"And yet, it was a one-shot collecting material planned for an earlier series that didn't get published. Three Rocketeers then moved into the Unearthly Spectaculars giant-sized anthology for a couple more appearances.

I've never been to Comic-con and likely never will, but if there was one I would go to, it would be this one, just to get this 2017 convention yearbook! Bruce Timm cover stolen from Mark Evanier's…Continue

"Hey, I remember seeing that 3 Rocketeers logo. Did they ever appear on a cover, or have a masthead of their own? In the 1966-67 time period?"

Dave Blanchard replied to Hoy Murphy's discussion #Kirby100 #GoodyRickels"I've gotta think that Goody Rickels has gotten more from his brief appearances in two issues of SPJO than any other character in comics. I can't think of another character who has done less and yet remains beloved and fondly remembered to…"
Jeff of Earth-J replied to Hoy Murphy's discussion #Kirby100 #GoodyRickels"My favorite of the Kirby specials so far has been Manhunter, with Sandman a close second. Today will see the release of two: Black Racer/Shilo Norman and Darkseid.
It would have been nice if the Bronze Age Manhunter could have been Paul Kirk, but…"
Luke Blanchard replied to Hoy Murphy's discussion #Kirby100 #GoodyRickels"Manhunter and the Golden Age Sandman both appeared in Adventure Comics, of course. S&K apparently intended to call Manhunter Rick Nelson; the Paul Kirk name was from the series it replaced, "Paul Kirk, Manhunter". This was a…"
Rob Staeger (Grodd Mod) replied to Hoy Murphy's discussion #Kirby100 #GoodyRickels"Of the four released so far, I like the Sandman and Manhunter ones the best. The New Gods issue was the weakest of the bunch, INO, although even that has a nice 6-page tale by Walt Simonson."

My favorite so far has been the Sandman Overdrive Special. It has two new Sandman stories and some short reprints in the back. The creative teams really did a nice job on this entertaining issue.What made it even more special, and of interest to this group, is the two-page spread showing the many…See More
