I could do the Howard the Duck MAX cover, the DC LImited Collector's Edition #41, and Black Lightning #1 for ya. I don't have a scanner big enough for the Superfriends poster, sadly. I could send you a photo of it or close up scans of the Superman head if you get desperate.

I'm assuming these are for future Urban Legends pieces?

Thanks, John!

Hmmm...if push comes to shove, yeah, I'd say a detail of the poster would be fine.

I should be able to do the Star Wars #1 and Universe X Spidey scans for you...
When do you need them by?

Thanks, Tim!

Preferably within the next week!

Do my utmost!
Do you remember whereabouts the Harras insult was? I seem to recall you saying it was on the spine of a book...

I'm afraid I do not.

I do know that a character is saying "Your powers have no effect on me" in the panel, if that helps!

Thanks again!

It's funny, while checking to see if I could find the page number, I noticed that this blog entry is already high on Google results for searches involving Universe X Spidey!

I'm pretty sure I have the Squadron Supreme book you're talking about. I should be able to dig it out of storage this weekend and make a scan for you, if no one gets to it before then.

Rock on, Kelson!

Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you the other day, your blog link is in the blog roll.

Alas, I can't help... but surely that Star Wars cover can't be TOO hard to find, right? It's pretty famous for the "green Darth Vader" thing.

I can take care of the Letitia Lerner panels.

I just emailed you the Super Hero Happy Hour #1 cover -- straight from the original source.

Alas, I can’t help… but surely that Star Wars cover can’t be TOO hard to find, right? It’s pretty famous for the “green Darth Vader” thing

Yeah, you'd think that, right?

I know I did.

And yet...

I can take care of the Letitia Lerner panels.

Thanks, Loren!!

VERY cool, Dan!

Thanks a lot!

Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you the other day, your blog link is in the blog roll.

Cool, thanks!

Um... obviously that first line was supposed to be a quote. Must've mistyped the code.

I've got Star Wars, Spotlight, and the FF panels.

Awesome, Rob!

Thanks!

the bob harras insult is on the spine of the comic.

correction the spine of the book. sorry

by the way what covers do you still need?

I might be able to do MSH #12.

MSH 12 sent.

I could help out with the Fantastic Four panels if they're still needed.

Have a good day.

Brian, you already have the Spidey Universe X?

I'm looking for a higher resolution copy of it, Rhod.

I crossed out the stuff that people have sent already!

Right, John, but like I said, I was looking for images 800x1000 pixels or bigger, or relatively, at least double the size of those images.

I notice the items that John said he could do in the first comment are not yet crossed off; I could provide HtDM 1. Will give it a day or so though (can't do it right now anyway).

Haven't you already shown scans of some of these images in Urban Legends? Like the Harras insult and the Howard MAX cover, I'm positive you've shown those already in Urban Legends before.

Brian, did you receive the scan I sent of the Squadron Supreme book?

Yep!

Thanks - I'll cross it off now!

Great! Glad I could help!

[...] a day or so, I had received either the scans I needed or pledges to get me the scans I needed (here is a list of the scans I have not gotten [...]

Howard the Duck MAX at Mile High Comics:

Oh sorry, you said 800x1000 or bigger, hmm, sorry about that.

Brian, I'll get you the scans for Super Friends and Howard before the end of the day. Sorry about the delay.

Just E-Mailed you the howard the duck cover if you need him bigger let me know. I also have the Universe X spidey issue so i can scan it if you still need it.

Thanks, Koster, that would be awesome if you had the Spidey!

And thanks, John, no problema!

Brian,

Sorry fo rthe huge delay in getting back to you on this, but UNiverse X was in my Ebay pile in the spare room... Stacked in box 12... Right at the bottom...

Here's the rub.. Even though there is no mention of "First printing", "Second printing" or otherwise, my copy has the blank bookcase on that panel...

I went through the book five times before I finally realised that the reason I wasn't spotting it must be that I own the WRONG VERSION!!! Dang it.. However, If you want a 300dpi scan of the page (it's a 3-panel page, so each panel is actually quite large, and it's obvious that the insult would actually be quite noticeable!!)

There are examples of other book spines a couple of pages previous, with titles like "Along Came a Spider" and "Arachnia"...

Do you still need a scan of Marvel Star Wars #1 with the Red-headed Leia and the green Darth Vader?

Apologies and queries,

Tim

That's too bad, Tim.

Ah well - maybe no one has the foul-up?

Thanks for looking!

Brian,

I took the liberty of downloading Credo's scan from the "Urban Legends" piece, and Photoshopped the resolution a bit, cleaning up the grain and print patterns a bit...

There's definitely a word or two before "Harras... " Could even be "R.I.P. Bob Harras..."

Where do I email stuff to?? (Email me with your email address if necessary)...

Though wouldn't Credo happen to have a better scan of his original?
