature Comics 22!
-
Thank you for the up's Len.
Ok people they are more then ready for you, go download 'em before there gone.
Wait that doesn't happen here luckily,
no year end sales,
just more new books to read!!
Geo
-
Speed Comics! ;D
Shock Gibson... Black Cat... Captain Freedom --
Len, you just made my night. ;)
-
Something different (for me) this a.m.: Popular Comics 67, c2c!
With Prof Supermind & his kid; and Martan the Marvel Man with his mate Vana from the planet Antaclea!
________________
Error! Error! I somehow uploaded 2 copies of the fc-scan, and couldn't delete one via my CP.
-
Hi Len,
I tried to fix it and accidentally deleted both front covers.
Sorry!
-
Thanks Len for "fixing" it, it looks yummy, need to take some time and read that book. Thanks again for the upload.
Geo
-
Pop 67 cover image re-added!
New scan (for jungle-babe fans :o ): Avon's White Princess of the Jungle #3!
-
Been looking for this for a long time, Len. Thanks!
-
Thank you Len, love those 'jungle' good girl art issues.
Geo
-
Thanks VERY MUCH for the Popular comic!!!!!!!!
Any chance you have more of the gems hidden away??
-
2 incompletes this a.m.:
Marvel Family 70: scanned from a coverless & HAG only has the fc; also the back page is damaged. So, I added fills from the current 2½-year-old ugly fichescan.
And Ace's 4 Favorites #5: no cover And no ow :'( ! HAG had one fc+bc, but there's 3 punch-holes.
-
Len check your PM please. See if that helps on this.
Geo
-
Another 4 Favorites! Outer wrap or not, anything is better than nothing at all!
Thanks Len! ;)
-
Thanksabunch, Len!
-
More drippy Fawcetts tonight:
A really ugly Cap Marv Jr 66, with badly chewed cover & several pages (see upload description). This is one HAG doesn't have, so you also get a small gcdb fc.
The current Canadian one has poorer scans of only 32 of the original 48 pages (see desc), but that includes almost all the damaged pages, so if anyone wants to combine them, have fun!
AND Cap Marv Jr 67: the fc & 30 pages (the 4 Junior stories) Only! Note that pg1 of the 4th story has the bottom 1/3 torn off.
Thx to Geo for a fixed 4Favs #5 cover; I'll upload a new version shortly.
-
Glad I could help Len, sorry I didn't have any better luck then you with the Capt. Marvel 66 cover, even Metropolis didn't have anything when I looked.
Anyway thanks Len for your new uploads, fills some holes.
Geo
-
Sorry, I did check Metro (I buy from them)... forgot to mention it.
But: one more 'improvement' upload: Cap Jr 81... nice real scans of the 4 Junior stories, this time with fills of darkmark's old fiches
-
Thanks Len, also your collaboration with darkmark is up too if you didn't know.
Geo
-
International co-operation! Just saw it... thx to DarkMark!
-
Movie Comics 04 (c2c 52p) different scan is the latest from freddyfly's scanner alomg with some help from Builderboy.
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
>:( Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Not Fawcett's title... it's Fiction House!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
...who said it was Fawcett?
-
ahhh...I see a copy was filed in the Fawcett folder. Did I do that Geo? my bad.
-
ahhh...I see a copy was filed in the Fawcett folder. Did I do that Geo? my bad.
Nope that was me, my bad.
It has been fixed.
Geo
-
Moving scans from one folder to another is very easy for the staff to do once they are on the site.
No worries about needing to reupload Len.
Thanks for fix Geo.
:)
-
Got scared there for a while, but it's a relief to know you won't need to re-upload me.
(That Movie4 actually was a Very Old upload, not a recent one, made c2c by builderboy!)
Back to new stuff: for the start of Hallowe'en month, how about a new Ghost Rider story... buried inside Tim Holt 25!
-
Thanks Len, alway look forward to your next upload.
Geo
-
Does anyone ever look backward to the last upload?
-
Yep,
Just the other day when people were saying a link wasn't working.
I had to look back to figure out which book they were talking about.
;)
-
Hi,
:( Oops... Thanks fior reminding me... I forgot to mention that links to 53 of the comicscans aren't working. :-/
Back to reality: yet more Dick Ayers' Ghost Rider: in Tim Holt 27
My copy is coverless, and there's none at HAG (or Metro), so no ifc/ibc/bc, but with a not-too-bad fc (not the ugly one at gcdb).
-
Instead of sleeping (scanners don't sleep much), I knocked off Durango Kid #12 ... not a title I'd bother with since the Dan Brands are already done (mostly), but I picked up a few in a batch that had the last 2 Tim Holts I uploaded. This was the only one with a cover.
-
Thanks for the latest, podner!
-
Thanks for all the GR stories Len!
:)
-
Does anyone ever look backward to the last upload?
See Len, I told you we were looking forward to your next upload. Thanks my friend for them.
Geo
-
On with the show!
Tonight: the other 2 Durango Kids I picked up: 8 & 14, both coverless, but HAG has fc&bc for both. Being basically lazy, I incorporated the current nice DanBrand scans except I replaced the two damaged pages from #8.
-
Thank you Sir, the rest of you please enjoy theses scans.
Geo
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
This a.m. a re-up of Ace's 4 Favorites #5 with the patched fc (thanx to Geo!)
-
Thank you Len, glad to be of help with it.
Geo
-
Feature Comics 083 (now c2c) with fills added by JonTheScanner, (thanks Jon), originally up'd by Freddyfly.
It has now been added to the download site for your pleasure.
Geo
-
This a.m., scans from elsewhere:
a nice c2c Feature 51 from aquagirlTX via dc++
and a re-up of Target v4n3 from bhc that has apparently been a broken link for over 7 months
-
Great job Len.
Wow, I'm shocked we missed the broken link too.
-
Hi,
What happened with vol8#3? It says it's been 'corrected'. But the info & date added in the 'description' are wrong... the info refers to the re-upped vol4#3, which is dated May/43 and has a Target-less Target story
-
And the Target for tonight is... #43! (aka vol 4 #7)
-
Keep 'em coming, Lenny!
-
Great issue! Thanks Len! :D
-
Target vol8#3 description is now corrected... I hope.
Thanks for the latest Len!
:)
-
Looks good! Thanks, Yoc!
Shifting Targets: this a.m. it's #41, better known as vol 4 #5!
-
Thanks for all of these Target issues, Len! ;D
-
Thank you for your latest upload Len.
Geo
-
And one more Novelty, this one of the Blue Bolt variety: vol 3 #5,
But it's missing the cf: text & stamp pages, and pg#1 of SubZero :'( ... one of the joys of buying at eBay!
-
Thank you Len, another fine add to the site.
Geo
-
One last upload for this week: Popular #60... missing only the ifc & ibc.
A beautiful Bhcomics scan (with fc+bc from HAG), featuring Prof Supermind; Marvel Man; and professional athletes' favorite hero: Dr. Hormone, master of human chemistry!
-
Thank you Len, there always welcome.
Geo
-
I should have said 'last upload of my own scans for the week'.
Here's a triple-Feature, thanks to DC++, all c2c paper: #24 (AquagirlTX scan), #47 & #67 (both Jon scans)
-
Thanks Len for your latest.
Geo
-
Thanks Very Much for uploading your own and Jon's scans Len!
:)
-
To start the week, a classic you've all been waiting for:
Western Crime Busters #8! Featuring K-bar-Kate and Wilma West! (and 2 cowboys)
But no Wally Wood art in this one.
-
Great, thank you Len.
Geo
-
This a.m. it's X-Venture #1! But no cover (fc&bc from HAG), and the last 5 pages were torn off ( >:( another eBay success story)! So, the 'true story' is missing along with the end of Lester Trumble
-
Still a very interesting and rare book. Thanks Len. :)
Too bad about the missing pages though. :'(
-
Great I have been wanting this one. I have issue 2
-
Thank you Len.
It's amazing that you find these gems.
Geo
-
Great I have been wanting this one. I have issue 2
Does the Atom Wizard appear in that second issue, narf?
-
Yes but not as a superhero just scifi. It was a real treat to see a superhero that I had never seen before in issue 1.
-
Sorry I couldn't provide a complete issue (the eBay seller said it was complete! I can understand somebody unfamiliar with comics not noticing a missing cf, but this was coverless with the back 5 pages obviously torn out).
Weird.
Speaking of Weird... I found 3 Weird Comics scans on an old CD that have never been uploaded: #s 9-11. All are somewhat lower-resolution than my current uploads (except for the HAG covers of 9&10), but still quite large. All are ad- & text-free, except for the back covers of 9&10. No #11 at HAG (or elsewhere) so I added an ugly fc I got from somewhere long ago.
-
Wow!
Thanks for the Weird Comics issues, Len! It's pretty rare to see this title turn up, much less to get three in a row! ;D
-
Nice thing to find. Nice for us all :o
-
Great update Len, thanks very much!
:D
-
Thanks for all the Weirdies, Len!
-
Freddyfly's latest:
Feature Comics 107 c2c now c2c
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Always nice to get credit, but this upgrade ain't my doing
-
When the majority of a book is by you or bhc it only seems right to continue to give you credit Len.
The fills are credited in the description area.
-
For all you Hornet fans, here's where you can find the missing stories:
[Link removed for PD status reasons, sorry]
-
Return to Fiction House (and Not more Wings!)!
Tonight it's Fight 19 - but missing the cf (Rio pages 5-8), so I added those 4 pgs from the current smallish scan.
Enjoy!
-
Thanks as always for your great uploads Len!
But we can't allow links to copyrighted works here on the forum as much as some would love them.
People, if you want the GH stories contact Len in a PM or look on DC++

'Paper' Feature 48 uploaded yesterday. I don't know if this is a compressed version of aquagirlTX's scan (at dc++), or a separate scan. I would've grabbed & uploaded hers to dcm, but I wasn't getting any dc++ connections, and I found the smaller file at aibq (anybody else remember aibq?)

It's definitely a different scan, because I have them both now. I'll upload hers here.
-
I saw the The Funnies 53 upload, so I upgraded my #54 upload to c2c.
Could someone dump my old 54 upload? (I tried but it doesn't show in my CP). Thx!
-
Done Len.
Geo
-
It was Spring/Summer of '54. The golden age was dying. Some new superhero titles appeared (Fighting American; Captain Flash; the return of the Timely big three), but they didn't last long. The Comics Code was on the way. The silver age made its first appearance with DC's Jimmy Olsen. And Fiction House was gasping its last after almost 16 years (Jumbo #1 - Sept 1938). Jumbo & Sheena were long gone; the last quarterly Wings, Ghost, Kaanga & Jungle were on the stands. All but Jungle are scanned... until now: Jungle #163 now uploaded!
-
Nice work Len!
This post deserves to be included with the download!
-
Yum, another Jungle Comics done Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Thanks very much for another ish of my favorite Fiction House title, Len.
-
More non-Wings Fiction House stuff tonight:
An update for Jungle #6: now with all 64 'paper' pagescans, and in more detail (dpi); plus HAG's fc&bc, and the old fichescans of the ifc&ibc.
-
Tnx very much Len!
Page order is off in the preview, we will investigate.
-
Some of the files are in the root of the archive, the rest in a folder, if you put all in the root, or the folder, they will show right in the preview.
-
Exactly right Nobby.
The entire book is there and if extracted to a single folder a working cbz file can be created.
This is a very nice upgrade to the earlier scans from bhc and Len well worth downloading gang!
Many thanks to Len and bhc!
:)
-
I found a nice Tim Holt 17 at DC++ (it's not another false alarm), but no info on the original scanner.
More Ghost Rider! Frazetta cover!
-
This is one of Frazetta's best covers ever. Thanks, Len.
-
Thank you Len.
And yes that is a nice Frazetta cover.
Geo
-
Tonight's addition: paper Wow #3, except it was missing the back page & bc, so I borrowed those 4 scans from Darkmark's fiche. Also, many thanks to yoc's magic editing for fixing pages 1&2! :o
-
It's been a long time since we got a new paper scan of Wow Comics. Thanks for bringing this one to us, Len! :D
-
Thanks Len for the paper update on Wow #3, much appreciated.
Geo
-
Thanks Len!
Happy to help anyway I can.
:)
-
Thank you Len for your latest upload/find:
G.I. Combat #39 c2c, another scan and edit by GI Wombat.
Geo
-
Geo beat me to the punch again!
So, I have another to announce: a new Novelty: c2c Blue Bolt v5#3 (and one more on the way this weekend)
-
Thank you Sir for your latest upload.
Yes it's available for uploading.
I also added Snard's name to the GI Combat file as it's the same file and was uploaded before yours, but somehow not added till I saw it.
Geo
-
And here's the other Bluish Bolt I promised: vol 4 #12!
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
Now uploaded: my first #1! Rangers Of Freedom! A special gift to Fiction House fandom, especially if you're weary of Wings
-
A huge thank-you to Len for buying and sharing this key issue with everyone here.
Bravo! :D
-
O-man a"Super Brain" story in this one. Wasn't there an origin story on Super Brain too?
Thanks Len for this one.
Geo
-
As far as I know, this Super-Brain only appeared in Rangers of F. 1-4
Tonight, a new Fawcett: Whiz 45. My copy has no cover or outerwrap, so the fc&bc are from the old HAG, and the other pages are borrowed from darkmark's old fiche.

Thanks Len for the info and thanks for Whiz 45 which is up.
Geo

Replacing another old fiche tonight: Harvey's Pocket Comics #4
-
Thanks for the uploads, Len. Would you believe we only lack three issues of WHIZ?
-
Thanks for the uploads, Len. Would you believe we only lack three issues of WHIZ?
Make that two Darkmark, Wham just up'd Whiz 152 last night.
And thank you Len for the paper copy of Pocket Comics #4 as always.
Geo
-
Somehow 4 pages vanished from my Pocket 4 upload (I saw a comment left on the download page, and checked the .zip file, and he was right). So..... a corrected version now upppped!
-
Thanks for the fix Len.
I tweaked the listing name to reflect the new upload was indeed an updated version.
I had planned on asking about that comment too but you beat me to it.
-
I was puttering around in the Durango Kid (M.E.) folder, and decided to use the Archives to fill in a couple of blanks: a complete (except 2 ad pages) DK #4, and a separate download for DK #16's Dan Brand story.
-
Thanks Len!
-
This time I was wandering around in the Jumbo folder, and found a recent comment about the Jumbo 14 file being 'corrupt'... actually, it was only somehow misnamed with extension .cr (wonder how many downloaded it and gave up), but nowadays with Microsoft dumbing everything down, lots of users don't know how to rename files.
So, I re-uppppped a corrected file [.cbr] and also fixed the number of fiche-pages (7, not 6), so you can delete the current one.
(By the way, can you guys re-name a file that's been uploaded so that it doesn't have to be reupped?)
-
Thanks Len!
It's tricky and I'm the only one that can correct file names as they are downloaded without needing to reupload.
Geo and Eric can change names as they appear on the site only.
If you spot anymore problems shoot me an email and I'll take care of it.
-Yoc
-
Another Jumbo upgrade!: #26
I've added the rest of the cover and one internal page (still missing 3 pgs), and I deleted my original upload via my CP
-
Thanks Len for the upgrade on #26 and also for Jumbo Comics #14 upload.
Very much appreciated.
Geo
-
Thanks Len!

This a.m. it's a new c2c Capt Marvel Junior: #31 (and it's not even a replacement for an old fiche)
-
Glad to see another Fawcett, my favorite GA company. If you have any more, get 'em ready!
-
Thank you kind sir for your latest up.
Geo
-
My latest up for downing: Crack Comics 53 -- from bhcomics... no ifc/ibc
-
Thanks for sharing this Len.

Always look forward to some sweet Crandall art which is included in this issue. That man could really draw.
Thanks Len for the upload.

Hi, Geo
I just uploaded the Boys Ranch 5 you requested. If it's not PD, pls un-upload it, or post wherever it's appropriate
-
Sorry Len,
Boys Ranch looks like it's not PD.
-
How about a Christmas flame?
Flame #7 to be precise, now in the Fox Folder!
-
How about a Christmas flame?
Flame #7 to be precise, now in the Fox Folder!
Not bad, not bad at all, with 3/4 of the US is at or below freezing. This should keep everyone warm during the 'season' with the "Flame".
Thanks Len for your latest upload, it's most welcome.
Geo
-
Got one more... an old one I guess I forgot to up. It's an upgraded Cap Marv Jr #4 to replace darkmark's old fiche (although it uses 21 of his scans). I've added fc+bc scans from HAG, and my 45 'paper' scans (the 4 CMJr stories minus the outer wrap and the last 4 pages of the 2nd story).
-
And still one more... Capt Marv Jr 7, another replacement for old fiches. This time it's complete 'paper' except the ifc/ibc. (I might as well mention here that my scanning-ID is partly from flying Freddy Freeman; CMJr has always been one of my favorites)
-
Thanks Len!
And hey, I should of known the Freeman connection but it never clicked.
Cool :)
Have a great Christmas!
-
Thank you kind sir for the last two "Christmas Presents" to all of us, we all enjoy them immensely.
Geo
-
As we await narfstar's Champ #19, Military #19, and Rangers #19-1, here's my first contribution to Blackhawkaaaaaaaa: #19! It replaces darkmark's old fiche which lives on in his ifc+ibc in my upload
-
Thank you Len, and yes it will live on.
Geo
-
As 2010 slowly morphs into 2011, I'm awarding a Prize tonight: #20!
Sadly, it's missing the centerfold (and ifc/ibc): the last 3 pgs of Yankendoodle, and pg 1 of Frankenstein.
And that's only the 'first runner-up' prize; 'first prize' will be awarded before 2010 sinks into the sea. Which will it be? You only have to take nothing away from the above upload.
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
Thanks very much Len!
Even an incomplete Frankenstein is a treat!
(and after all, he did come in bits and pieces in the book, right?)
;)
Looking forward to your New Years surprise
-
Thanks Len! Runner up Prize is better than none at all (and someone might be able to complete it at a later date)
In the meantime, can't wait to see what the Grand Prize is ... :D
-
Before returning to awarding Prizes, how about an early Whiz for New Year's Eve eve: #9!
But :'( no cover (HAG fc+bc), no outer wrap, no centerfold! So, 10 fichepages borrowed from darkmark.
-
Thank you for the "New Years Eve" treasure Len.
Geo
-
Thanks very much Len!
:)
-
It's 10:30 here in Ontario, which means (as of course you all know ;) ) that 2011 has arrived in Canada! (Newfoundland time zone). So. Happy New Year to you all, and here is the Prize I promised (take 'nothing' away from #20 and you get...) #2!
Another coverless scan, but the pages were complete! Fc & bc added from HAG, the greatest repository of large cover scans.
-
Wow, what a Great gift for the New Year Len!!
Thank-you very much!
:)
-
Happy New Years to you Len and thanks for the "Prize".
Geo
-
Only one contribution this week, and it's a replacement for old fiche: Master #97 ... paper except ifc&ibc are from the o.f.
-
Thanks Len!
-
:o Found new stuff that's been at DC++ for a while, so I'm adding them here.
Tonight: Cap Marv Jr 23; Crime & Justice 7 & 12
-
:o Found new stuff that's been at DC++ for a while, so I'm adding them here.

If I'm not mistaken those two issues of Crime & Justice should complete the run of that title. Cool!
Also forgive my ignorance but what exactly is DC++ ?
Best
Joe
-
Thanks veyr much Len!
Jose, try Google with "DC++" in the search field.
It's a peer-to-peer sharing application.
-
More from dc++ -- a couple of fichey Funnies: 35 & 48(with 'paper' John Carter)
By the way... can you figure out why #053 appears ahead of #001? I can't see anything wrong with it
-
Probably a pesky underline instead of a space in the title. It does not show up because of the whole title underline onsite. A mod can check and fix it in edit
-
Thanks Len.
And there were two spaces between the name and #53 so it was bumped to the top.
It's now fixed. Thanks for pointing it out.
:)
-
Phantom underlines & spaces.... a programmer's delight!
2 odd (for me) uploads tonight, thanks to bhcomics:
Star's Blue Bolt 104 (reprints from Novelty) (can the title be given its own section? Also many other Star titles...),
and the gruesome Fight Against Crime #17.
Both with no ad or text pages.

I'll see what I can do on setting up it's own section Len, (by tomorrow sometime, looks that a few more there can do with their own section too). Also thanks for the up's.
Geo
-
And one of my own scans: Pocket #3 - replaces another of darkmark's old fiches, but 10 of his scans survive because...
:'( my copy is coverless, missing the outer wrap, and 2 pages are torn out (a 2-page puzzle spread, with the last Satan pg on one flip side, and first Phantom Sphinx on the other).
-
It's still great to have most of the book in paper, Len. And we've still got DM's fiche scans to keep the book complete. :)
Thanks for the new scans!
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
Got a start on the categories Len will finish them up tomorrow for Star Publications.
Geo
-
3 more darkmark fiches replaced!:
Masters 36, 73, 93, but all with some fiche fills. The #93 Bulletman scans are new, not the reprints uploaded by PrimeUser
-
Cool! Thanks Len!
-
on the Pocket 3, I should have added that my upload was c2c, with dm's fiche fills included.
Onward...
A new #1 for you all: Columbia's Big Shot!
Another scanned from a no-cover/no-ow copy, but since no fiches are available, pages 2, 63 & 64 are missing as well as the inside-covers. Fc+bc from the ever-reliable old HAG, and a tilted, smallish page 1 from eBay.
-
With a book like BS 1 we take what we can get. In General Big Shot is a series we are lacking
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
And now, we return to our Fawcetts:
3 Cap Juniors (not fiche replacements!): 46, 54 & 92!
-
Thank you for the up's Len.
Geo
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
And now, at last, a new Jungle scan: #157 c2c!
-
Nice!
:D
-
Gotta love those jungle books, thanks Len.
Geo
-
Here's a new Ann of the Jungle (in the clutches of yet another gorilla), with her mate Kaanga!: issue #6
-
Thank you Len, and what can I say other then jungle books are always good, (Good Girl art that is!!!).
Geo
-
OK... how about one more: the last Kaanga (& Ann) #5 (although the series isn't complete, with #20 missing one story)
-
The rate at which some of these scan master work we may have the entire GA public domain output within this decade.
-
The rate at which some of these scan master work we may have the entire GA public domain output within this decade.
We can only hope Narf.
Thanks Len for your latest up by the way.
Alway appreciated.
Geo
-
The rate at which some of these scan master work we may have the entire GA public domain output within this decade.
That actually seems like a strong possibility, and I have to offer my gratitude to Len, Narf, dsdaboss, Rangerhouse, builderboy, archiver USA, and every scanner who is slowly making the dream of having every public domain book available for people (both in terms of enjoyment and research) a reality. I'm pretty amazed at how close DCM is getting to having complete runs of Kanga, Blue Beetle, Fighting Yank, and many more. I know that without this site, along with the generous help of everyone who buys the books and scans them in, I probably would never have been able to read these titles at all.
Once again, thanks guys. I can't wait to read what else turns up here in 2011!
-
Well said KB!
And I whole heatedly agree.
Three Cheers for All Scanners!
:) :D :)
-
I should've mentioned both you and Geo, Yoc. You guys have done a great job keeping up the site (as well as providing your own terrific scans). ;)
-
Carrying on...
Tonight it's Ghost Rider #11 (finishing this series is a primary goal) (also the few missing GR stories from Tim Holt etc).
And, from bhcomics: Ace's Super-Mystery vol 8 #2 (no ifc/ibc/bc)
-
Thank you kind Sir for the up's.
Geo
-
I should've mentioned both you and Geo, Yoc. You guys have done a great job keeping up the site (as well as providing your own terrific scans). ;)
Thanks for the kind words KB. Geo and I and the entire DCM staff do our best to make DCM a warm place to go to when you are looking for some GA reading fun.
:)
-
This is all great, Len. Kaanga is finished off and now you're getting back to Ghost Rider. We've got good stuff coming!
-
Ok.... so here's another Ghost Rider story: Best O' The West 5 (c2c); one more issue to go!
-
Hey Len,
I've tried to download this several times and it's not working.
Oh, nevermind. It was a Firefox problem. I got it fine with MS Explorer.
Thanks,
-Yoc
-
Well... back to Kaanga, in Jungle Comics: the second-last issue, #162
-
Looks great Len, thanks!
-
For fans of gun-totin' cowgirls: Western Crime Busters #4!
That's my 4th upload from the 10-issue run from Trojan. Any chance of giving the title its own section?
-
Thanks Len.
Yeah, I or Geo will add one for it sometime soon.
-
As February creeps across the land, and a monster storm heads my way, 2 new ups:
The Funnies, The #34 - all paper but no cover (except a pathetically small fc), and a long-neglected title: Novelty's Young King Cole #4 (and more to come).
-
Thank you Len for your latest upload.
Geo
-
Thanks Len but I'm afraid The Funnies has ERB's John Carter and likely isn't PD.
We will have to double check that. :(
Many thanks of course for the FH and other goodies for sure!
-
Since you mentioned FH, how about a pair of Rangers tonight: 59 & 62
-
Very nice!
Thanks Len
:)
-
Next in my month-long series of old Young King Coles: v2#3!
-
Month long, very cool!
Thanks Len!
:)
-
Yup. If I do one every 3 days, it'll take me until the end of Feb to finish.
Meanwhile, back in the Quality folder.... a c2c original Dollman 20 to replace (or join) the IW reprint.
-
Ha! Thanks Len.
I guess this makes Feb 2011 officially
'Len's Young King Cole Month on DCM!'
;D
-
Tonight, from old scanner Len (aka ff): a Fiction House golden oldie: Fight #3!
-
Thanks Len! :)
-
Wow, that's great, thanks Len!
NOTE - this issue has a Fletcher Hanks story in it as well.
:D
-
And now, here's my semi-weekly Young King Cole - vol3 #8!
-
A very early Quality this a.m. (replaces an old fiche): National #10!
-
Great stuff, thanks Len!
-
Back to one of my faves: Jungle #46!
And, 2 Populars that have been at dc++ for a while: 44 & 46 - paper c2cs!
I don't know the scanner, but this is included in their filenames: 'Etapi-Sooth'
To yoc: The Populars are real .cbr's... winzip won't open them, so changing the extensions to a compressed one will probably foul things up (changing the Populars to .cbz or .zip doesn't help: winzip recognizes that they aren't compressed).
Winzip does open bhc's .cbr's, which proves he zips them before converting to .cbr. I'll have to tell him about using .cbz
-
Thanks Len.
I checked and your latest uploads all work fine so that's great.
But if in doubt could you decompress them into a folder and rezip them into cbz?
-Yoc
-
"Sooth" is short for Soothsayr (no e there) who's relatively new on the scene and specializes in Dell and Gold Key generally. Etapi is someone you all know, but I can't tell.
-
The Populars can be opened and edited with Winrar and Z-Zip if the extension is changed to .rar. Winzip and the Zip function built into Windows Xp and later versions don't recognize the rar format.
Great scans. :) :)
-
I use winrar and 7zip and zipcentral (and others I've lost track of). Winzip in handy tho' for checking whether a .cbr was actually .zipped
More old stuff from DC++: 6 fiche Crackajacks (26-7 34 40-2) thx to PMack/Dell4c (all with HAG fc's) (and all cbz's)
-
Thanks very much for the files Len!
-
Oops... one more new paper Popular: #45 (I forgot the current upload was a fiche)
I changed the extension to .rar; hope it works ok
-
Look like it did ok, thanks Len for another paper copy.
Geo
-
Yesterday's upload: Tim Holt #4 (no Ghost Rider; no Dick Ayers at all; no Red Mask; just plain ol' Tim Holt).
Tonight: my semi-weekly Young King Cole: vol3 #4!
-
More fiche-replacement tonight: c2c paper Feature 104!
Preview: another Jungle tomorrow!
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
Tonight: next in my never-ending (?) Young King Cole series: v2#2! (with 800x600 thumbs!)
-
Thank you Len for another jewel.
Geo
-
Drips from the Fawcett: Captain Marvel Jr 49 - missing the cf!
Using the sometimes-correct info at the gcdb, it looks like the 3rd Jr. story is missing its first 3 pages (the 2nd story is complete)
-
Thanks Len.
The Keltner Index (see http://tinyurl.com/5szttnk (http://tinyurl.com/5szttnk)) will also tell you page counts on most GA superhero comics if you want a second source.
-
Many thx! I've heard of it, but never looked it up before.
Another drip: the old Master 61 Nyoka story turned out to be issue 114, so I re-upped darkmark's old 114 fiche with the Nyoka pages replaced, and I took the opportunity to relace the fc too with one from HAG (no bc) (I left dm's scan-naming intact) (and I forgot to shrink the uploaded page-scan... sorry)
Also tonight, the first upload of Standard's Broncho Bill: #11 (a 12-issue run numbered 5 to 16).
Possibly reprints of old Sunday pages.
-
Thank you kind Sir for your latest uploads, most enjoyable.
Geo
-
Thanks Len, never seen a BBill issue before.
-
Bought it by 'accident'... auction was for 3 Western comics, one of which was a Tim Holt I wanted; they were cheap so I bid on 'em and nobody else bid (also a Billy West in the scan-pipeline)
-
more old Young King Cole tonight: v3#7!
-
Thought I'd snoop around dc++, and I found one more Broncho Bill: #16!
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
Back to my favo(u)rites: a nice early Jumbo: #45!
-
Jumbo jungle books are always welcome here, thanks again Len.
Geo
-
Jumbo? Jambo! Thanks, Len.
-
I wonder if we'll Ever see any of the 8 early b&w's
-
You just never know what will pop here so I would not be surprised if they show up in the future
-
Tonight, some stuff from bhcomics, no text or ad pages as usual.
So far: Jungles 122 & 131; I didn't merge 131 with the current ancient original (Nov/06!) partial scan.
(and I forgot to shrink 131's thumbnail scans :'( )
Shortly: a Captain Marvel Jr quartet!: 43 73(replaces fiche) 96(replaces current poor scan) & 111
-
Good work on rounding all these up Len, thanks, I know I'll be enjoying them, I'm sure others will be too.
Geo
-
I've tried printing and scanning pages from a microwave scan of one of those issues, but the results are pretty sad.
-
and one from my tired, old scanner: Standard's Billy West #7, not to be confused with 1940's character actor Willie Best
-
I've gotten assorted msgs everywhere but here about a Jumbo 45 page malfunction: page 12 wasn't page 12... but now it is! Happy re-downloading! (for those who only want the 1 page, I upped it separately)
-
and one from my tired, old scanner: Standard's Billy West #7, not to be confused with 1940's character actor Willie Best
And I doubt very much if it's the silent comedian Billy West who's best known for being a Charlie Chaplin imitator.
Best
Joe
-
Thank you Len for the correction on Jumbo #45 and for the new upload of Billy West #7.
Geo
-
To bring this Billy West stuff full circle... how about this: Adam (Batman) West started out life as Billy West Anderson (see the imdb)... not to be confused with Broncho Billy Anderson, silent movies' first Western star... not to be confused with my earlier uploads: Broncho Bill, from the same publisher as Billy West. Now for a few aspirins...
Oh, one upload tonight: c2c Feature 116, to replace another old fiche
-
We'll all be looking for it Len, thanks.
Geo
-
WOW you are a comic scanning machine...
Great Stuff! Thanks
-
Back to my continuing series: Young King Cole v2 #5!
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
And in case you didn't catch it, Dick Cole co-stars in this issue's Young King Cole story. Thanks, Len.
-
Tonight, just a fiche-replacement: Wow 44, but the cf is missing so I borrowed it from darkmark's fichescan.
Lots in the pipeline: all sorts of Noveltys, some Jumbos, Ghost Rider stuff, Cap Marv Jr stuff, and assorted surprises!
-
Thanks for the Wow Comics replacement, Len! It's been quite a while since we've seen one of those! :D
-
Thanks for the replacement Wow issue Len.
Geo
-
Tonight, in place of the Cole family, how about the Gayle family: another title that's seen very little action: Novelty's Guns Against Gangsters #3.
It sort of follows Young King Cole. When YKC became Criminals on the Run, Toni Gayle was switched to this new title (and also added to 4Most), and joined by her uncle Gregory Gayle in his own strip (Gunmaster).
-
Novelty's comics to not get the attention of Fawcett or Quality but they had a pretty long run and output. I think it is due to the fact that they were not heavy in and early out of the superhero game. Contributed to their longevity and now lack of major fan interest.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Hi yo, Lightnin', away! With his faithful Indian companion Bright Feather, the daring and resourceful masked rider of the plains led the fight for law and order in the early West. Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear. The Lone Rider rides again! (in issue #14, that is). ^-^
-
Thanks as always Len for your "Western" upload.
Geo
-
Tonight, Master 91 (with new scans of the old partial-issue upload).
BUT... missing the cf; BUT.. it's all ad pages (or maybe 1-page toons).
-
Thanks Len!
-
Masterful!
-
A couple of nice ones as we March towards Spring:
the final Firehair: #10 (c2c!), and Startling 24 (no ifc/ibc).
-
The Startling Comics 24 was a great surprise! Thanks Len!
-
Nice Len, your starting the month out right. Thanks for the up's.
Geo
-
Back to my 2-month-long series: Young King Cole v3 #6!
-
Thanks Len!
-
Time to start filling in the few Airboy blanks: tonight it's vol 7 #9 (a Heapless issue!)
-
I've really been enjoying the "Young King Cole" books. I had never seen an issue before you first started posting these a few months back and I was amazed by how good the lead stories are, as well as most of the other features.
-
Time to start filling in the few Airboy blanks: tonight it's vol 7 #9 (a Heapless issue!)
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
So far tonight, only 7 new pages: added to the partial Jumbo 28 (you can delete the current old upload); still incomplete but now missing only the text-cf, and the rest of the cover (still no HAG scan, but I found a much-cleaner fc at eBay, but no larger than the current one)
-
Thanks for the upgraded Jumbo Len!
-
This time, it's a complete new Jumbo: #63!
Also, 2 improved Crackajacks (thx to dc++), now c2c: #37 (added 19 pgs - all fiches) & #38 (added 33 'paper' & 8 fiches) (I removed the old ups)
-
Thanks a bunch, Len!
-
Thanks for the improved Crackajack issues, Len. Frank Thomas' "Owl" is a highly entertaining series and the rest of the features aren't bad either.
It's always good to have a new issue of Jumbo which should make lots of members happy.
-
Thanks again Len for your latest up's, much appreciated.
Geo
-
Tonight... one more old Dell from dc++: The Comics 8.
And a minor upgrade: a full-scan centerfold added to Tim Holt 15 (I credited the original scanner -kingfaraday- and myself on the upload; you can delete the original).
And for Novelty fans, a change from all the YKColes (but there's lots more to come): for the first time in many years, a new early 4Most: #3!, but :'( with no centerfold (4 pages out of the middle of the Edison Bell story)
-
Thank you Len for your latest uploads.
Geo
-
Thanks Len!
-
Indeed, thanks, Len. You're knocking out a ton of comics these days. Keep doing it.
-
It's going to be March madness for me.
Tonight, back to my fave: Tim Holt #30 with Ayers' Ghost Rider (vs The Harpy)! (new scans, so you can keep the old partial upload on the site). (2 non-GR issues later this week... 9 & 35)
-
Two from bhcomics: Fight 72 (no text/ads), and MarvFamily 85(c2c, but ifc/ibc/bc are fiches borrowed from darkmark; this replaces the two current fichescans).
Also, almost ready: the next Young King Cole... v2#7
*** error... error ***
I forgot to add the 3 fiches to my MFam 85; dm saw it and reversed the process: he added bhc's 33 pages to his 3 fiche pages, and re-upped his file... so... I deleted my up.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Freddy, Your scan of Marvel Family #55 is missing the last page of Captain Marvel Jr (between your 30 & 31) and the second page of CapKid (after your page 34). Do you have those?
TIA, Jon
-
Hi Jon, that was fixed a while back.
http://digitalcomicmuseum.com/index.php?dlid=11452
-
And, by coincidence, another Family up'd tonight: #49 (replaces DM's fiche).
It's 44 paper (42 from bhc, and HAG fc/bc), with 8 fills stolen from dm's fiche
-
Thanks, Len, it's good to see commitment to Family values. ;-)
-
Thank you Len for the updated Marvel Family, more paper the better I say. But we/I have to thank DM for the fiche copy in the first place.
Geo
-
And for the start of Daylight Savings Time (the real start of Spring ;D ): another Jumbo: #70!
-
Yes, Daylight Saving Time is off to a great start with your latest up, thanks Len.
Geo
-
A test upload: 3 stories from Ace's Lightning vol2#4 gathered mainly from blogspot. For 2 stories, there's a blogspot 'credit' at the bottom of each image. Is this ok for The Site? If not, I can edit out the credit. If it's ok, I have a few more.
-
Hi Len,
These look to be heavily 'cleaned up' in Photoshop and possibly be considered 'new works' and copyrighted by the blog in question. If you can get their permission then by all mean please do share them but for now I think it better to just post a link to the blog in question as they are doing some cool work there!
http://goldenageheroes.blogspot.com/ (http://goldenageheroes.blogspot.com/)
Thanks for mentioning it Len.
-Yoc
-
A new complete (except for the ifc/ibc) Ghost Rider #1!
(to geo/yoc: You can leave the current partial scan on the site if you want; the pages were gathered long ago from other sites. I decided not to re-use them in my upload, and scanned my whole comic)
-
Thanks Len, I'll let Yoc do whatever with the old one.
Geo
-
Wow, great addition Len!
:)
-
And the last in my current batch of M.E.s: Manhunt #3! (and I know I'm repeating myself, but this title & several other MEs could be put into their own sections)
-
Thanks Len, we are working on it.
-
I'm on it Len, it's coming.
Geo
-
Nice job on the ME's!
assorted new stuff tonight; some mine, most from bhcomics, and one from DC++:
Wings 109; Samson (Ajax) 13-4;
And replacements for old fiches and some of my old partials (now much less partial):
Master 83; Air Fighters #4; Airboy v2#12, v4#5&6, v6#2, v7#10!
arrrrrrrgh...... I fouled up the v2#12 upload; there are 2 copies but the 2nd is invalid. PLs delete!
-
Great stuff Len, thanks very much!
:)
-
Thanks for all of the new books, Len.
-
Beautiful stuff, Len! I seem to have a problem getting the Airboy v2 #12....I see that it has been downloaded 36 times, but it gives me a 'file missing' error?
Could an admin check this out?
-
I deleted the wrong one, sorry!
Len, I'll reupload but I believe you can delete any of your own uploads should you have this happen again.
Wonderful job all the same, sorry for the screw up gang.
-
All I can say is WOW!!!
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Airboy v2 #12 now working, thanks for spotting this BB
I added a slightly nicer cover to the original file as well.
-

Sweet, Yoc. Thanks for taking care of it....I am all over it now. 8)
-
The last time this happened, I tried deleting from my CP and it went wrong, so I was hoping you could delete it correctly at your end. (I think it happens when I 'browse' back to the page where I click Confirm, and somehow it adds a second invalid upload (I can tell because the page-scans don't appear).
Speaking of page-scans..., more work for you :'( ... the last 3 I upped (AB v4n5&6, & AF #4), need the fc re-named from '...pg 00fc.jpg' to '...pg 00-fc.jpg'
It turns out that hyphens come before letters, so 00F-ifc shows up ahead of 00fc
So... that replaces the last 3 nearly-all-fiche Airboys (still several Air Fighters to find), and the v2n12 that had Airboy only. I can't help with all the AB ups that have AB & Heap only, but I'm working on the Very Last missing issue - v9#6
Thx to all for the help, and comments! I'll probably be scanning from my grave (I'll need wi-fi in my coffin, and a really-longlife battery... maybe thay can attach solar cells to the gravestone, and run a wire down...) ;D
-
Hi Len,
Perhaps if you know which is the 'bad' version you could rename it in 'edit'?
I just assumed the one without the thumbnails must have been the 'bad' one. I didn't check for the actual file being valid.
Sloppy on my part.
-
That's exactly what I thought... the second (invalid) one was the one missing the thumbnails.
I guess the links get messed up; next time I'll dump both and start over.
Major upload tonight: one page and one back cover!: Airboy v4n7: the missing Heap pg1 + a bc + a better fc. I need your help to dump my old upload; it doesn't show up in my CP
And, my last note wasn't quite right: there's still one almost-all-fiche issue: v5#12
-
Thanks for all the Airboys, Len. Keep 'em flying!

I just removed it Len, just start it all over again and all will be good.

now fixed
-
For April Fool's, the last And final Super-Mystery: v8#6... no foolin'!
No ads (except ifc house ad) or text story
-
Thanks Len. That's better than any typical joke.
:)
-
Yesterday it was a nice early Jumbo: #24, and more Guns Against Gangsters: #2.
Today it's 3 Crackajax from dc++: 13(no cf), 19 & 20
-
Tnx Len! Nice finds.
:)
-
:o At last... the last (and final) 8 paper Police Comics that I promised earlier:
23 24 27 29 32 done so far; 5, 13 and #7's centerfold after I get some supper. All thanx to Snard at DC++!!
-
That's one amazing update, Len! Thanks for posting these issues from Snard! ;D
-
Thank you Len and Snard for the find and uploads. Nice way to finish a Sunday.
Thanks again gentlemen.
Geo
-
Ohh, great stuff Len!
And thanks very much to Snard for sharing them as well!
:)
-
The Police Comics look great, Len. When are you getting to the issues featuring Sting?
-
I have to admit, I really enjoyed the Plastic Man stories a lot more when he was a crook, Eel O'Brien (great name, BTW) doubling as a crime fighting superhero on the police force. Maybe I'm alone on that.
-
Stingless Polices now done! (you can delete all the old fiches and my original up of #7... I tried but it doesn't show in my CP).
Also, too, this a.m.: the last (and final!) unscanned Airboy: v9#6! No old fiches for this one, but there are a bunch of other old replaced-fiches that can be deleted if you're in a Spring-cleaning mood ;)
-
Ohh, great stuff Len!
And thanks very much to Snard for sharing them as well!
:)
I appreciate the kudos, but I need to point out that only one of these are my scans: that would be Police #5. The remaining scans are from Flattermann. Also, #5 should actually be credited to "Snardermann" (which means that Flattermann bought the book but I scanned it).
Thanks!
-
I'll correct them, thanks again to you and Flatterman, snard!
:)
-
Thanks, I've never read Police Comics and have missed allot! Great Stuff!
-
Whoever we have to thank for the paper scans of those Police issues, I'm grateful. That's prime material and the scans are all excellent.
-
Snard and Flatterman have been replacing fiche scans for Police Comics for a while now Jon.
Doing great work as you said. Thanks guys!
:)
-
Police Comics #46 still has some poor fiche pages due to a missing centerfold (I think). But otherwise, it's pretty stunning that DCM almost has a complete run of Police Comics in paper. Many thanks to Snard, Flatterman, and the Police Comics Project for making this possible.
-
I agree KB.
I checked Police 46 here - I don't see any fiche there.
-
The first two pages of the Manhunter story are fiche (or really blurry, at least). Check pages 49 and 50, Yoc.
Oh, and nice astronaut suit! :(|( ;)
-
Thanks KB, I was wondering if anybody noticed.
Not my best work but something new for the Anniversary day. I'll crank something better out when I'm better inspired down the road.
Any thanks for pointing out those pages. I've updated the entry for Police 46 on the site. Nice catch.

