Comic Book Covers That I Want To Share With YOU To Get You In The Mood For Halloween 2012!
 
 alt=
  

TODAY'S FEATURE IS BLOG #3741 -   Hey there!  It's Halloween!

As I did last year at this time... I'm going to share with you silly / spooky / scary comic book covers from the past!

Here's the first one: Above Top Right Photo: The comic book that made me STOP READING comics... AND START COLLECTING comics!  Journey Into Mystery #72 cover dated September of 1961!  Outstanding comic book cover from Jack Kirby & Dick Ayers!  The inside cover story by Stan Lee wasn't so bad either!  This is when I realized that 'real people' were behind the scenes creating comic books!  There weren't any comic cons back then to see how comic books were produced!

Here's the rest of this year's selections:

 

Well... That's it for this year's selections!

Happy Halloween!

~ Michael
