Ah, those landscape editions! I'd forgotten about those.

You must never have fired the Wonder Weapon since the Earth is still here.

I'm not too manly to admit that tears still come to my eyes when I remember reading the issue where Gwen dies.

Yes, that was a real shocker! I think it was a first for a comic, too.

Hope you’re feeling better, Steve! Mind the dust going through those boxes in that shed!

Thanks, Curtis.

I’ve spent most of this trip laid up in bed! Horrible!

Aaaaand, now I have another book to hunt down for my Dr. Doom cover collection. 😅

Seriously, though, thanks again for sharing. Loving these!

I’d forgotten about those landscape editions too! Never bought the British Apes comics but loved Marvel’s black & white Apes magazines (Doc Savage, Legion of Monsters & Conan too).

Yeah, those B/W comics were pretty special, but difficult to come by. I have a few somewhere.

Loving the 'shed' posts. I didn't realise that about Kill Raven. That went completely over my head at the time!

I only figured it out because I’d already read the American comics.

Some cool posters in the landscapers. Many not so much. I dream of seeing the Marshall Rogers one again of Dr strange reflected in an eyeball ...