-Yoc
And just in time for that update - the fiche pages (complete and partial) have been updated with paper scans, courtesy of Flattermann. I will be uploading it shortly.
Once the new upload is in place, please delete the other scan (since those edits are also mine)
-
Will do Snard. Thanks again for all the JVJ scans that have recently been added.
:)
-
Thanks Flatterman and Snard.
I think that just leaves Police Comics #45 as the only issue with fiche pages. The rest are paper. Woohoo! ;D
-
Thanks Flatterman and Snard.
I think that just leaves Police Comics #45 as the only issue with fiche pages. The rest are paper. Woohoo! ;D
I see my work is never done... :)
I'm uploading an all-paper Police 45 as I type this - the same parent scan as the one we have, but the centerfold pages have been upgraded. I don't remember who supplied the fills. So, same drill as before, you can remove the fiche-cf version once this new one is uploaded.
Now, are there ANY MORE that we have missed?? Hmmm??? :)
-

DANG! I just noticed I accidentally uploaded it to the wrong section (Plastic Man instead of Police). Yoc, can you please move it?
-
Snard it looks as if Yoc already did it for you.
Geo
-
Thanks Snard! :D
I finally have a complete run of Manhunter in paper. Someone pinch me.
-
Snard it looks as if Yoc already did it for you.
Geo
Actually, after posting that "DANG!" message, I realized that I had the ability to edit my own upload & move the document to the correct location.
Thanks,

-
Help! I'm losing control of my new-upload-message section! Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh....
Where was I.......... Oh, new uploads............
Continuing 2 of my on-going series: Young King Cole and 'Last & Finals':
It's the last&final Young King Cole: v3#12!
While the comic continued under another title, the best part (Toni Gayle) was moved to a new comic.
-
Wow, great job on YKC Len!
Bravo! :)
-
So, how about the Last&Final unscanned Airboy: v5#12... c2c with 6 ad&text fills from dm's old fiche. I also included the Pappy version of Airboy, so you can dump the old upload
-
Will do. Thanks for the new c2c version Len.
-
Thanks a bunch!
-
Right after my Airboy upload, I realized I mis-numbered the two text-fiche pages, so I added a comment on the upload page. dM has re-packaged my upload and fixed the numbering, so you can keep whichever version you feel is best (but the old fiche can go).
This a.m. it's yet another anonymous 'paper' crackajack from dc++: #18;
and a new scan of the Last&Final Redmask issue: #54, with dM's fiches of the ads & text pages
-
Thanks Len. I've removed the extra versions.
And sorry to hear about your scanner not being healthy.
I hope that isn't a big problem.
-
It's started adding a bright vertical line towards one side. It started doing it once before, but it cleared up after not too long. This time it seems to be permanent. It's only a problem with the wider earlier comics; mostly I can position the page so that the line is off the page I'm scanning.
Tonight: the Last&Final Novelty Blue Bolt: v10#2... my last&final Last&Final for now. But, lots more comics to scan. Such as tonight's Ace's Super-Mystery v8#4 (c2c for change!).
Coming soon: the first Prize's Charlie Chan!
-
Thanks for all the stuff, Len! It is appreciated.
-
I have a similar problem intermittently. It's not a bright line but a pale pink vertical line. I can usually manage to position the comic so the art isn't affected. But the next time I turn the scanner on, it might not be there at all. Right now I'm in a lucky phase -- haven't seen it at all for a while.
-
Chan is almost ready; meanwhile, an assortment:
from my scanner: Young King Cole v2n4;
from bhcomics: Jungles 143-4 (no text or non-house ads);
from DC++: Populars 78 & 81
-
Great updates, thanks Len!
:)
-
All of these are great, Len! We're down to 16 Jungles now...wonder if we can get them all?
-
All Jungles except #8 are in the works; it depends on priorities.
My (&BHC's) last contributions will be 121 124 127 136 138 145.
This a.m.: Green Hornet 34 (no GH, of course, but the GH scans have been around for years. Also, 8 of the Man in Black pages have been borrowed from the same old scan).
And, back to M.E.: original Red Mask #51: fc + story pages.
-
Great news Len.
And thanks for the uploads!
-
When you say "last contributions", does that mean you won't be contributing any more after the Jungles? I hope not!
-
:( Oops.... that should be 'last Jungle contributions'. I have a mountain of stuff to scan (altho' a large %age is non-PD).
An updated, non-'buggy' ChChan #1 now uploaded!
-
And it's good to go Len, thank you very much for the updated Charlie Chan #1.
Geo
-
And I'll end April with one of my faves: an early-1950's Joe Kubert western: Jesse James #7
-
Cool cover too.
Thanks Len!
-
Now that it's May, another Western, featuring gunslingin' cowgirls K-bar-Kate & Wilma West:
a title I've had to myself so far: Western Crime Busters #5
-
Western fans rejoice with these two books. Thanks Len for the up's.
Geo
-
Another gun-slingin' cowgirl: Rhoda West, in Billy West #3 and #8!
And back to a modern-day crime-bustin' gal: Toni Gayle in Young King Cole v3 #11
-
Thanks Len!
I know how much more trouble these are for you working on your buggy scanner.
:)
-
Thanks again Len for your latest up's.
Geo
-
I kicked the scanner (the machine!) around a bit, hoping either to kill it or cure it, and I seem to have partially cured it... the line is still there but not as prominent.
But tonight's contributions are from others: etapi-sooth's Popular 79 (c2c paper), and 4 Jungles from bhcomics: 121 124 127 136 (all with no text stories or non-house ads)
-
Looks great, Len! Keep the Jungles coming!
-
Thanks very much to both of you Len!
:)
-
Last night was missing-centerfold night... Thrilling 61 (Princess Pantha pages 1-3 gone!), and Wild Bill Pecos - the Westerner #26, missing 4 pages from a random story about an outlaw; origin of gunslingin' Calamity Kate, and the Krigstein story are ok!
-
Opps!, my bad for not thanking you earlier for your upload Len. Yes, it's to bad the Princess Pantha pages are missing from the story. Even Wild Bill Pecos was an interesting read too.
So check them out folks.
Geo
-
This has become my week for damaged and/or incomplete comics.
Tonight it's Blue Bolt v9#9 (LB Cole cover), with 3 pages torn out. It looks like all the cartoon pages were removed, but unfortunately the last page of 2 stories are also gone.
And, a new issue of the comic Millions were clamoring for: Sam Hill #7! As you'll see, the pages were badly stained & moldy. They had also become brittle, so you're left with almost no border on 2 sides of almost all the pages and some bits missing along the tops.
-
Thanks Len. If Sam Hill smelled as bad as it looks I imagine it will take some time to air your office out.
-
I'm grateful that Len went to all the trouble to preserve scans of Sam Hill #7. As obviously poor shape as the book was in, he still came up with some very readable scans. I just happen to think "Sam Hill" was one of the best things every produced in MLj/Archie Comics/Archie Adventure Series/Radio Comics checkered history, and I enjoyed the four stories a great deal.
-
Continuing my theme of smelly, moldy, damaged comics: half of Feature #88 (outer 7 of 14 wraps, plus the fc from the old HAG). The top inch or two is a disaster and the top row of panels is damaged on most of the pages. But Dollman is complete (also Spin Shaw & Rusty Ryan).
On the other hand, I've upped an improved Westerner 26, now with the centerfold.
-
Thanks Len!
-
I thoroughly enjoyed the Dollman story from Feature #88.
-
Tonight: 2 whole pages! -- the 2 missing scans from Avon's Jesse James 5.
I need your help to remove the previous upload... it's an old one that somebody else transferred from gac (also, it's from the days before I began adjusting colo(u)r & contrast).
Tonight (or tomorrow): more incompleteness, this time because of copyright ishoos: Green Hornet 28, without the 10-pg GH story.
-
Done, thanks for the fills Len.
:)
-
I'm looking forward to Green Hornet #28, even without the Green Hornet. I've enjoyed the other Hornetless issues on site and I hope to see more.
-
As always, thanks for uploading the Green Hornet issues, Len. :)
-
Thanks, Len. Page 37 seems to have been scanned backward. Can this be corrected?
-
arrrrrgh.
I'll check that page tomorrow (I'm doing this just before quitting for the day).
Meanwhile... a new #1 for the dcm: Avon's Jesse James, with Joe Kubert's Alabam!
-
Thanks Len!
-
re GH28 pg37... just wanted to see if anyone's paying attention.... :D
I'll re-up the issue tonight with a mirror-image of the mirror-image page!
Also tonight: the last 2 Jungles from bhcomics (or me): 138 & 145.
For the others (except #8): 47,54,62,85,139,154 & the missing cfs (31,56,60(2),64) it'll be up to the JVJ-collection guys & BB. There's also 4 incompletes: 73,95,132,142 that nobody (as far as I know) has.
-
Excellent work Len, our thanks to you and bhc for all the scans!
-
Tonight I'm combining 2 of my ongoing series into one up: my Young King Cole run, and my moldy oldies: it's Moldy King Cole v2 #6 (it's not as bad as my earlier moldy efforts).
That ends Vol 2; I have a few more vol 3s to do (and a few Blue Bolts) (and Westerners) (and Fawcetts)
-
Cool Len, look forward to seeing them when they are ready.
Geo
-
but before I get to those...
it's Tim Holt #3! All- Frank Bolle TH stories.
And a complete ow for Wonderworld #8 (first 2 pages of current upload have a large chunk missing; back 2 are also damaged). I'll have to let someone else decide how to collate them
-

Len, you have a ftp account don't you? Put it up there and one/or all of us Mods/Admin here can look it over for you.
Geo
-
Darkmark is usually good for combining and reuploading.
DM?
-
I'll see what I can do. Just keep uploading those great comics.
ETA: It's now up on the FTP in my folder. All yours, guys.
-
Thanks DM!
:)
-
A few from bhcomics tonight (all without ads & text): Hit 56, Fight 79, and an incomplete Charlie Chan(Prize) #4: missing 2 cfs, and several pages have a chewed corner; and 2 more tomorrow: Strong Mans 2 & 4. Plus, from my scanner: Blue Bolt v3#11.
-
Wow, nice! Thanks guys.
:)
-
Immerse your scanner in cold water. Unplug it first.
-
??
-
Just a joke about how hot his scanner must be after all that work.
-
Ahhhhhhhh, very true!
:)
-
I was very glad to see you add the two missing "Strongman" issues. I love the Bob Powell artwork, which I think is some of the best underated work from the fifties. I really got a kick out of the Robbin' Hood story in issue #4. Too bad ME didn't publish more of the Strongman issues.
-
And a happy June to you all! One more Shuttle flight to go and it's all over. If it takes them as long to get the next 'launch vehicle' ready as it did the Shuttle, none of us will be around to see it. So much for my planned trip to Mars. :'(
Oh... three new scans from bhcomics (mostly no text/ads): Ajax's Flame 2 (the desc posted with the first issue needs fixing: it's not a reprint... Lone Eagle 1-4 became Flame '#5'; the next 2 issues became #s 2 & 3. And that leads to another correction: on the main Ajax page it says there were 4 Flame issues but there's only 3).
And Orbit/Wanted's Westerner (Wild Bill Pecos) #14 (first issue). Another small correction: the main Orbit pages says there's 27 issues, but it should be 28.
And Eastern's Reg'lar Fellers Heroic Comics #5, which leads to yet another correction: on the main Eastern page, this comic's original title should be changed from 'Reg'lar Fellas No. 1-15' to 'Reg'lar Fellers Heroic Comics No. 1-15'. It's that way on the cover & in the indicia.
And, my c2c Target v2#11 is almost done; I'll up it tomorrow. I said earlier (in the 'lounge') that it was missing the cf, but it's complete, except... the first page is missing a large top-corner chunk.
-
Thanks Len!
And I've made all the corrections you suggested.
Looking forward to the Target.
Sorry about Mars
-
Thanks for the updates, and looking forward to the target as well!
-
Two Cracks from bhcomics tonight: #33 (pgs 7-8 missing & no ibc/bc), & a replacement for an old fiche: #49 (c2c but ifc/ibc/bc borrowed from darkmark's fiche).
I upped another in my now 3-month-old Young King Cole series a few days ago; I still have a few more to do before summer ends
-
Thanks Len!
-
Can't-nucks. Arrrrrgh!
From bhcomics, some cowboy stuff tonight (no Kubert art, but some nice Kinstler stories): Jesse James 8, 26, 27 (last 2 are probably all-reprint; both even have a war story).
And a Wild Bill Pecos - the Westerner 35. I have several of those to do, mainly the issues with Calamity Kate.
-
I enjoy the Young King Cole book and will be glad to see "new" ones.
I'm not familiar with K- Kate, and I'm curious enough to read at least a few. She's a character I can't even recall reading or hearing about and it sounds like one my much older brother might recall, since he was very fond of western and cowboy comics.
-
Tonight, starting a new (but short) series: all-paper replacements for some old Air Fighters fiches... first: #5!
-
Wow, thanks Len!
:)
-
Thanks, Len!
-
Anytime fiche files are replace with scans made from a paper copy that is good news, especially when it is something like early issues of Air Fighteres which are being upgraded.
Thanks.
-
Hi, gang....
this time it's a 'peper' replacement for a nice old Master: #7
-
Oooo, nice one Len, thanks!
This is now the earliest Master to be scanned from peper.
:D
-
Nice scans and edits on Master #7, freddy! But is there any chance of recompressing the scans at a higher resolution? If I view these at normal comic book size on my computer (with a good LCD flatscreen display) the scans come out a bit blurry. I think you can risk enlarging the total file size to 45 or 50 megs without it getting too out of hand. I do recommend scanning at 300dpi and then resizing to 1024 pixels width. That seems to provide clarity without it bloating into just too many megs. Call me obsessive, but I do worry that skimping on the resolution size now will seem shortsighted 5 years down the line. And now may be the only chance we have to scan many of these classics.
But all that aside, your brining this issue into paper instead of fiche is much appreciated.
-
I'm afraid I'd need much newer & faster equipment to scan at anywhere close to 300dpi and still have a life, or scan many fewer comics. I do scan somewhat denser for these really-early issues.
Back to two of my favo(u)rite series: Young King Cole v3#9 (more of Wayne Boring's Toni Gayle including the cover); and some gun-totin' cowgirls in Crack Western 81 (Two-gun Lil) and Westerner 27 (Calamity Kate!) (upped a few days back)
And 2 more Jesse Jameseses from bhcomics (who also supplied the Crack W 81): 21 & 24, both all-reprint (I believe)
-
Wow, thanks Len!
:)
-
A minor upload: the 2 super- or costumed-hero stories of Feature 94: (Dollguy & Rusty Ryan)
A minor request: can the info for the 'fixed' re-up of my bhc scan of Speed 7 be changed back to:
title: Speed 007 (62 of 68 pages)
desc: front cover + 61 of 64 pages [the missing-pages info can stay as is]. Thx!
-
Thanks Len.
I've tweaked the Speed7 listing for you.
-
Thx!
Sorry, but can you do it again for Lone Rider 8... rename it (23 of 32 pages) instead of (inc).
Also, altho the preview works, the thumbnail-coverscan no longer appears.. it's just a black box.
(I'd do it myself, but these fixed uploads no longer appear in my CP)
(I know this isn't the place for it, but the 'fixed' Rockeman 1 isn't... there's no coverscan & no preview)
One new upload coming up (tonight I hope; maybe tomorrow): the next in my paper fiche-replacement Airfighters series: v2#1
-
Ok Len. I've changed the LoneRider 8. I added a screen shot of the cover to save a complete re-upload. If you see a black cover thumbnail it seems to mean the first file is not a jpg. Gif files always show black for instance. But I don't think we need to reupload the entire book unless you really want to do so.
I've also re-added the Rocketman1 book to the next list of books to be fixed by Prime user when he's ready for it. It might take a little while, my last list to him was quite large.
Note, if you'd like to make any fixes on your own please check your uploads and be sure that both the Auto Cover Thumbnail and the Preview functions are working. Those and old errors where file download names don't reflect the file being downloaded (usually March1, 2008 file dates) are the main things Prime user and I are trying to correct. Thanks for pointing out the problems and thanks for the upload as well!
:)
-
Will do! The coverscans usually don't appear right away, so I try to check back an hour or so later. I've begun checking the Preview feature.
My uploads of bhc's scans from several months back probably needed 'fixing' because he was .zipping files and then renaming them .cbr instead of .cbz.
When I figured out what was happening, I started changing them to .cbz before upping them.
-
Thanks Len we appreciate the help and especially the scans!
;)
-
Hey Len, I wanted to applaud your scan of Airfighters v2#1. There's some very nice art in there and I especially appreciate the larger Black Angel scans! Thanks Len!
Check it out if you haven't gang!
:)
-
Tue nue Blue Bolts from bhcomics tonight: v5#6 (no cf) & v6#6 (c2c!)
V5#6 has a nice Canadianish wintry Edison Bell story.
Re the Lone Rider 8 fix fix: thx for fixing the title, but the images are going backwards. Under 'screenshots' only the cover now appears, and there's still a black box where the cover should be. On the other hand, the 'preview' function works ok.
-
Thanks for the upload Len.
Hmm, ok, I'll take a personal look at Lone Rider 8.
-
A-ok! The Lone Rider 8 fixed fix is now truly fixed!
Back to another of my never-ending series with more gun-totin' cowgirls: Western Crime Busters #9, this time with Wally Wood art!
-
Nice, thanks Len!
-
Starting tonight, some Airboy improvements: I'm going to replace all my Airboy/Heap-only ups with near-c2c versions (missing only ad/text pages; all are bhcomics' scans).
So... tonight it's v6 #s 6,7,8,10; v7 #s 2,5,11.
I was able to remove a few of my old ups via my CP, but most of them are missing. Could you dump the rest? (also my old partial v6#2 can go, and 2 old v7#10 fiches) Thx!
-
Will do, thanks very much Len!
-
Thanks for Startling Comics 48, Len! Another Fighting Yank story I've never seen! :D
-
Just upped a new version of AIRBOY COMICS v6 #10 with Len's paper scans and my fiche fills. And thanks for all the goodies, Len.
-
Thanks DM, going up soon.
-
It's available now. Thanks Len and DM.
Geo
-
Part 2 of my Great Airboy Upgrade Project: 9 nearly-complete scans (from bhcomics; no text/ad pages) to replace Airboy/Heap-only scans:
For these 5: V7n4; v8n10; v9 n2,8,10, I was able to delete my old partial scans;
for these 4: v8n9,11; v9n1,3, I couldn't, so I need your help to remove them.
Also, you can dump my old partial v8n3, and a useless partial v8n4 under my name that I Didn't upload.
And that ends it! (except I have a few more AirFighters to scan to replace old fiches)
-
Sweet! I'll get on those tomorrow Len.
Thanks very much for these Much Needed upgrades!
:D
-
;D I'm back! You probably saw my Frankie 13 upload a day or two back; tonight it's back to my Air Fighters fiche-replacement project: #10!
-
Thank you Freddyfly for the up's.
Geo
-
Wonderful stuff, thanks very much Len and welcome back!
:D
-
Tonight, tonight, there will be no morning star....
but: there is a new c2c Feature Comics #80... the first of 4 Features I'll up over the next week or so
-
Nice! Looking forward to more as well.
Thanks Len. :)
-
This a.m.: Novely's Guns Against Gangsters #4, featuring the .357 Magnum!
Also: I upped a 'fixed' Punch 14 (Preview now works, and I added screenshots), so you can dump the old one. There was no 'author' credit.
To yoc: I was browsing the Punches because I'm getting a coverless issue I can't ID. It turns out to have the Rocketman story you upped as a partial #18, but according to the gcdb, it's not #18 (they have a full #18 index). Unfortunately, the issue with that RM story isn't indexed, so I can't ID it.
-
Thanks Len.
Hmm, I guess I should mark that as an unknown issue story then.
:(
-
Yesterday it was Billy West #1!
Today, it's ME's Manhunt #5, a title that needs more uploads. (Space Ace! Undercover Girl! Red Fox of the RCMP!, plus Fallon of the FBI! Kirk of Scotland Yard!)
-
Thank you for this one Len.
Let's all enjoy this book folks.
Geo
-
Next in my Feature Comics series: #81! c2c!
-
More Quality, thanks Len!
:)
-
Len, your last Fight has a broken download link.
-
Thanks for all the great stuff, Lenny! ("Tell me again how's it's gonna be, George...")
-
Thanks to Len we now have Fight Comics 068 c2c.
Thanks again.
Geo
-
tell me about the rabbits, George, about the rabbits!
A double-Feature for back-to-school day: a new c2c #105, and paper Dollguy & RustyRyan added to darkmark's fichescan of #93.
And a Labo(u)r Day special: Fearless Flint from Famous Funnies 97! (also Invisible Scarlet O'Neil)
-
Thanks again!
-
Len's been busy with TWO new Quality scans.
Thanks Len! :)
-
Ohhh, a new Frankenstein scan!
Very nice, thanks to BHC and Len for this.

A late update: finally finished off M.E.'s Best O' the West with #9. Now if I could only get the Ghost Rider origin story (Tim Holt 11 or the IW reprint) and an original Redmask 47, not to mention the rest of the GR issues.
And, my penultimate Air Fighters fiche-replacement scan: #3 with the origin of The Heap!
Still to come: #7. I doubt I'll ever find a cheap-enough copy of #2 (which has the first appearances of Airboy, Black Angel, Iron Ace, etc).
-
Great work Len, thanks very much for these!
:)
-
Nice batch from bhcomics tonight: Centaur's Keen Det Funnies 8 (first issue!) & 11;
paper Whizzzes 30 & 39 (to replace fiches); and paper Crackajack 33 (ditto).
Speaking of which... if we can upload CJax as long as any Tarzan stuff is removed, why :-/ can't we upload The Funnies as long as the John Carter pages are removed????
-
Thanks for all the stuff, Len!
-
A new Centaur is always a great day in my book, thanks Len!
:)
-
Speaking of which... if we can upload CJax as long as any Tarzan stuff is removed, why :-/ can't we upload The Funnies as long as the John Carter pages are removed????
Odd. I thought that was already the policy, Len. I forget (and am feeling too lazy to check...), but doesn't it also carry reprints of comic strips in early issues? That could be the difference, if there is one.
-
I trust JohnC and Aussie to make such calls Len.
-
Hundreds of comics of the site contain strip reprints, even all the Feature Comics. What I don't get is why are all Tarzan-free CJax allowed, but for The Funnies you say "The presence of ERB's John Carter on Mars means we can't share any beyond the first 29 issues." Just drop the JCM pages.
-
Fix-it night: I was browsing thru the Jumbos and found #17 needed help (an invalid .cbr file, so no Preview, and also no cover-thumb). So, I 'fixed' it by re-upping with the name changed to .cbz, and I changed the names of a few scans so that the fc appears first and the fc 'variations' follow. It works now, so you can dump the old one.
-
Thanks very much for the fix Len!
We'll have to decide what to do with the Funnies issues. There might well be other strips involved beyond the ERB material.
-Yoc
-
I've had a batch of 5 partial Lone Rider scans for a few years and decided it was time to share what I have; maybe someday they'll be completed. I believe the scans include all the LR stories
-
You can always update down the road if you find the time Len.
Thanks for the sharing!
-
Lots more gunplay last night & tonight: two Fox #1s (also first upload of each title): Western Killers 60 (numbering from Blue Beetle), and Western True Crime 15 (from Sunny).
And 4 Avon's Wild Bill Hickoks: 2, 4, 14, 23.
And a pair of Aces: Western Adventures 1 & 4, with Sheriff Sal!
All are from bhcomics, so no ads and maybe missing text stories.
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Thanks Len and bhc!
:)
-
Tonight it's the last in my series of Air Fighters fiche-replacements: #7. It was coverless, so the coverscans are from the usual places. Sadly :'( , the second page (airboy pg#3-4) was ripped out, so those are borrowed fichescans.
-
Thanks Len, an update is always accepted.
Geo
-
Thanks Len, this is exactly why having fiche scans can pay-off.
Confirm mystery books (if only Punch had fiche scans) and fill in missing pages when they show up.
-
It might be worth noting that the uploaded file of Airfighters #7 has a few pages upside down. It could stand a bit of editing...
I thought I should mention it here, rather than as a comment on the scan's page itself.
-
This is the best place to mention it! Comments on the scan pages are seen (usuallly) only by downloaders.
Comic is fixed!
-
For the first week of autumnmnmn: Tim Holt #1! . Pretty dull. I'd rather find the remaining issues with Ghost Rider stories,
-
Thanks Len!
-
4 more goodies tonight:
Another #1: Lone Rider!; also #25
Plastic Man #36! (2 more to go; I should be getting #31 soon, so that leaves only #40!)
Jungle #62 (I know it's on the jvj list, but it looks like Jungle is being left to the very last, so I picked up a cheap copy)
-
Wonderful news on the Plastic Man Len.
I love how close we are getting to several complete runs these days.
:)
-
"Wonderful news on the Plastic Man Len.
I love how close we are getting to several complete runs these days."
I didn't have a working PC for a couple of months and haven't been able to keep up with all the new additions for around 75 days so I didn't realize how close the Museum was to obtain a complete run of Plastic Man. I just read an issue that I hadn't seen since I bought it from a train station whirly rack back when I was in first grade and read and re-read during the first train trip I can remember taking, and there are other unread issue still waiting. I appreciate Len and all the others who have made such abundence possible. I'm happier than a clam.
-
I love stories like that one Jon.
It really brings the books alive when you can relate childhood memories with them.
I fondly recall issues of Scrooge McDuck on summer vacation car trips back in the 70s.
-
Thanks for Fight Comics #21! Page 44 seems to be upside-down.
-
Just the one page? I'll flip all the rest over & re-upload! ;)
And... as promised, here's Plas 31! Only #40 to go!
-
Thanks Len!
Always Love to see new Quality, especial this title. As you say, we're soooo close now.
:)
-
Completed a run!
No... not Plas... it's ME's Trail Colt #1!... finishes a 2-issue run.
It's un-numbered and was probably intended to be Manhunt #12. It's a direct continuation from Manhunt 11 (same contents). But, they later published another issue, numbered #2, so the first one is always considered to be #1.
A few years later they resurrected Manhunt with 2 reprint issues (numbered 13-4), and finished with Red Fox #15. There were also 3 issues of Undercover Girl with reprints from Manhunt & Trail Colt, and some original stories (probably; not all the Manhunts are indexed).
-
Last night... the one FH title I've been after for a long time: the last un-upped early Jungle: #8!.
Tonight: the one-and-only M.E.'s Red Fox #15 (see notes above for Trail Colt 1).
It should have been Manhunt #15, but they changed the cover. They didn't even move the Red Fox story to the front of the comic. One difference from earlier Manhunt issues: in place of a Trail Colt story is a Korean War story, probably a reprint like the rest of this issue & MH 13-4.
-
Always love ME scans. Thanks, Len.
-
A corrected upload tonight: a fixed Tim Holt 37; it was an invalid .cbr; it's now a valid .cbz!
Pls dump the old one.
-
thanks for the fix Len.
-
Last night: a new M.E.: Manhunt #7, with Space Ace and Undercover Girl!
(the title's description on the publisher's page needs another correction. Line 3 now says:
#7-9: Trail Colt begins #7. #8-Space Ace ends.
It should read: #7-9: Space Ace ends #7. #8-Trail Colt begins.)
Tonight: the first of several Jumbos: #129
and, a 'fixed' version of my #130 upload (pls remove the old one; it doesn't appear in my CP). This one turned out to be an invalid .cbz; changing to .cbr fixed it.
-
Thanks for the Manhunt and the Jumbo, Len!
-
Back to Fawcett: another fiche-replacement: Master #39, but my copy is missing the cover & 3½ wraps, so you get fc+bc from the old HAG, 16 darkmark fiches, and 50 scans from me!
-
Always nice to have more paper scans to replace fiche. Thanks Len. :)
-
Yep, thanks Len!
-
Another Amazing issue of Master Comics Thanks
-
For me, the best story in that Master Comics issue had to be the Minute Man tale. Great artwork and a fun read. But Minute Man is usually always pretty enjoyable. :)
-
And so, on the night of the 'harvest' full moon: back to Jumbos: #81 a day or two ago, #77 tonight, and #75 in a day or two.
-
Thanks Len, I love that SkyGirl feature!

Thanks Len, I love that Sky Girl feature!
That's also one of my guilty pleasures.

Hi Gang,
I was talking with Fan777 and the subject of total scans came up.
DCM currently lists the site at Total Comics: 11131 (minus a dozen or two that are different versions of the same book). It's a very satisfying number to see as one of the staff.
freddyfly here joined GAC way back on March 02, 2008 the day after GAC's massive database failure that we only today are finally starting to clear up the last of the wreckage from it!
Len has uploaded since that week a grand total of by my count 1041 scans that he either scanned himself , contributed from BHComics or found on the web and filled a hole in our collection. The vast majority though are his own scans! That equals nearly 1 scan uploaded every day since he joined!
Amazing work Len and from all of us on staff and the members of the site I'd like to thank-you for all you've given to the site and hobby! Bravo! :D
-
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh! You're going to get me teared up. But, much thanks for the commentary!
Actually, I began using gac back in '06 when there wasn't much there. I couldn't upload much since my upload speed was slower than now, and my ISP's free up/download limit was much lower. I lost credits for my few earliest uploads in the Great Crash of '08, but it was probably no more than a dozen (mostly Barkers).
When my ISP improved their service 2 or 3 years ago, I began uploading regularly, and I gradually added all my old scans (some going back to '02 whan I got a new system & scanner). I also began scanning comics for gac/dcm and not just for me. I always considered it my contribution in exchange for the huge mass of stuff provided by all the other scanners. So, thanks to all of you!
-
Back to business!
You may have seen my mystery Chesler upload. A couple of comments have been added, but I had exhausted all sources of info (that I know about) before uploading. DCM uploads, gcdb, HAG, Keltner, Bails, google searches... all they did was eliminate all possibilties! My theory is that it's a reprint comic like the 1946 Atomic (which, by the way, Keltner doesn't even have), and so not really a Chesler imprint.
By the way, more Skygirl coming this week!
-
Bravo, Len! It doesn't seem to fit any comic we have data on....
-
Is it possibly Punch Comics #20, from superior? The page count on the superior run jumps all over the place, and the info at the GCD
http://www.comics.org/issue/549477/
feels like a skeleton created by somebody who hasn't actually seen the issue. The stories actually listed match the first 25 pages of the book you have, other than reversing Rocketman and Master Key.
At least, that's the closest match I could find.
-
Sorry... Keltner wipes that one out... he lists it as a 36-page issue with 3 of my issue's stories missing.
#21-3 are no good either; they have a Young Americans story.
(do the Superiors have Canadian ads?)
(is Keltner slways right?)
so many questions... so little time...
I'm going to try out what may be a screwy theory... maybe there are 2 different versions of some issues: a 32-pager & a 48-pager. That would make #15 & maybe #20 possibilities. There's one precedent for this that I know of: Mighty Mouse around #20-25 were published in 2 such versions.
*****************************************
Correction to my Skygirl promise above: I do have 4 more Jumbos to do, but they're right after Skygirl was dropped :'( Sorry!
-
No more Sky Girl?!?!???
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
*sob*
-
To me, the key to this may be Jungletown Showboat. As far as I know, there are only two 5 page apeparances of that feature, Dynamic Comics #14 and 15. Dyanmic #15 is different, so this isn't a reprint of that. We don't have a complete copy of #14, so that can't be checked. If this turns out to be a reprint of the story in #14, then this means it is probably some reprint book. If not, it's a new book that we know nothing about.
Another clue to investigate is Crime on the Run. Keltner is very specific at differenciating the title variations of that series, and in Punch #20, it was MANHUNTERS - Crime on the Run. There is no mention of Manhunters on the title page. "Crime on the Run" appeared in Dynamic Comics #23, Snap Comics #9, and Punch #11, 17, 19, and 20, but none of those can be checked to see if this is a reprint.
All of the other feature page counts match Punch #15, so it could be a 48 page version of that. Another possibility is it was meant to be the final issue of Punch, but was never distributed, and wound up hitting the stands in some other cover. We've seen this with Rural Home titles.
-Eric
-
That was a perfect summary. I was going to comment on those features after seeing the latest round of comments. I was soooooooooo sure it was Punch 15 until I saw that Keltner had it listed as 32 pages (and I asked an eBay seller who confirmed his copy was 32 pgs). Aside from the remote possibilty of a 48-pg version, I vote for some sort of reprint.
-
Aha, that makes sense. I don't trust Keltner or the GCD 100%; I know I had trouble ID'ing an issue of Jumbo that was using the Keltner info on the GCD, in fact. But checking with an eBay seller was a good idea. (Maybe there's a dealer on eBay who would answer if their copy of #20 is 36 or 52 pages.)
-
Happy NOvember!
Tonight, the last of my current batch of Jumbos: 133(torn bc; none at HAG) & 137(no cf), to go along with my earlier upload of 131-2.
Also, a complete #35 is done for The Factory; I'll add it to dcm later today. I'm also planning upgrades of a few of my oldest incomplete Jumbo uploads.
-
Looking forward to seeing that Jumbo 35, Len. Lightning is my favorite hero character from Fiction House.
- KB

Thanks very much for the Jumbos Len!
:)
-
More for Jumbo fans (fans of Jumbo Comics, that is):
a c2c paper #42 to replace the current part-paper part-fiche partial scan.
I need your help to remove the old one: it doesn't appear in my CP (probably because dm added the fichepages & re-upped it)
-
Thanks Len! I'll remove the old one now.
:)
-
And tonight a better, but still not c2c, Jumbo 37.
The scan is from the same comic as before (coverless & missing the ow), but with the other 11 previously-missing pages + a HAG bc added. (Also the scans are larger).
And, again I'll need your help to remove the old one. Thx!
-
Will do Len, and thanks for the fills, we appreciate it.
:)
-
Nice to see parts (Phantasmos) of the later The Funnies on the site. I've added #59's Phantasmo, but the title doesn't appear on the upload page so I added it to the general Dell area.
-
Thanks for the upload Len. And I moved it into the proper category now.
Geo
-
A Western triple-feature tonight (including 3 gun-slingin' cowgals):
Standard's Broncho Bill 13 (coverless, with small cover from gcdb);
Ace's Western Adventures 5 - c2c;
and Trojan's Western Crime Busters 2 - c2c!
Back to Funnies, The for a moment: why doesn't the title appear in the Dell category drop-down box when I try to upload a scan?
-

Back to Funnies, The for a moment: why doesn't the title appear in the Dell category drop-down box when I try to upload a scan?
For those hoping to learn stuff:
Western Adventures #5:
Cover & first - Max Elkan
Sheriff Sal / Cowboy & Schoolmarm - King Ward (signed KW)
Boomerang Justice - Bill Walsh
Western Crime Busters #2:
Cover is probably W.T. Johnson, but who really knows what HE looks like?
"Bill Zeller" is most likely early Bob McCarty (whose earliest KNOWN work is 1951).
"R. Hayden" is Rex Maxon
"Fred Yates" is H.W. Kiemle
"Don Tallant" is most likely editor Adolphe Barreaux.
Hope that helps.
ps. Read the latest issue of Illustration Magazine for some great comic book info on Barreaux and Donenfeld!
Peace, Jim (|:{> (back in the U.S.A.)
-
Thanks Jim and welcome back.
:)
-
You're welcome, Yoc,
Glad to be back and nice to see some Trojan material. They had a VERY unique line up of artists in this title. Does anyone know for certain the relationship between Trojan and Youthful? Curious minds want to know.
(|:{>
-
Jim,
Thanks for the art IDs. One of the things I like best about sites like DCM and GAC is I'm finally getting to see all these comics I've heard about for years (decades) and study so many artists I've never seen (or only seen their later work in the case of those who made it into the Silver Age).
BTW, wasn't Trojan related to DC via Harry Donenfield in some fashion?

Tis why I suggested you read Illustration Magazine, Joe...
And, IF Trojan, then probably Youthful, and then what... And how? There is precious little in the O.S. of each company to imply any connections.

It's probably sitting over in my pull list at my LCS which I haven't been able to get over to for the last coupla' weeks or so.
Really looking forward to snagging it now.
BTW, Henry Andrews started up a new Google Group- (Comics Publishing, Distribution, Circulation, Etc...)- very recently and there is a lot of interesting discussion going on there about a number of the early smaller publishers, distributors, printers, etc... by a some very knowledgeable folks.

I've seen references to Henry's list, Joe,
but I'm simply unable to tackle ANOTHER project right now. Henry lives just 45 minutes from me so we'll get together (right, Henry?) soon and talk about it (and about Timely indicias) and other fascinating (to some) topics.
One of the NEW chores is to put together a comics list of Szokoli's work.
Peace, Jim (|:{>
-
I hope Henry tape records your conversations and shares the data someday Jim.
Perhaps he is up for sharing your index cards on the GCD?
-
He will do neither, Yoc,
the first because we both would hate it and the second because he probably has much more interesting and personal things that he wants to do. We do have a good time (well, at least I do) when we get together, so I'm looking forward to the next time. I'll drop him an invite when I've posted this.
Peace, Jim (|:{>

An assorted quartet of uploads for US-Thanksgiving week:
a foxy pair: Wonderworld #25 (from a coverless so no ifc/ibc); and a better, more-complete Weird #11 (I removed my old upload), missing the centerfold ad (probably good old Kooba Cola);
a quality issue: Doll Man 32 c2c, to replace the old fiche;
and a saintly comic from Avon: Saint, The #2!
Enjoy!
-
Wow, now That is a great holiday gift for everyone!
Thanks very much Len. :)
-
Great stuff, Len! Keep 'em coming!
-
So many great comics in one uploads!!!!.. Thanks.
-
Air Triplets!
Tonight: more-complete versions of 3 of the remaining 4 Airboyscans that had only Airboy & Heap stories: Vol 5 #s 1, 5 & 6. All now are missing only the ads & text pages. Only v8#7 to go!
And I need help!... to remove the old partial scans which don't appear in my CP list. And, while you're there, could you also dump my old partial v5#7, v6#2 and v9#1? All now have better versions, but again they aren't in my CP list. Thx!
-
Thanks a Heap!
-
Thanks Len, older partials now removed as well.
:)
-
Filling in the gaps:
tonight (thanks to bhcomics) it's a c2c Jumbo 78 (not on the jvj list), which makes it a solid run from 70 to 139;
and an almost-c2c Airboy v8#7, to replace the Airboy/Heap-only scan; and, one more time, I need your help to dump the old scan. This is the last (I think) scan that doesn't at least have all the main stories in paper or fiche. So.... Mission Accomplished! Let's attack another title!
-
Thank you Len, much appreciated.
-
Thanks Len, partial now removed. :)
-
Bravo for both!
-
Jungle 129 fixed! I took bhc's scans (which were larger & sharper than mine) and added my fc + fills! I dumped the 2 old ones; now I have to tell bhc that he has the wrong comic.
-
Thanks Len.
Carl also told me that we had an incorrect Jungle 134 from DM.
It's actually 139 if the GCD entry is correct. I've changed the cover and re-uploaded it.
Nice of Carl to catch these errors of ours. Thanks Carl!
-
builderboy has 139 so he can check it (and maybe do the 2 missing Cami pages???)
2 replacement/upgrades: Jungle 41 (to quote yoc: "could use a rescan if someone were willing"). I found a cheap one, so I was willing! But, it was cheap because of no cf, so those 4 pages are the old small scans.
And a c2c Feature 63, with Spider woman! So, you can dump the old 100-meg fiche, and the small Jungle 41.
___________________________________________________________________________
And a Fawcett Five, Featuring Flying Freddy Freeman:
Cap Jr 50: c2c thx to DM's fiche
Cap Jr 85, with a cmj page torn out :'( (and no ads) but no fiche to replace them.
Master 61: more sad stuff: :'( missing the cf: the last page of Nyoka and the start of Bulletman, and again no fiche available. All you get is the rest of the 4 main stories.
Master 70: both my copy & DM's have no cf! But, ^-^ only the text story and 2 ad-or-toon pages are missing.
Master 105: c2c thx to DM's fiche
____________________________________________
So, you can dump the old Junior 50 and Masters 70 & 105;
and also DM's Master 30(replaced by dsdaboss' paper/fiche combo); 34(replaced by rangerhouse's paper), 36 & 83 (both replaced by my paper/fiche combo), and my 90(replaced by yoc's paper/fiche combo).
There's lots of other Master double-uploads, but all are partial or full 'diff versions'. I'm going to tackle combo-ing the 2 #82s (partial-paper + DM fiche)
-
Thanks for all the work.

Nice work, Len. I've only looked over the issue of Feature Comics and read "The Spider Widow and the Raven" story from that issue, so far (nice story, by the way) but I'll be checking out the Fawcett books probably before the day is out. We've got poor weather today, and I'll have to go out and shovel snow agaiin soon but you (and some other scaners) have brought some sunshine into the day.
Thanks.
-
Thanks Len!
I've cleaned up the Master section a little.
If someone would like to MERGE the paper and fiche versions of Master 82 into a c2c version I could fix them as well.
:)
-
I've got a merged Master Comics #82 I can upload. Doing that now. It's from New Year's day of this year.
-
Thanks Cooper!
-
Tonight: two Master fiche replacements: #s 10 & 76, each with a fiche or two from darkmark's uploads.
10's fc is (I think) from an eBay listing; HAG doesn't have the issue
-
Thanks Len, give me a shout if you need any covers. Sometimes I've had some luck outside of Heritage.
-
Both perfect 10's in my book. Thanks for posting these latest issues of Master Comics, Len. :)
-
Tonight the first of 3 nue Blue Bolts: v5 #2!
A query: am I a silent partner in the Team Supreme? I noticed the new Team Supreme c2c Master 61 upload includes my earlier partial-comic upload (which can now be dumped)
Great to see the Fox Eagle 3 !!!!
-
Thanks Len. I believe that's DM's generic term for merged books. Yep, great seeing Eagle 3!
-
Eagle books are almost done. Just #1 and the first 8 pages of #4 to go! >:D
-
Couple of gun-slingin' cowgirls tonight: Sheriff Sal and Calamity Kate! (and an evil cowgirl, Queen Cobra!)
Yes, it's another of Ace's Western Adventures: #6, and Orbit's Wild Bill Pecos - the Westerner: #28 (with #30 on the way tomorrow)
-
Thanks Len!
-
Yesterday it was another issue of Saint, The: #7, and today it's a c2c Jungle 147 to replace the earlier upload that turned out to be an issue of Kaänga.
-
Thanks Len.

Thanks for the correction Len

First, a Christmas Eve ghost of scans past: M.E.'s Ghost Rider #3. This is one of my oldest nearly-full comic scans, from early 2006, months before gac first appeared. I didn't make the connection that I had a scan that was missing from dcm until fan777 emailed me about the issue.
The scans are nice, but not as large as I do them now. I no longer have the comic.
And, a Christmas morning gift to scan-fans one and all: Champion Comics #2 -- a first issue (Dec 1939), since there was no #1 (see the gcdb for some theories).
Although listed under Harvey Comics, it didn't actually become a Harvey until issue 17. The first 10 were a Worth (or Worth-Carnahan) Publication (who also did Cyclone [currently under Holyoke] & O.K. Comics); the next 5 were Champ Publishing Co.; then Harvey took over under the name Family Comics inc. See also http://mysterymen.tripod.com/greats/harvey.htm for more history.
Other Harvey publishing confusion:
All Speeds at dcm are under Harvey although Harvey's first issue was #14; (Brookwood was the early publisher). Green Hornet, however is split: 1-6 (Helnit Publishing) are under Holyoke, and the rest under Harvey.
From what I've read, Worth & Brookwood could be said to have been absorbed by the later Holyoke, which means the early Champ/ions & Speeds should, like GH 1-6, be listed there.
-
Thanks Len, wonderful to see these.
---
I'm not a fan of splintering the collection among different publishers even if technically it's true some titles have had more than one over their history. Yes, some are split like Green Hornet and some are not. There is more than one admin and we don't always agree on this topic. I feel having them all under the publisher most associated with the book makes the site easier to use which is our goal, even if it's technically incorrect. I will try to make note in the description though so users are aware more than one publisher did a title and leave it at that. I'm removing the GH folder in the Holyoke section. Personally I keep all my Blue Beetle issues in one folder as well but in that case I'll leave it split as-is.
-
Attaway, Len! Good to see the Champ comics. Some of the art on this one is quite good.
-
I really enjoyed the two new acquired issues of Champion Comics.
-
Western Thrillers 004 (c2c)
Thanks Len
Geo
-
Sorry, I haven't been keeping up with regular updates here. Earlier, I upped the 2nd-last Novelty BluBolt: v10 #1 (#100), and c2c'd the final one: v10 #2.
Tonight, for 2012 (aka MMXII) (happy New Year to all!): it's the last missing Fiction House #12: Sheena, Queen o' the Jungle!
Really great to see the first 2 Four Favs! and, of course, the 2 new early FH's: Jumbo 32 & Jungle 47!!
-
Yes all these great books are appreciated. Amazing the runs we have here.
-
BRAVO!!
-
Tonight, a half-fiche-replacement: Feature Comics 118! It includes half of DM's fiche pages.
So, pls remove the old fiche. You can also dump the #116 fiche (replaced by my paper), and my 2-story #94 (replaced by DM's combo).
-
Thanks Len!
Files updated.
-
Tonight: nedor's Thrilling 74... final Princess Pantha and no Frazetta :'( (his last was #73).
and a much-improved Four Favorites 26 (help needed to remove my old partial-scan upload).
Also, I'm going to re-up my Jumbo 25 that was replaced by a c2c version that incuded a reduced version of my upload. I don't know if dsdaboss compressed or shrank my scans, but the file size was cut in half.
I'll include the added pages from dsdaboss's up.
..................................................................
Time passes....
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh! I've now upped it and I see it's mis-named: I upped it as a .cbz file but it should be a .cbr
Can you guys just change the file name? THX!
-
Thanks for adding the final Princess Panthra story, Len. From the standpoint of posterity, that's a key issue.
-
Len, I'll take care of it this afternoon. Thanks for pointing that out.
Geo
-
Geo,
I'm taking care of Len's JUMBO25 problem. Luckily I can now do this without needing to reupload the entire file.
Thanks very much for doing these Len!
-
Hi, gang...
I guess you saw my latest: Fawcett Movie Comic 020 (Ivanhoe; 30pgs; no ow; 4 damaged page-sides);
and The Westerner 032 (45 of 52pgs, and completes the Calamity Kate run).
I just upped a replacement for dm's replacement of my original Rulah 21. He added the ifc (Fox's first story page) to my scans, and I've now added the bc and a larger fc thx to the old HAG. You can remove his version; I've dumped my old one.
Great to see another Heroic!
-
Thanks Len, I'll take care of it.
-
Looks like somebody beat you to it on my Jumbo 25 filename error by re-uploading.
Tonight I think I have things straight with upgrades to two 3-year-old scans:
Exciting 23 (now both fc&bc, and all pages instead of just 3 stories);
and Cat-Man 25, increased from 30 to fc+46 pages; only 2 text pages missing, and no bc at HAG. I was able to remove my old ups.
-
Very nice!
Thanks Len.
:)
-
Can't be beat! Thanks, Len.
-
A special gift for man-of-mystery yoc tonight: Fearless Flint x 2! (from FamousFunnies 100 & 104). (Also Connie, but no Inv Scarlet O'neill: both issues are missing the cf with part of the ISO story)
-
HOLY CATS!!
Wow, oh wow, thanks so much Len!
I'm one happy monkey here.
:D
-
Only 2 new pages tonight: the text story from Jungle 77. I noticed that my coverless (+HAG fc) upload has been replaced with an upgrade that adds the rest of the cover (borrowed from other comics), so I've upgraded the upgrade with a c2c version. (I can't do it for the other 2 replaced jg uploads... they weren't my original scans).
By the way... is that really a borrowed ifc with the indicia altered to fit the Jg 77?
-
Thanks very much Len!
-
Mystery Jungle 77 question: the new upload says it now has a 'borrowed' ifc, but the indicia say Jungle 77. Is it an edited page from another comic?
A new Jumbo pair tonight: first, an upgraded upgrade of Jumbo 95. The recent re-up is my old upload with new scans of a full back cover. Looking at it now, I decided it badly needed improvement, so it's now a new larger c2c scan (I have a 2nd copy with a full bc).
And... a c2c paper Jumbo 15! (note to yoc: sorry, I forgot to add this earlier).
-
Mystery Jungle 77 answer: Clearly looks altered to me. Looks like the indicia came from the Jungle Comics #78 scan.
-
Thank you Len for those two.
Geo
-
I double-checked my Jungle 77 and, altered or not, the ifc scan matches perfectly. I REALLY have problems with people doing this. Historical integrity is FAR more important that the c2c-ness of any scan here. IMHO. There MAY be some slight difference that we don't detect now that will turn out to be important later on. Best, if you MUST do this, to label the scan as faked/non-genuine somehow.
All of us collectors are anal-retentive to a greater or lesser degree, but let's not make up historical artifacts just to have the "skeleton" complete.
Peace, Jim (|:{>
-
Same here, Jim. I'm glad that people are trying to figure out where pages seem to match, but I see it ending with someone finding a difference between the issues and claiming different print runs or something similar.
-
I've made a suggestion to Carl and Prime about the ifc recreations. Stay tuned.
-
I agree with jvj & John C. I don't even like copying ads from other issues (how can you really be sure they're the right pages until you see the comic?), but fudging the indicia goes beyond that. At the very least, anything from a different issue must be ID'd.
On the positive side: this a.m. I have a c2c paper Fight #2 to replace the old fiche.
-
Fantastic addition to the library, Len. Big thank you for that
-
Yep, great addition for sure!
-
One new upload tonight: GI Combat #16, from a coverless copy. None at the old HAG, so I added a small gcdb fc.
On the Fiction House front:
Yet another Jumbo 25 upload (replaces the current one): the only improvement is a 2nd bc (nice Planet ad) from HAG. The original one is badly damaged along the spine-side, but the new one has damage in the top-left corner and its color is off-center, so I've left both in the scan.
I also wanted to fix the file & folder names (it still said the issue was missing pages), restore the original credits, clean up the description, & remove comments.
And, Fight #27 (on the way shortly)... more Señorita Rio! Another coverless, with fc+bc from HAG; maybe we can the ifc/ibc from the jvj copy. (and the other missing issues, I hope, I hope)
-
One new upload tonight: GI Combat #16, from a coverless copy. None at the old HAG, so I added a small gcdb fc.
Thanks for GI Combat. My pal the G.I. Wombat has been looking for this issue for a while. As a side note, he has the following currently unscanned issues in his queue: 2,7,8. I believe he also has a complete copy of issue 10 that he plans to scan soon.
I did find a Heritage front cover for this issue, which I have uploaded as a stand-alone file. I don't know if the admins have a way to merge it into your scans; if not, perhaps someone can re-upload a combined archive.
-
Hi Snard,
Nope, we can't merge files. Someone will have to do it for us. Thanks for uploading it.
-
Done! (although I didn't use snard's version, but many thx to him for finding it!) (I dumped my first up)
I was wondering why I didn't find it myself, so I checked it out and HAG had it under silver age! (I usually limit my searches to golden age)
ml's new, X-large Jungle 139 needs a small tweak (another capital-letter bug): scan51(the ibc)'s name is the only one capitalized, so it comes first (in strict ascii order) and appears in place of the cover thumb.
Looking forward to the other gic's!
-
Thanks Len, 139 was fixed by ML.
-
It's upgraded upgrade (or refixed fix) time again. I noticed 7 of my old Lone Riders were corrected (re-numbered scans so that Preview showed them in the correct order), so I took the opportunity to upgrade them. (By the way, if someone could let me know about problems with my ups, I'll be happy to fix them & do upgrades at the same time).
Tonight it's #s 6, 7 & 9, with better fc's & added bc's (thx to hag, of course).
Later, I'll do the other 4 (I'm hoping to also add more pages, thx to the original scanner).
Good stuff on the way tonight: Rulah 25! (c2c, not a reprint!) (as soon as I do the editing)
-
Hi Len, thanks very much for your upgrades. I consider yours upgrades as they've added more pages and superior scans unlike the fixes which are the same scans only the file names are slightly tweaked to work with the Preview feature.
I just sent Movielover a list of several more of your scans that need the same tweaks. I'll email you off list.
And Rulah 25 - wow, very nice!
-Yoc
-
Fixes done so far:
Planet 41 & Airboy v4n10 now .cbr
I need your help to remove old ones; they aren't in my CP
-
No problem Len, I'll remove old ones as your fixes turn up.
-
Now done (with proper notations, I hope):
1 simply deleted: the 'problem' Jungle 35 was upgraded by yoc in mid-Dec, but my original version wasn't removed.
6 upgraded & fixed: All-New 13, Science 2 & 8, Jungle 34 & 44(now c2c!), Women Outlaws 1.
and 5 fixed: Cat-Man 6 & 13, Startling 33(only needed one file name-change), National 40(4 cover-scans re-named), and Super-Mystery(this one was actually ok... the only problem was I mis-named a scan).
All old ones removed!
By the way, I'm re-naming .zips to .cbz's which I hope will make some people happy (and, I hope, not make anybody unhappy)
-
Thanks Len!
The upgrades are especially appreciated.
:)
-
2 hours after I upgrade Women Outlaws 1, somebody ups a bigger & better(now c2c) scan, so you might as well dump mine(which wasn't my scan anyway).
I've done the airboy v7n8 minor fix. Turns out it wan't c2c! Scan-pg48 in dm's orignal up is missing.
All stories match the gcdb info, so it's probably an end-of-issue ad page.
-
2 hours after I upgrade Women Outlaws 1, somebody ups a bigger & better(now c2c) scan....
I wouldn't have noticed I had the c2c scan if it weren't for your upgrade, so many many thanks for the upgrades you have been providing and of course the numerous scans.
-
Thanks to both of you for making the site that much better guys.
:)
-
Not sure if I mentioned this somewhere else:
Airboy v8n4 has 2 ups: the fiche-c2c one is credited to me but wasn't my up, but it can be dumped because:
the other up is c2c even tho' it says it's only 47pg (in both the title and desc).
-
Ok Len, it's now removed. Thanks.
-
Now up from Len and myself -
Feature_Comics_#042 [Mar'41][paper+2fiche]-68pg-c2c-freddyfly+Yoc
Enjoy!
-Yoc
-
Tonight: Avon's Jesse James 15 c2c!, and Rangers 37 re-upped with the missing ad&text pages, but no upgrade to the existing very old scans. That must have been one of my earliest (3½-year-old) contributions! I've dumped the old one.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Technical question: can my scans that were upped by someone else (named yoc) be added to my CP without re-upping?
-
Nope, sorry Len.
:(
-
Review of this week's ups:
thanx to Carl, a nice addition of all the missing pages to Jumbo 130; and a minor upgrade to Jungle 122 (2nd fc + added bc).
Marvel Family #8 (brittle with lots of chipped edges) to replace the old fiche; and a different version (mostly) of Master 38 (not something I would normally do, but I thought I was buying an incomplete #37 to replace a fiche but it turned out to be 38, and I had scanned it before realizing the mistake).
^-^ but, the highlight of the week: Sheena #9! (c2c)
-
Thanks Len, love the Sheena!
-
Bravo definitely!
-
For Pair-of-Presidents' Day: a pair of Pecoses:
The Westerner - Wild Bill Pecos #s 18 & 25 (no ad or text pgs)
(to my fellow Canadians: happy Family Day!)
-
I saw those and submitted data to GCD. Both issues have Bernie Krigstein stories!
(|:{>
-
These Orbit books are always interesting to look through, Hope to see more popping up in the future.
Thanks
Joe
-
Anyone know where I can get a copy of Patches #7? It's the only Orbit I'm missing!
Oh, please...
Peace, Jim (|:{>
-
Sorry Jim I couldn't find a copy, only could find a cover shot of it.

