Cover Theme collecting is a lot of fun, and a great way for inexpensive drek to find a loving home (think of them as living things, like in Toy Story). However, inexpensive or not, it can get expensive if you choose a theme that you foolishly underestimate [SURROUNDED  ] I thought, briefly, of trying a "Great Scott!" collection, but obviously that could cost quite a lot even in low grades. I've decided not to. I naturally have a Bronze Age #4 20cent collection in the make. Can't really avoid that if collecting Bronze Marvel (and a few DC). I have a few "Are You In Bad Hands?" like these.     |

This one's weird, it's the woman in blue.  I didn't know I wanted one of those till now  That blue really makes her stand out. And it's a "roller coaster" cover! This is one of my all time favorite "3-toed foot" covers. |

Those two faces epitomise the bad acting of the 1950s. |

It isn't a theme I actively work on- It's just a reoccurring theme in my collection I haven't really felt too enthused with chasing theme covers unless the title and issue is already part of my priority lists (early FF/Thor/Cap, and certain Bronze titles). If I see a cheap one in a sale I've claimed from, I'll get it. |

A couple recent War/Dinosaur books: Star Spangled War Stories #'s 98 & 102.   These two date stamped Superman's (#279, 280) came from Azkaban. The white marks on the lower left of #279 aren't abrasions, but glare.   |
