Re: Peak VH1 prices

Suspect the peak was between June - December 1993. I agree with your prices, but seem to remember them from sligtly later, like '94 or even '95. Maybe I just fell for dealers still holding on to high prices. /Magnus PS, for a laugh I looked up Harbinger 1 in "The Offical Comic Book Price Guide...

Re: Valiant Universe Chronology - 20th Century - Vol. 1 & 2

Thanks for the bump on this :) As I was reading through my VCS UNITY book, I noticed there is a lot of overlap and bouncing back and forth.. I was wishing that I didn't have to reread those parts and could just read through in as a linear story. Any thoughts about scanning pages or panels into a fo...

Re: Crossovers

I forgot about Paul Norris. This is one of my favorite pages in all of GK Magnus. Helped having Mike Royer (former Manning assistant) add some Manning touches to the linework as well. M28 Norris-Royer.jpg Good page. First time I read that story was on the plane back from San Diego comic con in '95....

Re: Crossovers

Cool. I think the post-Manning Gold Key Magnus issues are underrated. Yeah they aren't as good as Manning but taken for what they are they're high quality and add some quirky and fun things to the world. It's too bad Bolle and Spiegle never got to do any Valiant work while they were still around. T...

Reprint of a backup-story from Magnus 26.

Technically OT as they don't share a story, below is (as far as I know) the "closest" Magnus and Lost in Space has been in US publishing.

Re: Some foreign Gold Key comics

I have managed to add a few of the finnish releases of Turok in Hopeanuoli to my collection. Nice. Thanks for the pics. The first issue that introduces Turok actually has this long text that tells that the dinosaurs are actually demons but the penciller has decided to change them to look like dinos...

Re: Question about collecting Solar, and guest appearances.

Magnus the Robot Fighter 6 How is this one? Magnus 6,7 and especially 8 are essential to Solar's story. PSI Lords 3 Is this with Destroyer? Does he play an important role in Psi-Lords? The Valiant fandom shows that he appears in #2, 3, and 8. Yes, Destroyer, both versions, with and without beard. I...

That's similar to VH2 Armorines, that worked well.

I can easily see Magnus in a number of SciFi settings.

That's from the Sotomayor proposal.

I can be sure about this piece of art as I picked it up from the artist and it's hanging on my wall now.

Sure looks like it. Generally feels like art that could belong with early VH1, but Heritage assumes it's from after Unity 2000. I don't know what to think.