3 minor upgrades tonight:
Jumbo 49 had a small fc (which wasn't properly named, so it didn't appear in the cover-thumb spot).
Now, it's a nice HAG fc and is re-named. BUT :'( , I noticed one page is missing: #35 (or Tom Dick & Harry pg 3). If I can get it, I'll re-up.
and (in process at the moment): Cap Marv Jr 3 & 4 (both part-fiche). Both now have a paper pg1 (contents) and 3 now also has a paper bc (also 4's scans have been re-named). (I need your help to dump the old versions).
All now with screenshots of course!
-
Thanks Len!
-
3 more FH fixes tonight, all thx to fan777-Carl's ad&text fills:
Fight 72; Jumbos 100 & 121 all now c2c!
I need your help to remove J121 only. Thx!
-
Thanks Len, and I moved the Jumbo Comics 121.
Geo
-
2 more replacements this a.m.:
Dollman 42 (c2c paper) to replace on old fiche;
and a new bhcomics Blu Beetle 21 to replace the old inc up. I added the missing pages from the new ml/rh up (the scan-files also needed some renaming). I dumped the old up.
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
Thanks Len!
DM42 fiche now gone.
-
Jumbo 34 done yesterday; today it's Fight 22 with :'( 4 damaged pages(leaves).
Also, due to popular demand from hordes of ad fans, a c2c'd Redmask 51. I dumped my old up, but there's also a dm version with reprinted text pages added to my old 28-pg scan.
Coming soon: Jumbo 17 (c2c paper!), and very soon: Jumbo 140!
-
Sounds great Len, looking forward to them!
-
Meanwhile, back at the corral...
Tonight: A Lone Rider upgrade quintet!
#s 4,8,13,19 &26 are now more complete, with the non Lone Rider stories added, and a bc if available (and maybe a better fc).
And, Swift Arrow 5, now with all stories.
I need your help to remove the 5 old LR scans: all were 'fixed' by others, so none are in my CP.
Thx!
-
Wonderful! Thanks Len.
I'll take care of it.
:)
-
More upgrade ups:
Super-Mystery v6n1 (and, I hope, more eventually);
Weird Mysteries 8, + two new issues: 4 & 7
Also, very near: several Airboy improvements, and somewhat farther away: more Lone Riders.
All thx to bhcomics!
-
Thanks Len!
Could you please include '-upgrade' in the new names when you upload them to alert members to your changes.
-
Will do! (although I do like just adding 'now'...)
I've upped my 1st two Airboy upgrades: v3n11, v8n8... from paper Airboy/Heap only to all-paper except a few text/ad pgs and the non-front covers. I'll add a HAG bc when I can find one, but they don't have a lot of Airboys, and very few bcs.
There's also still one poor fc: v5#9, so I'll keep dm's fiche cover.
Pls remove oldies; THX!
-
Deleted the old ones, thanks Len.
:)
-
Repeat last post! Except this time it's for 4 more Airboys: v4 #2&3, v8 #3&6.
I messed up 3 of the ups, so I had to delete & re-up. (by the way, who's the underscore fan?)
Futnote: v8#3 wasn't c2c... dm's pg49 fiche (a back-pg ad) is missing.
-
And, my first contribution to Jo-Jo: #29 - the last issue (published)
-
Thanks very much Len.
Wow, you've been a busy guy here. And a new Jo-Jo to boot!
:)
-
2 more Airboy upgrades: v4n12, v7n8 (old v7n8 is removed).
Neither was or is c2c: some fiche ad pages were missing from both
v4n12 is a minor upgrade: only 2 new 'paper' scans (plus the usual renaming of the scans from 01, 02, ....). If you look at the title of the original up, it looks like a downgrade, but the old title & description were wrong: it had 8 not 2 fichepgs, and it did have the ibc/bc.
8 more to do, but first I want to finish a Jungle.
Hope you all saw Venus catch up to Jupiter last night!
-
Thanks again for these Len and explaining the mix-up on the old v4 #12.
-
So far tonight: Thrilling 72 (3rd-last Pantha; 2nd-last Frazetta, 1st BuckRanger; from a coverless, so no ifc/ibc), and c2c paper Cap M Jr #24 (replaces 2 old fiches!)
-
And my daily Airboy upgrades: v5n2 & v7n1 (pls remove oldies). Now all-paper except for text & ads.
The old v7n1 turned out not to be (or to not be) c2c: dm's fiche-page 31 (probably an ad) is missing.
-
Great job Len, old ones removed.
-
Next: from Fox: Western Killers 62 (3rd issue).
Since you guys have little to do ::) , any chance some of the titles in the Fox misc section can get their own sections?
(I can make up the title descriptions if it'll help)
-
and from Hahvey: a Hornet-less Green Hornet 20! (with Joe Kubert's Zebra)
-
Thank you for filling in another hole in the Green Hornet category, Len! :)
-
Thanks Len for the GH. Always enjoy early Kubert art.
Geo
-
2 more Airboy upgrades from less-than-half paper to nearly-all paper: v5 #s 3-4.
Pls remove oldies (also v5n2 & v7n1). Thx!
-
Will do, thanks Len!
-
2 more Airboy upgrades: v6 #s 3 & 5. Pls remove oldie versions of these and also v5#2, v7#1 & v8#6; also one from last year: v6#10 that was c2c'd by dm.
-
Done. Thanks for all of these upgrades Len
:)
-
And yet 2 more major Airboy upgrades: v5 #s 8 & 9... now all-paper except ads & text (also I finally found a better v5n9 fc, at eBay).
That's it for now, but I need to get & fix one more mostly-fiche-ish: v6n4.
As usual 'cause these aren't in my CP, pls remove the oldies... And v5n2 pls! Thx!
-
Well done Len, updates happening now.
-
Tonight, it's a super-eight: 8 ups from 8 publishers:
Novelty: Blue Bolt v6 n10
Quality: Dollman 44 (pls remove fiche)
M.E.: Redmask 52 (there's no old 52, just an IW reprint, but pls remove dm's partial combo of #51)
Story: Secret Mysteries 18
Harvey: Green Hornet 30 [an old scan that never got uploaded]
Ajax: Swift Arrow 4 [that finishes the 1954 run]
Four Star: Swift Arrow (1957) 2 (but it's 'Ajax' on the cover)
Misc: Don Fortune 5 (with CC Beck's Delecta of the Planets) (any chance the DonF's can be moved from Unsorted to Small Pubs?)
I don't think I'll be doing this sort of mass upload again!
-
WOW!!
Great job Len. Must have taken you a while to do all that.
We appreciate the work you've put in big time!
DF section now added as well.
-
Hi,
A question: I have a Brenda Starr to upload, one of the 10 Superior issues. For now, it has to go under the misc Superior section, but do you want to have a separate BStarr section, like the (empty) Ajax one?
Or, do you want to have all 12 issues (some day!) under one publisher... either Ajax or Superior?
-
Another headache there.... sigh.
The majority were made by Superior so that's where I'd tend to share them in their own section if we got them all.
-
Brenda Starr done! Hidden in the Canadian / Superior section with no section of its own, while the Ajax Brenda Starr separate section remains empty! :'(
Also upped, 3 c2c westerns: Westerner (Orbit) #41, and Jesse James 20 & 25 (2 from their series of all-reprint issues)
-
Thanks very much Len.
You've got your Brenda Starr Superior section now as well.
-
Time to kick off DCM's second anniversary, with an all-paper Jumbo 17!
What? It's 6:30 am, Tues morning Mar 27? Well, yes, and then again. no.
Maybe dcm has members in Apia, Western Samoa, where it's 12:30 Wed morning WST (West Samoa Time); or maybe in the Chatham Islands, where it's 12:15 am CHADT (Chatham Island Daylight Time); or maybe in Kiritimati, Line Islands, where it's 12:30 am LINT (Line Islands Time)!
So, happy anniversary to all!
-
Thanks for the early present Len.
:)
-
Thanks for those DCM anniversary gifts, Len. :)
-
Now here we are (or, at least, here I am), 24 hours later, and March 28th has circled the globe from West of the international date line to East of it.
So, a foxy gift to scan fans everywhere: Wonderworld #11 c2c!
More to come!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
March 28 is gradually drawing to a close here in Eastern Daylight time.
How about making the DCM anniversary a National hoilday? Better yet, how about a new National: #24, c2c paper! (gotta finish that title!)
_______________________________________
4 hours later.....
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh!
I lost track of what I was doing, and didn't edit most of the pages! I deleted it, and the fix'll have to wait until tomorrow night; sorry!
-
And now (3:30am EDT Thurs), March 28 has retreated to the far West end of North America... Alaska! The headlines should now read: Happy End-of-anniversary!
So, how about ending things with Headline #1... from a coverless, so no ifc/ibc, but HAG had the fc+bc.
-
Headline #1 what a gem thanks ff for this and all the others
-
Wow, this is a lovely way to start the day for me.
Thanks very much Len!
-
National 24 now edited & upped! Happy start of year 3!
-
Thanks Len, some lovely books there.
:)
-
Tonight, an April's Fool fiche-replacement feature: Feature Comics 65 (no foolin')
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Tonight, it's a Factory-fresh Jumbo 20 c2c!
-
Thanks Len - Planet 9, also Factory fresh, is going up shortly.
:)
-
This a.m., it's 2 partials:
All New 6: HAG covers + 3 stories;
Feature 73: 40 new paper scans & HAG covers added to 4 fiche cfs + inside-covers from dm.
-
Thanks as always Len.
:)
-
Tonight, a minor upgrade: 1 story added to my previous Feature 88 (old one is removed!);
and a c2c fiche-replacement: #96 (you can also remove the old fiche of #73)
-
Done. Thanks Len!
-
A very minor upgrade upgrade: Jungle 137 with a better fc along with jvj's ifc/ibc, and new screenshots (I've dumped my original 'up').
And, for Easter weekend, how about a Saint:
A bigger & better scan of one of my oldest ups (3 years, almost to the day): Saint, The #12.
All story pages are re-done; ads & text somewhat improved; and a better HAG fc(2 of them) + bc (old one is dumped)
-
Nice work Len, thanks!
-
I took advantage if cimm32's new Jumbo 28 and added the 5 missing pages to my old 'up' (also more screenshots)
-
to Yoc:
I downed my Saint 5 to fix it (it was the old capital-letter problem: my cover was saint05... and all the pages were Saint05...), and also the other version, intending to add the missing pages to mine.
But.... a quick comparison showed that the 2 versions are the same! (except mine omitted the non-story pages and my files were half the size).
My up isn't in my CP, so you can dump it if you feel it's not worth keeping.
-
Ok, I've pulled your inc version down. thanks for letting me know Len.
-
My last 2 Feature fiche-replacements for now: 75 & 78, but both are inc: 75 has the cf from dm's fiche. and 78 has 4 fiche cfs!
-
Thanks Len!
-
As requested, Whirlwind 3 now new & improved!
The fc (a larger scan) is now at the front; there's now a bc; and screenshots are added.
-
thanks as always Len
:)
-
And, yoc's Heroic 17 upload now c2c with the addition of the missing 4 pgs from ml's upload of jvj's comic.
More on the Whirlwind 3:
I did all the changes via my CP, but the fc's thumbnail still does Not show up (it still shows the original first scan: pg1), But Preview works ok!
-
Thanks Len. I appreciate the help with this.
Cover thumbs will never change unless the file is re-uploaded from scratch. Wish it were otherwise.
-
Ok. If it's a cover-thumb problem, I'll do full re-ups.
Last night's newscan: another in my when-will-it-ever-end series of Wild Bill Pecos, the Westerner: #38.
And, tonight: the first Judy of the Jungle: Exciting 55 (with cf from darkmark).
Coming soon: The last missing late-# Thrilling with Pr. Pantha: #73 (also Frazetta's Looie L.)
-
Thanks for the paper version of Exciting 55, Len! Great job! :)
-
A double-fix tonight: Dollguys 34 & 47, to place cover at the start.
Also, bc's added, a better fc for 34, screenshots, files re-named to .cbz, & some re-named scans to indicate each story's first page
-
Thanks Len for the latest "Fixes".
Geo
-
A minor triple-fix tonight: Air Fighters 4 & Airboys v4 n5&6, just to put the cover at the front (more capital-letter errors... I had added fiche ifc's and named them scan00-Fiche-ifc, which out them ahead of scan00-fc). The only other improvements were changing them to .cbz's, and minor title/description changes.
I've dumped the old ones, but if you'd like to remove some extra stuff, the unfixed versions of 2 recent FigYank fixes (18 & 20) are still on the site.
Just noticed something... maybe yoc's 2 old FigY archives could be moved to the archive section
++++++++++++++++++++
One more: I upped an upgrade to rolster's Cap Battle 1(diff version), replacing all the fiches except the ifc/ibc with mostly bhcomics scans, plus 2 Lofty pages and a HAG bc.
-
Thanks Len!
The Fighting Yanks are in both sections. The Archives links lead to the Better site files.
-
Oops. Gotta learn to check all sections.
Tonight, 3 more fix-upgrades to get the cover to the front: Feature Funnies 6 (added the so-so fc); Ghost Rider 8(1 story): now with a bc; and Dynamic 14 (was 35pgs; now c2c, with the missing pgs borrowed from the new up). Also, all now are .cbz, and have screenshots.
All oldies are removed!
-
Thanks for doing them Len.
:)
-
2 more fixes: Popular 47; was my old upload. I'll upgrade the scans someday; meanwhile, the cover is now in place, and the file is now .cbz
and Police 5; this was a snardermann scan, with cgc info at the top. The fc is now in place, it's now .cbz, and with more screenshots.
Oldies removed!
-
Thanks again for helping Len.
:)
-
2 upgrades tonight:
Prize 31 (was missing 2 cfs, including 7 Frankie pgs & the ifc/ibc) is now c2c! Oldie is removed!
And Green Hornet 7: narfstar's old upload now has the fc and a missing house ad (I'll be doing the 'rest of the issue' soon). I can't dump the old one.
His other 2 uploads are also missing the fcs (and maybe ads)... I guess you weren't allowing even the covers back then.
-
Thanks for the updated versions, Len! :)
-
The last from my latest list of fc-fixes: Super-Mystery v5n6(also: a better fc; bc added); and v7n6(no improvements).
So, I decided to also upgrade v8n6: it's now c2c (done via my CP).
-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-
And 2 new ups, a first and a last:
Holyoke's OneShot #1; Redmask #47(last unscanned issue, unless you count Tim Holt #11, which actually should be lumped together with Redmask)
-
Thanks very much Len. I've updated the ME section a bit marking some titles as finally complete (if missing the odd page here and there.)
-
Thanks Len for all your updates as of late.
Geo
-
Finally! I've added a Feature Comic that's not a fiche-replacement: #103
Also, I upgraded my old Jumbo 64, adding the missing text story & HAG bc from yoc's up, and a better fc from HAG; plus, as usual, screenshots, & re-naming to .cbz; old one removed!
(you can remove the comment from yoc's #64 about #60 being missing from the site).
Coming Very Soon: Jumbo 147!
-
Thanks Len.
Comment removed.
-
Thanks for the Jumbo 147 Len.
Hope there's a FHF book for May.
:)
-
Bravo again!
-
Finally! I've added a Feature Comic that's not a fiche-replacement: #103[/b
Thank you, Len. The "Queen of the Ants" Doll Man story was great. The Queen was a wonderful villainess and it is almost a pity that she didn't make it out of the adventure alive. The rest of the issue wasn't bad either.
-
Tonight, it's Frankie & Brenda!
That is, it's Prize's Frankenstein 10, and Brenda Starr 9.
Also, a mash-up of Crash 4 from reprints & fiches, with a dash of HAGs.
(note to yoc: yup, I've saved one for the FHF; I'll get it to you on Sunday)
-
Nice Work on the Crash Issue...
-
Thanks again Len.
Geo
-
Thanks very much Len!
-
Appreciated as always.
-
Tonight, another Crash-mash: Crash 2: nearly-half from reprints (HOOS 10), half from DM's fiches, with a pair of old HAGs.
And speaking of old hags, it's South Sea Girl in a new Seven Seas: #4!
And, something new for me: a Prize Western: #100 (my first of 4 scans)
-
Love that Severin/Elder art in the Prize Comics Western.
Muchas Gracias Amigo
Joe
-
Thanks Len, always welcome "Good Girl Art" with the Seven Sea issue you up'd.
Geo
-
Back to the world of Prize comics tonight: Prize #53. I'll have #55 done maybe tomorrow, and a Headline, and maybe another PrzWestern this week.
-
Thanks Len, feel free to add your Planet anytime, thanks again for supporting FHF.
:)
-
Prize Comics #53 is another winner. A couple of really nicely illustrated stories by Charles Voight and Dick Briefer's Frankenstein!
Looking forward to #55.
Thanks
Joe
-
I'd also like to throw in my thanks for Prize Comics 53, Len. Looking forward to Prize 55. :)
- KB
-
Thanks for the Prize makes us all winners. Briefer's Frank is always a treat
-
Sorry that #55 is the only Frankie-free issue!
Prize is a series that needs a Lot of help to finish
-
JVJ has a ton of Prize Comics issues, if any of the scanners could help out... :)
-
I'd scan some if they can be sent to The Great White North (thx to global warming: soon to be the Great Green North).
Is there a list anywhere of Everything he has?
************************************
Tonight's Prize-of-the-day; Headline 20, the 2nd-last with Atomic Man.
And fresh from The Factory: Planet 14! 5 fiches: ifc,ibc, pgs 2,63-4; 3 HAGs: fc,bc & pg1!
-
I'd scan some if they can be sent to The Great White North (thx to global warming: soon to be the Great Green North).
Is there a list anywhere of Everything he has?
The list is under "JVJ Collection" at the top of the What You Can Upload folder:
http://digitalcomicmuseum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1874.0.html
The following are his issues of Prize Comics:
PRIZE COMICS 12,25,28-31,33-36,41-44,46,48-53,55,57,61-63,66
This would definitely fill a ton of issues that DCM needs. :)

Hi KB,
JVJ allows only a small number of scanners and nobody will match the numbers or speed of Rangerhouse. I suggest we just sit tight and wait for him to get around to doing Prize books.
He has managed to scan an astounding 138 books since he joined the project in mid-February! :o

It's good that we have new blood in the project ... maybe I can retire after I finish this batch. (only 17 more to scan)
-
What?!? Retire! I sure HOPE NOT!
You're one of the best scanners on the project Snard!
-
Tonight, it's a guns & killing-packed trio, from 3 publishers:
Prize Western 112, Crack western 83, and Western True Crime 4!
By the way, any chance of the Fox westerns getting their own sections? And also too maybe perhaps the 4 Rocket Kellys, 3 Eagles, 3 Sabus, 3 Dorothy Lamours, and the 2 US Jones?
-
Hi Len,
If there are four or more issues I try to have a section. I'll look into it.
-
3 replacements tonight, as I begin Fawcett week:
Wow 47 - replaces dm's fiche; from coverless: fc+bc from HAG & ifc,ibc from dm.
CapM Jr 85 - very minor upgrade; restores my original up that was replaced by dm's up with 2 missing pages added. I cleaned up a few file names, restored the screenshots, and substituted a better HAG fc ( :'( I forgot to edit the HAG fc; then I deleted & re-upped the file, but forgot that the un-fixed fc thumb still appears)
and a non-Fawcett minor upgrade: I replaced my old Speed 36 with a c2c version: added the ifc/ibc thx to the rh scan, plus screenshots. (I need your help to remove the old one; thx!)
-
Thanks Len!
I've removed the old versions.
-
Continuing my Fawcett week: another fiche-replacement: Captain Midnight 5, from coverless, so with hag fc+bc and dm's fiche ifc+ibc
-
Thanks Len! :D
-
Continuing my Fawcett fiche-replacement week: SpySmasher 9, from coverless, so with hag fc+bc and dm's fiche ifc+ibc. (if you'd like to remove another file, there's two SS #6 ups (I think it's #6) from DM: an inc one followed by a c2c one)
-
Really enjoying the heck out of these Fawcetts, Len. Thanks for scanning and uploading them. :)
-
And tonight it's a Fawcett that's not a fiche-replacement: Cap Jr #21!
-
Now this is the best one I've seen in a long time! Thanks, Len, please continue.
-
And tonight it's a Fawcett that's not a fiche-replacement: Cap Jr #21!
Thank you. I enjoyed the issue a good deal.
-
A Jr #20 is in the works... maybe in a week.
Meanwhile, back to Fawcett fiche-replacements: Whiz 18!, with HAG fc+bc and dm's fiche ifc+ibc.
One more to go tomorrow!
-
Eagerly awaiting new Captain Marvel, Jr.!
-
Thanks again Len!
:)
-
And my final (for a week or two) Fawcett - one more fiche-replacement: Whiz 21!
If you'd like to clean up some stuff, there's a bunch of Whiz fiches along with this one that have been replaced but not removed: 9, 18, 25, 30 & 35
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
A thrilling upgrade tonight: Thrilling #70. It's a scan of a comic with chewed pages. The Fraz LooieL story was the most-damaged, but yoc's magic editing has patched the pages.
-
It was my pleasure to help Len.
-
It's Harvey time!
Tonight, I've added Green Hornet 16... two 10-pg GH stories are deleted (and not scanned yet, for those who are wondering), so you get 40 of 60 pgs. No Blonde Bomber yet, so it's Spirit of 76, Zebra Twinkle Twins, Rosie the Riveter, and assorted fillers.
-
Happy to see another issue of Green Hornet. Thanks Len. :)
-
And tonight, it's over to the Hillman folder: a replacement for the old, dark fiche of Air Fighters #1!
F&bc from HAG; if&ibc &pg63-4 from tigger.
This comic is a one-shot -- none of the strips ever appeared again. A year later (!) a 2nd issue was published starring Airboy and all the other familiar strips of the series.
-
Very nice fill Len, thanks!
-
And tonight, a short stopover in the Quality folder:
a true first-issue this time, although it's actually numbered 63: the first Crack Western!
and an upgrade of my Feature 60, with the missing 11 pages borrowed from dsdaboss, plus HAG fc(replacing my torn one) &bc. Also, the usual screenshots. (I need your help to remove the old one which was a 'fixed' one upped by the fixer. Thx!)
-
Will do Len, thanks.
-
A side trip over to the Novelty folder tonight: 4 Most v3#1! - c2c with a HAG fc
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
And tonight, it's a detour into the Prize folder, with a pair of Prize Westerns: 84 & 88, both with Elder & Severin art.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Thanks, Len! (This is a recording.)
-
And tonight, it's a detour into the Prize folder, with a pair of Prize Westerns: 84 & 88, both with Elder & Severin art.
Thank you, Len. I really like Prize Western which I remember from my early childhood.
-
Those are the last of my PWs, but there's a batch from the JVJ collection on the way some day.
-
A short stopover in the Trojan folder tonight:
Western Crime Busters 3! (c2c) (2 issues to go)
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Nothing new in tonight's upload: I've replaced snard's upgrade of my White Princess o' the Jungle 3. Now with screenshots put back, and renamed .cbz. Also I think the clean HAG fc I originally added is better than the new marked-up one, so I put it back. All complaints are welcome!
-
As the sun slowly rises in the East, it's Wild Bill Pecos week! (or half-week).
Today: The Westerner #16! (aka issue #3). Zombies!
-
Thanks Len!

Sorry about that; the person who supplied the upgrade scans gave me all 4 covers. I probably should have included both the Heritage and new front covers in my upload, especially since the newer front cover had been 'autographed'.
-
No problem Snard. I've pulled down your version.
Len is happy to handle upgrades to any scans of his on the site. If you want to just send him the new pages he'll put the package together and include screenshots.
-Yoc
-
Continuing the series Millions have been begging for, tonight it's TWO Wild Bill Pecoses, the Westerner #15(2nd issue) and #24 (2 Krigsteins!)
-
And one more (so far) tonight: Westerner 17 (for the millions who are wondering, I have 4 more ready for editing, and one more in the postal pipeline).
After all this? It'll be Quality time! (Features & Nationals & maybe Crack Westerns)
-
Thanks Len, looking forward to them, especially the Quality books!
-
By the way, somebody has been giving my every one of my Westerner uploads an extra-low rating, between 2 & 4. Can ratings be traced?
-
It's not me rating the books, Len,
but I'm always curious: how would knowing who was doing it affect the rest of your life? Seriously. Lots of people seem to spend an inordinate amount of time searching for answers to fairly meaningless trivia (just follow any of the threads on the Timely/Atlas/Marvel board). "Knowing" can't really have that great an impact on your life, can it? Maybe someone doesn't like partial scans? Really, their rating is NOT a reflection on you or your work unless you allow it to be. My advise is to ignore the ratings and continue with your wonderful scanning efforts. Remember, "consider the source." And if it's anonymous, "ignore the feedback."
FWIW.
Peace, Jim (|:{>
-
Sorry Len, we have no way of knowing who rates what on any books.
I agree with Jim, in the end it's just one person and not that important. If someone really wants to make a point they should leave a comment with their name on it.
-
Oh, well... back to work! (to Jim: thx for the comments!)
My nightly Wild Bill Pecos (Westerner): #36!
-
Those low ratings sure ain't coming from me, Len. I'm enjoying the heck out of these issues of The Westerner that you've been uploading. They've got some really nice art by the likes of Shores, Buscema and Krigstein in them. More people should look 'em over.
Keep 'em coming and muchas gracias!
Joe
-
Thank you Len for another western book.
Geo
-
I have to admit that I hadn't read any of the "Westerner" book before, let alone rate them. I'm glad the issue came up, because I've read the latest addition and two others. I think they are good material and I'll probably get around to reaing the others, probably later than sooner.
-
It's great to see others getting interested in these. I got started because of the 6 issues with K-Bar Kate, and then the Krigstein issues, and then started picking up as many as I could (as cheaply as I could!).
So.... tonight it's a pair of Pecoses: Westerner 21 & 34.
One more in hand to edit (23), and one more on the way (33).

Westerner #34 is a solid issues. Being an old fart I enjoyed "The Two-Gun Grandpappies."
-
Thanks again Len for the uploads.
Geo
-
At last! Ghost Rider #9! (c2c, with 2 HAG fcs, and a bc)
-
Yahoo!
Looking forward to seeing it Len!
:D
-
A double stopover tonight:
first, over to the Prize folder for Frankenstein 14,
and then back to Fiction House for Jumbo 30!
-
Thanks you Very Very much Len!
New Franky gang, go get it!!
-
And now, it's the start of Quality week:
the first 2 are major upgrades... tonight it's Feature 93, formerly only 21 paper pgs, now all-paper!
(and I need your help to remove the old one; thx!)
-
Are you gonna be editing this one, Freddy?
-
Old one now gone. If Len shares it it's like been finished DM.
-
Old one now gone. If Len shares it it's like been finished DM.
I think DM was too nice to say that maybe Len 'goofed' on his upload - it looks like the added pages are the raw scans instead of the edited ones. Pages 2-13 aren't cropped or straightened at all, and pages 2,4,6,8,10 & 12 are upside down. However, the pages added at the end of the book (50-56) look fine.

The upsidedown scans were a clue that the book would wind up being reloaded, but it will be a great issue once it is fixed. A month from now we won't remember there had been a problem but a nice issue of Feature will be up for (hopefully) a good long time.
-
Ah, sorry about that DM. I admit I replied without checking. My bad. :-X :-\
-
I wish somebody would email me about this stuff. Oh, well... I'll get it re-done tonight.
The Doll & Rusty pages aren't the added ones, they're old scans. What I did was scan the rest of the comic, but I messed up the and included old unedited Doll pgs.
My new up is still there; pls don't remove it! I'll use my CP to replace the file.
Meanwhile, I've now done the same with #94! All pages are ok!
-
Feature #93 is fixed.
And, continuing Quality week: a completely unscanned issue for a change: Feature #53!
-
great thanks ff
-
Feature #93 is fixed.
And, continuing Quality week: a completely unscanned issue for a change: Feature #53!
Thank you. I look forward to reading it. Enjoyed Feature #93 too, by the way.
-
After no upload last night, tonight it's a National double for Quality week:
Nationals 32 & 35!
-
And, to bring Quality week to an end, it's an early Dollman in Feature Comics 31 (c2c paper).
It mostly replaces dm's old fiche, but his up has a different paper Dollguy story.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Today it's a one-night-stand in the Holyoke folder: Catman 27 (no ibc)!
-
Very nice, thanks Len!
-
Tonight, an extra Fawcett, special for d-mark: Cap Jr 20, c2c!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
We luvvit.
-
Over to a section that's not easy to add to: early Fox... it's Samson #6! (last issue published). c2c with HAG fc+bc; the ifc is missing a bottom-corner chunk
-
I've been waiting for someone to add that Samson issue. It's one of my favorites.
Still hoping we might get a complete Eagle #4 (first eight pages are missing here at DCM) or Weird Comics #20, but as Len points out, Fox issues are terribly hard to find. :'(
-
WOW I've never seen this issue before, nice work.
-
MUCH appreciated, Len!
-
As usual, thanks.
-
Something Much less dramatic tonight: a minor upgrade of prime-user's fix of my old Catman 10: now with a paper bc; also a larger fc; some file renaming; and my usual screenshots.
-
Thanks for the upgrades guys. I've removed to Prime's version.
-
More minor stuff:
Saint, The #1 upgrade: added 3 text & ad pgs, & the bc; also a better fc & screenshots.
And, a 2-page upload: the missing pgs from dsdaboss' Startling 42
-
Very nice, thanks Len!
-
Tonight, it's another Brenda Starr: vol1 #13 (first issue).
(I think if you're going to incorporate the 2 Avon/Four-star issues with the Superiors, that you should add the volume numbers: Avons should be numbered vol 1 #13-14, and the Sups vol 2 #3-12. But then, shouldn't the 3 Charltons (vol 2 #13-15) also be included?).
-
Ok Len, in this case I'll add volume #s to each series.
-
Over to the Noveltys tonight: Blue Bolt v2n6! (c2c)
I have a bunch more (later issues), and I hope to have a Novelty Week to start July
-
Thanks Len, looking forward to it!
-
Back over to Harvey for a night: a new & improved Green Hornet 31 to replace my very old, 2-stories-only version. Now c2c except, of course, for Greenie himself.
Old version has been dumped!
(note to GH fans: my MF site still has my old version. Stay tuned for updates!
-
Very nice, thanks Len!
-
Tonight it's all about ME! and #1!
Yes, it's Manhunt #1 (Undercover Girl & friends), and also Ghost Rider #5!
-
Great stuff, thanks Len!
-
Glad to see them, I love ME's!
-
Tonight, it's a quick jump into the Better/Standard/Nedor world for Startling 43! More Front-page Peggy!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
I've upgraded my 2 no-ads/text Western Crime Busters to c2c (#s 5 & 9), but I did them via my CP so they won't show in the New Uploads list
-
Thanks Len, we appreciate the upgrades.
:)
-
For fans of GreenHornet-less Green Hornet comics, it's Green Hornet #24! This completes the run of Blonde Bomber.
Those who know where to look for GH know what to do. Those who don't, pls write!
-
Yay! More Spirit of '76!
Thanks Len! :D
-
Thanks Len, keep'em coming.
Geo
-
And, at last, it's Sheena QotJ #6; enjoy!
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
When I looked through the fiche Fantastic 14 I thought the Stardust looked familiar, so I pulled out an old CD and found I had a 5-year-old 'paper' Stardust scan that I picked up from a long-forgotten website.
And, in response to Billions of requests, tonight I've upped Super Circus #4! (Cross pub.) (small fc, and no ifc,ibc,bc)
-
Thanks Len. Maybe someone can merge the paper story with the fiche and reupload? DM?
And a big thanks for Super Circus #4. Now crossed off my list. (Pun intended)
-
I've posted a melded version with paper scans of both Stardust and Flip Falcon on the FTP. All yours.
-
Thanks DM!
-
Tonight, it's Crackajack time!
A new scan of #25 (first Black Owl issue), but with 3 pages (#37-42) torn out: missing are the whole 4-page One Million BC story, the last Gabby Scoops page, and a filler page. Also, the 2-page Tarzan text story is removed.
And a new upload of #26, now with 37 'paper' scans replacing the fiches.
If you'd like to clean up the section, you can remove the unfixed #43 (there's a fixed one), and the fiche #33 (replaced by a mostly-paper upload).
-
Thanks Len.
:)
-
I won't mention my Frisky Fables (v2#5) upload.
But, I will mention my crusade to fill in the cracks... the Crack Westerns, that is.
Tonight it's #s 64, 75 & 79. 64 is in truly ugly condition, 79 is coverless, and 75 has a poor fc (HAG has none of the above).
Two-Gun Lil in every issue! Lots more on the way!
-
Thanks for those Len. Rare for Hertiage to not to have something
-
A Friday the 13th special for yoc:
Four Fearless Flints From Famous Funnies 99, 102, 105, 106!
(I'll do a few more stories from the issues soon)
and a new JoJo: #26!
-
Wow, WOW!
Thanks so much Len, an amazing night for Fearless!
-
Tonight, it's Crackajack time!

If you'd like to clean up the section, you can remove the unfixed #43 (there's a fixed one), and the fiche #33 (replaced by a mostly-paper upload).
Enjoyed both issues, Len, mainly for the first Owl story in #25 and the more standard Owl story in #26, although I also always enjoy the odd "Stratosphere Jim" series with its gigantic airplane.
-
3 more Crack Westerns fiiled tonight: 66, 69 & 80. These are better than the last 3: 66&9 are c2c, but 80 was coverless and HAG has none (they're missing a lot of non-superhero), so I only have a smallish gcdb fc.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Tonight: my last (for now) Crack Western: #68, c2c!
Sorry about that incomplete Charlie Chan #3, to go along with #4, both missing 2 cfs. I can't find reasonably-priced copies. Sad that the non-Chan pages are later in the comic, so 8 prime pages are missing.
-
Ah well, thanks for trying Len.
-
Over to Orbit & Prize tonight:
Westerner #33, with a final, guest appearance by Calamity Kate.
And, a special for yoc, a complete Frankie #15! (I removed the partial, streaky upload).
Both are missing the ifc/ibc.
-
Thanks Len!
-
A Fawcett trio tonight:
Mary Marvel 26 (c2c; replaces old fiche); Don Winslow 52(wow!) (no ifc,ibc); and a minor upgrade to the 2006 Whiz 71 upload: 2 ad pages & a HAG-bc added (mine is coverless, and the old up had no ibc/bc)
-
Thanks Len.
I sent you a note on Whiz71 a little while ago.
-
A pair of replacements tonight:
National 38 c2c -replaces old fiche;
and Jungle 73 - now c2c with the missing cf added to the ancient ae660 upload (and a different fc)
-
It's morning!
So how about a Platinum Age addition: Feature Funnies 4! Coverless, so a HAG fc, but no bc.
-
NICE! Thanks Len!
-
and over to Novelty for a nice late BlueBolt: vol8#7!
-
Cover to Cover thankness Len.
Geo
-
Complete!
Yes, Trojan's Western Crime Busters is now (except for some inside-covers) complete, with issues 6 & 7 added tonight! ^-^
-
Nice, thanks again Len!
-
It's morning!
So how about a Platinum Age addition: Feature Funnies 4! Coverless, so a HAG fc, but no bc.
That's a beautiful issue. I love early stories featuring the Clock, but even without the Clock story this issue has some nice series.
-
A Fawcett Fiche-replacement tonight: Captain Marvel Jr 80.
Nice to see those Startlings! Are you going to keep the old fiches?
Is the complete FamFun 91 circulating yet?
-
Been busy Len, sorry.
No on FF91 but very soon.
-
Some Fictional House stuff tonight:
Best is a c2c Fight 28!
Least is a replacement for movielover's upgrade of my original upload of Jungle 78. He added the ifc/ibc; I've now added the text story from snard's new upload, so it's c2c. (plus the usual screenshots added).
In-between is a new c2c Sheena 14, with the missing Simba, text & junk pages added, and new, larger Sheenascans (I kept 4 of the old ad scans) (it'll be upped later tonight)
-
Great work Len!
-
:'( Sorry... I got caught by the Capital-letter sorting problem: the 3 old Sheena 14 ad-scans were named 'Sheena14...', and the others were 'sheena14...', so the ads appeared first in Preview.
So: I used my CP to upload a fixed version, but the 'cover' thumb will remain the front-page house ad.
-
Tonight, another minor Jungle upgrade thx to snard: an upgraded version of my old Jungle 72 upload, now c2c with snard's ifc+ibc (and screenshots added)
I need your help to remove my old one.
And an upgrade to my Western Crime Busters #1: new & improved larger scans! (old one has been dumped)
And, a brand new c2c Blue Bolt: v4n4!
-
Done, thanks Len!
-
Tonight, two more minor Jungle upgrade thx to snard: upgraded versions of my old Jungle 64 & 71 uploads, now c2c with snard's cf for 64, and his ifc,ibc&bc plus a better fc from HAG for 71 (and, of course, screenshots added).
I removed the old 71, but I need your help again to remove the old 64. Thx!

This is intended to be a call for discussion, that I'm hoping will result in less confusion going forward.
The last few uploads by freddyfly and myself have been Jungle issues for which there are now multiple scans of each online. I've been labeling the title of my uploads with "-JVJ" at the end, but per past conventions, I've also been including "(diff ver)(c2c)" in there, since my uploads were a different scan, and provided a c2c version where the previous scan had been incomplete. Following these uploads, freddyfly has subsequently provided c2c versions of his original scans, using fill pages from my uploads, labeled "(first version upgrade; now c2c)". As a result, both books' title lines now seem to be more complicated than they need to be.
I'd like to suggest a simpler naming convention for cases like this where there are multiple scans for the same book online: rather than use "diff version" or "first version" or whatnot, just use a suffix for the origin of the scan. This could be "-JVJ" (which is already present on many scans) or "-freddyfly" or "-bhcomics" where appropriate. If all versions of a scan are c2c, then it seems unnecessary for them all to carry that label. My suggestion would be to label incomplete scans as such (e.g. "inc", "-ifc -ibc -bc", "-cf", "no ads" or whatever is appropriate).
I realize that it's nice to label a scan as "update" or "upgraded" to let people know there's a new version they might want to download, but unfortunately, the "upgraded" will probably still be there in the title a year from now.
I would welcome further discussion on this. (Including "if it ain't broke, don't fix it")

Tonight, two more minor Jungle upgrade thx to snard: upgraded versions of my old Jungle 64 & 71 uploads, now c2c with snard's cf for 64, and his ifc,ibc&bc plus a better fc from HAG for 71 (and, of course, screenshots added).
I removed the old 71, but I need your help again to remove the old 64. Thx!
Len,
Just curious; are you able to access the old scan via the "User CP" link at the top of the Files area page? I think it's possible to re-upload the file associated with a particular upload, as well as rename an existing scan.
-
Hi Snard,
A lot of Len's old scans show him as uploader when it was actually Narf or myself who added the books.
This was back in the GAC days when only he and I could actually add new scans. 2009 or so IIRC.
Not sure what to say about your label suggestion. We really would rather not have all scanners adding their 'tags' on the end of every upload which is what I suspect could easily happen. The 'JVJ' label is a special case as we felt it important to acknowledge Jim's exceptional contribution to the hobby. That is in no way a slight to all the other scanners out there like yourself or Len so please, nobody take offence. Len knows he's one of the all time #1 or 2 providers of scans to the site. Thanks Len!
Perhaps in this case, where two versions exist adding (ffly ver) wouldn't be a bad idea to distinguish between them.
But DCM does reserve the right to rename anything that doesn't fit in with the site.
Thanks again to ALL scanners out there making DCM the amazing repository for scans that it has become.

Actually, I was only suggesting an "origin" suffix for cases where there are multiple scans of the same book (and the noted exception of putting "-JVJ" on all scans of his books, even if it's the only scan).
And of course, this is your site, so you get to make the rules on naming and such. I guess part of my reason for bringing this up is that we all know what the "rules" are, so you won't have to rename our uploads as often, when we get the naming wrong.
Thanks again for all your work in maintaining this repository.

How critical is it to have all the information in the file name, guys?
Wouldn't it work to just name the different version "-1" and "-2" (or "-a" and "-b") and put all of the scanner/source information in the "description". Everyone deserves credit for their efforts and we have several ways outside of the filename to make certain that the work is attributed to the right person. It would be on the second level of displayed information - i.e. one would have to click on the issue in order to see it (rather than it being visible when one clicked on the title).
Thank you all for insisting on the "JVJ" appellation. I'm really honored (and proud) that you decided to do that. (Does anyone have a way of easily calculating how MANY comics of mine have made it to the site?)
Peace, Jim (|:{>

(Does anyone have a way of easily calculating how MANY comics of mine have made it to the site?)
I'm on a very substandard computer, just now, so I can't do what I'd like (copy the table into a spreadsheet and let it count), but a back-of-the-envelope check (searching "JVJ" and multiply the number of new entries per page by the number of pages) gave me just shy of 1,500. I'd say a word of thanks, but the majority of words floating through my head are at least mildly obscene in awe...
I agree on the naming conventions, by the way, for wha it's worth. Ideally, I'd prefer a bare name as possible (incomplete, special collection, or something similarly critical to see at a glance) with an included text file documenting the history copied into the comic's description.
-
Hi Jim,
I'm guesstimating there's just over 1500 JVJ scans on DCM now.
Wish there were an easy way to count them other than using the Search function and going blind counting them.
Numbered versions don't work for me guys. But I agree the majority of info can be hosted in the description area. One other thing though is I DO think including if it's has FICHE or is Incomplete should always be mentioned in the file name. But I don't think including C2C is necessary. Include it in the description but I've always assumed it's complete unless you read otherwise. No need to see 1000s of C2C everywhere.
-Yoc
-
I like the idea of Not including stuff like 'upgrade' in the title, or even 'now c2c', or 'now with the missing so-and-so page', since as Mike said, it eventually makes no sense, especially to new users. I always put 'c2c', but I can leave it out of the title.
My pet peeve is with phrases like 'paper/fiche', that don't indicate whether it's a couple of fiches, or half the comic.
So.... back to business... something totally new tonight: JoJo 8! (fan777's JoJo9 needs a small fix: it should be named 'Jo-Jo 9' instead of 'Jo Jo 9')
-
My pet peeve is with phrases like 'paper/fiche', that don't indicate whether it's a couple of fiches, or half the comic.
When I started downloading, with the obsessive-compulsive fervor of a new organizational project, the hybrid comics weren't common enough to consider, but for incomplete books, I generally did something like -inc58 to show the number of pages that were there (so that better scans, which presumably come later, alphabetize later). If I had kept to that standard, I'd probably also do something like -fiche18 to show the number of paper pages. I'm not recommending it, but maybe that'll spark a usable idea.
Because you're right. "Some fiche" is only a useful description until there's "not so much fiche" out there.
-
Thanks for the up Len and I "fixed" the problem with the other one naming.
Geo
-
I've made a point of including how many fiche pages are there in our file names when possible.
The use of Upgrade, etc is because we've got a lot of members checking in and they might say 'bah, I've already got that.'
-
Back to upgrades tonight, this time my never-ending Airboy improvements (all were originally bhcomics scans with no ad/text pages):
v6#10 now is c2c paper (instead of fiche-fills). The small gcdb fc is replaced by a better one from eBay (still none at HAG), plus a bc from the same eBay auction, plus camera-images (non-flat) of the ifc+ibc from yet another eBay auction.
V6#12 & v7#4 now have all 48 pages, but still no ifc/ibc/bcs.
And, another Fawcett fiche-replacement: Cap Jr 59 (but with fiche cf)
I removed the old v7#4, but I need your help again to remove the other three. Thx!
-
And tonight it's a new c2c Blue Bolt: v4#8;
and 2 more upgrades to complete earlier bhcomics scans, thx to snard's new scans: Jungles 48 & 56.
BUT, I found that my original Jg48 upload is technically gone, since primeUser's upgrade (he added a ibc+bc from another comic) also has seriously-enhanced scans, so I wouldn't even call it a bhcomics scan anymore. I also replaced the fc+bc with HAG versions.
and, enough with the upgrades... here's a new c2c FH: Jumbo 156!
-
Thanks guys!
-
JUMBO #156 contains a Sheena story I've been trying to source for ages. Thanks, Len.
-
Oh, well... back to minor upgrades: thx yet again to snard, I've c2c'd my old Jungle 31 upload. (old inc one has been removed!)
-
Thanks Len for another c2c Jungle.
Geo
-
The Olympics are over! Back to normal!
So... my last (for now) Blue (not Usain) Bolt: v3#8 c2c!
-
Over to the quality stuff tonight: it's National #45: c2c, and new large scans. You can dump the old, smallish, fuzzy inc one that I upped long ago in a previous life (it was re-upped by primeuser during the Preview-fixes.
-
Thank you for the new National #45 scans, Len. They look great. >:D
-
I also hope to redo #43&4 some day, if I can get cheap copies.
Note to yoc: will you be upping the GM National 9? It's not in the Suspect folder, and I don't have a complete copy.
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
I'm on holiday right now Len.
I hope to see more GM scans going up sometime soon. If not I'll take care of what I have when I get back home.
-Yoc
-
Thanks to Len we now have a c2c issue of National Comics 033.
Geo
-
Thank you, Len! :D
-
And my last Quality for now: Feature 62!
-
Thanks for more Dollman
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
A pair of Masters tonight: 50 & 84, both replacements for old fiches.
#50 was the first issue for both Nyoka and Radar
-
Thanks for adding those two issues of Master Comics, Len! :)
-
Thanks again Len.
Geo
-
A couple of minor National upgrades:
added HAG fc+bc to the all-fiche #26,
and added paper pgs 1&64 to #7 (it had fiche ow) (I've had those 2 pags for a Long time, and I don't have a clue where I got them; possibly an eBay auction).
Pls remove oldies!
Also, I'll be upgrading my Pocket #3 to replace 10 fiche-pages with paper ones from the new upload.
All now with new screenshots!
-
Thanks for the work on those Len.
Geo
-
Starting Fox week: it's Flame #6! paper c2c to complete the series!
-
Good stuff! And that retires the side.
-
WOW! Thanks very much Len.
:)
-
Continuing Fox week... tonight it's c2c Green Mask #9!. The cover is somewhat damaged, but there's none at HAG.
-
Nice work Len, many thanks!
:)
-
Thanks for the Green Mask, Len! :D
-
oops... forgot to add: Green Mask #9 2-page centerfold editing by Yoc!
-
It's pretty biblical! ;)
-
Continuing Fox week, over to the ladies: ZootRulah #12!
GREAT to see the new Prizes! ^-^
-
Thanks for the Zoot Len.
Yep Len, it looks as we are having a bunch
of Prizes showing up now.
Geo
-
And a September special for Yoc: Famous Fearless Flint Funnies 101! (3 stories only: Flint, Scarlet & Connie)
One more to go!
-
Yahoooooooooo!
Wow, thanks very much Len. Just made my day!
:D
-
Time to start upgrading some of my early so-so scans, starting with:
Jumbos 150, 152 & 158! - large, new scans (except non-house ads)(ifc with indicia re-done).
I was able to remove my old 150, but I need your help to dump 152 & 158
-
Dumped. Thanks for the new versions Len!
-
To end summer (back to school!) and Fox (not TV) week, it's:
Samson #2!
-
Thanks Len for the Samson.
Geo
-
A minor, non-essential upload tonight: I c2c'd my 4Favs #6 using pages from movielover's new up (and fixed the filename, and added screenshots). Old one is dumped!
-
Cowgirl Romances 11! Whoopee!
No comment.
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
It's Nedor time!
Tonight: Exciting #52 with Miss Masque!
Centerfold editing by yoc!
-
Very exciting, Len! ;) :D
Seriously though, it's a great issue and the scans are lovely. Thanks for filling this hole in the Nedor section.
-
And a big thank you Len for it.
Geo
-
More hole-filling tonight:
Fight time!... issue #29! [c2c]
-
Thanks for the "Fight" Len.
Geo
-
Thanks for Feature Comics 62! That was the *last* Spider Widow adventure that hadn't been scanned yet.
-
Tonight's prize is:
Treasure #1! My copy's coverless, so the fc&bc are thx to the old HAG, but the ifc+ibc are the cut versions from the current camera-pix version, so no indicia.
(If you're keeping the camera version, you can remove the request for a real scan)
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
It's ME night again!
Now upped: Undercover Girl #7! (3rd of 3 issues; all-reprints as usual)
-
And, my final WesternCrimeBusters upgrade: #8 (old one is dumped!).
Next, I hope to improve some of my oldest Jungle/Jumbos.
-
Love the upgrades Len.
Thanks! :)
-
Late notice: now upped: Thrilling (teen/western) #78!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
And, for my last upload of summer (or first of fall... take your choice)...
it's a non-fiche-replacement Fawcett: Master 74!
-
Thanks for the welcoming in of Fall, also for the scan Len.
Geo
-
One upgrade tonight: the missing cover + outer wrap of Crack Western 73... now c2c!
Pls remove old one!
-
Done. Thanks for the fills Len.
:)
-
It's ME night again!
Now added: Manhunt #9! RCMP! FBI! Scotland Yard! Undercover Girl! Trail Colt!

