Cool Stuff: Original Comic Art!
As promised, more Daredevil pages!
Page 12 from issue 31, by Gene Colan!
Page 16 from the same issue!
Jumping ahead a bunch of issues, here's page 5 from Daredevil 58!
And bouncing back again, page 3 from Daredevil 25!
Still more Colan, here's page 1 from Daredevil 66!
I believe this is a re-creation of this particular DD cover by Colan, but I could be misremembering!
Next, it's page 61 from Daredevil Annual #1, by Colan!
and here's page 64!
And 65!
Next, we're going backwards in the issue to page 18!
OK, had enough Daredevil for a while? I hope so...
...because here's page 20 from DC Comics Presents #56, by Curt Swan!
And here's Ross Andru's cover for DC Special Digest #9!
Next, it's page 47 from Deadly Hands of Kung Fu #3, by Paul Gulacy!
Getting real different now... it's page 11 from Debbi's Dates #7, by Henry Scarpelli!
Here's page 12 from issue 7!
Page 13!
Page 14!
Page 15!
Page 16!
And page 17!
And that'll wrap up this extra-big installment!

Cool Stuff!
Time to look at some more Marvel character goodies -- most of which I probably can't even afford to think about bidding on these days!
This is a pretty cool playset! Check it out:
That's the play area, plus the cardboard standees, and it all collapses into a convenient carrying case!
Next up, the Spider-Man/Hulk Colorforms set! Yes, you can well imagine there were a lot of items featuring Spidey and the Hulk together, thanks to both of them being pretty popular in the 1970s!
Yes, even marbles... red and green marbles... were produced with a Spidey and Hulk license!
I miss the Mead Marvel Superheroes school supplies... I wish they'd return!
That looks like a Kirby Sub-Mariner picture on this button, probably from one of the earlier FF issues that Subby guested in.
Here's a three-dimensional Spider-Man puzzle produced under the Secret Wars license... but also note the stars on the lower corners, reminiscent of the Super Powers packaging!
This Thing poster is just odd... "Yaaaaaaaaaaaa"????? Not "It's Clobberin' Time" or something else more appropriate to the Thing???
Here's the Thor 1960s button... man, something's weird with Thor's right hand... it's huge, plus Mjolnir is too small!
Here's the classic Kirby Marvelmania Thor poster!
Thor hand puppet!
And we wrap up our Marvel cool stuff coverage with these Marvel videos, which I absolutely bid on, and was absolutely outbid on! These came out in the mid 1980s or so, and had two half-hour cartoons on each one -- the second one was always a 1960s Spider-Man episode, while the first was either a bunch of 1960s Marvel Super-Heroes cartoons strung together (I forget if they were edited to run smoothly, or if you heard the opening and closings over and over again), the 1970s Fantastic Four cartoon, or the 1980s Hulk cartoon, if I recall correctly. The Hanna-Barbera FF 'toon and the 1960s Hulks weren't even considered for these, if I recall correctly. Getting some of these was my first exposure to the 1960s Marvel Super-Hero cartoons!
