Interesting how they obscured the bi-centennial blurb. :whofart: I have - buried somewhere - a few of these from the '70s when I went to Bob's Big Boy on a regular basis.

Re: Comic Book Cover Of The Day
 

I used to get them at Shoney's down in the South when my granddaddy would take me to breakfast as a kid. I have no idea what made me think of them to find a cover and post one. I enjoyed that they included various puzzles and connect-the-dots type stuff as well as the short little stories. The food sucked so the comic was the one highlight with the exception of the chocolate shortcake he would buy for me, even though it was breakfast time and I had just had chocolate chip pancakes smothered in syrup. And my sweet tooth still runs unabated, even to this day. :lol:

Many hope Marvel/whoever owns the rights (Lucasfilm?) collects that Indy/Raiders comic in an omnibus. I think the series ran some 30 issues.

Re: Comic Book Cover Of The Day
 

I have all three of the Dark Horse omnibuses that contained Raiders, Doom and Crusade plus all the other issues of the IJ run. They are small in size compared to normal Marvel omnibuses but big in content. :D

These are my copies. I bought them used way back. Not in the greatest shape but very readable.

Re: Comic Book Cover Of The Day
 

I both hate and love that X-Men cover. It's just so nonsensical. Jean in the back dancing, Angel with a bazooka, Beast swinging off of nothing, Iceman throwing snowballs.

Re: Comic Book Cover Of The Day
 

Both of these covers are awesome. I love the 4th wall breaking cover.

And the second one is awesome for two reasons: The Bat Signal creating the "modern" Batman logo on his chest and the old 40's/50's Batmobile which design has never been topped in my opinion. I have always loved the freaky front of it and the bat wings on the back.

Re: Comic Book Cover Of The Day
 

I always thought it looked like a bazooka or some kind of ray gun, but the end is closed. It's probably some kind of pole or pipe.

And I think Jean is supposed to be using her telekinetic powers but there are no wavy lines (which is how her powers were visually depicted in the early comics) to indicate it. Maybe Kirby hadn't settled on how they were going show it when he drew the cover and never bothered to update it.

You're right it is closed! Maybe it is a pole? That's even worse...

What better way to attack Magneto than with a big metal pole!

Loving the month by month 1960s Marvel comic covers.