Thanks again Len.
Geo

Thanks Len.
Geo

For the end of September: it's Brenda Starr #10!
Several pages are printed off-center, leaving almost no border at the bottom
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
My first of October... it's not quite Hallowe'en yet, but how about:
Green Mask 11! Only 32 pages in this issue, with one GM story.
And the missing cf added to Jumbo 109! (pls remove oldie!)
-
Thanks very much for the upgrades Len!
-
A late Fawcett tonight: Master 122 (not a fiche-replacement!, but you can remove the old #129 fiche; there's a new paper/fiche one)
-
Thanks again Len for your up.
Geo
-
Sticking with Fawcett for Columbus Day (for you US guys; Thanksgiving for us Canadians):
Cap Marvel Jr 47, a fiche-replacement.
-
Thanks Len. Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving.
:)
-
It's Novelty Night!
A nice early Blue Bolt: v2#7, with the origin of Super-Lois, long before she appeared in Action/Superman!
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
Arrrrrrrrgh!
My fingers typed without consulting my brain. I'll fix it.
Thanks for catching it!
-
A minor upgrade of a previous upload: I c2c'd my Wonder 10 using scans from the GM upload.
My old one was re-upped by primeUser, so I need your help to remove it.
Also, thx to the new ups, I completed 2 of my Thrillings that were missing cfs, 46&61. I did it via my CP, so probably nobody's noticed it.
-
;D Yes! At last! Tim Holt 11! The first (and origin of) Ghost Rider!
Enjoy! :D
-
Wow! Very, very cool Len.
Congrats!!
Len, when upgrading please mark them as such in the first entry 'download name.'
I've adjusted these for you.
Congrats again on the TH11 buy.
:)
-
;D Yes! At last! Tim Holt 11! The first (and origin of) Ghost Rider!
Enjoy! :D
I did enjoy it a great deal, Len. I had long wanted to see the Ghost Rider origin story; I was amazed to see that he didn't wear the distinctive mask in the first appearance but, obviously, some concepts aren't fully developed when they first appear. The rest of the issue was also good.
-
Yep. And if you check TH12 you see he's got a different mask there as well Jon.
I hope we get to see the other missing issues following to see exactly when he donned the full face mask.
-

I just read the Ghost Rider story in "Tim Holt" #12, Yoc. The mask in that story is another step towards the character's appearance as you and I know it but still isn't quite there. Have you ever noticed the ads in some of the ME books (including Ghost Rider) that offer white scarf masks which (on paper at least) are apparently very much like the classic full face mask? I bet those are very scarce. I'd love to see one turn up on "Antiques Roadshow" but I'm not holding my breath.
-
Yep, seen them. Found one online even on this blog.

To yoc:
No more missing Tim Holts! (But, we need one Ghost Rider; #8)

Thanks Len,but I'll let Yoc handle it.

Thanks Len!

Attaway Len!

Tonight, it's an early Quality fiche-replacement: National #3!
From a wrinkled coverless copy, and it turns our the very-old fiche is Not c2c: it has no ibc, so I could only 'borrow' the ifc. Fc&bc from the usual old HAG.

I think it is a great issue and a tremendous improvement over the fiche copy, and the wrinkles aren't really troublesome. I enjoyed the Uncle Sam and Sally O'Neil stories tremendously. Great addition to the National Comics collection.
-
Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear...
It's The Lone Rider! (issue #22, that is)
-
Thank you Len.

A Fawcett fiche-replacement today: Master 112!
-
Thank you Len.

The real holiday, of course, is Nov 1: All Saints' Day, or All Hallows, and the evening before is Hallows' Evening, shortened to Hallowe'en.
So, how about a family comic to celebrate it: Marvel Family 15! (now c2c paper)
-
All true but strangely it's never caught on with the public.
Thanks for the latest Len.
:)
-
I'm back from computer Heck!
So, let's start off with the long-awaited Wow 46 fiche-replacement!
-
Welcome home Len!
:D

The real holiday, of course, is Nov 1: All Saints' Day, or All Hallows, and the evening before is Hallows' Evening, shortened to Hallowe'en.
So, how about a family comic to celebrate it: Marvel Family 15! (now c2c paper)
Actually the real holiday is Samhain (at least amongst the Celts) which marked the New Year (or at least the beginning of winter) on November 1st (of course that wasn't the calendar then -- the actual point was about midway between the Equinox and the Solstice. This dates back to BCE. During the time the Romans ruled Britain, Samhain was celebrated along with Feralia which was a day honoring the dead.
All Saints Day was introduced in 609, but it was celebrated in May. In 835 Gregory IV moved it to November 1. Cynic that I am, I assume the main purpose of this was to usurp the pagan day, much like Christmas is celebrated in December around the solstice and Saturnalia. Shepherds watch their flocks at night during the birthing season in spring, so it we take the Bible as gospel (pun intended), Jesus was born in the spring not winter.
-
Thanks to Jon for the info!
(By the way, that reinforces the fact that Christmas should be celebrated June 25 in the Southern hemisphere, and all other Christian holidays should be adjusted accordingly. So, next Apr 30 is Australian Halloween!).
Meanwhile, for the 'fifth day of Chrismas' (Dec 29), it's Prize's Charlie Chan #5! (no ifc/ibc).
Bonus scan: National 39 c2c!
-
Thanks Len, good to hear your back.
Geo
-
For the ninth day of Christmas (Jan 2), my scanner gave to me:
a Jumbo 162, a Jungle 60 (brand-new, larger scans, and now c2c!), & a Jungle 114 upgrade (now with the text&ad pages + the bc thx to Carl!) (done thru my CP).
And a bonus: Green Hornet 14, missing 2 Hornets (20 pages), and the ifc+ibc. Remaining stories: Spirit of 76, Zebra, Twinkle Twins, & Mighty Midgets.
Hornet fans, pls get in touch!
-
Thanks very much Len!
:)
-
For the early hours of the 11th Day of Christmas, a family comic:
Marvel Family 23! (a fiche-replacement; 5 more on the way)
-
Tonight, a Novelty: 4Most v2#1 (c2c)!
-
Thanks Len, we don't get those very often.
:)
-
It's family night again:
Marvel Family, that is... #39! (c2c paper) (fiche-replacement)
-
By the way... a giant Thanks to the powers that be for the Quick Links on all the preview pages! It makes life Much easier!
-
That would be CaptDJ doing all the coding Len. We hope more fun features and tweaks will be coming down the road.
I knew this one would impress you. :)
-
Tonight, a scan tweak: a re-up of ae660's old Jumbo 12 with old-HAG fc+bc replacing the fiches.
-
Another family night!
Cap, Jr & Mary starring in: Marvel Family #42! [fiche-replacement] (my copy is coverless, so the covers are from the usual places).
-
Finally got it upped tonight after a bug was squashed by Ian R.!
new stuff:
Jumbo 101 major upgrade!... one of a never-ending series of FH Jungle/Jumbo improvements.
(I need your help to dump the old one; it's not in my CP; thx!)
-
Done, thanks Len!
:)
-
2 major Green Hornet upgrades: #s 26 & 27; instead of 1 or 2 stories, they're now complete except for the ifc+ibc and the big Green bug. (I've dumped my 3-year-old partials).
(note to entomology fans: the missing stories are the same as the ones I upped long ago)
-
Thanks for the upgrades, Len! :D
-
The end of the family!
Yes... my last two Marvel Family fiche-replacements: #s 60 & 80. 60 was missing several pages, so I borrowed some from dm's old fiches.
Also, my last dcm contributions until I get more stuff!
-
Thanks very much Len, you've been a godsend for the site!
:)
-
Yes, thanks for all the updates you been doing as of late.
Geo
-
Oops... I should have added I'm still working on upgrades of issues I upped long ago that I haven't sold yet (Jungles/Jumbos mainly); also some from bhcomics like Lone Riders that are on the way!
-
Lone Rider upgrades done (#s 16-18, 23-24). All now with all stories! All old ups deleted!
Now I have to find issues 2 & 12!
-
Nicely done, thanks Len!
-
Tonight: next in my endless series of FH upgrades: Jungle 158 (he one with a Sheena story).
Yesterday: a very-partial Famous Funnies 47: 2 stories: War On Crime & Dick Calkins' Skyroads (as for the other Dick Calkins story, send me a msg if you're interested, or you can wait for yoc's next collection of links).
I have a mountain of strip-reprint comics that I'll probably never get around to scanning before I sell them, mainly early FamFunnies but also several Aces, a few Kings, and a Magic or 2. I'll try to do some of the later FFs (and my earliest one - #40), and the best stories from all the others.
-
Thank you for the "Jungle", always welcome in my book Len.
Geo
-
FamFun stuff:
Yoc has edited & upped my earliest FF: #40(no cf), and I've done 178, with 151 (no cf) on the way (those are the only two I have later than #119).
-
Thanks Guys.
Geo
-
Tonight, the next in my infinite series of Jumbo (&Jungle) upgrades: #143
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
I'm back with more:
First, it's a fiche replacement: Exciting 17! (but ifc+ibc still fiche)
-
Yes, Len's on a roll. Thanks.
Geo
-
Tonight, some partials & fills:
a special Flag Day treat for yoc: the last Fearless Flint from FamFun108!
next, a completed Lone Rider 19 (12 pages added; old scan deleted);
next, a completed Crack Western 71 (b&w cf replaced) (that completes the title, except for some non-story pgs) (it's the same jvj book if you want to delete the current scan).
next: ?
-
Thank you for the last Fearless Flint story we needed, freddyfly!
Yoc, you had the collected edition all ready to go, we were just waiting on the last 6 pages, right?
:P
-
And for yoc, Carl & the rest of the FH gang:
Jungle 9 completed! (ow added & 2 damaged pgs replaced) (old scan removed)
(sorry about the shadows; the comic is warped & brittle)
So another series bites the dust(?) (except, of course, for several ad & text pgs)
-
Thanks Len for another jungle book.
Geo
-
And one last upgrade: 14 scans added to darkmark's Cap Marv Jr 33 to make it c2c (& HAG fc+bc replacing ugly versions). Old scan can be removed.
-
Done. Thanks for the upgrades Len.
:)
-
it's a two-upgrade night:
first, Redmask 54 upgraded to c2c-paper (from 9-fiche) (but nobody will know 'cause I did it via my CP);
and, at last, an original Dollman 28 (instead of the IW reprint)
-
Thanks Len for them.
Geo
-
A minor upgrade first tonight: my fixed Doll Man 10 is refixed: now c2c paper with fiche fills replaced by paper from the 2nd version. Also file names adjusted to fix preview order, and screenshots added.
I need your help to dump my old one!
-
Done. Thanks very much Len.
-
Now to break my string of upgrades:
it's Fox's Western Killers 61! (2nd issue)
-
And back to upgrades:
paper Master 80 to replace dm's old fiche, but I'm missing the cf (1st 4 pgs of Bulletman! arrrrrrrgh), so dm's fiche lives on in the cf.
-
Thanks again Len!
-
A nice one 4U(as the say) tonight:
Quality's Feature 56! (c2c paper)
-
More Doll Man! (Probably the first GA hero I ever read.) Thanks, len.
-
Thanks Len for your latest upload.
Geo
-
Tonight it's my second of 3 fiche-replacements for early Nedors: Thrilling #7, but missing 2 ows & the cover. HAG had the fc+bc, so there's still 10 fiches.
I've saved the best (America's) for last (should be ready tomorrow).
-
Thanks again Len.
Geo
-
And, here's the best:
America's Best #1! (fiche-replacement)
This one was coverless and missing the back page (2 Woman in Red pgs!),
so bc+fc once again from HAG; ibc,ifc &pgs 63-4 from dm's fiches.
Also, front pg was damaged, so pgs1-2 edited by yoc!
There's other fiches you can dump: 10,11 &30, and maybe 31 (it includes a BT reprint)
-
Thanks again for these Len!
-
Back to Fox Westerns one more time:
Western Thrillers #3! (c2c)
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
And a flip back to fiche-replacements:
c2c paper Marvel Family 13!
-
Thanks Len for the replacement.
Geo
-
And still more replacements for old fiches, this time two Feature Comics:
an early one: #38, now all-paper,
and a late one: #135, now half-paper (the good half: Dollguy & RustyRyan, and a hag fc).
-
I have no idea where I got it, but I have an all paper scan of Feature 135 It's files seem to be dated about a year ago, so it's not really new and definitely not very old. Going to FTP now.
Jon
-
Thanks guys!
Len, I've moved yours off the main site as Jon's is all paper.
-
It's the same comic as my upload. I didn't mention that I had found the scans today on an old CD. Jon must have found the comicscan the same place I did, but I didn't keep the whole issue. I have no idea why I didn't add it to the site back then.
Guess my screenshots are gone. :'(
-
Sent you an email on 'Feature 135' Len.
-
It's Novelty time again!
First, Blue Bolt v3n10 (c2c);
next, a re-hash of the BB #1 upload that had fiches of the cover & 2 ows:
HAG fc+bc replace the fiches;
reprints of pages 1-4 from the Star reprint are added (fiches not deleted);
and an extra medium-size scan of the original pg1 that I picked up somewhere long ago.
finally an inc 4 Most #4 - 2 cfs missing (most of the Edison Bell story).
(it'll be upped very soon)
-
Thanks for the latest Len.
:)
-
A pair of family fiche-replacements today (& yesterday):
Marvel Family 59 & 67!
-
And, if you like duplicates, a second version of Crackajack 12 (bad timing in my buying)
-
No problem Len, dups are welcome, thanks for the upload.
Geo
-
Anybody out there :-/
Tonight, a Famous Funnies 100 upgrade from 2 stories to c2c minus Bucky!
-
I'm here, Len.
-
Hi, DM!
Thanks for all the Populars!
This a.m., a upgrade of one of my own early ups:
Westerner 27 - 12 pgs added to make it c2c!
-
Thanks Len!
Loving the upgrades.
:)
-
One more Fawcett upgrade, this time Not replacing a fichescan:
Junior #78! a complete new scan to upgrade the pappy-blog-Jr-only version.
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
And a couple of FamousFunnies, Buck-free as usual: 72 & 131!
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
A couple of minor FH upgrades:
Jumbo 117 now has all 48 pages, plus a bc (only ifc/ibc now missing) (I snuck this one in using my CP)
and Jungle 120 also now has all 48 pgs (only ibc missing) (I need your help to dump the old one) (also, pls remove my original Jumbo 143.. it was replaced by my upgrade)
-
Thanks Len. Old versions dumped for you.
-
And now for something completely (almost) different:
Keen Teen #2! starring Claire Voyant and the ever-popular Kitty Hawke!
(this was a 1945 two-issue run that combined a 32-pg comic with 16 pages of teen/movie-magazine/gossip stuff, which will remain unscanned.
Both issues are unnumbered and undated, and no mention of 'Magazine Enterprises'.
The title was resurrected in 1947 by M.E. as a completely different publication, with 4 mainly-teen-magazine issues numbered 3 to 6.
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
A new M.E. tonight, but it's another all-reprint issue:
SpAce Ace #5 -- first & last issue.
According to the gcdb, the numbering continues from Jet (1950-1), which also had SpAce Ace stories, but this comic reprints stories from the original SpAce Ace in Manhunt 1-7 (1947-8).
I was tempted to just copy pages from the Manhunts, but I decided to scan my comic in case of any changes. But, I'm missing the last page, so I had to copy the last story page from MH 5, and the last ad page is missing.
Is all this reasonably clear?
M.E. notes:
Manhunt info needs a small tweak: there are only 13 issues, not 14 (first run: #1-11; second run: #13-4)
Redmask info can be changed from
'Contains Ghost Rider story and Frazetta art in some issues.'
to:
Ghost Rider appears in #42-50, replaced by The Presto Kid for issues 51-4. [no Frazetta art]
-
Manhunt spawned 5 other titles:
Trail Colt (nn-2), which had the same original stories as Manhunt and directly followed the 11 original issues.
The rest contain a variety of reprints:
Undercover Girl 5-7 -- numbering from ?
Mysteries of Scotland Yard 1 (Kirk of S.Y. reprints);
Space Ace 5 -- numbering from Jet;
Red Fox 15 which followed the 2 later all-reprint Manhunts (13-4).
Only Fallon of the FBI didn't get his own comic.
-
Thanks Len. Updated ME entries.
-
And back to Fawcett fiche-replacements:
Master 43!, now c2c paper. My cover is really ugly, but HAG only has one FC and it's not in good shape either (but it's a lot better than mine).
-
Thanks Len.
I removed the extra versions you uploaded.
-
extra versions?
-
Tonight a pair of early Famous Buck-less Funnies: #s 64 & 67.
67 is also missing the ibc (my copy has no bc, so that scan is from HAG).
And a couple of upgrades via my CP:
Jumbo 117 now c2c with ifc(indicia removed)+ibc borrowed by fan777 from Jungle 107.
& 4Most #4 now c2c thx to othereric's scan of the 2 missing cfs from a jvj copy!
-
Thanks Len.
Yeah you had 3 copies of Master 43 on the site. Likely you hit confirm more than once. No big deal.
:)
-
Ok. I'll check for that from now on.
Tonight, it's over to the Harvey folder:
Green Hornet #19! 2 GHs removed this time, so only 28 pgs+cover left.
(rest of the issue not ready yet; also I've 'privatized' my MF folder, so you'll need a new link to access the GH stories)
-
It's 6A.M., EDT, Mar 27!
That makes it midnight, Mar 28 Tahiti time!
Happy birthday DCM!
-
[Are you going to change to daylight savings time? I noticed my 6:03am(EasternTime) posting shows as being upped at 5:03am]
So, for all our members in the Pacific ocean territories/countries of Tahiti, Cook Islands, and Line Islands (and more):
a first DCM-3rd-birthday gift: Green Hornet #12! (but, :'( , no GH stories can be shared)
-
I'm not sure how to change that setting Len.
Thanks for the first B-Day gift of the year!
-
Mar 28th has now spread across the Western Pacific, all of Asia, Africa and Europe, the Atlantic ocean, and Eastern North & South America up to the Central time zone,
so a Happy 3rd Anniversary to all those dcm-ers!
And now for my next Anniversary/Birthday upload:
Ghost Rider #8!, which completes the series except for a couple of pages in #2 and some non-story pages. (and a few need upgrades)
-
WOW!
What a great present for the site Len!
One of my all-time favourites.
:D
-
And now Mar 28 has begun in all of the Americas, and it's spreading across the Eastern Pacific, heading for the International dateline!
So, a dcm-3rd-birthday jungle gift:
Fox's Jo-Jo #28!
-
More 3rd-birthday jungle (& more) goodies:
the final missing color Jumbo: #21! (but lots of issues still missing some pages)
-
Thanks so much Len.
Geo
-
The 3rd-anniversary day (Mar 28) is slowly drawing to a close... all that's left is the eastern half of the Pacific ocean.. in a few hours it'll be Mar 29 on both sides of the int'l date line... farewell, 3rd birthday! :'(
So... a final birthday upload... a fiche-replacement of Master Comics #12!
To start the brand-new year #4, some nice Qualitys (not fiche-replacements) coming up soon: Feature 84, Modern 62, Hit 44!
-
An incredible job, and thanks!
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
But, I'll start with a partial fiche-replacement: Feature 78: 4 inner wraps were fiches; now only the cf is fiche.
-
Thanks again Len!
BTW - could you please add '-upgrade' at the end of the Download name like I adjusted this latest one?
Not everyone checks the forum and the automatic 'updated' designation the site adds will disappear after some days. If you add it to the name it never disappears.
Thanks!
-Yoc
-
Over to Fiction House tonight: Wambi #3! - c2c
I hope to have one or 2 more by the end of the month. If BB has a chance to do his 2, we might finish the series.
-
Over to Fawcett tonight:
c2c paper Wow 31, to replace an old fichescan
-
Thank you Len for your last two uploads.
Geo
-
Oh, Wow, man! ;-)
-
Over to Better/Standard/Nedor/Pines/Wise tonight for one of the missing Fighting Yanks: #19!, my first original contribution to the series. Enjoy!
-
And thank you for it Len.
Geo
-
And, finally back to Quality:
another series that I haven't added much to (only one issue before tonight):
one of the 3 missing Moderns: #62!
(if you like removing old fiches, there are 4 that have been replaced by 'paper': 58,79,81,83)
-
Thanks Len, I'll take a look for those issues and take care of it.
Geo
-
Next, another Quality series I've rarely visited:
one of the missing Hit Comics: #44!
-
A side trip over to Eastern with a complete (except for Bucky) Famous Funnies 101! (I've removed my earlier partial-issue upload)
-
Thanks Len, they are most appreciated.
Geo
-
Tonight a mini-mini-upgrade: half of 1 panel added to Tim Holt 32 (a coupon was cut out of my earlier comic and it had damaged the last Ghost Rider page). So, both damaged pages are replaced.
I decided to also re-scan & enlarge the whole Ghost Rider story.
-
Thanks for your work on this Len.
Geo
-
Thanks Len. GR is a fan favourite of many.
Especially me!
-
Over to Eastern tonight with an early Famous Funnies: #57, Buck-less as usual.
-
Thanks for the FF Len.
Geo
-
Back to Quality:
the 3rd-last missing Feature: #84! (still need 74, and 27 except for the Dollperson story) (and several early fiches to replace) (and several inc issues need filling)
-
Thanks again Len!
-
Mentioning Feature 27 (my 4-year-old upload) made me realize that I probably had more scans buried on an old CD, so I dug it out and found I had 22 more pages, so tonight's upload is:
Feature Comics 27 - now with fc+bc from Hag + 26 pages (6 stories, but the last Clock page is missing) (resolution isn't bad, but it's lower than my scans of the last few years)
-
Thanks largely, Len!
-
More stuff from an old CD:
'paper' scans of The Clock from Feature 26, so I've re-upped DM's fiche of 26 with that story + the fc replaced (fc from an eBay auction).
-
and one last one from my ancient, buried CD:
Tigger's old Feature 28 fiche now replaced by an almost-half (30pgs) paper scan: fc+bc from Hag; 28 pgs (6 stories, but with the last Clock page missing again) from me (also, fichescans brightened & compressed).
-
You're doing fine, Len! Keep it up!
-
Thanks again Len for all these updates.
Geo
-
Tonight, an upgrade to my Feature 26 upgrade, thx to info from dM:
now with 2 paper stories from pappy's blog: Clock & Cap Fortune.
-
Sticking with Quality (and my last one for now), one of my favo(u)rites tonight:
all-paper Dollman #4! (fiche-replacement)
-
Thanks so much Len.
Geo
-
A short stopover in Fox territory:
Fantastic #13, c2c paper!
The current upload is a part fiche / part paper (# of paper pgs unknown), so probably should stay on site, unless somebody wants to extract the paper scans as a separate upload.
-
Previous version on site was 62 pages fiche, 6 paper
-
Time to fill in Better-Standard-Nedor-Pines-Wise's America's Best section: first up: #15, a 32-pager with only 3 stories
-
Time to fill in Better-Standard-Nedor-Pines-Wise's America's Best section: first up: #15, a 32-pager with only 3 stories
Thanks Len. This title has a lot of missing or incomplete issues, so the addition of #15 is fantastic.
-
Great!
-
Thanks again Len for it.
Geo
-
Over to Fawcett tonight: Master #79!
Not a fiche-replacement, for a change, but fiches would have been nice since my copy is missing the cf (4 Nyoka pgs)
-
A couple of FamFunnies this evening:
an early issue: #26!, and a completed Flint issue: #102 (old partial removed!).
Both Buck-free as usual. Also, 26 has no ifc/ibc
-
I see them Len, thanks.
Geo
-
One more tonight:
Orbit's Westerner #22 - c2c, with a Krigstein story
-
OK Len, thanks.
Geo
-
One month into Spring, and it's still snowing and still below zero (overnight low)!
So, to warm things up, how about the final incomplete America's Best, now complete!: #14
I have one more to do... a fiche-replacement, speaking of which...
the fiches of 10,11,&28 can be dumped... all have been 'papered'; 31 maybe too, but it has some 'paper'
-
So that means we now have a Complete Series!
-
Thanks for all the work you put into on these Len.
I'll look into removing the fiche copies if Yoc doesn't
before me.
Thanks again Len.
Geo
-
Thanks Len!
Working on the clean-up now.
-
So, to warm things up, how about the final incomplete America's Best, now complete!: #14
I have one more to do... a fiche-replacement
Thanks for putting up America's Best 014. Great issue. Looking forward to the final fiche replacement. :)
-
But first, a trip into the jungle for lucky Wambi #13!
-
Thanks again Len.
Geo
-
Attaway! I'd hate for Wambi to be a zombie, though...
-
Wambi the zombie... might be a good strip...
But, tonight it's back to Fawcett-fiche-replacementland for Cap Marvel Jr 18!
from a coverless, so fc+bc from HAG, and dm's fiche lives on in the ifc+ibc
-
Thanks Len for another update.
Fiche scan taken care of.
Geo
-
Tonight (or this morning; or this afternoon; or this evening... depending on where you are on this spinning ball of gas, water and dirt)...
an addition to a corner of dcm that I rarely visit: Columbia comics... it's Big Shot #81!
-
First up tonight, a couple of Buck-less Famous Funnies: 48 & 136!
-
and last up tonight, the 2nd-last missing Lone Rider: #12!
-
And back over to fawcett-fiche-replacement-land for something a little different:
Nickel Comics #4! (All in color for a nickel?)
(also removable: fiche #2, replaced by 'paper', um, 2 years and 2 months ago) ;)
-
Done, thanks Len!
-
Tonight, the end of my America's Best trilogy: #17! (fiche-replacement)
-
Thanks Len, fiche removed as well.
-
Mayday! Mayday! It's the end of Dollman!
**********************************
Yes, for May 1, it's the last (& final!) missing Dollman story (& Feature Comic) - Feature 74! (c2c paper)!
-
Thanks for the "May Day" upload Len.
Geo
-
Once again, back into Fawcett fiche-replacementland (my last one for now):
it's Marvel Family 54!
-
Thanks Len!
-
Scan light, scan bright, first scan I up tonight:
it's Wambi #1! 64 pages -- all-Wambi!
-
and another Buck-free Famous Funnies: #49, also missing the outer wrap & the ifc/ibc/bc.
-
Thanks Len, you've been filling holes pretty good.
Geo
-
A side trip over to Quality for an early-issue fiche replacement:
Hit Comics #8!
My copy is coverless, so dm's fiche survives in the ifc, but the ibc is missing.
-
Thanks for the paper copy even with some pages missing Len.
Geo
-
The fiche-replacement express now chugs back to BetterStandardNedor with:
Thrilling #6!
but lots of fiches remain since my copy is missing the cover, 2 ows & 2cfs! (and hag has no bc).
-
Thanks Len.
We appreciate the fiche replacements, even if they are needed for fills. I know that means a far more reasonable price for buying them.
-
Enough with the fiche replacements! Time for an all-original:
Fox's Wonderworld #20!
-
Thanks for all those fiche replacements you did and this one too Len.
Geo
-
And a new cycle begins tonight with:
Fawcett Movie #18!
-
Yep, thanks Len.
Geo
-
I was sure I added a message here yesterday about my last upload, but it's not here, so...
upped yesterday: the last (& final!) Lone Rider: #2!
-
And today, a re-up of Fawcett Movie 20 - Ivanhoe! - now c2c (was missing the ow and more).
Done via my CP, so it's not on the 'latest-uploads' page
-
Over to Fox tonight for a fair-and-balanced upload:
Western Thrillers #1! starring such "bad men of the wild West" (as it says on the cover) as Velvet Rose(and her dance of death), Two-Gun Sal(blood-thirsty daughter), and The Striker Sisters(murderous farmer's daughters and sheriff-killers)!
-
And one more, thanks to edits by Yoc:
Famous Funnies 47, Buck-less as usual, and no ifc/ibc/bc
-
Thanks Len and Yoc for this one.
Geo
-
Next in my Fawcett Movie series: #10: The Missoooourians!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Time to start filling in the last couple of missing Nyokas:
tonight, #45! (current one is a shortened Canadian version)
-
and another Fawcett Movie (no-number): Powder River Rustlers
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Tonight, a short hop over to Harvey for a sad Hornet-less Green Hornet 42!
Only 30 of 48 pages (+cover) left: Kerry Drake, Dotty Dripple, and text, ads & fillers.
-
Thanks Len, always enjoy those Harvey's.
Geo
-
A minor upgrade tonight: Fight Comics 19 now has full-size cf pages instead of the small scans I had to copy from someone else's older upload (my original copy was missing the cf).
-
More Fox badguys tonight in:
Western Thrillers #5!
-
Thanks for your latest two Len.
Geo
-
It's done! The Scans of Nyoka chapter 63!
-
And we're overjoyed to have 'em!
-
Next in my weeks-long Quality festival:
the worst-condition one of them all, Modern 89... badly water-damaged, with wrinkles & color-bleeding everywhere.
-
And 2 more Hits (all this thanks to yoc's editing, by the way!):
57 & 58!
No fiche-replacements there, but you can dump the fiches of #s 8 & 30... both are now paper.
-
Thanks Len and Yoc for these.
Geo
-
Tonight, it's thanks to Loftypilot for 2 quality Quality edits!:
Hit 59 & Modern 98! (the Modern is a fiche-replacement)
-
Thanks goes out to Len and Dan for a paper copy.
Geo
-
It's great to have these Kid Eternities! Maybe someday we'll get KE #14 to finish up that run, but I'm glad to have these anyway!
-
You might see KE 14 soon (Boy 34 too)!
Meanwhile... another Fawcett Movie tonight: #17 (Rose of Cimarron)
-
Saw that and thanks.
Geo
-
First up tonight, a slim (32-pg) Famous Funnies: #132, Buck-free as usual.
-
Next, a pair of missing Hits: 28 & 42! Edits by yoc!
-
And, finally filling a crack with Crack Comics 32! (Edit by yoc!)
-
Thanks Len!
-
BTW, shouldn't we mark Nyoka as "complete" now?
-
Back over to Fawcett Movies: #7 (Rocky Lane - Gunmen of Abilene)
-
Thanks for a Movie file on a Saturday evening Len.
Geo
-
Well, then, how about making it a double feature: Montana! (Fawcett Movie nn), starring Alexis Smith and a guy named Flynn
-
A pair of Qualitys tonight: Hit 35 (first Egbert & Marmaduke), and Military 41! Edits by yoc!
-
And back over to Novelty tonight for:
Young King Cole v3n3 (more of Wayne Boring's Toni Gayle)!
[edits by Loftypilot!]
(I know it's on the JVJ list, but I found a cheap copy and didn't want to wait; I hope v3n1 gets done to end the run)
-
And, the title Everybody's been hoping for...
it's John Lehti's Tommy of the Big Top #12!
It's a 2-issue run, #s11-12, despite Overstreet's listing it as 3 issues (10-12). Many on-line sellers list the 3, probably because of Overstreet, but they can only come up with copies & scans of 11 & 12. There are Australian reprints that ran for 13 issues, so maybe that caused confusion somewhere along the line.
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Tonight, a Quality Crack fiche-replacement: #39!
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
Over to a section I don't visit much: Charlton:
first, it's some 1950's TV nostalgia: My Little Margie #2!
next, over to funny-animal superheros: Atomic Rabbit #8!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
A night of crime!
First, from St John: Fugitives from Justice #5!
-
and a Novelty crime trio: Criminals on the Run v4n1, 3 & 5!
#3 is a diff version, scanned from a coverless, so I 'borrowed' the cf from snard's upload.
-
Thanks Len for the "crime spree".
Geo
-
Time to start filling in the Durango Kids, starting with the first non-Frazetta issue: #18!
-
Back to my life of crime:
Prize's Justice Traps the Guilty (scanners) #16!
and a dcm first: All-Famous Crime #8 - first issue! The series was numbered 8,9,10,4,5 and then became All-Famous Police Cases #6.... (I couldn't find any reference that knows what title it followed from).
Edits by yoc!
Maybe a separate section for A-F C? Or maybe include them with A-F PC?
-
And now back to the good guys, 4 of them in:
Nedor's America's Best #9! - the last missing issue!
Edits by yoc!
-
Back to my life of crime:
Prize's Justice Traps the Guilty (scanners) #16!
and a dcm first: All-Famous Crime #8 - first issue! The series was numbered 8,9,10,4,5 and then became All-Famous Police Cases #6.... (I couldn't find any reference that knows what title it followed from).
Edits by yoc!
Maybe a separate section for A-F C? Or maybe include them with A-F PC?
When a couple more turn up we can decide what works best.
Thanks Len. :)
-
Love the Kirby and Nedor, so thanks, Len.
-
Over to Fawcettland tonight:
a fiche-replacement: Master #41!
-
Thanks Len!
-
Hey, we're back!
So..... here's Black Cat 2! (but 'screenshots' aren't working; the upload fails unless I remove all of them)
-
Next, another in my Durango Kid series: #23!
-
And finally, for tonight, another in my Fawcett Movie nn series: Copper Canyon!
-
I like Durango Kid from ME! Thanks!
Can I hope for more?
-
First up tonight: Durango Kid 29! with The Lady Packs a Six-Gun!
edits by yoc!
-
That she does! Thanks, Len.
-
Next up, sticking with gunplay:
Fox's Western True Crime #5! (a replacement, or not, for the IW reprint)
edits by yoc!
-
Next, for those who prefer whips:
Fawcett Movie #8 - King of the Bull Whip! - first Lash LaRue!
edits by Loftypilot!
-
Time to take a break from mayhem, and head over to the request department:
for darkmark, it's Boy Comics #34!
edits by loftypilot!
Series completed?
-
Thanks Len and LoftyPilot.
Geo
-
Not quite finished... one more tonight:
Dell's Popular Comics 48!... one of the early Martan the Marvel Man issues.
more edits by loftypilot!
-
Only one for Thursday a.m.: Famous Funnies 24!
No Bucky as usual; also missing the centerfoldl
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
First up for Fri a.m.:
Exciting Comics 53! (fiche-replacement)
(edits by loftypilot!)
-
Next, an upgrade of my Popular 48: the missing 6 pages have been supplied by dell4c, so it's now c2c! (uploaded via my CP, so it's not on the 'latest uploads' list)
-
Finally, it's Kid Eternity 14! (hi, dm!)
Series complete?
-
Thanks Len.
We still need a few fiche replacements. I'm starting to see what Jon mean about the topic. If we mark KE as complete those missing paper scans, etc might never be scanned.
-
Finally, it's Kid Eternity 14! (hi, dm!)
Series complete?
And that retires the side! Bravo, Len!
-
I understand your reasoning for not marking a title as "complete" if there are still a few missing (or fiche) pages. However, from the perspective of someone else who has put a significant effort into tracking down the remaining few missing issues in a title, it's a bit frustrating to still see the title marked as incomplete (in my case, the title is GI Combat, and it's not marked as Complete because there are 2 inside cover scans missing from one issue).
Maybe there is a way to mark a title as "complete but fills/upgrade pages needed"?
Just my 2 cents,
Snard
I don't see the harm in putting that in the box, some of the fiche only series are marked complete with *All are fiche scans - if you have paper for these Please scan and share them!* or some variation
-
And don't forget Boy Comics.
I go along with the idea of marking the title "Complete but..."
-----------------------------------------
Back to new-scan biz:
It's gunplay night! First some modern mayhem in Justice Traps the Guilty 10!
-
Next: back to the old West with Durango Kid #40!
-
A change of pace with Master Comics 119! (fiche-replacement)
Edits by yoc!
-
Over to kid stuff for a special JVJ request: Patches #7!
Edits by yoc!

How about a #2: Atomic Rabbit! - another superhero dependant on PEDs (uranium carrot cubes!). Also a nicotine story; great stuff for kids!
-
Seems to be wabbit season...
How about a Red Rabbit #7! from Dearfield pubs.
-
And now for a #1!: Novelty's Humdinger!
with Don Rico's Mickey Starlight
This is a fun one to check out. I see Robert Crumb influences in it.

Geo

Go East, young (in heart) scanners!... over to Eastern Comics, for Famous Funnies 158! (fc & the 5 non-Buck main stories only)
(due to a missing zero the cover-thumb won't appear, but I re-upped it so that Preview is ok)
-
Thanks Len!
-
First up tonight, an upgraded Hit 50 with the missing cf added thx to Carl & the LOC!
I need your help to dump the old one; it was upped by yoc.
-
Next, the usual incomplete Green Hornet #9!
-
What's a night of uploading without some crime & gunplay:
Justice Traps the Guilty #66!
-
and finally, back to one of my favo(u)rite genres: circus comics!
It's Tommy of the Big Top #11! First issue! Series complete! All two issues! Time for a separate section?
I didn't think so.
-
From the Tommy of the Big Top #11 page:

Username: chuck006
Comment: Page 1 is missing. Only 51 pages.
-
Thanks Cooperway4 for the up.
Geo
-
Missing page no longer missing!
-
As we head into a holiday weekend (North of the border), I start off with another yoc-edited PED-enhanced 'superhero'-- Atomic Mouse #10!
Where can we get those U-235 pills? or uranium-carrot cubes? or Miraclo pills? or Proton-Energy pills ("the strength of twenty atom bombs for a period of twenty seconds")?
-
Next, some old-West gunplay in a pair of Fawcett's Tom Mix: #s 37 & 47! Edits by yoc!
-
And so, combining the last 2 uploads, it's a funny-animal/western: "Red" Rabbit #22! Edits by yoc!
Final issue! Don't respond to the inside-front-cover subscription offer!
-
And now the beginning of a new series of uploads: it's Novelty's Frisky Fables #3!
More edits by yoc!
-
A minor extra upgrade: Ghost Rider #1 now c2c, thx to Carl's ifc+ibc from the LOC!
-
Neat, Len! (If I can get a word in edgewise!)
-
Thanks Len for making it c2c.
Geo
-
The beginning of a series of FH upgrades:
first, Jungle 124 - 4 scans added: ifc + text pgs thx to Carl, and the bc from eBay; so, now 49 of 52 pgs.
-
Next, Jumbo 134 - 4 scans added: ifc(copied from Jg124, minus indicia) + text pgs thx to Carl, and a bc from eBay; so: now 49 of 52 pgs.
(I need your help to dump the old one; it was one yoc uploaded for me)
-
Done. Thanks Len and Carl!
-
Next FH upgrade: Jungle 125; text pgs from Carl & ad pages from Jumbo 135... now missing only 1 ad page.
-
and one more FH upgrade: Jumbo 118; text pgs from Carl & ad pages from Jg 108... now c2c!
(I need your help again to dump the old one; it's another one originally upped by yoc).
-
Done, thanks again guys!
-
Back to one of my faves, circus comics:
Barker #3, much bigger&better new scans!
[historical note: all those 5-year-old, not-very-large Barker scans upped by JtheS, were originally mine, done in a previous life (pre-freddyfly). They were all I had that I could contribute back then, and I was using an older PC & older scanner. But they also weren't c2c, so Jon completed & re-upped them at gac.
I hope to replace as many as I can.] [And where's #13????? It never turns up.]
-
Thanks Len for the replacement.
Interesting back story on it too.
Geo
-
2 Quality fiche-replacements tonight, thx to yoc's demon editing:
Modern 68 & Crack 59!
-
O-Right Guys, on a Star Spangle Day.
Geo
-
Upgraded/completed my Master 79 using the cf from dm's new upload
-
Yup, that was the point of it!
-
Tonight, thx to some pages supplied by yoc, Master 53 is upgraded -- now with only 4 fichepages! (also, a bunch of duplicates removed, screenshots added, etc); also a HAG fc replaces the smaller old one.
I need your help to dump my old one... it was upped by dm when he completed it
-
And a new Fawcett fiche-replacement: Cap Junior 55!
editing by loftypilot!
-
And one more fiche-replacement tonight: this time a Quality: Kid Eternity 13! (with ifc, ibc & bc added by yoc, who also did the editing!)
-
Thanks Len. Removed older versions as well.
-
it's funnies night!
First, Famous Funnies 56 - Buck-less as usual, but also missing the ow & ifc/ibc/bc.
And, Frisky Fables v3 n10! Merry Christmas 1947!
-
Thanks much Len.
Geo
-
The power's back on! (for those not in or near Toronto, we had a Month's worth of rain in one Hour, which flooded roads, subways, and power stations).
So... first up: Famous Funnies 126, Buck-free as always!
-
Next, a Fight Comics 27 upgrade - now c2c (except for the indicia)
-
And, continuing with Christmas-in-July, it's:
Frisky Fables v2 n10! Merry Christmas 1946!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Triple quality tonight!
An improved (diff ver) Barker 10;
and 2 fiche-replacements: Moderns 80 & 86! (edits by yoc!)
-
Been awhile since I said Thank You and it's long overdue.
Thank You!
-
Thanks again for the BlackHawks, always enjoy reading those Len.
Geo
-
Sorry, no more Blackhawks right now... instead it's Captain Future, starring in:
Crack Comics... #s 55 & 57! (both are fiche-replacements) (edits by loftypilot!)
Aside from one more Barker upgrade, that's it for my Quality additions for now.
Enjoy!
-
3 minor ups:
Fox's Blue Beetle 42 - only the Bronze Man story + HAG fc&bc, and 2 BB splash pgs.
And partial upgrades of Kaaaaangas 11 & 13:
#11 now c2c thx to Carl's ifc + text story, +ads from Ghost 2;
#13 now 31 of 36 pgs thx to Carl's ifc + text story.
-
Thanks for the fills Len plus the BB42.
Geo
-
Tonight, the next in my infinite Famous Funnies series... #153!
Buck-free as always, but also missing page 39-40... seems to be ad/filler/toon pages
-
Bravo, Len!
-
Thanks for it always, better then not having the book at all Len.
Geo
-
And the Famous Funnies train rolls along... it's #129! Rogers-less of course
-
Back over to Novelty for Frisky Fables v3n11... Happy New Year 1948!
Edits by loftypilot!
-
Oops.. one more Fabled Friskies: v3 #9, missing the cf (it was supposed to be complete!)
-
Time to add something to a section that's been empty since dcm was born!:
A dcm (& gac) first: an original Fox Ribtickler!: #2
-
And back to FamousFunnies: #130! (Buck who?)
-
Buck Owens! Thanks, Len.
-
Thanks again Len.
Geo
-
A first for me... a GM-replacement: Wonderworld 12! With HAG fc+bc;
but my copy is missing the cover, ow & 2cfs so I had to keep 14 GM pages.
(And I messed up my upload, so I re-upped via my CP... preview is now ok, but the main-page thumb is the ifc).
-
Bravo, Len.
-
Thanks Len, always nice when we can remove another GM from the site.
Geo
-
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh....
I know you mean well, but I lost a lot of work on the screenshots when my Wonderworld 12 was 'fixed' (and there was no 'preview error', so it didn't need fixing, only re-upping). If you need it fixed asap, please let me know and I'll do it.
-
Part 2...
I've re-upped the WW12 with the 'fixes' unfixed, and 3 semi-edited screenshots.
-
Got you, thanks Len.
Geo
-
back to the good stuff...
it's Crimes by Women #2! (should've been a never-ending series, no?)
-
All we need now is the first issue of Crimes by Women, and everthing will be alright. :)
-
These days, we'd need a companion title, CRIMES BY MEN, just to be PC!
-
Crimes aren't just mainly commited by men, you know.
-
I was going to suggest that they did exactly that, and called it Every Other Book on the Market.
It's an interesting point, though, that even today, women are still somehow a novelty. And for any active female character, you can pretty much start the clock and take bets as to when the woman will be revealed to not really be an independent woman or otherwise have some sort of womanly deficit.
-
How about Copyright Crimes by Scanners?
-
More Al Fago frisky stuff tonight: Frisky Fables v2n9 (edits by yoc!)
and an upgraded circus comic: Barker #5!
-
Onward Frisky Fables! - tonight it's vol 2 #2!
-
And a Famous Funnies I forgot to mention yesterday... #84 (4th Scarlett O'Neil issue) (minus Roy's cousin Buck)
-
A couple of FH Sheena upgrades tonight, thx to ads borrowed from Wambi:
#10 now c2c (except no indicia; issue didn't have a text story; bc is from real hag #10); and #13 now 34 pgs (also indicia removed; text still missing).
(I was able to dump my old #10, but I need your help to dispose of my old #13)
-
Done, thanks for the upgrades Len!
-
Over to something a little different for me; from the Comics Code era:
Black Magic v6n3!
-
Tonight, 2 early Black Magics to replace(?) b&w reprints: 8 & 13
-
Thanks, Len.
-
BM #8 - a long awaited pleasure. Thanks, lads.
Jimpy
-
And thanks to you for the UK reprints of them as well Jimpy.
They can stay up I think.
-
A couple of near-c2c upgrades tonight, thanks to fan777/LOC additions:
Jungle 98 & Startling 52, now each missing only one ad-or-text page.
(I need your help once again to dump my original Startling52 upload, as well as primeusuer's fix of my Jg98)
-
And one new Quality fiche-replacement: Modern 91!
-
A couple of Jumbo upgrades thx to Carl(fan777): 122 now c2c & 128 now missing only text story (and, one more time, I need your help to remove the old #128 only)
-
Done. Thanks to you and Carl for the upgrades.
:)
-
Tonight, 2 more Carl/Yoc-FH upgrades:
Jumbo 134 now has an original ifc, plus better-quality text pages;
and Jungle 134 is now c2c!
-
First up on an August Saturday night: with apologies to DM, 2 fiche-replacements: Modern 53 & Cap Marv Jr 45; edits by loftypilot!
-
Next, a new Frisky Fables for all you frisky scanfans: v2n3!
-
Glad to see all the new uploads, Len.
-
Finishing off Sunday a.m. with a pair of Famous Funnies : 59 & 113; edits by yoc!
Omitted, as always, are the stories featuring Will's younger brother, Buck.
-
It looks like there is a tiny mistake in the Frisky Fables v2n3 scan. The last page of the Tick, Tack and Toe story is replaced with the second page of the Myrtle and Jocko story (which also appears in the correct place in that story).
--Jim
-
Thanks Jim.
Len might be able to fix this. I can't.

--Jim
-
Len,
Did you forget the ifc on Famous Funnies #59? The page count is correct, but you scanned the cf as a single image so with that taken into account it looks like there's a page missing and it looks like it's the ifc.
-
That was my fault gang.
I will upload a fixed version later tonight.
Sorry about that Len!
-
Thanks!
-
Fixed version now online.
-
You didn't point out that they all had a long-lost brother named Steve.
-
Right... forgot all about Buck& Roy's youngest brother, scrawny Steve. They don't talk much about him... seems like he disappeared into the army.
Anyway, a few FH upgrades tonight: Jumbo 151 & Jungle 141 now both 35-of-36pgs (no ibc) thx to fan777's work at the LOC (some ads copied frorn one comic to the other).
And Jungle 114 now c2c thx to damaged ifc copied from Jb124 via fan777.
Also, FriskyFables v2n3 is fixed!
-
Thanks for the Frisky Fables fix, Fen...uh, Len.
--Jim
-
More friskiness:
Frisky Fables v4n1, featuring the ever-popular Buttie & Boobie!
-
Another nightly frisky dose: Frisky Fables v3n7!
-
Anybody else out there trying for the FIGHT Comics #18 and #55 at eBay?
-
Rangerhouse is a high bidder on them.
-
Tonight, a Famous Funnies trio... 111, 112 & 159!
all free of Buck as always!
-
A fixed version of 159 with the missing pg44 is now on the site.
Sorry about that gang.
-
One more Frisky Fables: v3n1, but no cf (2 Myrtle&Jocko pgs + text story)!
-
Next, anoher FH compilation: Kaanga 13 now c2c thx to Carl's work at the LOC + ads copied from Ghost #4
-
And the same for Kaänga 7, with ads from other titles
-
Tonight, back to Fawcett fiche-replacement land for Wow #49!
-
Thanks Len!
-
One more Buck-less Famous Funnies: #77; from a coverless, so no ifc+ibc.
And, starting off the Week of the Rabbit: it's Atomic Rabbit #1! Origin! Uranium-soaked carrots!
-
continuing The Week of the Rabbit: it's Dearfield's Red Rabbit #10!
-
Week of the Wabbit day 3 brings us Atomic Rabbit #6!
-
continuing The Week of the Rabbit: it's Dearfield's Red Rabbit #10!
Please, upload more red rabbit from 13th issue
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
Week of the Rabbit (in the Year of the Snake) day 4 brings you Red Rabbit #9!
-
And one more Rogers-free FamousFunnies: #144!
-
Thanks Len, always look forward to the FamousFunnies.
Geo
-
Week of the Rabbit day 5! It's Atomic Rabbit #9!
-
An odd addition: I found I had some old 'paper' scans from Wow 35. They're far from great (bad shadowing or stains), but are better than fiches, so I've upped a combo version (17paper/19 fiche).
-
Almost finished: for day 6 of Week of the Rabbit, it's Red Rabbit #3!
-
Thanks again Len for the up's.
Geo
-
Sad to say, The Week of The Rabbit now draws to a close with Atomic Rabbit #10! That also completes the run of 10 regular 32-pagers, but there's a 64-page 11th issue out there somewhere.
And, for all you rabid rabbit fans, I'll have a 3-day encore before the end of the week!
-
Thanks for all the work you did on this series Len.
Geo
-
yes, thanks very much for your week of the rabbit!
-
Crossing over into Novelty territory for a moment, tonight it's Frisky Fables v5n1!
-
This morning, the start of a new miniseries of 3 Fawcett Westerns: Lash LaRue 9!
-
Thanks Len for the last two.
Len
-
And now the second in my Fawcett cowboy trilogy: Hopalong Cassidy #11!
-
Yippy Ki Yo Len, thanks.
Geo
-
And, finishing off my Fawcett western three-pack: it's Tom Mix #5!
Happy trails!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
And now for a scanning hit-parade Western-extra (and if you know what I'm referring to, you're older than we thought):
Orbit's Westerner #20! (2 issues to go!)
-
A nice early GA Fawcett tonight: Master Comics #9! Unfortunately, ¼ of the comic (ow+3cfs) is missing, so I've borrowed from dm's fiche. Also, I could only find fc+bc scans at eBay and they're from a cgc comic in a plastic holder with some light reflections, so I included dm's fc+bc. I also added original art of page #1
-
(you can dump the Master #9 fiche).
Tonight, 2 more Buck-free (but with hard-to-see Scarlet O'Neil) Famous Funnies: 147 & 165! (edits by yoc!)
-
And, as promised, a follow-up to Rabbit Week: the first of a Red Rabbit trilogy: #13!
-
Tonight, part 2 of my Red Rabbit three-pack: #17!
-
A Wednesday A.M. extra: 2 more pages added to Jungle 124 (from the LOC)... now missing only an internal ad page.
-
D'oh! Sorry Len. I've sent you the last ad page for 124 in an email.
-
Ok... I'll fix&up it later tonight.
Meanwhile... my Rabbit festival is over (no cheering, please!) with Red Rabbit 18!
(The next Year of the Rabbit is 2023, but I won't wait that long to get more Reds)
-
2 modest upgrades done thx to the LOC gang: Jungle 124 & Jumbo 128 now c2c;
and Plas 25 c2c'd thx to JonThe Scanner (with brightened pagescans)
-
Thanks Guys for the work on these.
Geo
-
3 more FH ad-upgrades:
Jungle 149 now 34 (instead of 31) pgs, with ads copied from Jumbo159 (&screenshots added). Still missing the text story.
Need help to remove the old one; thx!
Jumbo 142 now 50 (instead of 43) pgs (& screenshots added): bc from hag & ads from Jungle132. Still no txt. Since the ifc is copied too, the indicia are removed.
Oldie is dumped!
and Jungle 101 now 50 (instead of 47) pgs (& screenshots added; also filenames updated); ifc/ibc/bc copied from Jumbo111. Still no txt. Since the ifc is copied, the indicia are removed.
Oldie is dumped!
-
Thanks for the upgrades Len!
-
Jumbo 142 now 50 (instead of 43) pgs (& screenshots added): bc from hag & ads from Jungle132. Still no txt. Since the ifc is copied too, the indicia are removed.
Oldie is dumped!
I do see the additional pages. My question is how was it verified that the ifc, for example, was indeed the correct ifc? I presume that no actual copy of the comic was available otherwise we'd have the indicia. I've done this in the past when a HAG scan of the cover has clear show-thru of the ifc so that the ad can be recognized and "stolen" from another comic already scanned. Is that what was done here?
-
As it says, all the ads in this case are copied from an issue of Jungle. This is what was decided by others to do and many other FHs (not just Jumbo/Jungle) have been upgraded this way. Carl verified that Jumbos and Jungles 10 numbers lower have the same ads. I always check a neighboring c2c issue or two to double-check. The ifc's of course also have the indicia which must be deleted or somehow erased. Whether it's worthwhile or not to copy incomplete ifc's I leave to others.
-
It's Sept in the Eastern time zone! Back-to-school month!
So, let's turn the spotlight on...
Harvey Comics!
It's All-New #9, with Blonde Bomber and Black Cat! (and an early Joe Kubert story)
-
Love it!
Thanks so much Len.
:D
-
And an early start to Fox month:
Wonderworld #10!
-
Tilting the spotlight over to Fiction House for a moment, tonight it's:
Jumbo #12 all-paper! (fiche-replacement)
-
A bit more for FH fans:
Fight 22 now has 6 of the 8 damaged pages replaced by complete scans from the LOC;
Jumbo 46 is now c2c! thx to 3 pages from LOC & a bc from HAG (& edits by yoc!) (also screenshots added, and story-ID added to filenames)
-
Now, back over to Famous Funnies, for another no-Rogers issue (but otherwise c2c): #105!, with Mr. Flint & Ms. O'Neil
-
Many thanks Len!
-
A Fox upgrade tonight thx to yoc&LOC: Green Mask v2n5 (#16) is now c2c... ad&texts from loc & a much better fc from hag.
Warning: Rant ahead!
A while back, because I had announced it was on the way, I went on about an issue of Wonderworld I bought at eBay that turned out to be missing pages and also was the wrong issue!
Continuing that theme (maybe I should start a new thread? Purchases From Hell?): These were all via eBay and all described as complete:
Last week I received a non-PD from a major dealer (DTA)... 2 centerfolds missing, and it again was a comic with numbered pages!
Today, 2 packages: one non-PD missing 2½ cfs!
and a FamousFunnies #31 with 3 pages torn out of different parts of the comic (there was a 2nd FF in the order -#37- that is ok).
To be fair, the vast majority of comics I've bought from eBay sellers have been ok, and I always get the refunds (thanks partly to eBay's buyer-protection policies), but as I said before, what a waste of time in messaging back&forth and often mailing stuff back, and I'm still looking for complete issues.
(And it's not only at eBay... I've received incomplete comics from Metropolis, comicconnect & LoneStar, and others I can't remember.)
End of rant! Happy Labo(u)r Day to all!
-
Ouch, very sorry about the recent pages Len.
I'm some would say this is a perfect reason for CGG coffins existing.
-
Wonder if anybody wonders if their comics-in-the-coffin are Really complete.
Back to reality... it's Famous Funnies 104! with the same Flint pages as before, no Buck, and also missing pages 31-2 (last ISO page & Penpal page).
-
Thanks Len!
-
I can imagine most of these guys don't take the time to count the pages. I've gotten incomplete books from eBay (which was Lonestar) and ComicConnect. Both times I offered to trade for something of equal value, but they keep wanting the book back for refund and then start over. Of course I scan them before I return them....
A Fox upgrade tonight thx to yoc&LOC: Green Mask v2n5 (#16) is now c2c... ad&texts from loc & a much better fc from hag.

That's our motto: scan 'em & return 'em
-
Tonight, a Fiction House GM-replacement: Jungle 14!
Comic was coverless and minus the cf, and HAG has no bc, so the ifc/ibc/bc and cf are still GMs.
-
Very nice!! Thanks Len!
-
Back over to Eastern for Famous Funnies 90!
Rogers-free as always; no ifc/ibc/bc; fc from HAG; and missing pages 45-6 (first 2 of Sky Roads). The Mr. Flint & Miz Scarlet stories are copied from loftypilot's upload. A couple of Connie pages are dirty, as though the comic was dropped in mud.
-
Two minor additions to Fox month thx to the LOC, soothsayr(scans) & yoc(edits): Western True Crime 15(first issue) and Western Killers 60 (ditto) now c2c!
-
Thanks again Len for the two books.
Geo
-
Last night: Famous Funnies 31! but 3 pages torn out (details on the download page).
Also, something went wrong with the upload, so I re-upped it via my CP which fixed Preview, but as usual it didn't fix the cover thumb which is still blank.
-
Turning the spotlight over to HolyOke: it's Crash #1!
fc+bc thanks to the old HAG, and ifc+ibc from the old Fiche.
-
You're doing great, Len. Thanks.
-
Very nice, thanks Len!
-
Thanks, gang!
And now back to Buck-less Famous Funnies: #69! (no ifc,ibc)
-
Tonight, an early no-Buck Famous Funnies: #33! Otherwise, it's complete!
-
Next, yet another in my never-ending BuckRogers-less Famous Funnies series: #63! Also missing ifc&ibc (fc+bc from HAG)
-
Thanks Len!
-
Taking a break from FamFunnies...
Tonight, for the last day of summer :'( ... it's a fiche-replacement that I've wanted to get for a Long time:
Feature Comics 66!
Now, all Dollman stories after #40 are paper!
-
Nice one Len!
-
And back over to Famous Funnies for #92! Buck removed, and Flint copied from dsda's upload.
-
Thanks Len, I've downloaded my copy.
Geo
-
And back over to Famous Funnies for #92! Buck removed, and Flint copied from dsda's upload.
Unfortunately this is a #99 with only #92 covers.
-
Sorry about that, gang. :'(
But, now it's #99(diff ver) with #99 covers!
-
Len's scan is better than the one I did so it should replace mine. The one I did was one of my first and at a lower resolution than I use now.
-
And another Buck-less Famous Funnies: #94 (guaranteed!)
Unfortunately, the text story is Buck Rogers, so that's omitted too.
-
Thanks for the quick replacement Len!
-
The Funnies keep marching along:
tonight, it's Famous Funnies 103! (no Mr. Rogers, of course)
-
Thanks Len, keep'em coming.
Geo
-
Will do!
Tonight it's a later Famous Funnies with no Invisible girl, or Connie, or Flint, or, of course, Bucky: :'( :'( :'( :#175!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Famous Funnies keep on rolling with #115! Buck-less as usual.
-
And, for Fox Spotlight, it's Jungle Jo #3! (missing 2 non-story pgs (4 scans))
-
Thanks Len!
-
A double-minor upgrade tonight:
Famous Funnies #104 now has the 2 missing pages (#31-2);
and also added are 2 missing Wahoo pages (#62-3) that nobody, except one downloader who left a comment, noticed (pgs 60-1 were duplicated).
I gotta stay awake during scanning!
-
Thanks Len.
I had an 'inc' note on my own copy but assumed you knew.
-
Spreadsheet updated too.
-
It's been a while since I added a new Novelty, so tonight it's:
Frisky Fables v4n7!
and, for all circus fans, it's Cross Pubs' Super Circus #2!
-
Over to Lev for an upgrade thx to new member Alortie:
Silver Streak 23 now c2c! Only the 9 missing pages (+fc&bc) are newly scanned... the rest is the same GM scan.
-
Many many thanks to Art for the fills and yourself for the upgrade file Len.
Nice to see he's finally joined the site as well. Art's a well respected member of the hobby.
-
A side-trip over to Fawcett-CowboyLand for:
Tex Ritter #3!
-
Many many thanks to Art for the fills and yourself for the upgrade file Len.
Nice to see he's finally joined the site as well. Art's a well respected member of the hobby.
Yes, I second that notation. Welcome, Art. Nice to have you here. I, for one, hope that you make yourself both at home and quite useful. Bonjour and bienvenue.
Peace, Jim (|:{>
-
More Famous Funnies: #114! Buck deleted as always.
I messed up my first upload (front covers out-of-order), so I re-upped via my CP, so instead of the cover-thumb you'll see a pg1-thumb.
Preview is OK!
-
I fixed that for you Len.
Thanks for the shares!
-
That's new, isn't it? I thought you couldn't fix wrong cover-thumbs :-/
-
Done at last:
a first-prize for everyone at DCM (& the former gac too):
Prize Comics #1!
no centerfold! Yet again, a comic that was supposed to be compete (from Qualitycomix!)... cheap because of a damaged fc... so it gets returned but we get the scans.
-
Congrats Len, thanks very, very much for the Prize 1 scans.
I can fix the auto cover thumbs now but it's a pain in the butt. But I can do it.
-Yoc
-
Back over to Novelty one more time, it's:
Humdinger #2!
-
Thanks Len for the "Humdinger". Hee, hee!
Geo
-
Back over to Eastern for Famous Funnies 155!, Buck-free once again.
-
Thanks Len.
I've got my version up as well.
-
One more dip into the Novelty bin for:
Frisky Fables v3n7! (another LOCzine you won't have to scan)
-
Thank you very much Len.
Geo
-
Back over to Eastern for Famous Funnies 109, without Buck of course. The Flint scans are copied from OE's upload
-
Getting far away from the 'toon stuff, here's a nice Ace:
Lightning #6!
That finishes the title, aside fromn a couple of missing cfs & some non-story pages.
-
Bravo, Len!
-
I hear there are some dupe pages in your Lightning #6 Len.
-
The missing pages are numbered 2 and 3, the dupes are number 10 and 11. (numbered on the bottom of the pages)
-
double-oops.... now fixed!!
-
Thanks Len for the quick fix.
Geo
-
Back over to the never-ending Famous Funnies scanfest:
#108!... Buck-free, of course
-
First up tonight, a new #1!:
Fire up the old black-and-white TV set... it's time for Super Circus!
-
Next, an upgrade to Jungle 36, now 99.9% c2c thx to ifc(indicia cut off)&ibc copied from Jumbo 46 (checked by fan777), and a bc (and a better fc) from HAG. Also, screenshots added.
-
Finally for tonight / this morning:
Wow 52!
Nice to be able to provide an issue that's not in fiche, and not on the LOC or jvj lists (but if you like throwing out old fiche, you can dump #49).
-
Thanks Len!
-
Fantastic!
-
Back over to 'toons & Sunday-strip reprints: it's:
Popular 121!
From coverless, so no ifc/ibc/bc... only a fc from hag.
And Felix is removed as requested.
-
Thanks Len, you've been working hard this month on theses.
Geo
-
Yup... on theses & thoses!
Tonight it's one of my favo(u)rites: a new, much-larger, now-c2c Ghost Rider 3!
(I've deleted my sad, old, pale, not-very-large, non-c2c old scan)
-
Thank you Len for the "Ghost" this time around.
Geo
-
Wonderful stuff!
Many thanks Len. :D
-
Time to go into Orbit!
It's The Westerner #37... one issue to go (#19), and it's on the way!
-
Attaway Len!
-
Thanks Len for the new direction.
Geo
-
Sneaking one in among all the Great rangerhouse/LOC stuff:
new, large Wow 10!. with a few scans borrowed from PS's old upload (see download pg)
-
And one more, moving the spotlight over to the Prize folder:
Babe #8! (c2c)
-
Thanks for the Fawcett upgrades Len.
-
2 minor FH upgrades: I've "c2c'd" my Fights 27&63 using the additional pages added by JonTheS (and screenshots added for 63).
I fixed 27 via my CP, but my old 63 was upped probably by yoc years ago, so I need your help to dump it.
-
Done.
-
2 minor FH upgrades: I've "c2c'd" my Fights 27&63 using the additional pages added by JonTheS ... I fixed 27 via my CP
freddy, you probably should have grabbed my last page and ibc as well
-
And back yet again to Famous Funnies Land for #134! (c2c except Buck, of course)
-
A late Fox contribution this a.m.: the final (and last) paper All Top - #18!
The front cover was damaged, so the fc(&bc) are HAGgish, and the ifc is patched by Yoc using fan777's fiche.
-
a random Hillman Western this morning: Western Fighters v3n6!
-
Nice Len, I too have a few of these (ebay buys) that I need to get up.
Geo
-
That was my only Hillman (bought as part of a batch of other stuff I wanted)
Tonight, a short stopover in Fiction House: Cowgirl Romances #12! (c2c US edn)
-
That's a good stopover Len.
Geo
-
And back to the section I may never get out of: Famous Funnies 62!
Missing:
the ifc!
the ibc!
two (count 'em, 2!) outer wraps!
and, as always, Wilma's boyfriend, Buck.
-
You jumped on my Crack 9 title before I even got here! :o
Anyway... ½ (¾ minus ¼) of the new upload is a new scan, and the other ½ is OE's old scan.
-
Adding to the Fox Spotlight, a c2c(except no ifc,ibc) Eagle 4!
I kept oe's jvj scan, and just added my 16 pagescans & a new hag fc.
-
And once again spotlighting over to Famous Funnies for #188!
Aside from being Buck-free, there's no ifc,ibc,bc.
-
Adding to the Fox Spotlight, a c2c(except no ifc,ibc) Eagle 4!
I kept oe's jvj scan, and just added my 16 pagescans & a new hag fc.
Thank you so much for completing this issue at DCM. :)
-
Thanks kind Sir.
Geo
-
Thought I'd take it easy tonight with a 36-pager, so...
it's Captain Easy 16!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Tonight one from my all-time wanted list:
Harvey's Stuntman #1! (joining the other 6 comics on the site with Stuntman stories: Green Hornet 39, All New 13, Black Cat 9, Thrills of Tomorrow 19-20, and Joe Palooka 9; so, it must be PD, no?)
-
For some reason Stuntman makes me nervous. I can't find it on the Copyright.gov site though.
-
Can we now move issue #2 from suspect to Harvey?
________________________________
Back to regular stuff:
Yes, it's Another Buck-free Famous Funnies: 135! Comic was badly stained all along the spine from rusted staples.
-
I'm still nervous about Stuntman Len. I'm sure I read somewhere they were owned by Joe Simon.
I'll keep looking.
Thanks for the new FFunnies.
-
Two Buckless Famous Funnies tonight: 122 & 137!
137 is missing the cf, but stories aren't affected.. it's the Penpals & Huddle pages and two 1-page strips (or an ad or two).
-
Thanks Len, maybe someone will have those missing pages.
Geo
-
upped last night during the forum crash:
the final missing Fox Fantastic: #21!... a coverless copy with missing cf... fc+bc from HAG. (note: filename is famtastic21...)
and a re-up of dm's fiche of Mysterymen 8 with BluBeetle & GreenMask replaced by reprints (see notes on upload pg) (sorry about the cover thumb, but Preview is ok)
-
Tonight's new frisky upload, over in Novelty-land:
Frisky Fables v2n7 (c2c)!
-
And it's spotlight time again:
Jungle Jo #1! which, as we all know, is the second issue, although it's also the continuation of Jo-Jo and should be #31.
-
Thanks for helping with the Spotlight Len!
-
turning a mini-spotlight on Novelty one more time for:
Blue Bolt v9#7! (now removable from the jvj list)
-
Updated this on JVJ list.
-
Can't stay away from Famous Funnies... tonight it's #60!, c2c except for Bucky.
-
Haven't added a Fawcett Fiche-replacement for a while, so tonight it's:
Whiz 17! c2c-paper except for fiche ifc,ibc (from DM)
-
Wonderful! Thanks Len!
-
next in the infinite Famous Funnies series: #170! (Rogers-less as usual)
-
a Quality upgrade tonight, thx to JonTheScanner: Hit 56 is now ctc!
---
http://digitalcomicmuseum.com/index.php?dlid=14699
-
I added a direct link to your message.
Thanks for the upgrade Len!
:D
-
Flipping back to Famous Funnies it's #168! Now without Invisible Scarlet O'Neil :'( replaced by, ugh, Bobby Sox.
-
Thanks Len, I always enjoy seeing a new Famous Funnies book.
Geo
-
2 minor upgrades:
My Charlie Chan 3 is missing 2 cfs... I've added a camera-scan of the 2 central pages.
And I've re-done the jvj/ont Blue Bolt 01 (http://digitalcomicmuseum.com/index.php?dlid=20724) again, this time adding a full-size 'paper' page 1 (I removed the small inc scan, the fiche & the reprint). I also re-packaged it from a .cbr to a .cbz to fix Preview.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Returning to another never-ending series... one that I put on hold months ago:
upgrades of my old Jungle Comics scans!
Tonight: #159 (http://digitalcomicmuseum.com/index.php?dlid=22911) (a complete new upload, not via CP) (text&ads not upgraded)
-
This morning... starting a brand new (for me) mini-series:
Durango Kid 41! I hope to complete the run within a few weeks.
-
Continuing the themes of yesterday, this a.m. it's a Jungle 155 upgrade (stories only)! (via my CP)
-
Continuing yesterday's new series: Durango Kid #38!
-
Thanks Len for your last four uploads.
Geo
-
Can't rest.......... gotta keep scanning..... when will it end??????????
*****************************************************
Where was I?..... oh, yeah... back to Famous Funnies once again for #061! (Rogers-less of course)
-
This a.m.: the last of the first phase of my Durango Kid series: #37!
-
Thanks as always Len for the up's.
Geo
-
Next in my Jungle Comics upgrade series: #79!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Thanks very much Len!
-
Old old & one new tonight:
my next Jungle 'upgrade': #130!
and adding to the dimming Fox spotlight: Zoot 15!
-
Very nice!
Thanks for these Len.
:)
-
Back to Durango: tonight it's #19! Two to go!
-
Thanks Len. Looking forward to them.
Geo
-
but I can't stay away from Famous Funnies for very long... tonight it's #110! (where's Bucky?)
-
This morning it's over to Harvey for the start of a new upload series:
Joe Palooka #12!
-
Very good Len, thanks.
Geo
-
It's the first-ever pre-Christmas Friday the 13th in gac/dcm's history!
So... let's start filling an empty Ajax/Farrell section with a comics-code-era jungle girl:
Vooda #21!
The section info is also empty, so you can add this if you'd like:
Publication Dates: April 1955 - August 1955
Number of Issues Published: 3 (#20 - #22) (numbering follows from Voodoo).
-
Thanks very much Len!
-
back over to Famous Funnies for #167! (final Scarlet O'Neil issue, although it's in the middle of a story)
-
Thanks so much for it Len.
Geo
-
Time for some education!
Tonight it's Science Comics #2! No, not the Fox superhero comic... it's from the Ace 5-issue 1946 series.
-
And, for a different kind of education:
Avon's Gangsters & Gunmolls #1!
-
Thanks Len.
And with T's promised westerns and one-shots it's looking like we'll be having an mini-Avon Spotlight without even planning for it.
:)
-
And one more Durango Kid: #32!
Still need 39 & part of 13.
-
Thanks Len for the western book.
Geo
-
And over to Better/Standard/Nedor for Captain Easy 15!
-
Thanks Len , whats next?
Geo
-
next we have Murder! (more crime-does-not-pay propaganda):
it's Fox's Murder Incorporated 6!
_______________________________
Unfortunately, I need help!
The control-panel function isn't working, and I messed up the first upload (I re-named the file at a bad time). I've upped a correct version, so Please delete the first invalid one.
-
Fixed.
Thanks for pointing out the User_CP problem. I've let CaptDJ know about it.
-
Best comic to have a Bruce Springsteen song named after it.
-
Back over to the Harvey boys (Leon, Alfred & Robert) (not to be confused with the Harvey Girls, which included Judy, Virginia & Cyd) for Joe Palooka 17!, the second in my Palooka series.
-
I'm back from the depths of no electricity & no heat!
So......
It's a cccccccccold, icy Christmas morning (in the Northeast)! So, how about warming up with Torchy in Modern 75! (fiche replacement)
_______________________________________________
:hug: And Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays / Season's Greetings to all! :hug:
-
Thanks Len!
At least your Christmas will be warm.
-
A short visit to Fiction House for:
Cowgirl Romances #7! (only #10 now needed)
-
Thanks for your latest upload Len.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year too.
Geo
-
The Fox spotlight is slowly dimming... tonight it's the last missing Jungle Jo... issue #0! (supposed to be Jo-Jo #30 until a late title change)
-
Thanks Len, jungle books are moist welcome.
Geo
-
It's a triple-header tonight... over to eastern for:
Famous Funnies 116! (Buck-free, of course)
-
Thanks Len and Happy New Years.
Geo
-
Time to dip into something new (for me): Quality cartoon stuff, with:
Marmaduke Mouse #6!
-
Next in my mini Joe Palooka series: #21!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
One more Quality fiche-replacement this year:
Kid Eternity #3!
-
And one more no-Buck Famous Funnies for this year: #118!
(note to ctc fans: this comic had the BR pages ripped out :'( )
-
Sorry to hear that Len, but thanks for what we do have.
Geo
-
To start off year MMXIV, a 'diff ver' of Master 52. Powder's old upload must be the smallest (or close to the smallest) full-comic scan-file (5.74 MB) on the site; and it's 44 pages!
-
Thanks very much Len. Powder's smaller uploads could use the upgrade for sure!
-
Another fiche-replacement tonight, from Dell:
Crackajack 27! (minus the 2-pg Tarzan text story).
The comic was brittle, especially along the spine, so there's a lot of tape repair, and several pages have almost no border at the spine.
-
And over to the never-ending Rogers-free (and gluten-free, and non-GMO) Famous Funnies for #124!
-
Thanks Len.
Are they GST free as well?
;)
-
Sadly, no. The $%(&#@# GST is everywhere!
Back to a happier subject:
the 4th in my 6-part Palooka mini-series: Joe P. #20!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Tonight, it's the second (and last) of my Quality funny-animal series:
Egbert #5!
-
Thanks again Len.
Geo
-
Thx to dsdaboss's new upload of Holyoke One-Shot #7, I've upped an almost-all-paper (only ifc+ibc are still fiche) Crash #2! by combining HOOS 7 & 10, along with hag covers.
_____________________
Since the CP still ain't workin', I need your help to dump my old Crash 2 upload (½ paper / ½ fiche). Thx!
-
Thx to dsdaboss's new upload of Holyoke One-Shot #7, I've upped an almost-all-paper (only ifc+ibc are still fiche) Crash #2! by combining HOOS 7 & 10, along with hag covers.
Beautifully done. Thanks FF! :D
-
Thanks Len!
I've cleaned up the Crash folder.
-
Tonight it's a Charlie Chan (Prize) upgrade: #3 is now ctc (2 missing cfs added)! (one flaw: the 2 center pages are marked up with green pencil)
(and I need your help once again to dump my old one; thx)
-
Thanks for the update Len, that's another one down. ;)
Geo
-
Thanks Len. Section cleaned up.
-
Tonight, a 'diff ver' upgrade -- larger scans of Wow #14!
_______________________
and with no CP, I need your help to remove my first attempt at upping it -- the .zip file only had 2 pages
-
Thanks for these larger scans, Len. :)
-
Done.
Thanks again Len.
-
back over to Eastern country for Famous Funnies 41! (Buck-less as always)
I should've upped it last month.. it's a Christmas issue, complete with Santa story.
-
Thank you Len for another FF book.
Geo
-
Tonight, the 2nd-last in my Joe Palooka mini-series: #16!
It's the only inc one in the batch... coverless... got an fc from HAG, but no bc (or ifc+ibc, of course)
-
And back to a series I've been neglecting... FH upgrades (mainly Jungle)...
tonight, it's Jungle #146!
(and, as has now become usual, I need your help to dump the old one; thx!)
-
Done.
Thanks very much for revisiting these smaller versions Len.
-
Tonight, a Jungle upgrade double-header: 150 & 151!
For fun since HAG had a Canadian copy of 151, I added the Can fc(one small difference) & bc(different ad).
(pls dump oldies).
-
Thanks Len!
The old versions are gone.
-
I hope this doesn't cause headaches, but since dcm has several Captain Easy comics, I upped 4-color (series 1) #24, an all-CapEasy issue.
-
Thanks Len, we'll look into it, you know those Dells give us headaches.
Geo
-
Finishing off my Joe Palooka 6-pack tonight: it's #18!
There's still a lot of needed issues, but the six I upped finished off the issues with Bob Powell's Flyin' Fool stories.
-
Finishing off my Joe Palooka 6-pack tonight: it's #18!
There's still a lot of needed issues, but the six I upped finished off the issues with Bob Powell's Flyin' Fool stories.
That's great news Len, thank you. Which ran from issues #16-25 I believe.
Geo
-
Another Jungle upgrade tonight, this time an earlier issue: #45!. All except the back cover are new, bigger & brighter scans.
-
Next: a FamFun-fubar-fix: my #60 upload is now re-upped as the correct #52, with #52 covers in place of #60's (Hag fc+bc; Greg's ifc+ibc), & all scan-files re-named.
Pls dump the suspect-folder's "MISS named" #60. Thx!
-
Thanks for this Len. Fingers crossed on the real #60 being found.
-
So, how about a new Famous Funnies: #37!... Buck-free & low-carb!
-
Something different tonight: ME's A-1 Comics #5! featuring Chas Quinlan's The Corsair
-
and, at last, one of the comics from the top of my want list:
ME's Manhunt #11!
with Frazetta's Trail Colt & LB Cole's Red Fox.
-
and, at last, one of the comics from the top of my want list:
ME's Manhunt #11!
with Frazetta's Trail Colt & LB Cole's Red Fox.
Believe it or not, I was just looking for this comic the other day (for the Frazetta piece). Thanks! :)
-
Thanks Len, alway nice to see a Frazetta's tail every once in a while.
On the back side Len, I got that book today, just haven't had a chance
to take a real good look at it yet. You know which one.
Geo
-
Thanks Len, alway nice to see a Frazetta's tail every once in a while.
Is that a butt joke, Geo?
(|:{>
-
To Geo:
I've re-named the 2 A-1 Badmen of the Wests & upped them to ME's misc section (the only change was adding screenshots), so you can dump them from the A-1 section. If this is ok, I'll do more.
Or, do you have a way to just transfer them directly?
-
Hi Len,
It's probably easier for staff to rename and move them around. We wont get the fun screenshots but that's the only downside.
Thanks for you efforts.
-
Looks like I'll have to re-re-up the BOTW #2... it's a .cbr and for Who knows what reason, the bc appears first even tho all pages are numbered ok
.
Meanwhile, back at DC++:
found 3 needed scans: Red Rabbit 8 (fc+30pgs), Frisky Fables v2n1 (fc+all pgs), paper Feature 32 (no ifc,ibc; medium large scans, so it might be good to leave the fiche there)
-
Thanks Len!
Nice catches. I've added the two fiche pages to the Feature 32 as an upgrade.
Sorry about the Preview problem. Oddly enough it seems if you view it in Opera it is in proper order but not in FireFox or IE. Why? You got me!
-Yoc
-
I don't know why i didn't add the 2 fiche pages myself; early-morning brain cramp I guess.
I asked Mike about credit and he said he didn't want his name attached to these uploads from DC++, so can you remove it? Thx. (gotta get the CP back!)
-
I think the inside of this book should be Feature 44.
-
Tonight, a very partial Famous Funnies: #22!
Missing: ifc,ibc,bc; outer wrap, & 12 other assorted pages (& Buck-less as usual);
leaving: the fc (2 smallish versions) + 44 pages.
-
Arrrrrrrrrrrrrgh. dsdaboss is right! Sorry about that... the 'paper 32' Feature is a copy of my very old #44.
-
Ouch!
I'm sure glad I didn't delete OldWayne's fiche #32! It's been restored to the section and deleted the misnamed 44.
Thanks for catching the mistake DDB!
:)
-
2 new Jungle upgrades tonight: #s 68 & 69!
Pls dump oldies, and also my First messed-up attempt at uploading #68; thx!
-
Done.
Thanks very much for these new versions Len!
:)
-
Back over to the far East... Eastern Comics, that is, for Famous Funnies 44!
But... it's coverless (fc from HAG), and 2 pages are torn out (but not affecting any of the main strips).
-
And over to one of my favourite pubs, Harvey, for:
Speed Comics #6! -c2c
(see comments on the download page)
-
Sweeeeeeeeeeeet!
Harvey needs some love on DCM.
;)
-
Lots of original art out there, so I've upped the Sp of 76 story from Pocket #1 since the comicscan is fiche.
-
I've pulled this down gang.
I don't believe we should be hosting original art only in files. It just feels wrong in my bones.
Until the staff decides otherwise I think we should avoid this in the future.
I've already talked with Len here off list about this. Thanks for your understanding.
-
Back to he never-ending Jungle upgrades:
tonight: Jungle #38!
I chose this one 'cause it was my earliest upload still in the section (and maybe in all of dcm/gac)... 4 weeks short of 5 years old (have I been doing this that long???!!!). Also, it was missing the ifc/ibc/bc, so those are copied from Jumbo 48, but, of course, the indicia are removed.
(pls remove the oldie; thx!)
-
Thanks Len.
Done!
-
Also, it was missing the ifc/ibc/bc, so those are copied from Jumbo 48, but, of course, the indicia are removed.
freddyf, Yoc, and others --
Do you know for sure that the ifc ibc and bc are the same (apart from indicia)? Have we seen these on fiche or via mirror-reading of HAG covers or something?
I really don't think we should be adding pages that are educated guesses. I have no problem with adding pages from other scans to replace torn/remaindered/fiche page scans. And I have done a lot of that myself.
-
I'm following in the footsteps of others who've been copying ad pages from other issues, and who've shown that issues of Jungle have the same ads as Jumbos+10 [Jungle38=Jumbo48, etc].
However, I do some checking each time near the issue I'm upping, so this time I checked available issues between 37&40/47&50, and indeed all ads are the same.
Of course, this isn't 100% proof (delicious!), but I believe it's close enough.
-
Good work Len, hopefully this will help on these.
Geo
-
The pattern was established by Carl who did a lot of research on it. I'm willing to go with the adjusted ifc being added.
If a real one shows up I hope people will send us a scan to add as an Upgrade for the book.
-
A new series of scans begins tonight with:
Famous Funnies 133! (Buck-less as usual)
-
Thanks Len, there can't be that many left now?
Geo
-

Of course, this isn't 100% proof (delicious!), but I believe it's close enough.
Can we label these pages a "____.probable.jpg" just in case someone has a real copy and notes a difference just to avoid any confusion. Actually with my own I have labeled them "guess", but I think that is a bit too unsure. Most of my upgrades like that though I've confirmed 100% by getting a Heritage scan and reading the show-through. (Snard and I used to spend evenings trying to see who cold find the the "ten points of similarity" needed to confirm a fingerprint identity. Ahh the good old days.)
-
I'll do it if all agree.
Meanwhile, note to Geo: FamFuns is only about 3/4 done, although about ½ of the missing issues (~25) are in the first 43 issues
New this Thurs Feb 13th a.m.: Durango Kid 13!; one more to go!
(by the way, the 2 current partial #13s could/should be combined into one download)
-
Hi Jon,
That sounds like a great idea to me. As Len is the person most likely to use these I think we can all agree on it.
-
One thing I didn't think of: I do add notes like 'fromJumbo48' to each copied pagescan, so is 'probable' really needed, or do you prefer 'probable' alone?
-
back over to Fawcett for another fiche-replacement:
Wow #51!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
One thing I didn't think of: I do add notes like 'fromJumbo48' to each copied pagescan, so is 'probable' really needed, or do you prefer 'probable' alone?
Personally I'd prefer "probable" as "fromJumbo48" might mean I didn't bother to scan this page as I noticed it was exactly the same as in Jumbo 48 which was already scanned but it really honest and truly is exactly the same original page.
When I used to be scanning a lot of .. well let's just say a company not represented here ... comics and scanners were much slower, I had a month-by-month collection of ad pages I would grab from. I typically only had to scan 2/3 of the pages which saved all kinds of time. I never noted this at all.
-
back over to Fawcett for another fiche-replacement:
Wow #51!
Thanks, Len! Any time you can replace one of the fiche Wows, it's very much appreciated on my end. :)
-
Thanks, kb!
Over to Jon:
'probable' it'll be! Gee, i wonder which publisher had ads filling 1/3 of its comics...
-
New tonight: Famous Funnies 127, Buckless as usual!
The bottom-corner is chewed away on all pages; fc is HAGgish.
-
Thanks, kb!
Over to Jon:
'probable' it'll be! Gee, i wonder which publisher had ads filling 1/3 of its comics...
Thanks, freddy.
And I assume your last question is rhetorical. If not and you really want to know PM me.
-
Continuing my non-Hillman February spotlight:
a Quality fiche-replacement: Modern 84! (one of the few not on the LOC list last time I looked)
(you can also dump the #s 75 & 91 fiches... they've been 'papered' for quite a while)
-
Done. Thanks Len!
-
Tonight, beginning a new 3-part series: series-ending scans!
First up: Durango Kid 39!
-
Congats to everyone for completing another title for the site!
:D
-
My second series-ender of the week: Super Circus #5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Wonderful!
Thanks very much Len.
:D
-
And, my third-in-a-row (& last for now) series ender: Westerner #19! (it's on the jvj list, but I found a cheap copy and didn't feel like waiting).
And if I ever have nothing else to do (ha!), I might get to doing some fills for the many issues missing text&ad scans (which would be easier if the CP returned).
-
Thanks Len.
Sorry about the User_CP. Patience gang.
-
Over to Jungle upgrades tonight: #35 - all new, with ibc from Carl since mine in a mess, and fc+bc from hag. And before anybody complains, the ifc & ibc are correct: the ifc is an ad & the ibc has the house ad +indicia.
Also, #149... I had started upgrading mine a couple of months ago but stopped when sooth's version appeared, but decided to finish it. It includes scans from 5 different sources!
Pls remove my oldies; thx!
-
Done, thanks Len!
-
Over to Harvey tonight for Green Hornet 39! (minus Mr. Hornet of course)
-
OK Len, one more down.
Geo
-
This evening it's a Fox spotlight leftover:
Wonderworld #27!... coverless, so fc+bc from hag, & no ow (but last story is complete)
-
Nice! Thanks very much Len.
:)
-
Over to Novelty for a change: it's Blue Bolt #4! (fiche-replacement)
a coverless copy, so HAG fc&bc and fiche ifc&ibc.
-
Thanks for such an early issue Len.
-
For my fourth series-ender of the month:
Avon's Jesse James 23!
(on the jvj list, but I found a cheap one, so here it is)
-
Thanks Len. Section desc. tweaked.
-
Starting off March, and continuing my spotlight on non-Hillmans: it's my fifth series-ender: Young King Cole v3n1!
(non ctc... the text-story page was torn out, so maybe we'll get it form jvj's copy).
The comic was in really bad shape... lots of tears & taping, and a poor cover (fc is from HAG, and bc is borrowed from Target).
-
Wonderful work Len.
Way to nail these titles down.
:)
-
My always-moving mini-spotlight falls on Fiction House this evening, with a fiche-replacing Planet 26!
with HAG fC+bc, and ifc+ibc from Wings (confirmed by the fiche); indicia, however, has to be from the fiche, and is patched onto the ifc ad.
-
Thanks for all your work on these Len.
Geo
-
Thanks!
And so over to Prize for: Frankenstein #11!
no ifc,ibc; HAG fc; bc from an issue of Prize; ow was damaged, so pages 1-2 edited by Yoc! Ad pages 47-8 still damaged (I couldn't find corresponding pages in other titles, except a b&w ibc ad)
-
A sweet addition, thanks so much Len!
:D :)
-
Tonight, a small spotlight on a small publisher (of which there are very many who'll never be the subject of a Spotlight :'( ):
Dearfield's Red Rabbit #2!
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
Thanks Len.
And you never know about small publishers.
-Yoc
-
And tonight my pocket flashlight shines on Harvey comics... it's Green Hornet #11!
The Hornet stories have been swatted down as always; sadly, this issue has 3 of 'em... a total of 24 pages.
-
Thanks Len.
Looking forward to the full version on CB+
-
Tonight, the next in my FFR series (that's Fawcett-Fiche-Replacement, of course ;D ): Marvel Family 12!
-
Tonight, one more FFR: Cap Marvel Jr 77!
-
Thanks Len for your latest.
Geo
-
A quick stopover in Novelty-land tonight with:
Frisky Fables v3n6!
-
Thanks Len as always.
Geo
-
Tonight it's back to my never-ending series of upgrades of my very old FH uploads: Jungle 46! (full new c2c rescan)
(done via the new & improved CP, so the old scan is deleted)
-
Many thanks Len!
Please keep us informed of upgrades. They don't show up in the Latest Uploads section when upgraded via Edit.
-
Tonight, my last Famous Funnies for a while... one that's not at the LOC: #42!
Coverless, but only an fc at HAG; also, like a couple of others I upped that I bought in a batch from one seller, the same 2 pages are torn out (33/4 & 49/50 -- one of them is the Penpals page).
-
Thanks Len!
-
Back to FH upgrades tonight: Jungle 32!: all-new bigger&better scans.
I need your help to dump the old one... it's not in my CP list. Thx!
-
Done, thanks Len!
-
Over to two areas I seldom visit... the Silver Age and Charlton Comics; tonight it's:
Texas Rangers in Action #11!... a double issue: 64 pages for 15¢!
-
Over to two areas I seldom visit... the Silver Age and Charlton Comics; tonight it's:
Texas Rangers in Action #11!... a double issue: 64 pages for 15¢!
This is a most interesting era for Charlton. These 64 page giants were, I believe, the direct result of the Atlas Implosion six months prior. If you examine them, you'll find artists like Williamson and Torres, Colan, Severin, Sid Check, Joe Maneely and others who were Atlas regulars. I'm sure that they all just didn't decide independently to offer their services to Charlton and accept their notoriously low rates. Too many artists were looking for too few paying jobs and they took what was available. Charlton expanded quickly, not adding titles but doubling the size of many of their existing ones. Any 64 page Charlton from 1958 is a potential goldmine of interesting art. There's about a 60/40 chance of you're being successful in finding something or someone really cool inside. FWIW. (|:{>
-
And thank you Len for this book. As Jim said about the artist, that issue you posted up has 3 stories with art by Al Williamson with help from Frank Frazetta on the first story. Al Williamson did more stories for Charlton in the western books they published.
Geo
-
First up tonight, a minor upgrade to Jumbo 49: 4 scans copied over from Jungle 39: ifc(indicia removed), page64-ad, ibc, and HAG bc. (all 'probables'). [upped via the CP-edit]
Also, pages re-numbered to reflect the missing pages: (still missing the text story & a TomDick&Harry page).
-
And thank you Len for this book. As Jim said about the artist, that issue you posted up has 3 stories with art by Al Williamson with help from Frank Frazetta on the first story. Al Williamson did more stories for Charlton in the western books they published.
Geo
That's Williamson and Angelo Torres, Geo, on all three of those. No FF involved. He was busy on L'il Abner with Al Capp.
Peace, Jim (|:{>
-
back over to FH upgrades for a full new rescan of Jungle 39!.
Again I need help to dump the old one; thx!
-
Done,
Thanks for the nice upgrades as well!
-
And another: Jungle #28!
(pls remove oldie... #39 too... they're not in my CP; thx!)
-
Taking care of it Len, thanks for the upload.
Geo
-
Done. Removed old 28 and 39 as well.
Thanks Len!
-
And another: Jungle 40! bigger&better!
and, once again, I need your help to dump the oldie; thx!
-
Done. Thanks very much Len!
:)
-
Barely made it! My 2 anniversary items were in 2 boxes, both held at a PO for sales-tax collection... I got there 10 min before closing :D
and now 104 scans are done and it's still Mar 28 over most of the Western half of the Pacific, so happy fourth!!! as I finish off my 6th series of the year:
Captain Flight 7 & 8!
-
LOL,
Thanks very much for these Len. I know Brian will be thrilled they've been scanned.
:)
-
Thanx for catching the dupe-page error!
Now fixed (via CP-edit)
-
A minor upgrade for Centaur month:
Keen Det Funnies 8(#1) now c2c! thx to soothsayr & the LOC. (2nd larger versions of the fc & pg48 also added)
(is Quality and/or Prize month anywhere in view?)
-
a one-night mini-spotlight on Quality (in anticipation of the upcoming Quality spotlight :-/ ) :
Modern 88! now all-paper! (one that's not on the LOC list) (pls dump fiche) (thx!)
-
Thanks Len!
Done.
-
thx to dsdaboss's cover scan, my old KeenDetFunnies #11 now c2c! (done via cp-edit)
-
Thanks Len for your upload.
Geo
-
This one's on the LOC list, but I found an ultra-cheap partial comic that fits perfectly with the partial-paper current scan:
Wow #35! (done via cp-edit)
Now only 1 fiche page: the index. I've added paper Commando Yank & Phantom Eagle &text &ads. The Mary & MrScarlet stories also need replacing during the near-future(?) Fawcett spotlight!
-
Thanks Len.
Not sure if or when a Quality or Fawcett spotlight might happen.
We've given Sooth a lot of work already.
-
I know... I'm just lobbying for them... gotta keep trying!
Great to see the Mary Marvels!
-
Back to FH upgrades... tonight it's 2 Jumbos: 57 & 144! (done via CP-edit))
...2 of my earliest, 5-year-old uploads, from the year 1B.D. (Before Dcm)!
-
up'd last night: Red Rabbit #19!
(should any small-publisher upload be listed in the Spotlight section?)
-
Man Len, you alway come through with something.
Thanks.
Geo
-
Thanks Len.
No, just those publishers I mentioned. The plan is to have future spotlights on others when we can figure it out.
-
Thanks Geo! There's lots more I want to find & contribute, but I'm slowly running out of stuff I like.
Tonight, it's back to FawcettFicheReplacements with:
Marvel Family 32!
-
Thanks Len!
Fiche version removed.
-
Finally, a chance to reverse things...
found at DC+ (it's only been there for 6½ months): Popular #52!
-
Thanks very much Len.
It's hard to keep up with things sometimes.
-
Forgot to add that they list the scanner as unknown
-
Now on to the first of my 2-part Spotlight on Quality:
National 23!
-
Lovely, thanks for these Quality uploads Len.
:)
-
Tonight a new Fawcett: F. Movie 14 (The Last Outpost)!... but no cf!
(another eBay 'classic'... an amateur seller who happened to find a comic and decided to sell it on eBay without having a clue about page counts... yes, I got a full refund, Except for my return mailing cost which eBay does Not guarantee; it's up to the sellers to refund it if they so choose)
-
Sorry about the trouble with this one Len. We appreciate all your efforts to help fill the holes in the collection.
Perhaps we will add the missing cf down the road from another source.
-
Back over to a Small Publisher:
Dearfield's Red Rabbit #4!
-
Thank you kind Sir.
Geo
-
Tonight it's part 2 of my 2-part mini-Spotlight on Quality (awaiting, as always, the major spotlight):
Feature Comics #25! (a fiche-replacement)
-
Nice, thanks Len.
-
Tonight, something a little different, as we visit a dusty old corner of the 4-year-old DCM where there's only one 6-year-old scan of It Really Happened! (filed under better-standard-nedor-pines/misc... although it's published by Wm. H. Wise) :-/
Tonight's addition: #4! (and #7 is on the way)
-
Thanks Len.
A quick check on GCD and it says this about the title -
Notes:
William H. Wise published #1-4 as surrogate.
-
I shouda checked that! Thx for the info!
_________________________________
Tonight, back to my infinite series of FH upgrades with:
Jungle 44!
(done via CP-edit)
-
Thanks again Len.
:)
-
It really got uploaded! It's It Really Happened #7! (no ifc,ibc; hag fc, eBay bc)
_________________________________
Now that we have 3 of the 11 issues, with more on the way!, maybe a new section?
-
Done.
Thanks for the latest Len.
-
A minor pair of upgrades: i added the missing pages to my FamFuns 24&26 from the new LOC uploads
-
Tonight: Popular 59!
Complete, but one panel is cut out (Masked Pilot title).
Starring Martan the Marvel Man, not to be confused with Mantan Moreland, a Popular character actor of the 1940's, best known as Birmingham Brown in over a dozen Charlie Chan movies.
-
Thanks Len as always.
Geo
-
I've completed (except Buck, of course) my old FamFuns 31, 40 & 44 with the new LOC pages. 31 & 44 were done via CP-edit, but I need your help to dump my old 40 (probably upped for me by yoc). Thx!
-
Thanks Len, I've taken care of removing the other #40 for you.
Geo
-
2 upgrades tonight:
Crackajack 13 now c2c thx to JonTheS. (cf+bc added) (done via CP-edit).,
and next in my FH rescan series: Jungle 33! (need your help again to dump the oldie; another one originally upped for me by yoc!)
-
Done.
Thanks for the latest Len. :)
-
oops... one more upgrade: my Famous Funnies 22 now ctc'd thx to the LOC gang!... a smaller download for those with slower connections.
(is the day when all 64-pagers are 100Mb getting too close?)
-
Sorry Len. Were they on the site?
I didn't move them.
-
looks like I'm losing it...
I have the 2 comics...inc like many others... I was sure I'd uploaded them, and was waiting for the extra pages to complete them.
I checked DC++ etc, and they're nowhere, so it looks like I probably put the comics aside and never scanned them.
Sorry about that! I'll remove my message.
-
Which ones?
-
30 & 45; when I saw the new uploads I went to download my versions to complete them, only I never did them :'(
-
No problem Len, you'll find them eventually.
Geo
-
Hey, gang! We're losing all continuity here...
I thought I'd scanned my inc FamFuns 30 & 45, but it turned out I never did. I guess I found out that the LOC versions were going to be done c2c, so I filed mine away unscanned (except for a few pages I did for myself).
So... please ignore the previous few posts!
-
Heheh, no problem Len.
-
Next, a very minor Jumbo 53 upgrade: ifc(without indicia) & ibc copied from Jungle 43 (which will be my next rescan), and bc from HAG. Still missing the text story. Also screenshots added.
And... it's another one yoc originally upped for me 5 years ago, so I need your help to dump the oldie. Thx!
-
Done, thanks again Len.
:)
-
More minor upgrades: 3 more FamFuns now Buckless-c2c, thanks to the LOC gang!: 47, 49 & 67. (all done via CP-edit).
3 more to come tomorrow.
-
Thanks for the FF's Len.
Geo
-
And more minor upgrades: 2 more FamFuns now Buckless-c2c, thanks to the LOC gang!: 57 & 62. (done via CP-edit).
-
And 2 more minor upgrades: 2 more FamFuns now Buckless-c2c, thanks to the LOC gang!: 48 & 56. (done via CP-edit).
-
Back to FH rescans: tonight it's Jungle 43!
-
A Chesler minor upgrade: ifc+ibc added to Punch 14 (from the LOC gang!) to make it ctc; also, better HAG-bc added
-
I finally got a chance for a rescan mini-project I've wanted to do for a Long while... my 4 Very Old (5-5½ years) Speed late-issue scans: #s 39, 42-44.
I only did the story pages; I borrowed text/ad pgs from ML's #39, and Hag fc+bc for all except fc only for 44. It also gave me a chance to add screenshots.
I did 39 as a regular upload, but was unable to delete the oldie (why?). i was going to ask you to do it but I see you beat me to it! 42-44 were done via CP-edit.
The last 3 are all Very brittle comics, so there's Lots of edge/corner-pieces missing. I have to sweep the floor every time I handle them. I figure in a few more years they'll disintegrate completely. :'(
-
Thanks Len!
-
Finally have a new one for dcm:
Ajax's Vooda 20! (first (of 3) issue)
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
a trio of Jungle rescan-upgrades tonight: 65, 66 & 67!
I did them as regular uploads (with new screenshots), but I couldn't dump the oldies... the 'delete' button on my CP page no longer works, so I need your help to remove them. Thx!
-
Hi Len,
I've let CaptDJ know about the delete problem.
I'll remove the old versions for you now.
-
Hi Len,
CaptDJ has fixed the Delete file bug in the User_CP section.
-
That was fast! Thx!
I can't try it out right now, but I should have another Jungle rescan in a few days.
-
back to FFR's tonight; it's Marvel Family 83! (2 old fiches need to be removed)
-
Done.
Thanks Len!
-
And next in my FH rescan-upgrade series: Jungle 63!
(but I haven't tried the delete function yet... I upped it via CP-edit)
-
Thanks Len, got to love though Jungle books.
Geo
-
Tonight a Famous Funnies upgrade: #106 now has the 2 missing cfs (done via CP-edit)
-
flipping back to FFRs tonight: it's Captain Marvel Junior 15!
(pls remove old fiche)
-
Thanks Len.
:)
-
:'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
Cancel earlier message about Jungle 63; ML has noticed that it only has 4 pages! I'll have to recompile a new upload, but it'll be a couple of days.
-
OK Len we'll be on the lookout for it.
Geo
-
Jungle 63 is back!
For the millions of you who downloaded my earlier upload, you'll need to grab this version since my first attempt only had 4 pages!
-
Thanks Len always up for another jungle book.
Geo
-
A minor Fawcett upgrade tonight, thanks to the LOC gang:
Spy Smasher 9 now all-paper! (ifc+ibc were fiche)
-
And a brand-new addition in the Canadian section:
Brenda Starr #6! (coverless, so no ifc/ibc)
-
Thanks for the paper fill on Spy Smashers Len and for the Brenda Star too.
Geo
-
Back over to the far Eastern for:
Famous Funnies 160!, Buck- & gluten-free as always (also low-carb, non-gmo, organic & natural!).
-
Thanks Len.
Is that HST free as well?
;)
-
Found at dc++: a 3-month-old upload of Famous Funnies 172...
Buck-less for dcm, of course.
-
Someone else posted that a few months ago. I've got it scanned, but will probably wait to make it my last FF since it's already up.
-
I found it by accident; I knew it wasn't yours, but I hoped I was saving you some work.
Back to my own FamFuns: now upped: #179!
-
And my last (for now) no-Buck Famous Funnies upload (an old one I forgot I had): #182!
-
Thanks Len for the FF.
Geo
-
So... it's back to my never-ending FictionHouse rescan/upgrade series:
tonight it's Jungle 73 & 74!
#74 is a rescan, upped via CP-edit.
#73 is a 'diff ver'... the original upload was ae660's, and all I did for my upgrade back then was add a missing cf.
-
Thanks Len!
-
and one more: Jungle 75! (again done via CP-edit).
-
Thanks Len, just gota love those jungle books.
Geo
-
and still one more (the last of a 4-issue mini-series): Jungle 76! (again done via CP-edit).
Next: 6 Jungles in the 50's need upgrading
-
Thanks Len, always look forward to these books. It's strange that it didn't show up in the latest files, but it does show up if you do a search for it.
Geo
-
Hi Geo,
It's because he used the User_CP and updated the file using Edit instead of doing a new upload via File Upload.
-
Whoa, Glueboy!
Yes... it's time for another thrilling episode of Red Rabbit!
Tonight, it's #21!
only #1 left to find! (and a few pages from #s 2 & 8 )
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
A 'diff ver' tonight in a series I want to fully upgrade:
The Barker #9!... bigger & better scans of a different copy.
The earlier Jon-the-Scanner uploads are actually my very first contributions to gac before I became freddyfly, and before a long-ago major crash caused the loss of the original uploader info. Looking at them now, I wish I could rescan them, but I no longer have the comics, so I try to pick up cheap new copies (and will we Ever get #13?)
-
Very well Len, thanks.
Geo
-
Since the upgraded Dollman 47 is my old upload with added pages, and with screenshots, is it ok if I dump my old one?
And I guess you know the new #34 upload has the ifc instead of the fc-thumb. Since it has no screenshots, how about if I add the new pages to my original upload which is still there, and you can dump the new one?
Nice to see better versions of 31 & 40!
-
Hi Len,
Sure, whatever you decide is fine by us. Geo corrected #34 but feel free to upgrade yours and I can pull down these new ones.
-
Done!
But don't dump the new 47!... I dumped my old one since it's not needed.
But, pls dump the New 34 (it was upped under my name); I upgraded my old upload using CP-edit.
Bulletin :o ...... a last-minute complication! ...thanks to Jon who provided the text page for #47! I'll download & upgrade your new upload, so you'll have to dump the first new one after all.
Fun!
-
Done!
You may now dump the first upgrade of #47 too.
-
Finally, something new:
Toby's Billy the Kid #1!
-
memories of the first Spotlight (on Fox):
It's Western Outlaws #18! (2nd issue)
-
Thanks Len!
-
Tonight, from a never-Spotlighted publisher, it's:
Novelty's Target #3! but: coverless, so no ifc+ibc, and missing the cf (one of the affected stories was reprinted in a Star comic, so if I get my hands on it, I'll upgrade the Target).
Speaking of never-spotlighted [my favorite topic], there's Quality, Prize, Fawcett, Fiction House!) (when I saw the new Police, Hopalongs & Winslows, I thought... at last!, but no... they're from a new uploader, which is great, but...)
-
Hi Len,
I can tell you there will be about a dozen Novelty books in our future but there isn't enough for an official spotlight on them. Feel free to campaign with Sooth for future spotlights. I hope everyone you mentioned gets one as well!
-
Over to Better/Standard/Nedor for the first of a cartoon trilogy:
Sniffy the Pup #6! (2nd issue)
(I got them in a batch with a 4th comic which was the only one I really wanted)
-
And a trilogy all at one time: 3 new Jungle upgrade-rescans: 52, 53, & 55!
(all are full new uploads; I dumped the old ones)
-
Thanks again for all the upgrading you've been doing Len!
:)
-
The second in my Better/Nedor/Standard cartoon trilogy:
Buster Bunny #3!
-
Thanks Len for another great book for all the animal lovers out there.
Geo
-
And now the last in my Better/Nedor/Standard cartoon trilogy:
Goofy Comics #36!
-
And now, completing a series, it's:
Atomic Rabbit #11! (64 pages for 15 cents!)
-
Thanks Len.
Title description now updated.
:)
-
Now completed, except for the copyrighted 'John Clayton, Viscount Greystoke' (or Earl of Greystoke) (or Lord Greystoke) text story, thx to Dell4C:
Crackajack Funnies 25!
(done via CP-edit)
-
and an extra minor upgrade: I added a much better fc+bc (from hag) to Cap Midnight 64, and screenshots and some extra info.
Pls dump the oldie.
-
Done.
Thanks Len!
-
A couple of major Novelty upgrades tonight, 2 of my earliest uploads:
Guns Against Gangsters 2 & 4!
now bigger& better scans, and now c-to-c!
I've removed the old versions.
The #2 had pathetic back page & back cover (they were glued together), so I copied those scans from a 4Most upload.
-
Wonderful!
Thanks so much for all these upgrades Len!
:D
-
Got a brand new one tonight, to complete a humongous 3-issue series:
Ajax's Vooda 22!
-
Thanks Len.
Site updated as well.
-
just a 'diff ver' tonight: my copy of Green Hornet 8... missing the ifc&ibc, like the current ver; fc+bc from HAG, and all Hornet stuff exterminated!
Also, using rh's new SuperMystery v3n3 (&fc+bc from HAG), I ctc'd my old upload (via cp-edit); page-scans are edited to fit in with the original scans.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Tonight, the start of a new rescan series, one of my favorites (all with Dick Ayers' Ghost Rider): Best of the Wests!
First off, it's the last issue: #12! (only story pages are redone, + a HAG fc/bc if available)
(and I need your help to dump the old one; it was upped by yoc during the crash of '09)
-
And I managed to finish off one more BOTW rescan tonight: #2! (I was able to dump the oldie this time)
If anybody's wondering, I'll be upgrading all except #1 (which wasn't my scan), #3 (which I can't find... maybe I sold or returned it), and maybe #9 (which was done later, so the scans are better than the others)
-
Thanks Len!
Old #12 is now gone.
-
and third in my 9-part BOTW rescan-upgrade series: #11! (story pages only, + fc&bc from HAG)
-
and fourth in my 9-part BOTW rescan-upgrade series: #8! (story pages only, + fc from HAG)
(I was able to dump my old #8, but I need your help to do away with my old #11; thx!)
-
Done!
-
and 5th in my 9-part BOTW rescan-upgrade series: #4! (story pages only, + fc from HAG) (oldie is dumped!)
-
and 6th in my 9-part BOTW rescan-upgrade series: #10! (story pages only)
(need help once again to dump the oldie!)
-
Done!
Thanks again for these Len
-
Taking a day off from my BOTW rescan series...
tonight it's 3 minor upgrades thx to Dan (aka dsdaboss):
the ifc&ibc added to famFunnies 69(along with undamaged pages 1&2); and GreenHornets 26 & 39!
<all added via CP-edit>
-
Cool! Thanks Len.
:)
-
and back to the Best of the West!
Tonight's rescan-upgrade: #6!
-
and my final Best of the West rescan-upgrade: #5!
(turns out I can't upgrade #7, but it wasn't as sad as the ones I've done since it was mainly a bhcomics scan originally)
Oldie dumped!
Now there's the 20-or-so TimHolt/RedMasks to redo........
-
Thanks again for all your upgrades Len.
:)
-
Back over to Fiction House rescans after a month off:
Jungle #10!
also with an ifc without indicia & a reconstructed ibc copied from other titles.
(and with lots of screenshots)
Pls delete oldie!
-
Thanks Len, done!
-
Beginning: a 3-part Jungle-rescan series:
tonight it's #57! (#s58-9 on the way)
(oldie is deeleeted!)
-
Thanks for the "updated" jungle books Len.
Geo
-
Part 2 of my 3-part Jungle-rescan series:
tonight it's #58!
-
Thank youi Len on these.
Geo
-
and finally, part 3 of my 3-part Jungle-rescan series: #59!
if nothing new turns up soon, I'll keep this up with a couple of Jumbos
-
Thanks as always for these Len!
-
New stuff has arrived! So, first up let's end a title with:
Crimes By Women #9!
-
Thanks Len!
-
And a major series completion tonight (but several fiches & incs still to replace):
Daredevil 36!
-
Wow, thanks very much Len!
:D
-
Bravo! And that retires the side. Kudos, Len.

Thanks, guys! (thx too to James Payette Comics)
And now, I go from a 68-page addition to a one-page addition!:
my Target 3 was missing the cf, but one affected story (T-Men) was reprinted in Crime-Fighting Detective 12, which I now have (it was very cheap), so I've upgraded the Target 3 (via CP-edit!) and added One Page -- the last pg of T-Men. Note that the coloring was changed... the villain was dressed in green originally, but in the reprint he's purple.
-
Back over to my Best Of The West upgrade series, although this time it's a 'diff ver' since my original upload was from bhcomics:
BOTW #1!
And, now it's c-t-c, so the series is now truly 100% complete!
-
Thank you Len for making those books that are not c2c, but adding the pages needed so they now are c2c books.
Geo
-
Many thanks Len!
:)
-
For my second #1 of the week:
Standard's Buster Bunny #1!
My copy has no back cover, but I found an auction with scans, so I was able to add a bc scan, and also a better fc scan since mine is damaged
-
A Quality upload next (not a #1... it's a #91):
Feature Comics 91!
[it's on the LOC list, but I found a cheap copy so here it is; maybe it'll save somebody some work]
This is a major upgrade of my earlier version that had paper scans only of Dollman. Darkmark ctc'd it with fiches. I copied the old Dollman scans since my copy has damaged pages, so you can dump the oldie (I can't; thx!)
-
Thanks Len, old version gone.
:)
-
For my third #1 of the week, I give you:
Sniffy The Pup #5! (first issue, of course)
[by the way, did you want the 'Ghost-Yoc' cover to appear on the new GR #7 download page?]
-
Thanks Len.
Sure on the GR7 as well.
-
And my last #1 of the current series: It Really Happened!
-
Back over to my Best of the West rescan series for #3!
[pls remove oldie; thx!]
-
Done, thanks for these Len!
-
Next, the beginning of a new, long rescan series, but first it's a 'diff ver', not a rescan, since it was one of the original Mar 1, 2008 'dcm' uploads:
Tim Holt 33!
-
Very nice, thanks Len!
-
A big one tonight: all 100 pages of:
America's Greatest #3!
-
Cool! Thanks Len!
-
And so it begins... my first Tim Holt rescan: #12! (2nd Ghost Rider)
and now with a hag fc.
Oldie has been dumped!
-
And thank you Len for the Tim Holt rescan.
Geo
-
Back over to my occasional series of It Really Happened!
Tonight, it's #2!
-
And back over to my endless FictionHouse rescan/upgrade series: tonight it's:
Jumbos 84 & 85!
#85 had a defaced ifc (blackened with pencil-crayon so that the fc image of Sheena could be traced). So, the fc scan is from HAG, and this time I added a clean ifc ad from Jungle 75.
(I was able to dump the old 84, but I need your help to dump 85; thx!)
-
And, one more M.E. rescan/upgrade before getting back to new stuff:
Best O' The West #7!, with the ususal Dick Ayers Ghost Rider!
That ends the BOTW rescans.
(and once again I need your help to dump the oldie; thx!)
-
Thanks Len for the rescans and upgrades, it makes reading the Golden Age books a lot more fun.
-
Thanks Len!
Old files dumped as requested.
-
Really got a new one for you tonight...
I've Really scanned...
Better/Standard/Nedor's It Really Happened #10!
-
Really nice, thanks Len!
;)
-
Next, a quality Quality fiche-replacement:
Modern Comics 76!
But as you may have read elswwhere, the cf was missing (was supposed to be complete), so it's copied from dm's fiche, which can be dumped.
-
Done. Thanks Len!
-
Major fix of Blue Beetle 35 now upped (& now with screenshots).
See my notes in the problems-with-scans section.
Still missing 5 scans: ifc, ibc, pgs3-4 & 47
I've dumped my old one, but you'll need to drop dm's upload
-
Done, thanks again for this Len!
-
Upped tonight: Startling 37!
Comic was coverless, so fc+bc from hag, and no ifc+ibc
-
Another Startling crossed off the list! Thanks Len! :)
-
Thanks Len for filling another hole.
Geo
-
Back over to M.E. rescans...
In the earlier Tim Holts I'm really only interested in the Ghost Rider stories, so for now I'm only going to rescan those, and if I ever have nothing better to do, I'll redo the rest of each issue.
So, tonight it's Tim Holt 14 with bigger&better Ghost Rider pages.
Pls remove oldie; thx!
-
Done, thanks Len.
:)
-
Staying in M.E. tonight... it's Undercover Glrl #6! (completing the series). It's an all-reprint issue like the other two.
I was tempted to take the complilation of the original stories currently on the site and just scan the ads, but I decided to do a full 'authentic' scan.
By the way... any chance of giving Ms Flagg (related to Hazel Flagg?) her own section? The 3-issue Ajax Vooda series has her own section and we shouldn't play favourites. ;)
-
Thanks very much for the new full scan Len.
But I rather keep the minimum at 4 issues for adding new folders Len.
Someone else gave Vooda a folder when I wouldn't have bothered.
-
Well, there's 4 scans thanks to the 'recreation' of #6
***********************
Tonight, it's Really the end of my It Really Happened series with issue #9!
-
Thank you Len and keep'm coming out of their hiding places.
Geo
-
Back to my never-ending FictionHouse rescan series; tonight it's:
Jungle 157! (story pages only re-scanned, +hag fc/bc);
and:
Jungle 162! (complete re-scan, +hag fc/bc);
and:
Jungle 163! (story pages only re-scanned, +hag fc/bc);
All uploaded via CP-edit.
-
Love those jungle books, thanks Len.
Geo
-
Something a little different (for me) tonight:
Crime-Fighting Detective #12! (fc from HAG)
Mostly the usual reprints from Novelty Press comics; I bought it to get one page of the T-men story to add to my no-cf Target #3
-
Thanks Len!
-
One more Jungle rescan: #137! (done via CP-edit again)
-
And one more Jungle rescan: #123! (done via CP-edit again) (stories only redone)
-
Thanks Len as always.
Geo
-
Tonight, my final new PD comicscan contribution (until I buy a new batch); the one Everyone's been begging for:
Better/Standard/Nedor's CooCoo Comics #13!
-
Finally, thanks Len!
:)
-
A very minor upgrade... I added the missing cf, supplied by JonThe S in his upload, to my original inc upload, via CP-edit.
-
And a full rescan next: finishing off my Guns Against Gangsters upgrade series with #3!
-
Thanks Len!
-
Back over to Fiction House for another Jungle rescan/upgrade... this time an early issue: #26! (also with a better ibc, borrowed from Jumbo)
(done via CP-edit, with lots of new screenshots)
-
Two more upgrades:
Jungle 119 rescan, with a better fc found at Metropolis (hag still doesn't have it)
and I've taken 10 scans from dsdaboss's new upload of Crackajack 33 to replace old fiche-pages and make my old upload of a bhcomics scan c2c-paper.
both done via cp-edit, with new screenshots.
-
And, one more FH rescan-upgrade:
Jungle 111 , with a hag fc&bc;
done via cp-edit, with new screenshots.
-
The Fox spotlight never dies! Tonight it's Western Outlaws 19, now ctc!...
Actually, it's Dan's original upload with the missing ifc+ibc added.
(now into our 10th month of spotlights... could Fawcett, Quality & Fiction House be getting closer? And Ace... one comic, that is... Four Favs #25)
-
Hallelujah! it's the end of The Saint!
yes... tonight it's Saint, The #4, which completes the run (except for #1's ifc&ibc, for now)
-
Thanks Len!
Updated entry.
-
Back over to Quality for a GM-replacement:
it's Crack Comics #25!
-
and a 2-page Centaur upgrade:
pgs 1 & 64 scans (from an auction) added to Masked Marvel #2!
[[[correction: a more-complete version is already on the site, missing only the ifc]]]
-
Thanks Len. I've sent you an email on this.
Love the new Crack 25!
-
More re Masked Marvy 2:
what I've now done is re-up my version, which is actually Dan's version (and still credited to him), with all of his scans plus alt vers of the front & back pages (and my screenshots).
So you can dump his 67-page upload, and everything should be ok.
-
Back over to the infinite Fawcett fiche-replacement series for:
Master Comics #32!
-
Nice, thanks Len!
-
Tonight, the first of a trio of Jungle rescan/upgrades - #115!
(#s 116-7 in a day or two)
-
Finally, an upload that's not a rescan, or an upgrade, or a fiche-replacement...
continuing the never-ending Fox Spotlight, it's:
Western Outlaws 21! ... finishing the series!
(by the way, my #19 upload replaces dsdaboss's... it's his comicscan with the 2 missing pages added)
-
Noted - thanks again Len.
:)
-
Tonight, it's the second of my current Jungle-rescan trilogy: #116! (done via my CP this time)
-
Tonight, it's the second of my current Jungle-rescan trilogy: #116! (done via my CP this time)
I just noticed that these upgrades are not listed in the latest 300 list. I don't know how many of them I've missed. Why don't these show up, and is there any way that can be remedied?
-
They don't show up because when you use the user CP, it just replaces the version already on site. You delete the old version and upload a new version in its place, in essence a swap
-
Sorry Jon, the best way to keep up would be checking this topic in particular.
Len has been doing upgrades for a few months now and he's about the only one doing so with some exceptions.
-Yoc
-
And the third of my current Jungle upgrade trilogy: #117! (done via CP-edit).
next month: several in the #80's
-
Thank you Len, looking forward to your updates on these.
Geo
-
There are many inc Frankensteins (Prize pub), including some Very-incs, but only one, #17, is completely missing... until tonight!
A special upload for yoc: Frankenstein #17!
-
Awesome, freddyfly! I love it.
-
Fantastic! Thanks so much for this Len!
:D :)
-
Back over to FH rescans for:
Jumbos 62 & 63!
63 was done via CP-edit, but 62 is a full new upload, and I need your help to dump the oldie; thx!
-
And back over to M.E. rescans:
4 Tim Holts now with new Ghost Rider scans (only): 13, 15, 18, 19!
15 & 18 done via CP-edit, but I need your help to dump the old 13 & 19; thx!
-
Done, thanks Len!
-
One more Jungle reascan: #96! (full new upload; I dumped the oldie)
-
Thanks Len, great job.
Geo
-
And one more Jumbo rescan/upgrade: #92!
and I need your help once again to dump the oldie; thx!
-
Done
Thanks Len!
-
An upgrade tonight (via CP-edit):
my Crackjack 38 is now c2c-paper: the 2 fiche cfs are replaced by LOC scans, edited to match the rest of the comic.
The full LOC scan (missing 3 ows & cover) is being worked on.
-
This is a rangerhouse book for the fills, not LOC
-
Thanks Len. Sorry I didn't explain the source better.
-
or I didn't read it carefuly enough; anyway, I fixed the info on the download page
-
error!
I upped Police Trap 3 to the misc Charlton section, but it should have gone into the Police Trap section. Can you move it easily, or should I delete & re-up?
-
Ah, I know what happened.
Police Trap #1-3 are not in the public domain. They were made by Simon & Kirby's 'Mainline' company before they were sold to Charton.
Mainline books are not safe for DCM. I've moved it to the Suspect area.
But if you were to go into Edit like you have for some others you can move books as well.
No need to upload it twice when moving a scan.
Take care,
-Yoc
-
Oh, well... I guess you'll distribute it in the next batch of non-PD's.
I can move scans in edit??? Good to know!
and so, back to normal with a new fiche-replacement:
Daredevil 31!
-
Finally got rh's new Crackajack 38 done: fc from hag; rest of cover & 3ow's from my old upload.
-
Thanks Len.
-
Tonight! A non-fiche-replacement Fawcett:
Master Comics #44!
... the only fully-missing issue after #6 (another you can remove from the LOC list - or not)
-
Tonight! A non-fiche-replacement Fawcett:
Master Comics #44!
It's a fun issue, thanks for sharing it!
(I had just recently finished scanning my own copy of it but hadn't had a chance to assemble the images yet. You beat me to it, but oh well... it looks like your copy had better quality pages than mine anyway.)
-
Thanks as always Len.
Geo
-
a quality Quality fiche-replacement tonight:
Feature Comics #23!
-
Thanks Len!
Fiche now gone.
-
Visiting Harvey tonight, and bringing a gift of:
Green Hornet 15! (but without 20 Hornet pages :'( )
-
and, as mentioned in the Prize Spotlight section, tonight it's:
a new, much larger, now-ctc Frankenstein #2!
(also perfect for Hallowe'en! >:D )
-
Back over to my never-ending FH rescans... tonight it's a trio of...
Jumbos: 135, 136 & 139!
(ads/text not redone, except bc from HAG added to 135).
I was able to dump my old 136&9, but I need your help to get rid of the old 135; thx!
-
Done.
Thanks for all your upgrades Len. Much appreciated.
:)
-
One more Fawcett fiche-replacement tonight:
Master Comics 15!
-
One more Jumbo rescan tonight: #120! (oldie has been dumped)
-
And one more Jumbo rescan tonight: #125! (oldie has been dumped)
Next, it's back to Jungles (in the #80's) & some Ghost Rider stories
-
Thanks Len!
-
Back to Ghost Rider (and more) upgrades (I should've done this for Hallowe'en)...
tonight it's Tim Holt 28 & 29!
(all stories only)... (I hope to do 21-3 & 25-6 in the next few days)
(I dumped the old 29, but I need your help once again to dump #28; thx!
by the way, you can also dump the fiche Master 15)
-
Done.
Thanks again Len!
-
and two more Timothy Holt rescans: 26 & 27!
Still coverless, but I added a bc for 26 from HAG; and still no large fc for 27, but I found a better-quality one.
Both oldies removed!
-
Next in my Timmy Holt rescan series: #21!
-
Next on the list of uploaded rescans: Jack Holt's son #s 22 & 23!
(pls remove both oldies; thx!)
(one more on the way soon: #25, then back to FH rescans)
-
Thanks Len, done.
-
and, finally (for now): rescan of Charles John Holt III #25 (his real name!)
(oldie is dumped!)
-
Yeah but it would be too big for the cover logo!
Thanks Len.
-
One more Jumbo rescan tonight: #81!
(it wasn't all that small originally... I was fooled by the file size... forgot it was a 32-pager)
-
Thank you Len, love that your re-doing these.
Geo
-
Back to FH rescans; tomight it's:
Jungle 86, 87 & 89!
Text & non-house ads not redone; hag fc&bcs added; #86 pgs 1/2 still sooth's versions.
I was able to dump my old 87 & 89, but I need your help on the #86; thx!
-
Done. Thanks Len!
-
forgot to add: you can dump my old "Jungle Comics 149 (34 of 36pgs) -upgrade #2"; it was rescanned
-
Got it.
-
Tonight, it's 100 pages of fiche-replacement:
not World's Best; not World's Finest; not America's Best....
it's America's Greatest #6!
-
Wow! That must have taken a while to edit.
Thanks very much Len. :)
-
I'm a devout believer in fast editing... my scanner does half the work. I do a 'preview scan' when I start a new comic, which the scanner then uses to automatically adjust brightness & contrast. Then there's a setting to automatically square-up the images. So I just have to do a quick trim, flip(if necessary) & save 'em.
This comic was a pain mainly because of where the staples are; many scans end up with no border at the spine, or even with a sliver of art cut off. I've removed staples before from low-cost issues (coverless &/or incomplete), but I couldn't from this one.
-
I've done that a few times myself to center a page. Removing the staples then putting them back in is not that hard to do if your careful.
Geo
-
Putting the staples back works ok for 32-48 pagers; 64s it gets tricky, but on a 96-page square-bound with pages that were also glued in?
Meanwhile, back at the scanning ranch...
one more Jungle rescan for this month: #135! (except non-cover ads & text); HAG fc added.
And, i need the help of the Great Wizards behind the curtain at DCM once again to remove the oldie! Thx!
-
Don't look behind the curtain!!
Done.
Thanks Len.
:)
-
Interesting book list there Len, I'll be on the lookout for them. Thanks for the heads up.
Geo
-
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm I posted that in the wrong section... I've reposted it where it belongs.
Upped tonight: Boy 10!
missing 2 ows & 2cfs, so only 48 'paper' scans + hag fc&bc (fortunately, the outermost outer wrap is all ads, and the cf has the text story)
-
Thanks Len.
:)
-
forgot to add that the Boy 10 is c2c thx to Rolster's fiche.
Tonight, another very-incomplete fiche-replacement:
Startling 23! 42 'paper' scans (pgs 9-50) +hag fc +17 darkmark's fiches.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Up'd tonight; Famous Funnies 54! Rogers-free as usual, o/w ctc
-
Thanks again Len, keep it up.
Geo
-
Today: a dcm first! and a #1!!... yes, it's:
Dearfield's Panhandle Pete #1!
-
upping the PPete got me searching for other Dearfield stuff and I found a partial Red Rabbit 1 - all of the cover & the RRabbit story only... now upped!
-
Thanks Len!
-
Two in a row! another dcm first! and another #1!!... yes, it's:
Log of the Sea Hound #nn!
The title can also be Captain Silver's Log of the Sea Hound, or just plain Sea Hound.
There's no number on the cover & no indicia; according to the gcbdb it's the first of two 1945 issues, and was followed by two more in 1949.
-
Thanks Len.
Sooth has gotten Captain Silver's Log of the Sea Hound 3, 4 from JVJ.
-
Up'd tonight: Brenda Starr v2n5!
buried, as always, over in Canadian Comics / Superior
comment: Canadian printings of US comics is one thing; pure Canadian comics is another; but Brenda is neither of those... it's an American strip reprint comic that continues from a US comic (Four Star pubs), and was not published in the US (why?). I'm not going anywhere with this... it's just an odd title.
-
This technically doesn't belong here since it's about the purchase of a non-PD comic that can't be uploaded here...
You can add Jim van Hise to the ever-growing monster list of sellers who don't bother checking that their comics are complete before selling them. This time it's a missing outer wrap... the original pgs1-2 were ads so pg3 looked like the first page, but it was obvious that the back page wasn't the last page of the comic. Count the pages, people!
-
Sorry to hear that, I've run into that too, also missing tears, cut out coupons, one was missing a 2x2 section on one page, ads on one side, story on the other side, the big thing was the book was graded as VG/F 5.0 and priced as such. So it happens.
Geo
-
...over and over again.
Anyway, tonight it's Good Will to Men (& Women), so...
Happy Holidays, Season's Greetings, and Merry Christmas to all, and to all a Good Night!
and Happy Scanning!
-
Thanks Len, and a happy holidays to you as well.
(http://www.sherv.net/cm/emo/christmas/funny-santa-dance-smiley-emoticon.gif) (http://www.sherv.net/)
-
^-^ Happy MMXV to all! ^-^ Starting the 2nd year of Spotlights!
I finally had something nice to upload, so it's sort of a New Year novelty gift:
the last missing early Blue Bolt: vol 2 #1!
5 issues (and a couple of cfs) (and a few upgrades) to go, all of them either on JVJ's list or the LOC list or both.
-
Thanks Len, Happy New Year!!
Geo
-
This is great! Of course, we need a few of the Star BLUE BOLTs, but I'm glad we're closing in on the Noveltys.
-
5 issues (and a couple of cfs) (and a few upgrades) to go, all of them either on JVJ's list or the LOC list or both.
Blue Bolt v4 n1 is missing & not on Jim's list.
-
Yeah, the problem with v4n1 is the LOC book is bound, which means the chances of getting it scanned from there is almost nil. Really just depends on what the gutters look like. Bound books affect the listings for Lev Gleason, Novelty and Parents along with a non-PD publisher
-
:'( I had v4n1 on my 'need list', but somehow deleted it. Back to the never-ending search!
-
Back to rescans... the first of 2015 are also the last of Fiction House that I can do:
Jungles 82,83,84!
-
Thanks for the updates on them Len, they're looking real good.
Geo
-
... except for one page... :'( I messed up the very last rescan -- pg 47 of Jungle 84 was duplicated & 48 was missing...
Now fixed! ;D
-
Thanks Len.
A direct link to the missing page is here -
http://tinyurl.com/q6y85j5
-
Back to the year-old, very first 'spotlight:' on Fox!
It's the last completely-missing jungle-Zoot issue: 13A! (although we're still missing Rulah 27).
By the way...
There's a Lot of old commentary under 14B from jrc3d that needs to be edited, or eliminated. At the time, dcm only had the one #14, and that's how it was numbered.
jrc3d takes a lot of space to explain why it's #16, and not #14, and it's obvious he didn't know there were two 14's (technically, 14B is the 16th issue, but there's a later real #16).
14A is the one reprinted in Jungle Adventures #12; and, of course, it's missing the first Rulah page that was originally on the ifc.
-
Thanks Len and also for the update info on 14A and b.
Geo
-
Wow, very nice!!
Thanks for sharing this Len, love it!
Taken care of the comments as well.
-
Don't everybody faint... I've uploaded a text story!!! :D
----------------------------------------------------------------
To be exact, it's a ctc version of Tim Holt 20. The original uplaod by 'guest user' was missing it... I re-upped the original scan with the text added, so you can dump the oldie.
I might do my whole copy some day since the old uplaod, despite being a huge file for a 36-pager, is actually not all that large... it's just poorly compressed.
-
Thanks Len.
Sadly the file names were missing leading zeroes so I've uploaded a fixed version. But it's great to see this c2c.
-
Tonight, :o I've uploaded a whopping 7 pages!
One page is for an upgrade to my Wonderworld 27... it has no ow, but I added a reasonably decent page 1 (from an eBay auction); unfortunately it's a tilted camera pic. (uploaded via my CP).
The other six are for dm's old Whiz 38 fiche... it now has HAG fc+bc, and a paper outer wrap!
You can dump the oldie, and also his older Whiz 35 fiche which was replaced by his 'improved' fiche, although I'll be upping a paper one asap, so when that's done you could dump both fiche 35s at once.
-
Thanks Len. I'll leave the 35 for now.
-
Continuing my one-page-at-a-time theme...
tonight it's the missing ifc from Rulah 26 (first story page!)... and I took the opportunity to get a much better fc from HAG plus a bc.
(since there were no screenshots originally, I did a full new upload and deleted the oldie)
-
Thanks Len, always a pleasure to get these updates.
Geo
-
Time for a Whiz!
It's issue #35! now almost all-paper, with only the ifc&ibc still fiches (from dm). Maybe I'll check out other Fawcetts from the same month some day for identical 'paper' ifc/ibcs.
2 old fichescans can be dumped.
-
Done.
Thanks Len.
:)
-
freddy -- I put the ifc ibc into your FTP folder. Found them in the contemporary Cap Marvel.
-
Thanks, Jon! I'll up a new version (via my CP) tonight.
-Len
-
Thanks Guys, great job on working together on it.
Geo
-
At last, back to FH rescans:
today it's Fight #2!
I kept the original coverscan which had an SM Iger autograph, but added a better HAGScan.
(oldie is dumped!)
-
Thanks for the upgraded book Len.
Geo
-
How about another one?
Tonight it's Sheena (Queen o' the Jungle) #16! (only the stories redone, and HAG fc added)
and I need your help to dump the oldie; thx!
-
Done, thanks Len!
-
Next on the FH rescan hit parade:
Kaänga 10! (none at HAG so I redid my damaged fc)
-
Thanks Len, looks great.
Geo
-
And next on the FH rescan hit parade:
Kaänga 19! (and again none at HAG so I redid my damaged fc)
Oldie is dumped!
-
Thanks Len. I'm surprised when I can't find a front cover for a book, I'd think at least one copy had gone through by this time.
Geo
-
a 4-scan upgrade tonight... 'paper' scans of the fc (2 versions), bc, pages 1 & 64 (from eBay) replacing the b&w fiches of Jumbo 9!
-
Thanks Len. Fingers crossed the early Jumbos get scanned some day!
-
Starting a new series of FH rescan/upgrades tonight... it's a lone Rangers: #51!
(I need your help once again to dump the oldie; thx!)
-
Another upgrade, thanks Len, keep 'em coming.
Geo
-
OK... then here's another:
new rescan of Rangers 62! (stories only + HAG fc)
[oldie is dump'd!]
-
Thanks Len for knocking another one out.
Geo
-
continuing on... tonight it's Rangers 56 redone! (stories, + HAG fc&bc)
-
Thanks again Len.
Geo
-
and still continuing on... tonight it's Rangers 47 redone! (probably my worst early Rangers upload) (now with a new HAG fc, & new scans of everything else except the ibc/bc).
Oldie is dumped!
-
Thanks Len!
-
and still continuing on... tonight it's Rangers 58 redone! (with new scans of the fc & story pages).
Oldie is dumped!
-
Thanks Len, another down.
Geo
-
and one more... tonight it's Rangers 59 redone! (with new scans of the fc & story pages).
Oldie is dumped!
-
Thanks Len, another one down.

Back over to Kaanga: #1 now rescanned! and with the missing ibc added, copied from a Fight ('prob')
-
Thanks Len, always a pleasure to see these as an update.
Geo
-
A couple of Populars upped recently -- 20(Annie removed) & 37 (no cf), found at DC++ thanks to Snard & Bluejeff
-
Thanks Guys for your hard work.

The freddyfly scanfamily is proud to announce the arrival of two new Boys!
Tonight is the first public appearance of #23! (born with a cover, but unfortunately lost it, so its inside-covers are borrowed fiches, and the front & back were supplied by the old HAG).
The other Boy is somewhat shy and will appear in a few days.
-
Nice, thanks Len!
-
And tonight it's Boy #28's turn! but only the stories are now 'paper' (& hag fc+bc)... the 863 pages of ads are still fiches.
You can dump the old fiche (#23 too)!
-
Done.
Thanks again Len.
:)
-
And tonight it's Boy #28's turn! but only the stories are now 'paper' (& hag fc+bc)... the 863 pages of ads are still fiches.
You can dump the old fiche (#23 too)!
Wow that's a big comic and a lot of ad pages. I can't even figure out what it's a typo for. :-)
-
... the 863 pages of ads are still fiches.
That's in metric Jon.
;)
-
Back over at last to FH rescans... tonight, the first of my last 3 Rangers redos: #49! (30 & 53 will be the other 2). Oldie is dumped.
Minor fun note... I like adding a comment in the description about how long ago I upped the first scan, like 'over 4 years ago'...
and I Really like it when something Perfect happens completely by accident... today (EST) it's March 20, and it turned out my original upload of Rangers 49 was... March 20, 2009! (no, I didn't have a clue when I was doing the rescan)
And it's the first day of Spring... Winter's over! (but don't look at the thermometer). So, happy Spring to all! ;D ^-^ :o 8)
-
Ha! That is a fun coincidence!
Thanks again for all your upgrades Len.
:D
-
Thanks for the upgrades Len. I do enjoy the larger scans.
First Day of spring, yea.... however :D I'm watching snow fall outside of our window :-\
-
Rangers 53 now redone! (all stories only + hag fc)
oldie is dumped
-
I certainly appreciate the bigger and better scans. One question: why not do them CtC while you are at it? Doing stories only leaves 'em incomplete, with someone else (possibly at different resolution) having to do fills later. I suppose that scanning ads and text pages may seem like a waste of time, but they do add context and a feel for the whole comic book.
-
Hi Poz.
Freddy here isn't a big fan of the ads or filler. His first uploads way way back didn't have them at all. So getting them this way is certainly better than none right?
Thanks for the latest Len.
:)
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Thanks for the defense! There's a large batch of, for example, Westerners I did without Any non-story pages that I'll make c2c when I rescan someday, but I won't redo ad/text pages that I feel are good enough as is, unless there's only very few of them, which brings me to...
Rangers #30! a c2c rescan to end my Rangers rescan series.
I also have a bunch of Kaangas to redo (later), and that'll end all my FH rescan series, although there are a few Jumbo/Jungles needing upgrades that I might buy if I find cheap ones.
Meanwhile, I want to upgrade my TimHolt/Redmasks next.
-
Smashing work Len, thanks for these.
Look forward to some of the Westerners, hope you do get around to them!
Dave
-
forgot to add... I need your help to dump my old Rangers 30! Thx!
-
Done!
:)
-
Starting a new occasional rescan series... Orbit's The Westerner #26!... also now c2c!
(oldie has been dumped)
This was originally my first upload for the series, and it was my favorite issue with the first Calamity Kate story, and a story with Krigstein art.
It was missing the cf which was added later thanks to someone who I've forgotten :'( (there was no clue in the old upload), so the cf is from the old scan.
-
Great work Len, please keep 'em comin'!
Plus it's c2c!!!!
Thanks.
Dave
-
Thanks Len for the unusual western book.
Geo
-
a Nedor fiche-replacement (mostly) tonight:
America's Best #8!
but still with 8 fiches: ifc,ibc, pages 1-4 & 47-8
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Nice!
Thanks Len.
-
While wandering among the blogs, I found some scans at Don Ensign's that were never upped to dcm... 3 stories fron the only Cap Marvel Jr that's completely missing - #14. Two are from a b&w UK issue (#19) & one is a color reprint. According to DE, all are P.D.
-
The one from SHAZAM! can't be. Needs to be removed.
-
Thanks Len but DM is right. Anything printed after 1959 isn't allowed either.
I'll pull down the file.
-YOC
-
Guess that should be "anything REprinted after 1959..."
How can anyone tell it's a later reprint if you're not told?
________________________________________
Meanwhile, back at the rescan ranch...
tonight it's a redone & c2c'd Westerner 30!
(done via my CP, so it won't appear on the 'Latest Uploads' list)
-
Thanks Len.
Yes, it can be hard to know. I like that GCD will sometimes list were stories have been reprints.
I hope that CMjr does eventually show up.
-
but if you see some scans, how do you know whether they're from originals or reprints? (assuming the coloring is the same)
_________________________________________________
tonight it's a redone & c2c'd Westerner 25!
(again done via my CP, so it won't appear on the 'Latest Uploads' list)
-
Thanks for these Len - great scans!!
Dave
-
Thank you Len for another western.
Geo
-
Well, the first page of that CM Jr. story labelled it as a reprint.
-
gotta confess I didn't look very closely at it... :'(
And so, carrying on... one more Westerner upgrade rescan + now c2c: #18! (oldie is removed)
That'll be the last of my current series but I might do a few more later. Next, some Tim Holt (with Ghost Rider) upgrades!
-
Thanks Len.
I've just noticed the Krigstein stories in these books. I think they might make a nice collection some day.
Looking forward to the GR upgrades!
-
Thanks Len for all the work your doing on these upgrades.
Geo
-
Finally, back to M.E. rescanland. Tonight it's Timmy Holts #s 30, 31 & 32!
For #32, I'd already rescanned the Ghost Rider, so I just redid the Tim Holt stories + the fc. It's done via my CP, so it won't be on the recent-uploads list.
For #30, it's a full new upload (hag fc + stories only), and oldie is removed.
For #31, it's a full new upload (fc + stories only), but the oldie is so old, it was upped for me by yoc, so I need your help to dump it; thx!
-
Done. Thanks Len!
-
Tonight, the next 2 Timothy Holt rescans: 37 & 38! (stories only redone, but 38 has new fc & bc from HAG; they don't have a 37, so it's still my damaged, but rescanned, fc)
Both oldies are erased.
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Tonight, the next 2 Jack Holt's son, Tim rescans: 39 & 40!
(39: fc + stories redone; 40: stories + new fc & bc from HAG)
Both oldies are erased!
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
And tonight it's the last in my rescan series starring Jennifer Holt's older brother Tim, #41!
and the first in the retitled series: Red Mask #42!
As usual, only the stories are redone, plus HAG fc & bc if available.
RM #42 was one of my really early ones upped for me by Yoc, so I need your help to dump the oldie; thx! (the TH41 is dumped.)
-
Done.
Thanks Len.
:)
-
A new fiche-replacement tonight -- Crack Comics #5!
My copy is missing the cover, ow & two cfs, so...
the fc+bc are from HAG; the ifc,ibc,2cfs & pg63-4 are DM's fiches; and pgs 1-2 are 'paper' also from DM's old upload.
_____________________________
Maybe it's time to start a countdown here... it's now 62 days, 5+ hours to the Pluto flyby! (but great pix will be coming in before then)
Current distance to Pluto: 74,096,944 km
-
Thanks for this Len!
-
A new Centaur tonight -- Super Spy #2!
But, coverless & missing 2 ows. I could find only a smallish fc at the gcdb; a few other sites had the same sad scan. So, if anybody knows of a better coverscan, pls send it to me!
-
Hi Len,
I have a slightly better version of the cover here. A shame about the missing story pages.
-Yoc
-
Thanks! I'm re-upping the file via my CP with the better cover.
New for tonight: a new Tim Holt 16!
I wasn't able to rescan my original comic because I returned it soon after buying it due to 4 damaged pages. I've finally got a new, undamaged copy, so it's now complete (with new, larger scans of all stories, of course). ;D
now 58 days, 6½ hours to Pluto! Current distance to Pluto: 69,399,108 km
-
Thanks Len.
Now this I would call a diff ver.
-
but only if I kept the old, sad scan on the site.
-
But if another exists out on the net, especially from the same scanner/editor, then a 'diff ver' listing makes perfect sense to me.
-Yoc
-
How about something like 'ffly ver 2'? Or maybe put in the year: '2015 ver', or if necessary, '2015 ver 2'.
And, what do you name the 3rd version (& beyond)? A 'more-diff ver'? Or maybe 'differ ver'?
Or, more seriously, 'ver 3'?...
I still think if a database (such as dcm) has only one version, then it's not 'diff'. Maybe it's 'upgraded', or 'replaced', or 'new', or 'improved', or 'now gluten-free', but if it's the only one, it's not different than anything else on the site.
:-/
-
Hi Len,
Ver 2, 3, etc sounds easier. Never will a scan on DCM be gluten or MSG free. We believe in a full body flavour.
'Smoke DCM Unfiltered!' ;)
DCM is not the final authority on scans. We are only hosting versions that are in the public domain. There are now some scans here with at least two versions out there. Some even more if they had a GM scan or were reprinted recently so I'll continue to use (diff ver) when I know of another one even if it's the only one on DCM. Especially if I know there is a fiche or reprint version out there as well.
I've only been removing the fiche and small very incomplete versions from our files when a c2c or much better version shows up.
For your own rescans I think the current (diff ver) -upgrade system is working fine.
-Yoc
-
Back to uploads!
Tonight: a total of 2 new Pages added... to an upgraded Wow 3. (I can't rescan 'cause I don't have the comic). It was missing the last pg & bc so those 4 scans were from DM, but I now added a HAG bc and a pg 64 from an auction (and more screenshots, of course) (oldie is dumped!)
-
Thanks for this one, Freddy.
I love these very early Fawcett books.
-
We only need about 8 books of the Marvel Family.
-
Thanks for working together on it Guys.
Geo
-
Back over to my M.E. rescan series for a triple-header:
Red Masks 44, 45 & 46!
(fc + story pages only, as always; I also added medium-size HAG fcs for all 3, since my covers are torn, chipped and/or stained)
It was feasable for me to obliterate my old 45, but I require your assistance to remove the ancient 44 & 46! My gratitude to you!
-
Done and added the missing zero to each.
Thanks again Len!
-
Sorry about that. My numbering was a carry-over from the Tim Holts which don't have the zeroes.
Speaking of Jack Holt's son.... one more rescanned Tim Holt tonight: #35!
No scans at HAG, so the fc is a rescan of my chipped-edge cover. This was the second of two no-GhostRider issues.
(oldie is dumped!)
-
Thanks Len, everything is good now.
Geo
-
Tonight, my final trio of Redmask rescans: 48,49,50... the last 3 Ghost Rider issues...
stories & fcs only, as usual...
HAG doesn't have very large fcs for 48 & 49, so I redid my damaged ones & added the smaller hag ones (they have none for 50).
My #53 also needs redoing, but it has no GhR, so I'm leaving it for now.
I was able to dump my old 49, but I need your help for 48 & 50; thx!
-
Done!
Thanks Len!
-
I have some assorted rescans still to do.... tonight it's:
The Doll Man #25!
(Dolly & Torchy stories only + hag fc&bc; ifc is still damaged)
(oldie is dumped!)
-
Thanks Len for the re-scan.
Geo
-
Thanks for the Quality upgrade Len!
-
and one more Dolly before moving back to FH... tonight it's:
The Doll Man #35!
(Dolly & Torchy stories only + hag fc) (oldie is dumped!)
I wish I could have redone 38 & 41, but I sold them long ago.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Tonight, the first of what will be a long series of FH rescans: Kaäàâáåãāăǻầậặẳẵnga #2!
HAG fc + full, c-2-c rescan (my cover has more art along the bottom edge).
Oldie is dump'd!
-
Thanks Len, keep going on those re-scans, keep 'em coming for us.
Geo
-
Thaäàâáåãāăǻầậặẳẵnks Len!
;) :D
-
Got a crispy critter for you tonight... a fire-survivor...
Captain Midnight #6!
As you'll see, the outer side-edges are burned right into the artwork; the bottom-edges are burned too, but barely touching the panels; the tops & spine-sides are ok.
Water-damage too!
One more on the way in a few days... #9 (after I sweep up all the ashes)
-
Thanks for this Len!
-
Back to FH upgrades tonight... rescanned Kaanga #8! (stories only & now with hag fc)
Old version is dumped!
note to yoc: this is one of two I'm doing mid-month, but I'm saving a batch for Canada Day at The Factory!
-
Thanks Len for another of your replacement scans. And Happy Canada Day before the actual day on July 1st to both you and Yoc.
Geo
-
Thanks Len, good to know!
:)
-
And upped 24 hours ago, the second & last of my mid-month FH-Kaanga rescans: #12! (stories only, + hag fc&bc).
Oldie is destroyed!
-
Thanks Len, these updates are very much appreciated.
Geo
-
Forgot my Pluto upate:
Countdown to Pluto Closest Approach (Tue, 14 Jul 2015 11:49:57 UTC):
25Days 7Hours 7Minutes; Distance to Pluto: 30,127,016 km
-
Thanks Len, I was just looking for that info.
Geo
-
Finally, my second fire-survivor scan...
Captain Midnight #9!
As you'll see, the outer side-edges are burned right into the artwork; the bottom-edges are burned too, but mostly barely touching the panels; the tops & spine-sides are ok.
Water-damage too! Fc+bc from HAG.
The ifc is missing a large chunk, but I couldn't find another Fawcett with the same ad to replace it.
(Ashes are all swept up!)
-
Thanks Len, nice to see you posting again.
:)
-
Back at last with a Bunch of Fiction House rescans/upgrades:
Planet 10 -replaces GM, except for 2 outer wraps & ifc+ibc;
Jungle 15 -replaces GM, except for the ifc; I've added an ifc(without indicia) & ibc, copied from Jumbo 25.
Kaängas 15-18, all rescans of the stories, and either a rescanned or a HAG fc.
My old Kaängas are dumped!
-
Thanks again Len for your updates as always.
Geo
-
At last, something new for the site, from better/Standard/Nedor:
It Really Happened #8!
-
Thanks Len!
-
And one more.... really! from Better/Standard/Nedor:
It Really Happened #6!
-
Thanks Len for another interesting book.
Geo
-
Tonight, tonight... the last 2 of my Kaanga rescan series: #s 5 & 6 !
-
Thanks again Len, looking great.
Geo
-
At last, here's the last Black Terror - #3 ! (but lots of missing pages in the series & some upgrades needed).
No ifc, ibc or bc; HAG fc.
By the way, do you mean to keep both the fiche & paper BT 6 on the site?
-
Thanks Len!
I have removed the fiche version. Sometimes I can miss them.
-Yoc
-
Sort of a new upload tonight, but made up of mainly previously-uploaded pages:
4C0023 (series1) - Gang Busters (to go along with 4C0024 (series2)).
The only thing new is the fc & bc from HAG. All the story pages are copied from 11 issues of Popular already on the site: 51, 53-8, 60, 63, 67 & 71, so no ifc (which was a text story)
Note that the last 2 pages of #71 were printed on the ibc (in b&w) & bc of 4C0023; I don't have the ibc so this upload has only the color 2nd-last GB page of Pop 71, but I did include both the Last GB page of Pop 71 and the 4c0023 bc for comparison.
-
Thanks Len.
:)
-
2 whole new pages uploaded!
It's an upgrade to jvj's Champion #6 that's missing the cf. I added the centerspread that I downloaded from an auction site, so pages 31 & 34 are still missing. Nothing else in changed.
I transferred the full original description from lofty's upload, and added screenshots.
-
Thanks Len for the update and added text plus the pics.
Geo
-
Tonight... a badly-needed ifc-2-ibc rescan of Hahvey's ALL-NEW 13! (featuring Stuntman & Green Hornet, but the 15-page Greenie, of course, is deleted).
Did you know....
my original AN13 upload, now deleted, had the GH story all these years?
-
Thanks Len for the rescan.
Geo
-
Many thanks Len!
:D
-
A DC++ find! - Crackajack 16 (minus the Tarzan text story) thanks to Snard!
-
Time to start a long-awaited upgrade series - 11 issues of The Westerner need to be made c2c. Tonight it's #28! - text & ad pages added (the others only need the ad pages).
(done via my CP, so it Won't show up in the list of the most-recent uploads)
-
The Westerner upgrades part 2:
tonight it's #s 21, 23, 24, & 31! Ads now added! Lose weight! Gain weight! Save your hair! Dump pimples! Dump your truss!
all done via my CP, so they Won't show up in the latest-uploads list.
-
My All-New 13 has a duplicate Flying Fool page & a missing one; I'll fix it tomorrow
-
Thanks Len, that's fine.
Geo
-
All-New 13 now fixed!
And, part 3 of my Westerners c2c-ification: #s 32, 34 36! Ads added! Lose weight! Lose blackheads! Dump your truss!
Done via my CP once again.
-
6 'paper' scans added tonight to the fiche of America's Greatest #1: fc&bc from hag, and first & last and 2 internal pages from auctions (all fiche scans remain).
Pls dump the original!
-
Thanks for the update Len, the fiche file is taken care of.
Geo
-
Any paper upgrade is great, but those are the clearest, easiest reading, fiche scans I've ever seen.
Beats the curds and weigh out of the B&W c1980 reprint I have.
-
That's why I left all the fiche scans in the upload, but if there's ever a full-paper scan, the fiches will probably be retired.
-
Tonight... the 4th & last of my series of Westerner upgrades-to-c2c: #s 15-17, now with all ads!
Buy pipes! A girdle! Rifles! Cure bad skin! Go strapless!
Done via my CP as usual, so Not on the latest-uploads list.
That still leaves 2 inc issues... my #33 is coverless, and my #14 (first issue) upload was somebody else's scan. Maybe somebody can do JVJ's comics.
-
Thanks Len.
:)
-
Starting a new, badly-needed miniseries of rescans: Cap Marvel Jrs 3-5 & maybe #7.
Tonight: #3! (plus a better fc from HAG)
(oldie is deleted)
-
Excellent news!
Thanks Len.
:D
-
error... error....
My Junior rescans will be #s 3,4 & 7... not #5.
My #5 upload was originally from bhcomics, and then edited & re-upped by DM with his fiches added (ads, text & non-Junior story). The scans aren't as bad as my own three early issues, but the fiches are poorer. Unfortunately, the comic is no longer available.
However... I can add a much better HAG fc&bc, and screenshots, so I will do a minor upgrade.
-
my second of three Cap Marv Junior rescans now done! - #4 (xcept ads & text).
Oldie is dumped!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
And tonight, the last of my Cap Marv Jr rescan-upgrade trilogy: #7! (jr stories only are rescanned) -also now with a 'paper' ifc copied from an issue of Wow (couldn't find a matching ibc).
Oldie is dumped!
-
And finally, my minor upgrade of Jr #5 - now with HAG fc&bc, screenshots and some corrected info. (still has 17 DM fiches)
this time, I need your help to dump the old upload; thx
-
Done.
Thanks again for these Len.
:)
-
And now, beginning a new trilogy of rescans: Bobby Benson B-Bar-B Riders #s 15, 19 & 20, with lots of Dick Ayers art!
Tonight, it's one with a guest appearance by The Ghost Rider: BBBBBRiders #15!
Stories only rescanned, of course, but with a new large HAG fc.
Oldie is deleted!
-
Thank you very much Len.
Geo
-
Thanks for these Freddy. Back about 1953 I listened to the B-B radio show twice a week.
-
Tonight: ending a trilogy of rescans of: Bobby Benson B-Bar-B Riders with #s 19 & 20, both with all Dick Ayers art!
#19 still has 2 damaged pages (one panel cut out of each).
Fc & stories only rescanned.
And I need your asssssissstance to dump both oldies; thx x 2!
-
Will do Len, I'll take care of it.
Geo
-
A partial rescan tonight: much bigger scans of the fc & Dollguy story of Feature 104!
Done via my CP, so it Won't show up in the recent-additions list.
-
Thanks Len.
:)
-
Tonight, starting a short series of fiche-repalcements with Whiz 29!
Sadly, my copy is missing the cf, so those 4 scans are from DM's old fiche.
Next: a couple of Kid Eternities (and one more Bobby Benson upgrade).
-
Thanks very much Len!
:)
-
Tonight, it's Eternity Kid #17! (fiche replacement)
-
Thanks Len. Renamed to match the others and pulled down the fiche.
-
Continuing my Christmas week uploads, tonight it's Eternity Kid #10! (the Last fiche replacement!) (with all zeroes!)
All that's missing now for a 100% complete 'paper' series is the text & ifc+ibc ads from #1.
Also need to update this description of the Kid Eternity section:
"Nearly complete! Fiche replacements and odds & ends still needed."
-
Thanks Len for the upload.
I'll bring that to the attention to Yoc on the change on the description.
Geo
-
It's Christmas Eve eve here, but Christmas Eve in over half the world, so here's the second-last missing Green Hornet: #18! (only need #46, which, without Hornet, only has some toons & Sunday-strip reprint stuff).
#18 has two 10-pg Hornet stories, so all we can upload is 28 of the 48 pages (I also included two half-page house Ads that were part of each last Hornet page). And my copy is coverless, so no ifc+ibc, but HAG has the fc+bc.
For more (soon), head on over to the "other" comicbook-scan site.
-
I was a day eartly yesterday... NOW it's Christmas Eve eve over part of The Earth and Christmas Eve over the rest.
So... ending my Christmas week uploads, it's Startling Comics 51! (missing only the ifc).
Happy holidays, Season's Greetings, and Merry Christmas to all, and to all: happy scanning!
-
Thanks Len and the same goes out to you.
Geo
-
Thanks for making the week special Len.
Happy Holidays!
:D
-
I'm back sooner than I expected to be, thanks to DC++:
tonight it's Crackajack Funnies #s 4 & 8!
And, I'll complete the series with #6 when Snard's back online (unless someone else gets to it first)
-
Thanks again Len.
Geo
-
Two upgrades to start off MMXVI:
a full rescan of Fiction House's MOVIE COMICS #4! (my copy had no back cover; hag fc&bc and a borrowed ibc).
<I need your help to dump the oldie; thx!>
and a diff ver (bigger & better) of M.E.'s BoBBy Benson B-Bar-B Riders #8 (ads copied from old version).
-
Thanks Len, I'll take care of the old file for you.
Geo
-
A very minor upgrade tonight, thanks to the old HAG: a back cover and a better fc added to Fox's The Eagle #2 (see my note about the title in the problems-with-scans section).
Also: now with screen shots, re-named scans and a change to .cbz.
And, I need your help to dump the oldie; thx!
-
Thanks for the update Len, adjusted the file name and removed the old file for you.
Geo
-
Thanks, Len, you do great work!
-
I found one old scan of an early Blue Bolt that badly needed upgrading: vol 2 #4!
It's a full new c2c scan, but it's partly a rescan and partly a 'diff ver'... my original upload had only 3 new story-scans added to an earlier, smaller bchat upload, so whether you wan't to delete the oldie is up to you.
-
Thanks Len, I'll leave that up to Yoc on taking the old one down.
Geo
-
Two Fiction House upgrades tonight, thx to soothsayer & the LOC:
Planet 14 & Jumbo 49, now c2c-paper!
Oldies are dumped, and there's also an old dumpable Planet 18 fiche along with a newer paper scan.
And the section info needs updating for both:
Jumbo still says:
"Still missing or fiche only: 1-6,8,9,11;
Missing some pgs: 7,14,26,27,48,49,52,53,55,134,142,151"
But, 1-6 & 8 are paper, none are missing, and 7, 48, 49, 134, 142 & 151 are complete, so it should say:
" Still fiche only: 9,11;
Missing some pgs: 14(has fiches),26,27,52,53,55 "
And Planet says:
"Still missing: 6-8,11,13,15,19
Missing some pgs: 2,4,12,14,17,20,24,41"
But it should say:
Still missing or fiche or GM: 6-8,11,13,15,19
Missing some pages, or some fiche: 2,4,12,17,20,24,41
-
Thanks Len.
Now updated those entries as well.
-
A happy Spring to all!
And we're counting down to next Monday's DCM anniversary, so tonight I start with 'diff vers' of two old small PSolvang scans: Marvel Familys 44 & 57!
-
Thanks Len. Nice to see these being upgraded as well.
-
And similarly tonight a new large-scan 'dif' version of an old smallish scan:
Bobby Benson B-Bar-B Riders #6!
-
Now up!
:D
-
5 days to A-Day, and an ice storm on the way! So...:
tonight it's a very badly needed new verson of Tim Holt #6
Although this is a scan of a new, different copy, my old one should be dumped (yoc originally upped it for me 6 years ago!). It was the worst-condition comic I ever scanned and probably worse than anybody else's uploads.
-
It's Anniversary Day over most of the world, and 2 hours to go here in the EDT zone, so here's a Fawcett Fiche Replacement to start my small contribution:
Marvel Family 53!
-
A great start to the event!
Thanks very much Len.
:D
-
Hey, gang! I've up'd my few contributions to the 6th Anniversary Scanfest:
2 short series now completed: Barker 13; Don Fortune 3!
(major thanks to narfstar for the Barker 13!)
And, a new series for me, 3 issues of Fawcetts Funny Animals: 15, 30 & 52!
... I messed up my first upload (Barker 13) and put under the title instead of in the Anniversary folder. Can you move it if it's not a whole lot of trouble? Thanks.
-
Huzah!
Thanks very much Len for your additions to the big day.
Finally Barker is done.
:)
-Yoc
-
Starting a new series of scans of Fawcett Funny Animals with the earliest missing issue: #7!
-
Thanks Len, saw your other post on this.
Geo
-
Some folks over at cb+ found than my 3½-year-old upload of Marvel Family 15 had 2 mirror-reversed scans.
So..... it's now fixed & re-upped (note that it's done via my Control Panel, so it Won't show up under newest uploads).
-
Thanks for the fix Len.
Geo
-
a pair of upssssss tonight...
first, from deeCeePlusPlus... America's Funniest Comics #2! (a Nedor comic published by Wm. H. Wise; second of 2 issues)
and, from my scanner... my next Fawcett Funny Animals: #34!
-
Thanks Len!
-
For Mayday, a pair of Funny Fawcett Animals: #s 31 & 33!
-
Thanks Len, I'm seeing a pattern here.
:)
-
My upload of America's Funniest 2 is now upgraded due to the very old, but not forgotten, leading-zeroes debacle!
-
Tonight, the next in my Hopped-up Bunny series... Fawcetts Funny Animals 45!
-
Thanks Len for your work on these.
Geo
-
Continuing my hopped-up series, tonight it's: Fawcett's Funny Animals 28!
-
Should've uploaded these for Easter! ;)
-
It was Orthodox Easter lsst week!
My final scan of the series tonight: F'sFA #27!
-
Sticking with Fawcett... a nice early Master Comics fiche-replacement: #33!
it was coverless, and chewed along the bottom edge (see above!), so hag fc&bc, an ifc from another title, and ibc from dm's fiche
-
Major hole plugged! Thanks FreddyF !!
A quick survey shows that DCM now harbors some form of every issue of Master Comics except #3.
-
We still need #3, 5, and 6.
-
7 whole pages upped tonight! (they complete Blue Bolt v6n5; the rest is the same upload as before).
And I need your help to dump the old scan; thx!
-
Done, thanks Len.
:)
-
And tonight it's TWO whole new pages!... to conmplete darkmark's original Sam Hill 005 upload. Added from the LOC scan!
(pls remove inc version)
-
Done, thanks Len!
-
Here's an old scan that somehow wasn't up on the site.
Freddyfly paper with fiche from Darkmark.
Thrilling_Comics_#30 [Aug'42][fiche+24paper]-c2c -freddyfly+DM
Enjoy!
-Yoc
-
Always glad to see more Thrilling Comics (and American Crusader stories) on DCM. Thanks Len. :)
-
I don 't know how that one slipped by (was it an old gac upload?); thanks for upping it!
-
Happy to help Len. No idea why it wasn't there either.
-Yoc
-
where was it?
-
I had it on my HD and happened to notice it wasn't up on DCM.
-Yoc
-
After spending some time over at The Other Site upping UFS comics, I'm back with a new series of Novelty rescans, starting with:
Blue Bolt v2 #9!
and I need your help to dump the original up; thx!
-
Done, thanks Len!
-
And next in my Novelty upgrade-rescan series:
Blue Bolt v2 #10!
a better fc from hag added; the bc had the top 1/3 cut off, so a complete ibc from the same month's Target replaces the damaged one; but the damaged bc remains.
The oldie is deeleeted!
-
Thank you Len.
Geo
-
A new dc++ find: Popular Comics 24 (Annie is dumped)
The Popular section info needs a fix; it now says:
"Little Orphan Annie is in the following issues - please remove her stories if you are going to upload these:
1-19, 22, 26, 27, 31, 65, 66"
but, all issues from 1 to 27 have an Annie story (after that she was transferred to Super Comics). The later appearances are in house ads.
-
Thanks Len, entry corrected.
-
Tonight, starting a series of later Populars (all 'internet finds'), with #114 (Felix dumped, of course).
But....
the section info has the same problem with Felix as with Annie:
it says he's in " 78,83,99,100,102, 107-110,116,121, 128-130,132-142. ",
but it should say "98 to 142.", which means many issues currently on the site could have Felix pages (there's no indication that the pages were removed, and I've never downloaded them).
As for 78 & 83, they seem to be c2c, and the gcdb agrees there's no Felix in them.
-
Will correct the listing Len but I'm not going to be checking every issue there.
If someone wants to check them and pull out non-PD stories and upload them again please feel free.
-
Carrying on.... tonight, a batch of five Felix-free later Populars: 117, 120, 123, 126 & 129!
(all from cyberspace)
-
and four mour Pops: 118, 124, 127 & 130!
All Cat-scans removed as usual.
-
Thanks Len!
-
And, tonight, the Last five late-number Populars: 119, 122, 125, 128, & 131, which completes the run from #40 to the end.
There's also a few 'paper' scans of very early issues available to replace old fichescans, so I'll get to those soon.
-
I decided to add one more Pop: #140; the current one is very small. and very incomplete (missing more than just Felix)
-
:'( Appppppppppologies for the Popular 131 mess; new, correct upload now done! (via my CP).
^-^ Also, I've reupped prime User's Pop 141 with the missing cf added, so you can dump the original.
-
Done.
Thanks Len!
-
And, to finish off my popular (?) Popular intenet-find series, four very-early fiche-replacement issues: #s 4 to 7!
(Annie-free, of course!)
-
Hi,
I updated (via my CP) my ancient 4 Favorites #5 upload with pg 1 & 64 added (from an eBay auction). I also added screenshots, renamed it to .cbz, and re-sorted the scans so they work in preview mode.
I also have a bc to add to Lightning v1#4, but it's not my original upload, and it has a lot of user comments that shouldn't be lost. If I up an upgraded version, can you substitute it directly for the old upload?
-
Hi Len,
Just send me the page to be added in an email and I can take care of it without losing any comments, etc.
-Yoc
-
Ok, it'll be on the way soon.
Meanwhile... I finally have something new to contribute, except it's 10 years old! I found I have a mostly-paper Startling 17 (39 of 68 pages) and dcm only has dm's fiche, so I've upped a c2c version with 29 fiche scans added from dm's old upload.
It was one of bhcomics' earliest scans, but I only have 37 pages (plus hag fc&bc), so we'll have to wait for the rest of the comic.
-
Thanks Len, now up.
:)
-
I'm finally back in the rescan game with a new c2c Master Comics 133, but I need your help to dump the old one; thx!
-
Done, thanks very much for the upgrade Len.
:)
-
Tonight: another Master Comics rescan-upgrade - #97. All 4 main stories are redone; the txt/ad/toon pages are unchanged, and paper ifc&ibc are added to replace old fiches.
The oldie is dumped!
-
Thanks for all the upgrades Len!
-
Next in my Master Comics upgrade series #83!
This is partly a rescan of the previous 'paper' pages, plus new scans to replace about 20 fiches, plus a HAG fc. The cf is still fiche, and one leaf (pages 31-2) is still torn & patched (by yoc) using the old fiches.
The oldie is dumped!
-
Thanks Len, paper is good.
Geo
-
To paraphrase Boris:
mmmmmmmmmmm........ Paper......... gooooooooooood! Fiche........... baaaaaaaaaaaad!
And one more: Master Comics #91 full rescan, with a new Hag fc.
-
My final Master Comics, #67, is a c2c 'diff ver'. The old one has smaller scans, but a larger filesize because of low compression.
That old upload, credited to me, was originally a 'Guest User' upload, with 3 old scans that I supplied added to (nearly) complete it. I don't know who upped the combo version, but I was wondering if you could change the 'uploader' back to Guest User.
Thx!
-
No problem Len, done.
Geo
-
Oops... it's the Old version that needs changing to 'Guest User', not my new diff-ver upload (which I just fixed)
-
I just removed the old version and fixed yours Len.
-
Ok, confusion reigns. Nothing has changed.
What I was hoping is that you'd change the Uploader for the old version - "Master Comics 067 (minus ifc)" from 'ff' to Guest User, since it's not my scan or upload (although it has 3 of my scanned pgs).
Meanwhile, a Captain Marvel Jr rescan-upgrade tonight - #31. I normally don't recsan if somebody else has upped a diff ver (Don Ensign in this case), but my oldie (which is dumped) was really bad (and only 32 pages), so I redid it.
-
I've removed the old version of Master 67 from the general public Len.
Thanks for your latest.
-Yoc
-
Another Cap Marvel Jr upgrade tonight - #33.
I thought I'd be doing a 'rescan', but instead it's a new version because my original upload used scans (of the Jr stories) from the Don Ensign blog. The old non-Jr pages were my own scans, so I just copied those to my new upload.
About the old Master 67 (no ifc)... it's still there in the Master Comics section, attributed to me.
-
Thanks Len.
Master67 old version removed.
-
One more Cap Marvel Jr upgrade -#54. A normal rescan of the main stories from the same comic I upped 6 years ago, with new hag fc&bc. The one torn page is still torn.
Oldie is dumped!
-
Thank you Len for another update.
Geo
-
And another Master Comics rescan - #68 , but it's a 'combo'... I only have the Cap Jr & Bulletman + a few other odd pages. DM had combined my original upload with his fiches, but now I've combined my rescans with hag fc&bc and DonEnsign pages (edited to match my filesizes).
And, I need your help to dump the oldie; thx!
-
Thanks Len, old one zapped.
-Yoc
-
And one last Master Comics rescan - #94, but like my prev upload, it's a combo. Again I only have the Cap Jr & Bulletman pages so that's all that's rescanned (& a couple odd pages); the rest is the original DM paper scans (he had combined my old scans with his scans). And I need you, one more time, to obliterate the old upload; thx!
-
'Twas the week before Christmas, and all through the manor,
Not a creature was stirring, 'cept a busy old scanner... :D
and as a result, for Xmas 2016, here's Startling Comics 44! (but, from a coverless, so HAG fc&bc and no ifc or ibc).
Only #46 is now needed (along with assorted fiche replacements and the odd minor page).
__________________________________________________________________
And one more non-minor page -- the missing page 9 from Startling 47! (it was at the Nedor-a-day site all this time). (Also, screenshots added, and the upload now .cbz instead of .cbr, and filenames changed.)
(Pls dump the oldie; thx!)
-
Thanks Len! :D
-
Thank you for those Len and Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Geo
-
Tonight, a rescan of my Marvel Family 70 , plus paper versions of the ifc,ibc,bc copied from Whiz144 to replace fiches.
Plus, jagmor's patchwork (using colored versions of the UK b&w pages) of the last 2 pages is/are included.
I was able to dump my old upload, but you can also dump jagmor's old patched version.
-
:'( error... error... error...
After all these years, I got caught in the capital-vs-small letter trap again (review: most software doesn't differentiate between caps & smalls, but stuff like password software does... and so does dcm's Preview feature. This means they follow strict ASCII order, with ALL caps preceding ALL smalls).
I named the cover (&ifc) mf70p..., but the pages are MF70p01..., so in Preview the MF's appeared first, and the mf's at the end.
But, I fixed it tonight, so Preview is OK, but instead of the cover thumbnail on the download page, you still see page 1.
-
Thanks for the fix there Len.
Yeah, once a book gets it's thumbnail we can't update it.
-Yoc
-
And one more Fawcett that needed rescanning badly - Marvel Family 55 (ads & text pgs not redone).
It looks like that was one yoc originally upped for me, so I need your help to remove the oldie; thx!
-
Done, thanks Len!
-
Tonight, a ctc rescan of one of my worst early Novelty uploads - Blue Bolt v4 #9! (oldie is dumped)
-
Very nice, thanks Len.
:)
-
Two nwo badly-needed FH rescans for the end of 2017 (a prime year!) - Jumbo 70 (6 years old) & Wings 70 (originally uploaded 8 years ago!). (with screenshots added, of course)
Both oldies are dumped!
--------------------
Arrrrrrrrrrrgh... didn't notice the fc was named jb70... and the rest of the pages Jb70.... I fixed the upload, but, as always, the 2nd scan (the ifc) thumbnail shows up instead of the fc
-
oh well no real harm done.
Thanks very much Len.
And like JVJ - you are one of the pillars that have built DCM into the site we're so proud to call home!
:)
-
Many thanks! I hope to be back in position soon to buy more new stuff to add to DCM.... meanwhile, it's back to rescans:
Continuing from my Wings 70 rescan-upload a few days back, tonight it's a Wings 84 rescan... the start of a new series! (now with a full set of screenshots, of course)
My oldie was edited & re-upped by somebody else, so I need your help to dump it; thx!
-
Done. Thanks for another update Len.
:)
-
Continuing my Wings rescan-upload series: tonight it's a Wings 83 rescan! (now with a full set of screenshots, of course) (from a coverless, so ifc&ibc are copied from the old upload)
Once again, my original was edited & re-upped by somebody else, so I need your help to dump it; thx!
-
Done. Thanks Len!
-
Continuing my Wings rescan-upload project, tonight it's Wings 80 (now with a full set of screenshots, of course), and this time the oldie is dumped!
-
Repeat previoue message with Wings 108!
-
Thanks Len for all the work on these rescans they are looking great.
Geo
-
Completing part 1 (later-# issues) of my Wings rescan-upload project, tonight it's Wings 98 (now with a full set of screenshots, of course), and the oldie is dumped!
-
Thank you Len as always.
Geo
-
A minor upgrade tonight, to bhcomics' old Speed Comics 28 -- a better fc (hag), and 3 added scans: the bc (hag); the back page (a nice house ad (auction scan)); and pg1 of Speed Taylor.
(and screenshots added)
-
Thanks Len!
-
Before getting to the early-# Wings, a change-of-pace tonight with a rescan of Blue Bolt v3#5! (still no cf)
And, now with screenshots; oldie is deleted!
-
I 'borrowed' a few of the LOC scans of Super-Mystery v6n5 to upgrade my ancient inc upload.
Added: the centerfold & text story (edited to match the old scans), but Not the ifc/ibc/bc ads.
And, this was one yoc upped for me originally, so I need your help to dump the oldie; thx!
-
Beginning part 2 of my Wings rescan series, the earlier issues, with #38!
My original upload was edited & re-upped by someone else, so I need your help, yet again, to dump the oldie.
Screenshots added, as usual!
-
Done, thanks Len!
-
Two upgrades tonight:
First, I took advantage of the new BluBolt v5n6 to add the missing cf to my old upload (edited to match the old scans), plus more screeshots.
And, continuing part 2 of my Wings rescan series - the earlier issues - tonight it's #21!
And, once again my original upload was edited & re-upped by someone else, so I need your help to dump the oldie. Screenshots added, as usual!
-
Done. Thanks again Len!
Glad the new feature is working for you.
-Yoc
-
A partial upgrade tonight of Crack Comics #8. The old upload had 29 paper (Mr. DoorTree) and 39 fiche (dm).
My new version has 15 more paper: hag fc&bc, 2 ad pgs from other comics, and 11 scans from an online auction.
-
I upped a post-John Carter issue of Funnies, The tonight, #58 (a dsdaboss scan, re-packaged as a .cbz file with new filenames), but the Funnies folder doesn't show in the uploads drop-down box, so I put it in the general Dell area.
It joins the 5-year old #59. I can transfer a couple others over from CB+ if you agree to all this (#58 wasn't there).
-
I've moved it to the proper folder for you Len. Thanks.
-Yoc
-
Only one The Funnies issue at CB+ meets dcm's criteria... #60, so it's now in the misc Dell section! (repackaged as .cbz with new filenames) and screenshots!
-
And, next in my Wings rescan series... #16! Coverless, as before, so HAG fc&bc, ifc from JVJ, and ibc from another comic.
-
Thanks Len. Funnies moved to proper folder.
-Yoc
-
oops...... forgot to add that my old Wings 16 upload was, once again, edited & re-upped by someone else, so I need your help to dump it; thx!
-
Done
-
Next in my Wings rescan series -- #15! Still coverless, so: Hag fc&bc; fiche ifc; ibc now copied from a Jumbo.
And, for once, my original upload was intact, so it's dumped!
-
Thanks again Len.
Geo
-
and next in my Wings rescan series: #12!
My original upload again was edited & re-upped by someone else, so I need your help, yet again, to dump the oldie.
Screenshots added, as usual!
-
Thanks Len. I'll take care of the old file for you.
Geo
-
Tonight, ending my Wings Comics rescan series with #5 & #7!
My #7 is still coverless & ow-less, so the new upload still has the original ifc,ibc,ow fills from JVJon.
The #5 is also coverless, so the ifc is still from Tigger's fiche, but the ibc is now copied from Planet 10.
Only my #7 original upload was replaced/edited by someone else, so I need your help to dump that one; thx!
-
Thanks Len.
Old 7 is now gone.
-
New, nearly-all-paper Crack Comics #8 now done!
Not a complete new version... only 22 of the 24 old fiches are now paper (ifc & pg 63 still fiches), and I only replaced the smaller old 'paper' scans.
I upped it using my CP, but I forgot to click the new box that would make the new upload appear in the Latest Uploads list. Sorry. :'(
-
Thanks Len!
And you can always go back into it with Edit and tick that reset button anytime. I'll do it for you now though.
-Yoc
-
Thanks! Never thought of that!
Tonight... one whole page added!!! - the ifc for Startling 51(now c2c)
-
Thanks Len!
-
Back to my Novelty rescan series, with Target v3 #11!
(and I remembered to change the upload date ;D
-
Thanks very much Len!
-
Next in my Target rescan series: v4 #11!
This one was originally upped by yoc, so I need your help to dump the oldie.
The cover is still badly damaged... hag doesn't have this issue, so the fc scan is the same as before, from somewhere (I don't remeber where... could be Metropoliscomics' archive), and the ifc is still missing a large chunk.
-
Thanks Len, oldie is now zapped.
-Yoc
-
The cover is still badly damaged... hag doesn't have this issue, so the fc scan is the same as before, from somewhere (I don't remeber where... could be Metropoliscomics' archive), and the ifc is still missing a large chunk.
The Library of Congress has this issue in a bound volume... perhaps the fc & ifc can be scanned in a future trip by our LOC benefactor. Sometimes the inner margin of bound volumes is obscured during a scan, but your cover is missing the outer portion, so it should be fairly easy to make a merged version that is complete.
-
Tonight, my next Target Comics rescan-upgrade: Vol 4 #6!
-
Thank you Len, looking great.
Geo
-
I decided to do my own edit (trimming, brightening & shrinking) of the LOC bound-volume BluBolt v4n1, with each scan still a 2-page spread (except fc & bc)
-
Hi Len,
I recall someone else did this once. Didn't seem to catch on.
Thanks for you work on it all the same.
-Yoc
-
I knew it had been there for a long time, and I was basically doing it for myself because I wanted part of the issue for my own collection. I assumed a single-page, higher-dpi version would be done eventually. I doubt I'll ever do a 2-page-spread edit again.
(and I hope you meant "fait accompli", or as the English say, an "accomplished fact").
I didn't know for sure who scanned it, but I've edited my upload to add the info.
Meanwhile, back at the rescan ranch:
a new upgrade of Young King Cole v1#4 now upped!
-
Thanks Len!
-
Tonight... starting a new series of upgrades and/or fiche-replacements with:
Bobby Benson B-bar-B Riders #5! (possibly was the Smallest 36(or more)-page comic scan on the site - 4.2Mb!)
-
Thanks for the upgrade of Bobby Benson #5. Bob Powell art definitely should be scanned at a large size.
I used to listen to the radio show the comic is based on. BTW, it was only in the last few years I learned that Windy Wales was voiced by Don Knotts.
-
My next upgrade -- Doll Man 41! (a diff ver, not a rescan). Larger scans of the stories, but the comic was heavily creased.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Starting off Fawcett Fridays with a fiche replacement of Nedor's Exciting Comics #27! (ifc fiche; ibc from FYank #4; hag fc&bc). Only #s 1 & 6 are still all-fiche.
And, to get on to the main topic:
A fiche-replacement for Whiz Comics #14 !! (but, still 4 fiches: ifc,ibc, and the last page). Front page magically edited by yoc; fc&bc from HAG.
Plus, an upgraded Master Comics 39, with the 14 fiche-scans replaced by paper from a different copy (but the rest of the pagescans are unchanged, so it's not a diff ver). The fiche ibc is replaced by one from CMJr #7, but the ifc is still fiche.
(I've removed my old upload).
One more Fawcett on the way later today: an issue of Western Hero.
-
Thanks, Len!
-
Thanks for the great start to Fawcett Fridays Len!
-
Somebody noticed my Whiz14 had a duped pg33 in place of pg62, and reupped it with a fiche of pg 62 (without changing the file info to '5 fiches'), but it doesn't matter since it's now re-fixed with a paper pg 62.
-
Thanks Len for the fix on Whiz 14.
Geo
-
My final Friday Fawcett contribution is my only all-new issue:
Western Hero 92 !
-
A couple of minor upgrades: I used the new BluBolt v5n5 to add the missing pages to my old upload) edited to match), but I need your help to dump my original. Thx!
And... I found a Jungle 93 auction with a complete Simba splash page to replace the half-torn-off one I uploaded exactly 8 years ago yesterday! Sadly, the flip side, Simba pg2, is still half torn-off.
I also replaced all the other splash pages with much better versions, and used the opportunity to rename the file, and add screen shots.
I used my CP this time, so the old version is gone.
-
Looks that someone removed the other one, so that's taken care of. Thanks for the update Len as always.
Geo
-
One other upload can be dumped (or archived):
darkmark's Whiz Comics 014 (improved fiche) (http://digitalcomicmuseum.com/index.php?dlid=10215)
-
I guess you can get rid of THRILLING COMICS #21 too.
-
Will do. Thanks guys.
-
A Jungle upgrade tonight: a new c2c #100 to accompany the ancient (1.4 years older than dcm!) ae660 upload
-
Thanks Len for another upgrade as always.
Geo
-
Tonight 2 new, larger diff versions of Jungle Comics 141 & 148!
The #141, however is really #142, because it's a Canadian version which has 141's front cover & 142's pages (except the ads are Canadian), a common type of mess with Canadian versions in general, so beware when you're buying (I thought I was getting a complete 141).
At least I can say that I contributed a Candian comic for Canada Day!, even if it's by accident.
-
It is good timing on that Canadian Jungle. Thanks very much Len!
-Yoc
-
Canadian jungle? What have I been missing here?
-
One of Len's two Jungle books mentioned above is a Canadian edition DM.
-
Yes, it's the wild great white north jungles, complete with polar giraffes, hippos, rhinos, and the ever-popular polar peacocks!
-
Nice one Len, entertaining as always. Made my day.
Geo
-
I have returned... with a couple of badly-needed M.E. upgrades:
first, more Dick Ayers and Bob Powell in Bobby Benson 16 -- the last smallish one, originally upped by DMe nearly 8 years ago!
-
Thanks Len!
I used to listen to the B-Bar-B radio show two or three times a week when I was five or six. I never saw the comics before I got into fandom. M.E. produced fine adaptations.
Thanks to you and all the others involved in making the series available.
-
And, my second M.E. upgrade (diff ver) - Tim Holt 36!
Others need upgrading, but this was the last smallish-scan issue with a Ghost Rider story, originally upped nearly 9½ years ago!!
Next, a couple of Prize Pubs. comics to finish off a title.
-
Thanks Len for the "Bobby Benson 16" and "Tim Holt 36".
Geo
-
Tonight, tonight... a double-header (or double-feature, depending on your preferences) to finish a title: Prize's Wonderland Comics #s 6 & 8!
-
Thanks very much Len!!
:D
-
A minor upgrade with nothing new except a back cover:
The new TotJ scans got me looking thru the series and I found that #20 has a reprint from Jo-Jo 16,
so I added that to my old JoJo upload which had only one other reprint (from Jungle Adv 10, which was in turn reprinted from TotJ 4). I also added a HAG bc. (done via my CP)
By the way, if we can't get an original JoJo 16, TotJ 19 would be 2nd-best as it has a reprint of the 3rd JoJo 16 story.
By the way #2, how's that original Jo-Jo 17 coming along?
-
I too have an original copy of TOTJ 20 which I'm going to hand off to Yoc for editing soon as I've been working of other projects at this time too. Hopefully we'll have some nice clean books up.
Thanks Len for your work on this book.
Geo
-
Sorry, I didn't mean to imply I had a copy of TotJ 20; I copied the scans from darwination's old upload.
[to Geo]: don't you have a JoJo 17?
Back to new stuff:
Tonight, my first of 3 early Tim Holt rescan/upgrades: #7. I'm doing the 3 pre-Ghost Rider issues with Dick Ayers' Calico Kid (9 & 10 are the others).
-
Thanks Len.

Len, yes I have Jo-Jo #17, (not scanned also yet), also FamousFunnies #53, (also not yet scanned), plus a Jungle Jo #nn (also not scanned yet). But I've just got Terrors of the Jungle #20 and #6 (c2c both) scanned, I'll be passing these on to Yoc and OtherEric to do the editing. Plus a bunch of other JVJ books I've had scanned but due to health issues never got the editing done on them, those too will be passed on to other editors here as I have time to up them to the ftp at 2 hours a book. But they are coming Len, I'll keep you posted. Thanks for asking, any other you want to know about I might have?
Geo
-
Thanks for the update Geo.
I'm ready and willing to edit anything at all you want to shoot my way.
-Yoc

Meanwhile, back at the ranch....
The second of my early-number Tim Holt rescan trilogy: #9! (done via my CP, so the earlier data remains)
-
Thanks Len. Nice to see the reset date option working so well.
And I hope you are liking the new GCD data listings. Check out the Search feature now.
Sortable!!
-
And tonight, my final (for now) Tim Holt early-issue upgrade: #10! ; a new upload, and I dumped the old one.
-
Thanks Len!
-
My first scan of fall: the long awaited (by me, anyway) completion of Famous Funnies 107!
It's the same dc++ scan upped by movielover almost 5 years ago, but with the 9 missing scans added and a better fc from hag. Also, the scans are renamed, the numbering is fixed, and screenshots added.
Pls dump the oldie!
-
Will do Len on the removal, and thanks for the update.
Geo
-
Tonight, a Fawcett upgrade: Marvel Family 41!
(The current one is a small Solvang upload)
-
Thanks again Len.
Geo
-
Tonight, one new page!
It's the missing ifc-page1 (Rulah) of Zoot14A, from an online auction. It's added to IW's Jungle Adv 12, the Zoot14A reprint. I copied all the original comments but added the upgrade info, so you can dump the old one.
-
Very cool, thanks Len!
:)
-
At last (and finally!)... an all-paper Cap Marvel Junior 109!(fiche-replacement)
It was coverless, so all 4 cover scans are from HAG or the old part-fiche upload.
-
Very nice, thank Len!
-
I finally have a new fiche-replacement olden goldie to share with the scanworld (only the ibc is still fiche - borrowed from DM's old upload.):
Thrilling Comics #3!
-
Beautiful scan, Len!
These early Nador comics are full of characters that moved over from the company's pulp line. Two in this issue being the Rio Kid, whose own pulp title ran for about two decades, and the Ghost, who was simply a double identity stage magician.
-
Thanks Len for another replacement to our files. Always welcome.
Geo
-
And now for something completely different (for me)....
ACG's Ha Ha Comics #17 (c2c!) (my first of several ACG funny-animal comics)
-
Thanks Len!
-
Next... the earliest missing issue - Ha Ha Comics #8!
I entered the GCbDb issue #, but all that appears is the basic issue info, not the story details.
-
Thanks Len.
and thanks for adding the GCD id# as well. The reason it doesn't match the current listings there is we are using their data dumb that they only do periodically and not the real time site listings. This is done for bandwidth and simplicity reasons. Eventually the listings will match.
-Yoc
-
It's been a while since I had a new Quality for dcm, so tonight it's a fiche-replacement:
Hit Comics #36!
and this time the entire GCBDB info appeared instantly;
but for my previous 2 ups (Ha Has 8 & 17) only the basic issue info still shows... no contents.
-
Thanks Len, always great to see a new Quality on the site!
And a nonny moose has upgraded your Hit 8 with the missing ibc from a fiche scan.
See my above reply about the GCD data. Until a new data dump comes from GCD the listings here are not up to date.
-Yoc
-
Ok, but I don't understand why my Latest upload gets the full data, but older ones don't, even though at GCBDB, all the comics' data are complete.
-
Hi Len,
It all depends on when the GCD data was added to their site. Any data added since the last data dump we wont have until the next one. Now if you mean you can see books on DCM without ANY GCD data at all those are mistakes that I can correct. Please shoot me a list in an email if you find any.
-Yoc
-
I guess the question is: how long is it between their data dumps? The 2 HaHa issues I upped on Nov 11 & 13 still don't have detailed data, but everything I've added since then does.
Meanwhile... a new bigger & better Jungle Comics 22! (a different copy, so it's a 'diff ver', not an upgrade)
-
Thanks for the upload Len.
Sorry, I have no clue how often the GCD data dumps happen. After they do we have to download it so it might take some time.
-Yoc
-
Thanks for the info.
And now back over to my ACG stuff with Giggle Comics 40!
-
Thanks Len.
Geo
-
Nothing new tonight, just a 'diff ver'
A couple months back I decided to try upgrading some Firehairs, and bought a couple (cheap), but before I got around to any uploading, Krac upped big, new versions of most of them (#s 5, 6, 10 stlll needed).
I had scanned #11, so I'm finally adding it tonight, mainly to replace my old sad, inc scan...
But I need your help to dump my oldie that was probably added long ago by Yoc.
Thanks!
Also, small correction needed; Krac's Firehair 007 should be changed to Pionneer West Romances 007
-
Thanks Len!
Sorry about the overlap with Krac.
The old one is now gone. I see GCD is calling #7 Firehair so I guess I'll leave it as-is.
I imagine it means your own #7 should be renamed.
-Yoc
-
Ok, I've got it figured out. It depends on whether you strictly follow the indicia or the cover title.
#7 was a 'transition' issue - PWR on the cover, but Firehair in the indicia, so the gcbdb, which strictly folllows the indicia, has it under Firehair. I'd change my sad, old upload (after all, we have to keep up with CB+ ;) !), but it's a 6½-year old scan that was probably upped by yoc, so I can't change it.
Overall, DCM & CB+ are much less strict (sadly), sometimes ignoring title changes and even publisher changes.
Happier stuff...
I found I had a Christmas issue to upload for The Holidays: Giggle Comics #37 now upped!
-
Thanks Len and Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Geo
-
Thanks Len! And I've renamed your book to Firehair 7.
Happy Holidays!
-
I'm back with another ACG funny-animal issue: Ha Ha Comics #11!
Unfortunately 90% of my uploads go to CB+where they allow the PD parts of United Features comics (hint, hint ;D )
-
Thanks Len!
-
Crack Comics 31 (fiche-replacement) now upped! (but cf is still fiche)
-
Very nice, thanks again Len.
:D
-
Tonight, a Fiction House special - a 'paper' replacement for the last fiche Wings - #6 (ctc)!
-
Very nice!!
Thanks Len! :D
-
One new page tonight! It's the one Rulah story-page missing from the Zoot/Rulah series (thanks to auctions) - the ifc from Zoot14A (there are a lot of non-story pages still needed to complete the series).
So... what I did was add Hag fc(a 2nd version)+bc, and the ifc (2 versions) to the reprinted story pages from JA12 (ad pages left out), and upped it under Fox Comics.
-
Thanks Len!
I've tweaked the listing just a tad to mention the SOTI connection and removed the old one.
-Yoc
-
Looks good!
Tonight... the first of a pair of Star crime reprint comics:
All-Famous Crime #10 [3rd issue]! (c2c)
We now have 4 of the 5 issues... time for a separate section? Same for Dick Cole? Holiday Comics? We'll get a fifth issue of each eventually!
-
Thanks Len!
I've just added a new section for that title.
-Yoc
-
Thanks!
Apparently I misnamed the title '... second issue' , although the file is correctly named, so now fixed!
-
Thanks for the "fix" Len.
Geo
-
Tonight it's my 2nd Star crime comic - All-Famous Police Cases #9!
I tried but failed to find any reprint info.
-
Thanks for trying Len.
And for the scan of course.
-Yoc
-
Back to my occasional ACG funnies series with Giggle Comics #14!
-
Thanks Len, a nice break from the romance books.
-
It wasn't Nearly as bad as last Valentine's Day.....
And so, back to ACG funnies with Ha Ha #32! (more to come at the end of the month)
-
Thanks Len, keep up the great work.
Geo
-
Some crime-reprint stories tonight in Star's:
All-Famous Police Cases 13!
The ggcbdb info will be minimal since I just added it myself
-
Very nice, thanks for the new scan Len!
:D
-
Eight for the 8th tonight!
All my last 8 acg funnies upped just now (and I don't think I'll try that again...)... 4 Ha Has and 4 Giggles.
Some of the GCD info will be minimal since I added the issue details myself recently.
-
Thanks very much for these surprise scans Len!
:o
-
Finally got the new Jungle #105 uploaded. Missing the cf, so it's borrowed from the prehistoric ae660 scan, as are 2 scans used by yoc to fix a damaged page
-
Thanks for the upgrade. It's a shame you didn't also fix the damage to the indicia on the ifc, but we have the previous scan.
-
Thanks Len!
Happy to help anytime you want it.
-Yoc
-
Tonight, a very-badly-needed pair of rescans of 8-year-old uploads ... my favorite first new superhero of the Silver Age - Mike Sekowsky's Captain Flash! #s 1 & 2.
Both still have incomplete covers.
I was able to dump my old #2, but I need your help to erase the old #1, which goes back to GAC days. Also, it had a nice long comment that maybe you could transfer to the new upload without losing the uploader's credit.
-
Thanks very much Len!
Comment quoted into your new #1 and old one now zapped. :)
-
Just a couple of minor upgrades tonight... paper cf from the new version replacing fiches in Feature 75 (via my CP), and HAG fc&bc + new version's ifc,ibc replacing small & fiche coverscans in Feature 92 (with screenshots added).
But... I need your help to dump my old #92, originally upped by DM I think; thx!
While I'm in the Quality section... there's a nice, new, large, paper Crack 18 at CB+ you can use to replace the old fichescan.
-
Thank you Len, keep them coming. Paper rules.
- Geo
-
A missing Whiz that's been around for a decade now added - #151! ("intenet find")
-
And the first of a few internet-find Whiz upgrades #154!
I also converted it from .cbr to .cbz and added much better fc+bc from HAG
-
Thanks Len as always for the upgrades to the Whiz 154.
- Geo
-
3 more 'internet find' Whiz upgrades tonight: 128 (Aratak's) & 130 (Solvang's) & 149 (also Solvang's)
-
Thanks Len.
I tweaked the names to re-edits to be accurate.
I know a new Whiz 128 will arrive from Titansfan at some point soon.
-Yo
-
Ok... 2 more PS Whiz upgrades tonight, with revised titles - 92 & 97; the upgrades are old.
I got your list of upcoming Whizzzes but I figured you'd be keeping the old 128, so an improved scan would be useful since all I have to do is the upload (with a few minor improvements...).
-
After nearly 1½ months, I'm back with one new page!
It's a fix of Jungle Comics 60... the old upload was missing the 5th Wambi page (it had a duplicate Simba pg). (done via my CP).
Also, I copied a missing upload from CB+: Master 132 (it's a fiche-replacement)
-
Thanks Len!
-Yoc
-
3 more weeks have passed... and I've upped an all-paper Marvel Family 30! (fiche replacement)
-
Thanks Len!
:D
-
Coming soon from a scanner on my desk:
Whiz 24; Broncho Bill 10; Crime Fighting Detective 13!
-
Sounds great! Looking forward to them Len.
:)
-
Tonight -- a series completer! - Broncho Bill 10!
(but one issue still needs cover scans & one is a Canadian edn)
-
Thanks very much Len!
-
ANd tonight it's a nice early paper Whiz Comics to replace the old fiche - #24!
but my copy is coverless, so the fc&bc are from the old dark HAG, and the ifc&ibc are from the old darkmark fiche!
-
If you want an all-paper scan, you can borrow the ifc and ibc from Master #21, as it has the same ads.
-
Thanks Len for another upgrade for the site.
- Geo
-
Upping my BronchoBill 10 made me look at my earlier BB efforts, and I've upgraded 2 Very Old (7½ years!) scans:
BB#13 now has a Much better fc, and the ifc & bc are now added (still missing the ibc);
and BB #11 is now a new, Much better c2c scan.
(both done via my CP)
-
to the Moose:
Thanks; when I was checking to see if I could find paper scans, I assumed the mostly-fiche M21 had fiche inside-covers.
-
Thanks very much Len!
I've reset the upload date on those so they appear at the top of the Latest Uploads list again.
:)
Upping my BronchoBill 10 made me look at my earlier BB efforts, and I've upgraded 2 Very Old (7½ years!) scans:
BB#13 now has a Much better fc, and the ifc & bc are now added (still missing the ibc);
and BB #11 is now a new, Much better c2c scan.
(both done via my CP)
-
OK; I'll try to remember to do it (but at least I'm remembering the gcdb #s! ;) )
Also, a minor upgrade to my Whiz 24 thx to info from A. N. Moose - 'paper' ifc & ibc from the Master 21 scan (but the ibc is a b&w, trimmed scan, so I kept DM's fiche version too).
-
Thanks Len, no problem on these, I'm happy to help and it's not uncommon I have to add GCD id#s, etc.
Part of the job even. :)
-
Next - for my final new upload (for now) - Star's all-reprint Crime-Fighting Detective #13!, with re-colored stories, in order, from Law Against Crime 1 (the only issue not currently on DCM); Target v1n4; 4Most v4n3; and Young King Cole v2n3.
(I was hoping to be able to cheat and just copy the pages from old uploads, but as I mentioned, the coloring is diferent :'( )
-
Thanks Len!
I've also corrected a couple of other issues so all their titles match and they list in a proper order.
-
Tonight, a crime special: All-Famous Crime #9! - a series finisher (although it continues as All-Famous Police Cases).
By the way... you can get the 5 issues in proper order (8,9,10,4,5) by re-naming #s '04' & '05' as '4' & '5'.
-
Thanks Len, I'll get that fixed asap.
:)
-
I got the idea from the Other Site.
-
A very minor upgrade tonight: DM's old fiche of Startling 29 now with paper scans of fc&bc (HAG), ifc&ibc from other comics; and pg1 (on-line auction)
-
Thanks for the upgrade Len.
:)
-
Uploaded tonight: rescans of Wings 19 & 25, originally added 8¼ years ago!
You'll need to dump the oldies; they were probably upped back then by yoc.
-
Done. Yep, there was a year or so back then when only staff could add books to the site. Things have gotten much better since then.
Thanks very much for the upgrades Len.
-
Tonight, what I thought would be a new addition when I bought it - Chesler's Riggin' Bill #1, but there's already a version titled "Adventures of Riggin' Bill #1". That one has 2-page scans (it's digest-sized), but mine has single-page scans.
-
Thanks Len, your scan is a huge upgrade for this book.
I've removed the other one.
-Yoc
-
2 new ad pages + a back cover tonight! - added to darwination's old upload of Terrors of the Jungle 21.
It's still missing the ibc.
And... more added ad pages, this time for Terrors of the Jungle 17.
My upload has fc&bc from HAG; original, but smallish, scans of the ifc (first story page), ibc, and two inner ad pages (all found on the 'net); and I copied the rest of the story pages from the current Rulah 21, except the text story which is unavailable (according to the gcbdb, the text story was reprinted too).
-
Thanks for all your work on these Len.
:D
-
And another "member-made compilation".
This time it's Terrors of the Jungle 18, which is a complete reprint of Jo-Jo #23, with the first page (unfortunately originally on the ifc) and an ad page omitted; and of course new covers.
Again, the fc&bc are from HAG; but i couldn't find any auction scans of the interior pages except for a small, very-partial ifc+pg1 spread. So... the ifc, ibc and a last-page ad are missing. All 31 story pages are copied from the Jo-Jo comic.
I've included the missing first-story page 1 (with indicia removed) for the sake of story-completeness.
-
And yet another "member-made compilation".
This time it's Jungle Thrills 16, which is a complete reprint of All Top 15, with only an ad page omitted; and of course new covers.
Again, the fc&bc are from HAG; I did find a smallish scan of the ifc, so only the last-page ad & the ibc are missing. All 31 interior story pages are copied from the All Top comic.
This comic preceeds Terrors of the Jungle 17-21 and I believe should be in the same section, but I know dcm likes to have separate sections when the title changes (most of the time) even if the contents don't. So, it's in with the misc titles.
-
Great work Len!
Thanks for sharing them here. :)
-
And another mash-up (aka compilation) tonight: Terrors of the Jungle 8!
As with almost all issues from 19 on, this has reprints from different comics plus an original story. The latter is unscanned but I found an auction with page1 and another with the pg32-ad; also with fc,ifc,ibc,bc from assorted sources.
So, it's missing 11 pages: the rest of the original story, a text story, and assorted ads.
-
This time it's a re-mash of an old reverse-mash-up (that's reprints used to compile an original comic) -- Jo-Jo 16!
The first story was reprinted in TotJ 19 which is also unscanned, so it's still unavailable.
This time I've included Both reprints of the 3rd story (from TotJ 4 & IW's JAdv).
And I also found scans of the original 3 splash pages so those are now added.
As before, fc+bc from HAG; still missing the rest of the 1st story, text story & ad pages.
-
Thanks again Len!
-
Finally, back to new stuff!
Something different tonight - a first for DCM - an Essankay comic (a publisher that managed to publish all of 4 comics!) - Law Against Crime #3! (final issue)
It was on Doc Wertham's naughty list, so maybe that's when Essankay decided to fold.
-
Very cool! Thanks Len.
-
On Law Against Crime #3, be sure to look at the back cover. Some 'dealer' wrote at the top "1948 $300."
-
Done and removed!
- Geo
-
Didn't notice that; I paid about 10% of that.
-
After a long dry spell (for me)... a new Novelty: Criminals on the Run v5n1! (the 3rd-last missing issue; still need v4 #s 4&7)
-
Thanks Len!
:D
-
Tonight it's another 3rd-last missing issue: Real Life Comics #18! (Nedor Comics) (still need 3 & 20)
-
Thanks Len!
-
Tonight... another #18... the earliest missing Capt Midnight!
Complete, except the bottom 1/3 of 2 pages has been torn off, affecting all of Johnny Blair and a CapMid splash page..
-
Thanks very much Len!
-
Next in my current series, it's the latest-number missing issue of Crime Does Not (seriously?) Pay - #144!.
This competes the portion of the run from 118 to the end.
-
Thanks for the CDNP, Len. I'd forgotten that it survived into the Comics Code Atrocity era. Also did not know that Pete Morisi worked for them.
-
Thanks Len, great job!
- Geo
-
Another one off the wanted list, thanks Len!
-
That one was more popular than I expected!
Tonight, sticking with crime, which obviously does pay in comicbookdom, it's a first issue (in name only):
a Star reprint: Crime Fighting Detective #11!
(a continuation from their Criminals on the Run #10)
That's my last hole-filler for now; next, a few Fawcett & FictionHouse upgrades.
-
Very cool! Thanks again Len!
-
Tonight it's the first of 2 Marvel Family diff-ver-upgrades -- #68!
-
Tonight it's the first of 2 Marvel Family diff-ver-upgrades -- #68!
This one nicely compliments the issue of Wow Comics just shared. Thanks!
-
Thanks Len, keep'em coming.
- Geo
-
And tonight it's the second of my 2 Marvel Family diff-ver-upgrades -- #71!
with great patchwork by Yoc! (large top-corner pices were torn from the first four pages of my copy)
-
Thanks to Len and Yoc for this one. Very welcome.
- Geo
-
A quartet of Rangers Comics diff-ver upgrades of ancient ae660 uploads!: 46, 54, 64, & 65!
-
Thanks Len for all those "Rangers" redo's.
- Geo
-
Yep, many thanks for these better versions Len.
:)
-
Thanks, guys!
Forgot to add... that's the last of my current offerings. No new ones in sight yet.
-
Since I have nothing better to do right now (scan-wise), I thought it might be time to do some Novelty upgrades to my 8-to-9 year old uploads, starting with: Target v5n8!
-
Thanks for the upgrades Len.
-
Thanks for the upgrades Len.
Indeed!! Novelty comics are always fun.
-
My next Novelty (Targets, for now) upgrade: Target v6n4!
-
My next Novelty (Targets, for now) upgrade: Target v6n3!
-
Thanks again for these Len.
:)
-
And the next Novelty (Targets, for now) upgrade: Target v5n1!
-
Thanks Len for the upgrade.
- Geo
-
And next rescan: Target v6n6!
-
Thanks Len for another upgrade!
- Geo
-
Carrying on... nwxt it's Target v6n4!
This time I eed your help to dump the old one; it must've been anohter upped for me by yoc way back then.
-
Thanks Len, I'll take care of it for you.
- Geo
-
And one last Target upgrade - v8#6!
Next, some Western rescans.
-
Thanks Len, we'll be on the lookout for those westerns.
- Geo
-
So, for my first shoot-em-up rescan: Swift Arrow (1954) #2!
But, once again, I need your assistance to dump the oldie; thx!
-
And my second shoot-em-up rescan: Jesse James #4!
But, yet again, I need your assistance to dump the oldie; thx!
-
Both done. Thanks again Len.
:)
-
So, for my first shoot-em-up rescan: Swift Arrow (1954) #2!
But, once again, I need your assistance to dump the oldie; thx!
Sorta strange to put the Hermit as the cover feature of Swift Arrow's own book. The Lone Rider/Rider books were never standout titles, but still delivered some fun stories.
-
Back over to Ajax-Fafrrell for a Lone Rider #20 rescan-upgrade!
And, yet one more time, i need your help to remove the old version; thx!
-
Thanks for the upgrade Len, and I'll take care of removing the old one.
- Geo
-
And one more Lone Rider - #14! (upgraded via my CP)
That's my last LR rescan. Unfortunately, I can't improve or complete all the inc issues I uploaded back then... they weren't my scans.
-
Back over to Avon Comics for a Partial rescan of Jesse James 18 - the fc & one JJ story (with Joe Kubert art) (and a renaming of all the scans which I originally named as JJ14). The story is a reprint from JJ #5, but that comic needs an upgrade too (I don't have it).
The rest of the comic is reprinted from the Teddy Roosevelt comic which has better scans.
And, yet one more time I need you to dump the old version; thx again!
I also did a cosmetic upgrade of JJ 19 (screenshots & desc); I'm going to rescan at least part of it soon.
-
I have a request. If you are going to post a scan of a book which is actually a composite of reprinted stories taken from other books, as you have done here, can you put something in the issue title to indicate this? It will make it easier for us to identify such issues, so they can be rescanned someday if the entire issue can be found in good condition.
While it's nice to have prettier scans of certain stories all in one file, it doesn't always result in an accurate copy of the book in question. Sometimes there are color, dialog or even artwork changes when a story is reprinted, and many of us find those differences important. Plus, I would already have the reprinted stories as part of the issue they came from, so the replacement pages are duplicates of something I already have.
Thanks for all of your time and work on these and other books :)
-
Thanks Len for both upgrades, (#18 and #19).
- Geo
-
I see 'partial rescan' is in the name now. I think that covers what Moose was asking.
Thanks for the upgrades Len!
:)
-
My partial rescan of Jesse James #19 is now done.
These 2 JJ scans were not compilations using the original-story comics; they're the complete reprint issues but with rescans of the Kubert-JJ stories. My added commentary is that if you want better scans of the the non-JJ stories, you can find them in the original-story comics (the reprints are identical to the originals... not re-colored, etc).
I wasn't going to bother upgrading these 2 comics at all, but in both cases the scans of the original-story JJ comics (#s 5 & 6) also aren't the greatest. If I'd had those comics, I would've rescanned them instead of the reprinted JJ stories in 18 & 19.
-
Thanks Len, keep'em coming.
- Geo
-
Now it's time to say goodbye to all of 2018...
with the end of a series: Singing Guns! (one of the 7 unnumbered ones)... the last of 21 Fawcett Movie comics (but one cf is still needed, for #14).
Happy MMXIX to all!
-
Always a good day when a title is completed! (mostly)
Thanks very much for all you've done to make DCM such a great site Len.
Here's to an even better 2019 for everyone.
:)
-

As a fan of Vaughn Monroe I was happy to see this issue. Maybe I'll see the film sometime.
Unfortunately, page five reappears as page seventeen. Otherwise a fine scan.
-
Well, I'm 0-for-1 for the year! Repair coming up soon.
I became a Monroe fan, mainly because of his Ghost Riders in the Sky... maybe that recording's popularity is what got Republic to star him in a Western.

Monroe's version of Ghost Riders was far and away the best, but Gene Autry did it before him. Saw Vaughn sing it live in a duet with a local St. Louis TV host circa the late 1960's.
-
Repair done!
Next:
On the 10th day (EST) of Christmas, my scanner gave to me:
Wow Comics #11! (I was going to wait for 11th day, but decided to get it uploaded).
It's either a 'diff ver', or a replacement for PS's old small scan.
Unfortunately, my copy is coverless and missing 2 outer wraps, so:
fc & bc are from HAG, and the ifc, ibc & the 2 ows are borrowed from PS's scan.
-
Very nice! Thanks for sharing it Len.
:D
-
Thanks Len!
Yet another early issue of Wow Comics. So glad to see the issues posted recently. Wow is often an under appreciated Fawcett title.
-
Sticking with Fawcett... it's off to the Navy for:
Don Winslow #39!
(the 3rd-last missing issue)
-
Thanks very much Len!
:)
-
and over to the female side of Fawcett for:
Nyoka #3! (a replacement for, or diff ver of, PS's old small scan)
-
Nicely done Len.
:)
-
for my final (for now) Fawcett addition, it's over to the western division with as early missing issue:
Rocky Lane #12!
-
Thanks for wrangling up that missing issue Len.
;)
-
According to Krack, I shouldn't have bothered because there's a "MUCH better" [his caps] scan on the way from titansfan. Oh, well... I better carry on...
So, tonight, more controversy: I've added the last of the permitted issues of Dell's The Funnies (#57)... unfortunately you've blocked access to the section, so I added it to the misc Dell section.
-
Thanks Len, always appreciated by the way.
Geo
-
Thanks Len and I moved The Funnies to the proper folder.
-
And now for something completely different (for me, anyway):
Avon's Peter Rabbit 12!
(my first of 2 issues)
-
;D Carrying on:
Tonight it's my second & last Peter Rabbit - #11!
-
Thanks again Len
:)
-
Next, to a section that was the first one I ever contributed to, long ago when 'freddyfly' was first created (over 12 years ago!) in the gac days: an upgraded version of The Barker #8!
(some of those old jonthe scanner uploads were my old scans; original credit was lost in a big crash years ago)
-
A bit late (sorry, yoc): 3 badly needed Fiction House upgrades of really old scans (ae660 & goldenager's):
Fight 64 and Jungles 97 & 104!
(all are diff vers, not rescans)
-
Thanks Very Much Len. It's a great update for this month!
-Yoc
-
Tew new FH upgrade-rescans for March: Jungle 95 & Firehair 10!
(done via my CP)
-
Wonderful!
Thank very much for doing these upgrade scans Len.
:)
-
Tew new FH upgrade-rescans for March: Jungle 95 & Firehair 10!
(done via my CP)
Very nice upgrades. Thank you Len!
-
Happy ninth!
For an anniversary upload, I went for a quality scan, or I should say, a Quality scan that I've wanted for a Long time, and it turned up at eBay just in time (relatively cheap thanks to a missing bc)...
Feature Comics #30! to replace the 12¼-year old fiche (we still need 32 & 33).
It barely arrived in time, thanks to Priority post, so the scan is a little late, but at this moment it's still Mar 28 from Mountain Time west to the Dateline!
-
Great stuff Len, many thanks.
Dave
-
Thanks Len, a great book to share on our big day!
:)
-
Tonight it's over to Fiction House for 1¼ Jungle upgrades:
the "1" is a complete rescan of #147; the "¼" is a rescan of the non-story pages of #146 (the rest was redone a few years back).
-
Thanks, Len.
Upgrades are always worth having.
-
Thanks!
And now over to Magazine Enterprises for a new series of rescan-upgrades of Tim Holt issues strarting with #8!
-
Next in my series of Tim Holt rescans: #4!
(I've deleted the old one)
-
Thanks Len!
-
My Tim Holt rescan series now moves into the Ghost Rider era with #13! (done via my CP)
The difference with these is that I rescanned the GR stories a few years back, so now I'm adding the rest of the comic(s). This makes them "rescan - upgrade"s, if that's ok with you.
-
Same info as the previous posting, except tonight it's #14!
-
Got another one done tonight: #15!
This one, however, is a new version (with my ugly front cover).
The old upload was orignally a Kingfaraday scan that I upgraded by adding the missing cf and my new scans of Ghost Rider (but I left it as a .cbr), so I leave it to you if you want to keep it as a 'diff ver'.
-
Great work Len!
-
My last two Tim Holt c2c-rescans completed tonight: #s 18 & 19
(Now, if only I could find a cheap #34)
-
Internet finds tonight -- a c2c tripple-dripple:
Horace and Dotty Dripple #s 34, 38, & 41!
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
I finally have something new of my own to add...
Ajax's Captain Jet #5!
-
Two upgrades to ancient (13-year-old!) ae660 scans tonight - the last 2 Rangers issues - #s 68 & 69
(one more to get - #60)
-
Thanks very much Len!
:D
-
Tonight it's a diff-ver upgrade for a 10½-year old Feature Comic - #102!
-
A minor upgrade tonight - a HAG bc added to the new Jumbo 14 upgrade, plus a bunch of screenshots.
-
2 months after my last new missing-issue upload, Captain Jet #5, another Captain Jet - #2!
(and some Kerry Drakes on the way)
-
Thanks very much Len!
-
Tonight it's ME's Kerry Drake #3!
but... missing the cf, and with a damaged front page.
(is 3 out of the 5 issues enough for a new section?)
-
Thanks Len. I like to stick to four books for a section.
:)
-
Continuing my Kerry Drake flood (well... 4 issues all together) with #14!
Complete; includes Powell's Kitty Carson.
-
Continuing my Kerry Drake flood (well... 4 issues all together) with #14!
Complete; includes Powell's Kitty Carson.
That Kitty Carson story is a fine example of Powell's mastery of both wild western action and humor, at the same time. This one even has a pretty positive Chinese character.
-
A one-page upgrade tonight... paper ifc replacing fiche in Crash Comics #1!
(from ebay - a House of Brian find)
-
and a new diff-ver of one of oldWayne's very old upload of very, very old Quality comic:
Feature Comics #35!
My copy is missing the cf, so those scans are from his 12½-year old scan.
-
Wow, thanks very much Len!
:D
-
A Kerry Drake double-feature tonight: #s 27 & 29!
-
Nice! Thanks very much Len.
:)
-
A bit of a cheat tonight... Kerry Drake #20 with a fc from HAG & all story pages Copied from the reprint in Chamber of Clues 28 (minus the statement of ownership).
-
As you've probably noticed by now, upped yesterday: it's Supermouse #45! - a diff ver of bchat's 9-year-old scan.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Starting a new series of uploads with the first of 5 Kerry Drakes - #15!
-
Very nice, thanks Len!
-
Naxt... Kerry Drake #16!
-
:)
-
Tonight, as we head into September, it's an upgrade to an old Fiction House upload - Fight Comics #84!
-
Thanks for all your work Len!
-
Something different (for me) for pre-new-school-year day:
Avon's Peter Rabbit #6!
-
Next in my Kerry Drake series - #30!
...a diff ver, or a replacement, for the old very-inc upload.
-
Thanks Len, that one certainly needed the upgrade.
-
Tonight it's over to Star Pubs for another reprint (but re-coloured) comic - Thrilling Crime Cases 43! (but the first story's origin is unknown)
-
Tonight, the 4th of my Kerry Drake quintet - #25!
-
Thanks for these Len. :)
-
Tonight, it's over to another section I haven't stepped into before:
Hillman's Punch & Judy v2 #2!
-
The end of my Kerry Drake run tonight with #23!
-
...and for the end of my current cycle of scans, it's over to Fox funny-animals with:
Ribtickler #5!
-
Thanks very much for all your work Len!
:D
-
Oops.. one more 'funny animal' scan - Supermouse #8!
-
Thanks Len.
Another hole filled. :)
-
An upgrade for an old Phabox scan - Fight Comics 83!
The section info needs a bit of help. It says:
"Still fiche or GM: 5, 13, 20
Missing or fiche pages: 6,10,15,22,69,76,79"
but #20 is now a new c2c scan; and 15,22,69,76,79 are all completed paper.
-
... and one more FH upgrade, this time for an original nearly-13-year-old ae660 scan: Jungle 94!
-
Thanks very much Len!
I've updated the Fight section info as suggested.
:)
-
At last, a hole I've been hoping to fill for a long time... Famous Funnies 191!
It's c2c, since BuckRogers' run ended the issue before. He's replaced by Barney Carr (who?), who lasted all of 2 issues. Maybe 191's cover was supposed to feature Bucky, and had to be changed to Barney.
-
Thanks Len!
Yeah, it has the looks of a Buck cover doesn't it?
-
One more Kerry Drake - #22!
-
Over to Star comics tonight with Thrilling Crime Cases #46!
(4 or the 9 issues now upped; maybe a new section in preparation for the next one (or two or three or more?)
-
Thanks Len.
I've added the new section as suggested.
:)
-
Nice!
Now it's time to upgrade some 9-year-old Feature Comics scans with #123 & 127! ("diff vers")
-
Thanks very much for this double upload Len!
:)
-
...and I found one of my own ancient Feature uploads that needed rescanning - #116!
(replaced using the CP)
-
...and I found one of my own ancient Feature uploads that needed rescanning - #116!
(replaced using the CP)
Len, just read the Doll Man story. Downright beautiful scan. The issue was published when I was about ten months old.
-
Crime update!
Now upped... Crime Does Not Pay 69, a bigger&better 'diff ver' of a 10½-year-old scan.
The fc is somewhat damaged, but HAG has been off line for a while, and I couldn't find a clean large scan anywhere else.
-
Thanks Len!
I wasn't aware HA was down. I'm glad I grabbed the covers I needed for future edits from them last week.
-Yoc
-
HAG is finally back, so...
a minor upgrade to the ancient GM Jo-Jo 21 scan, with HAG fc&bc replacing the old scans, and 6 pages from auctions added (GMs not dumped).
Also, I copied your original description from the old upload.
-
Thanks Len. It's been a quiet few days.
-Yoc
-
While browsing through the Airboy section for no special reason, I found 2 of my OLD ups that were never upgraded by anybody, so here's one of them: v7 #9!
-
Thanks for the re-scan, Len.
Just sorry there's no Heap story. Think I'll write to the editor about that! ;)
-
Thanks for the rescan Len!
;D
-
...and here's the second one, a Heap-ful issue, Airboy v7#7!
-
...and here's the second one, a Heap-ful issue, Airboy v7#7!
This one is an even better issue. Thank you!
-
Continuing my rescan follies:
Many, many years ago, I upped the whole set of M.E.'s Best of the Wests, but without ad pages. Years later, I re-scanned (improved) and "c2c"d them... except for #9, for which fan777 supplied the ad pages, so I never rescanned it..., until now (as they say)!
(done via my CP, so oldie is gone).
-
Thanks Len.
And I just mentioned 'Mr Goldenage' in another post. Another member that has sadly passed away like 'Fan777' (Carl) has sadly done.
-Yoc
-
Tonight, an upgrade Thousands have been begging for... it's:
Atomic Rabbit #3!
(a diff ver of bchat's 9-year-old upload)
-
Tonight, something new instead of another upgrade or rescan:
Kerry Drake #10!
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
It's been a long time since I added to Novelty pubs, so tonight it's a hole-filler:
Criminals on the Run v4 #7! (no ifc or ibc)
-
Thank you, Len. That issue of Criminals on the Run is notoriously hard to find.
-
It's been a long time since I added to Novelty pubs, so tonight it's a hole-filler:
Criminals on the Run v4 #7! (no ifc or ibc)
Doing a search of completed eBay auctions, I have found images for the ifc and ibc. The ifc is a "letters to the editor" page, and is too low quality to be used. However, the ibc is an ad, and has been ID'ed as the same ad as Guns Against Gangsters v1n5. I am attaching that page here, so that it can be added to the download.
-
Thanks! I'll add it soon.
Tonight it's back to my Kerry Drake series with #32! (it's now titled Kerry Drake Racket Buster)
-
Thank you, Len. That issue of Criminals on the Run is notoriously hard to find.
ALso the Cole covers make them too expensive; I was happy to find a cheap coverless one.
-
The 'fish to head' covers are extra expensive to buy! :-\ :-X
-
:) Tonight, as my Christmas gift-scan it's another in my years-long project to replace the Old, sometimes ugly, fiches of early Feature Comics - #32!
(missing the cf, which is why I could afford it, so the cf is from the very old, dark, fuzzy fiche, with some editing)
Only one more to go - #33!
-
Bonus upload - thx to Titansfan via yoc, Feature 72 is now c2c (and with screenshots)! (5 scans added - ifc, text, ibc,bc)
-
Thanks again Len for all your work on these and your rescans!
It's nice to see some fiche scans I can retire.
-Yoc
-
and more Feature Comics, this time a somewhat larger 'diff ver' of #112.
-
Thanks Len, looks great! :)
-
I decided it was time to upgrade my ancient upload of bhcomics' Thrilling 22: now with HAG fc&bc; paper ow from movielover's almost-as-old scan to replace fiches; screenshots; and the rest as before.
...and I need your help to dump my 9 3/4 year old upload; thx!
-
Thanks Len, consider the old one gone.
:D
-
a small fix to finish 2019... Whirlwind #1 had 2 pages transposed (45 & 46)... now un-transposed!
(and a better HAG fc&bc, and now with screenshots).
-
With nothing else to contribute right now, it's time to upgrade some of my old Novelty uploads, starting with the final issue - Blue Bolt v10 #2!
-
Thanks Len!
-
Next, a 64-pager Target v4 n5!
-
A very nice scan, Len. Thank You!
I do love seeing new, or upgraded scans of Target Comics.
-
Thanks!
Here's one more of my oldies that badly needed improving - Target v4 #7!
-
Automatically hit the Download button, thanks!
-
Well, that's it for Targets, so back to Blue Bolt rescans with v9 #2!
(...and I need your help to dump the old one; thx!!)
-
I never enjoyed Blue Bolt as much as Target.
Still, Novelty knew how to tell good stories. Sgt. Spook is my favorite strip in the later Blue Bolts. (I first met Spook in the Super/IW reprints.)
Thanks!
-
Tonight -- plugging the last hole in a long run - Supermouse #40!
(but #38 [correction] still needs inside-covers)
-
I wish you had checked the Wanted List (https://digitalcomicmuseum.com/forum/index.php/topic,6943.0.html) on this site. You would have seen that #40 was already awaiting scan by me. Also, it's #38, not #39, which needs covers, and I also purchased that. I'll be scanning both of these soon.
Another quick note. On this site, issue #29 is listed as being c2c, but there are only 32 pages present. I'm not sure which pages are missing, but it's also a very small scan, and could be rescanned. The wanted list already indicates that this book is incomplete.
-
A 'diff ver' upgrade tonight for an Old upload: Tim Holt #2!
-
Thanks Len.
I've cleaned up the Supermouse section removing very small versions when a larger one exists. I've also marked #29 as incomplete.
-Yoc
-
Over to one of the early conservationists: Pines' Mark Trail #1!
(a 1955 one-shot)
-
Tonight the first of my new batch, filling a last empty hole: Sniffy da Pup #8!
and an upgrade thx to yoc & oher dcm-ers: America's Best #8, now with 4 fiches instead of 8!
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
Filling an empty spot tonight: Kerry Drake 13!
with more of Powell's Kitty Carson.
-
In addition to the headliner, Drake, a Bob Powell western story is usually a great change of pace.
Thanks, Len!
-
A minor upgrade tonight - paper ifc & ibc added to my 9-year-old National #10 thx to nonnymoose.
-
Tonight, a 'diff ver' upgrade to phabox's 12-year-old Hit Comics #54!
-
Thanks Len!
-
Some Canadian content tonight... the Can edn of Feature Comics 141
(but numbered 140). I wanted to upgrade the US edn, but this was the only copy I could find.
The cover ads are Canadian, but all 32 pages are the same, except the back-page ad's order form is blanked out.
-
A minor upgrade to an old, old scan - Mystery Men #1:
HAG fc replacing a small fc, HAG bc replacing fiche, and 'auction' scans of pgs 1 & 64 replacing fiches.
Pg 1 was damaged and is fixed by yoc!
-
Thanks for the upgrade Len.
:)
-
Forgot to warn you about my latest epic internet find - Comic Land #1! A 1-shot title from a 1-shot publisher!
-
Great find Len, thanks for sharing it with us here.
:D, :)
-
A minor virus-free, gluten-free, organic, non-GMO upgrade tonight to my old Crack Comics 25 upload:
now with Much better ifc & ibc from Titansfan to replace GM scans.
-
Thanks Len and TF.
Take care (I really mean it),
-Yoc
-
Well, it took me over 1½ months, but I finally got a new "hole-filler', the earliest missing Joe Palooka - #35!
-
Very good, thanks Len!
-
Got some new stuff to add, starting with Kerry Drake #18! with Powell's Kitty Carson.
2 issues to go!
-
Got some new stuff to add, starting with Kerry Drake #18! with Powell's Kitty Carson.
2 issues to go!
Great issue. The Drake story fit the comic well. Powell's Kitty Carson is always fun.
-
This time it's the earliest missing Peter Rabbit - #5!
-
Thanks Len!
-
Tonight, it's another flying-rodent comic:
Supermouse #29! (to replace bchat's old, small, inc scan)
-
At last... it's been way too long... a new upload:
Kerry Drake #20!
You can dump the old copied 'reprint', or leave it as a diff ver.
More to come!
-
Thanks very much Len.
Welcome back! We've missed your shares.
:)
-
Tonight it's a series completer:
Boots And Her Buddies #7!
-
Thanks for your latest upload Len!
:)
-
Tonight it's another #7 - ME's Cowboys n Injuns!
But there's nothing new - it's an all reprint issue, and was further reprinted by IW.
Still need #6, the last 'new' issue
Small correction needed in the section description; it now says:
" 1946 Series 1946 - 1947
Issues Published: 8 (#1 - #5) +3 "
but the last 3 issues (also part of the A-1 series) are from 1949-52.
-
Thanks Len, I've fixed it I think. Let me know if I got something wrong.
I notice you're using CBR files which is fine but if possible CBZ is preferred by both sites. But whatever works best for you, we're just happy to see you posting again. It feels a little more like 'normal', something very much missing since covid took over the world.
Stay healthy!
-Yoc
-
More 'funny animals' tonight with a 'hole-filler': Peter Rabbit 32!
When i uploaded, I made sure the filename is still ...cbz, so if it switches to .cbr, I don't know what's happening. Maybe it's The Virus.
-
It's sure is odd Len. I just uploaded a giveaway by Narstar as a cbz and it remained a cbz.
-Yoc
-
Tonight it's a diff-ver upgrade in a section of mainly 12-year-old uploads that hasn't been added to for 10 years:
ME's Danl Boone #1! (by the way, it should be Dan'l)
and, my upload is .cbz! (and will be from now on)
-
Thanks Len!
Yeah, we discourage uploading any files with an apostrophe in the file name. The software will choke on them and not finish the upload.
-Yoc
-
Weird. It's ok at cb+.
Anyway... you missed changing the first of my new batch - Kerry Drake 20 - so it's now done.
Thanks for fixing the others!!!
-
Oh, sorry about that Len. Thanks for the fix.
Stay healthy!
-Yoc
-
I've uploaded a new Holiday Comics #2 with original fc&bc added to the reprinted stories from the old upload (& converted to cbz). Original ifc,ibc & 2 ad pages missing.
If you need it, the gcbd's code# for the reprint is 315021.
-
Ah got it. Thanks Len!
:)
-
Thanks to info from a CB+er, I deleted my compiled "original" Holiday #2. The stories in Accepted's #2 are Not from the original #2, but from the original #4 (you can use Preview check this out).
-
While I'll have no new stuff for a while, I can finally get back to a years-old chore I've been putting off -- upgrading many of my decade-old Blue Bolts, starting tonight with v6#8!
(I replaced the old scan via my CP & added screenshots)
-
Very nice! Thanks for taking on this upgrade project Len.
:)
-
Next... same message as above, this time it's vol4#3!
-
and one more ... tonight it's vol 8 #8!
Minor help needed... I upped an upgrade of BBolt v9#2 back in January, but I just found that my old version (which I can't delete) is still there; could you dump it? Thx!
-
Next BlueBolt rescan: v4n5! (done via my CP).
I also did a minor upgrade to v7#3 (since someone else has already upped a better version)... changed the filename to .cbz, removed old out-of-date info, and added screenshots (I kept the original upload date).
Also, pls dump my ancient v9n2 upload (I can't); I upped a new one last Jan;
and, same for my old v5n5.. I upped an upgrade over 3 years ago!
Thx!
-
Thanks Len.
I've deleted the two you mentioned were old.
-Yoc
-
Continuing my project... tonight it's BlueBolt v7n1! (via CP)
(and the missing ifc is finally added)
-
Onward, with Vol 5 #1!
This time, I need your help to dump the oldie; many thx!
-
Thanks Len. Old one gone.
-
To start 2021 (43x47 for prime-number fans) it's a redone BlueBolt v3 #11!
-
Thanks Len.
Now lets all hope it's a better year that last!
-
Tonight it's a rescan of vol 10 #1! (via my CP)
-
and an update of BB v4#5 with 2 'imperfect' scans replaced.
-
Onward... BB v8#9 rescanned! (via my CP)
-
Len, thanks for all your work on the Blue Bolt re-scans.
While I much prefer its companion mag, Target Comics, I always make sure to read Sgt. Spook in Blue Bolt. BTW, I first. met Spook in the IW / Super-Comics books in the late 1950's and early '60's.
-
Thanks!
next rescan... BB v5#3! (via my CP)
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
A very minor upgrade tonight... a so-so scan (from an auction) of pg34 of Fox's Fantastic #21 now added; still need pg31 (& the centerfold ad).
-
Tonight it's my last rescan of and Old BlueBolt scan: v4#12! (via CP), with, as always, screenshots added and file now a .cbz instead of a .zip.
Next, maybe some Young King Coles (lots to do!).
-
Also... I noticed Popular 38 was never upped, so I've added it (minus the Tarzan text story).
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
Tonight it's my last rescan of and Old BlueBolt scan: v4#12! (via CP), with, as always, screenshots added and file now a .cbz instead of a .zip.
Next, maybe some Young King Coles (lots to do!).
Great scan, Len. Thanks!
However, the Sgt. Spook strip is out of page order. Page 1 is followed by #4, then #2 & #3, then #5. Otherwise I only read the Dick Cole story. That seemed to be in order.
-
Fix coming soon!
-
Another minor upgrade tonight, this time to my 7-year-old scan of Fawcett Movie Comic #14 (Last Outpost). My copy was missing the cf, so I've now added so-so auction scans of3 of the 4 missing pages; page 15 is still needed.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Fix coming soon!
My Preview of the book remained scrambled after the re-upload, so I downloaded the book. The Sgt. Spook story is indeed now in proper order.
Great scan! Thanks…
-
And so it begins... tonight the first of over a dozen Young King Cole rescans - v2#2!
-
Thanks Len!
I'm enjoying the new scans. :)
-
My BlueBolt v4#12 seems to be getting twisted around.
When I first uploaded it, the SgtSpook pages were out of order this way: 1-4-2-3-5-6-7. I fixed the file & re-upped it, but the Preview order was still wrong.
But now the Preview shows the pages in this order: pgs 1-2-2-3-5-6-7! No page 4! (but the file itself is still ok).
????
-
Next rescan: YKC v2#3!
-
My BlueBolt v4#12 seems to be getting twisted around.
Hi Len,
When you are uploading a re-edit be sure to check both the 'reset date' and 'reset thumbnail' buttons. I believe that should fix the thumbnails. But I've found the Preview should still show the book in the proper order as your new scan.
I just checked the Sgt Spook for this book in Preview and they are in the proper order, no pages missing.
-Yoc
-
Next YKC rescan: v2#4!
-
and another: v2#5!
-
Thanks Len!
-
Next, v2#6!
It's, of course, the same warped-page comic; the scanner's light creates shadowing on almost every page.
-
Tonight I start on YKC vol 3 with #2!
-
Tonight I start on YKC vol 3 with #2!
I really appreciate the YKC rescans!
-
Thanks!
next YKC: v3#4!
-
...continuing with ykc v3#6!
-
..moving right along with ykc v3#7!
-
Thanks again Len.
:)
-
..moving right along with ykc v3#7!
Another excellent scan of a fine issue. Thanks!
-
Many thanks!
Carrying on with ykc v3#8!
-
Gradually approaching the end with ykc v3#9!
-
Tonight it's ykc v3#10!
-
Thanks Len!
-
And now for ykc v3#11!
The finish line is in sight!
-
Hi Len,
Very nice upgrade scans!
Will you continue the YKC adventures with Criminals On The Run?
Bob
-
YKC v3#12 finally done! (partly with my old, dearly-departed scanner, and partly with a new one, so there's some colour variation.
-
Welcome back Len!
:)
-
A rescan of a #1 for the 11th anniversary: Tim Holt (aka A1#14)!
I also have a couple of Prize Westerns to rescan, and a few new items on the way from Texas!
-
I saw comments about my last YKC's Preview not working, and indeed it wasn't, so I dumped my upload & re-upped directly (not via CP)
-
Oh, thanks for doing that Len. We hadn't gotten to figure out just what was going on there.
Thanks for the Prize Western news. Several of them could use a new version.
-Yoc
-
A Prize Western rescan tonight -#100; there's only one other I can add (soon) - #112
-
Thanks Len!
I hope to continue my re-edits someday on several from this title.
-
PCW 112 rescan now upped!
-
Thanks Len!
-
It's been a Long time for me since a FH upload, so... tonight it's a Jungle 62 rescan!, with new screenshots.
(old upload is dumped)
Also a slightly improved #73 with new cover scans (all 4 sides)
-
Thanks very much Len!
:D
-
A 2-year-old cb+ find!! A c2c, diff ver of Humphrey #21!(narfstar scan)
-
Thanks Len. :)
-
Time to upgrade a few of my old FamFunnies inc uploads using the New Versions;
tonight it's #153!
-
...and tonight, it's issues 42 & 63!
-
Thanks Len!
-
I found one of my old FamFuns that needed upgrading: #151...
Now rescanned, and with the missing cf added from kainz's upload, which can deleted since he had added his cf to my old scan.
-
Done, thanks very much Len.
:)
-
Tonight, a very, very, very, very, very, very, etc. partial hole-filler:
Famous Funnies 81: the fc & bc and 4-page ISO origin story only! (a blog find)
-
Thanks for the find Len.
:)
-
... and a minor upgrade to FamFun 90 - ifc (tilted) & bc now added.
Still need ibc, and one missing Sky Roads page (2 scans).
-
It's been a long while, but I've come up with a new #1 hole-filler: Little Max!
-
Thanks, Len.
Love the idea of having the original art for the cover as the first page.
-
Thanks! but I don't deserve any credit. DCM's sequencing appears to be different than Windows'. On my end (in both the .cbz and the file folder), the cover is listed first followed by the art, so I thought it would show up that way on dcm (same for cb+).
-
Hi Len,
Yeah, the site can be unpredictable. It's why I always suggest two digit numbers at the front of file names.
It eliminates most complications due to file name conventions being different between users and their machines.

-
A minor upgrade - darkmark's old fiche of National 12 now with paper fc&bc (hag), and a few smallish paper pages from an old auction.
-
A couple of internet uploads tonight -
Eastern's Dickie Dare #2 (was never copied over from cb+),
and a NZ version of an Eastern strip - Trans-Tasman's Steve Roper #3.
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
A somewhat-better rescan tonight of FamFunnies 188, with a bc added.
-
Very nice, thanks again Len!
-
Having nothing better to do (scan-wise), I've uploaded the f&b covers (sometimes 2 versions), with a few splash pages, of all 6 missing issues of Trojan's Crime Mysteries, a very hard-to-find and Very expensive series.
Scans are courtesy of HAG end eBay.
-
Hi Len,
Ha, we must be thinking about the same thing... books missing on DCM!
I'm currently redoing our Wanted List banner updating the books highlighted in the banner.
For you new uploads all I'd ask is to include this message -
If anyone owns this comic PLEASE consider scanning it for the site or letting a trusted scanner do the work for you. You can use the CONTACT US link if you need help.
-DCM Staff
-
I'd like to, but somebody already did!
-
An upgrade to the 9½-year Speed 32 upload: it's missing 3 cfs, but I've added the original art of 9 of the 12 pages: all 4 Biff Bannons (small scans!), and 5 of the 7 Black Cats (still need pages 2 & 6).
Also, although the description was correct, the file names weren't: the scan's title said 2 cfs missing, and the pages after the missing part were numbered as though the comic had 60 pages, so I renumbered them.
If this is acceptable, the original upload can be deleted.
-
Almost 3 months since I've been here...
and I have only one page to add: a complete Terry Thunder page 1 from Jungle 34. Half of the page was torn off in my comic (and I returned it, so I was never able to rescan it).
The added page is from an eBay auction and is not flat.
-
Thanks Len!
I reset the upload date so it appears again at the top of the Latest Uploads list.
-
2 more months of Covid gone by...
and an internet 'find' - a Charlton promotional Freddy #2!
-
Thanks again Len.
:)
-
After 8 years, finally an ifc (page 1) for Fox's Western Thrillers 2 - from eBay, a so-so scan.
Also Canadian fc & bc added for fun.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Tonight, a messy mix of scans making up a near-complete Star's Blue Bolt 105
Pages from the 1-story original upload, hag, ebay, and 3 stories copied from the original Novelty printings.
I might do something similar for the all-reprint 106, 107 & 109 which are totally missing from dcm.
-
BluBolt 109 now done - fc,bc from HAG; ifc & 3 pages from eBay; rest of all 4 stories from Novelty issue scans.
-
Thanks Len.
I hope you don't mind, I tweaked these last two listings.
Just to be clear that they are recreations in the titles as well as the descriptions. Fingers crossed the originals show up some day.
:)
-
Tonight it's a re-creation of BlueBolt 107.
I added all the notes, etc. you suggested.
This upload has 107's fc,ifc,bc and 6 pages (and a Canadian bc). The rest is from the original Novelty comics (massive re-coloring); 2 pages & ibc are missing.
-
Thanks Len!
-
Hi,
I added JPalooka 61 for the anniversary but couldn't see a way to add it to the special section
-
Hi Len,
Yeah, that's a staff only section for uploads.
But your book is on the site on our big day and we appreciate it and all the work you've done for DCM over our history and our pre-DCM days of GAC.
Hang in there,
-Yoc
-
ah, yes... the pre-historic days, back to 2006 wasn't it? 16 years!!
I found a recent internet upload that I hope the uploader wasn't planning to add here:
Babe Ruth Sports #5!
-
Thanks Len!
Yep, it's been a long time. :)
John Smallberries never uploads his scans here. I usually do it for him so thanks for handling it.
Stay well,
-Yoc
-
An upgrade to an 8¼ year-old Loftypilot upload of National Comics #22:
now with paper centerfold replacing the fiches!
Also screenshots added and .ini file deleted.
You can delete the old upload.
-
Done.
Thanks for the upgrade on this Len!
:)
-
A 1-page upgrade to my 8-year-old Space Ace #5 - the back page ad now added (from another comic) thanks to Dave Hayward's detective work!
-
Thanks guys!
:)
-
..and another upgrade to c2c thanks to DaveH's complex detective work:
Cowgirl Romances #8! Also, i added a much better front cover from HAG, and screenshots.
Please delete the 12-year-old (!) upload; it's not in my CP.
-
Done!
Thanks again guys. :D
-
At last, a new hole-filling upload - the 2nd-last missing Kerry Drake - #31!
-
Wonderful!
Thanks for the new scan Len!
:D
-
Tonight it's one I'd been hoping for a Long time to upgrade -- Tim Holt 34, one of the 'original' Mar/08 uploads, badly in need of improvement. It's one of the 2 issues with 'Tales of the Ghost Rider' stories.
-
Tonight it's a new addition to Little Max Comics - #13!
-
Thanks Len!
Nice to see you back at your scanner again.
:)
-
One last new scan for now: the 2nd-last missing Harvey's Humphrey - #17!,
but, It's missing the centerfold, which has 2 ad pages and (probably) some sort of game or activity.
-
Thanks again Len!
:)
-
More Harveys!: Tonight it's Dotty Dripple #12!
Coming soon: Little Max and Rags Rabbit!
-
for my next Harvey , it's Rags Rabbit #14!
-
Thanks for the new books Len!
:D
-
and my last, for now, Little Max 46! (mainly a reprint of #11)
-
Thanks Len, lovely to see you sharing again.
:)
-
I found a batch of odd promotional comics/booklets. Many (most?) are already here, but I've upped one (small scans) that isn't:
Shooting's Fun For Everyone (There's family fun in a gun) !!!
Coming soon: Adventure in Leather!
-
Tonight it's back to Harvey with Joe Palooka #96!
-
Thanks Len, our Harvey Spotlight is off to a great start!
:D
-
and I'm ending (unless there's another last-minute upload) the Quality spotlight with a long-needed rescan of my ugly Dollman #20!
-
Speaking of scans long in need of upgrading...
Tonight I'm ending my long Fiction House drought with a 'diff ver' of the 16-year-old(!) ae660 scan of Jungle Comics #90!
-
Thanks very much Len!
:D
-
Finally upgraded a 16-year-old Feature Comic that I've wanted to for a long time - #140!
featuring the 1st appearance of the ever-popular Stuntman Stetson!, replacing :'( Dollman.
-
Very nice, a pleasant surprise for me this morning.
:)
-
Tonight it's a new Dotty Dripple - #21! Lots more needed.
-
My last effort this time around completes a massive 3-issue series - IW's Sharpy Fox #1!!!
-
Thanks Len!
-
I was doing some 'research' on the Jo-Jo comics and found that the ancient #23 upload included 20 scans form Jungle Adventures 2 & 3 that reprinted jj23 stories. Also it was in .cbr format, so i upped a .cbz version without the reprints, and added screenshots.
-
Thanks Len.
I looked and my copy had the same pages. I suspect I might have been the guilty party. I used to merge reprints with originals, usually when the reprints were easier to read.
The thumbnails always add something to a download, you and BuilderBoy are likely the last two using them.
-Yoc
-
Finally found an old (2017) scan that never made it to dcm (it's also at cb+):
Superior's Secret Romances 011
By the way, since there are 7 issues here, how about a new section?
-
Thanks Len!
And I've created a folder for them as well. :)
-
Nice!
Found another one: Love and Marriage #9 (without the original art).
No new section needed!
-
thanks again Len.
:)
-
Something different tonight - original art for an unpublished Brenda Starr (Superior), supposedly would've been in v2 #13.
-
and more art - My Secret Marriage #7:
The fc&bc with original art of stories 2-4, plus the 4 reprint stories from IW's Love & Marriage #15.
-
Thanks Len.
I'll send you an email soon.
-Yoc
-
2 more partial Superior uploads - fc & bc with original art of 1 story only:
Our Secret 7 & Love and Marriage 10.
-
Thanks Len, I've added to each a plea to any owners out there to scan their book.
-Yoc
-
Tonight it's a re-creation of Blue Bolt Weird Tales 111 ('Blue Bolt 111' in the GCD because that's the indicia title).
Fc & bc, plus: the first story is from a later reprint; the later ones are from the original printings.
-
Thanks Len.
A few of your old scans are getting upgrades by Editor today. Nice to see them completed!
-
Tonight, a re-up of Darwination's 13-year-old upload of Fox's Famous Crimes #8, to correct the thumbnail & Preview sequence; also, to change from cbr to cbz and add screenshots.
-
Thanks Len!
Ouch, how did we miss fixing that one for so long? *blush*
-Yoc
-
maybe big majority of the views were done before Previews
Tonight - Blue Bolt WT 117! - hag fc&dc, incomplete 1st story (3 of 6 pgs from auctions), 5 pgs copied from original printings, and ifc,ibc+17 other pgs from assorted auctions! (quality varies!)
That 1st story was reprinted in a UK comic - Mystic 19, but no scans of it yet.
-
Thanks Len.
Darwin upgraded the HA cover you shared so I've added it to the file.
-Yoc
-
Hi,
I didn't think of this as a recreation, since all but 5 pages are from original bbwt117 comics.
I think of a recreation as having either earlier, original printings of the stories, or later reprints.
BB106 will be like that, with all stories copied from the original appearances
-
Good points Len. I'll just call it -inc with fills.
Take care,
-Yoc
-
Thanks.
Next a re-upgrade to my old upgrade of Zoot 14A - now with the back-page ad & ibc added (tilted scans from eBay).
-
Another minor upgrade - Farrell's Lone Rider 13 - text story (copied from #2) and bc (eBay) added.
Some day those 5 old inc scans (9,13,16-18) will be completed!
-
Thanks for all your work Len!
:D
-
Some new upload coming soon (to a theatre near you?)!
Tonight, however, it's an upgrade to the 11-year-old bhcomics scan of Blue Bolt 104: added ifc,ibc,bc, both text pages, and the back-page ad. Still missing 3 ad pages.
Yoc (probably) uploaded my original contribution, so that'll have to be deleted.
Thanks!
-
Thanks Len!
I've deleted the old one for you.
Have a great Christmas holiday,
-Yoc
-
For B-western movie fans (and Fawcett western fans), tonight it's 2 issues of
Bob Steele - #s 6 & 9! (still need #8)
-
Thanks Len, very nice!
:D
-
Thank you!
-
and one more Fawcett western - an upgrade to:
Fawcett Movie Comic 012 (Rustlers on Horseback)!
Head 'em up! Mooooooooove 'em out!
-
'Rawwwwwhiiiiiiiideee!' :) :D
Thanks Len!

Nice clip!
Tonight it's some Canadian content - from "JVJ-Movielover-Darwin" it's the Superior version of Fox's My Life #7 (if no one else has upped it).
Only the whole cover & last-page ad are original; the other 31 story pages are from the Fox comic
-
Over to Pines tonight for Buster Bunny #8!
-
Thanks Len.
Robb mentioned a dupe page is in it, I hope you still have the book there.
-Yoc
-
Thanks Len.
Robb mentioned a dupe page is in it, I hope you still have the book there.
-Yoc
Yes, and more important, the duped page replaces a page that is missing. The uploaded pages are in such good condition that I am sure the missing page is in the book and may even have been scanned, but was inordinantly deleted or just left out of the page assembly. Yes, let's hope Freddy still has access to the book.
-
No problem; fixed ver now uploaded! (and at cb+)
(That's what happens when I scan a staple-free issue. I do one wrap at a time - pages 1/2 then 31/32 etc, but once in a (long) while I don't get them in the right order, so instead of 5/6, 27/28 I did 28/6, 27/28.

Thanks for the quick fix! Now I just need #12 and 15 to complete the series, and a handful others (2 Coo Coos, 1 Barnyard, 1 Happy) to finish all Better/Nedor/Standard/Pines funny animal & comedy series.
-
Thanks for the fix Len!
:)
-
Len has shared another Buster books filling a hole in the collection.
Buster Bunny #15 [Standard 1953.07] -freddyfly.cbz
-Yoc
-
(Thx for adding the BBunny 15 note).
Tonight - an 11-year-old upload at CB+ that never made it to dcm - Nation-wide's Mortie #2! (converted to .cbz)
-
Thanks for catching that Len. These things can happen.
:)
-
Tonight, one new page! (and one copied ad), for...
Wonderworld #21! Now with page 1 (The Flame) from eBay & 64 (Blue Beetle radio ad) from Fantastic 14 (identical but different colours) added.
Also: converted from cbr to .cbz, and screenshots added.
-
Thanks Len!
:)
-
Another minor upgrade/replacement tonight:
Black Cat Mystery #42 - now ctc with ifc,ibc,bc added (if's are tilted), and screen shots added.
-
Thanks very much Len.
:)
