The not-popular-at-all Cover Gallery

Posted by Mark on September 15th, 2008 at 02:44 pm

It’s all about the popular comic super-heroes. Well… Not today! This topic is about stuff really nobody ever downloads. Why? Well, nobody got these comics, so why would people download the data and cover from our online db? No reason to download, but we still have it listed in our online db. For the few dudes who got it anyway.

I almost feel sorry for these issues. Cover scanned, Submitted, accepted… just being in our online db… and doing nothing!… Anyway, let’s check some nobody-cares stuff right now. Underground alert! Oh yeah, Front Covers only. There’s also underground stuff in our online db without a cover. Now, that’s REALLY sad.

Sweet, 5 of these issues where submitted by me. I love underground/Indy books, The good and the horribly bad. Seriously, one of the major reasons I love your online DB is that your willing to accept the truly independent, self published kind of stuff. Even if only the original submitter is the only one who has it, it’s like your documenting Everything that could be considered a comic, not just the stuff that would get listed in price guides.

Oh, and if you can get ahold of the issue of Tracker here I thought it was very good. The series only made it 2 issues out of a proposed 5, But the issues are self contained and in my opinion good comic noir type books.

Hehe cool. We know there is a fan base for underground stuff too. Of course Marvel and DC are really important for us. And Dark Horse, Image, IDW, DDP, Dynamite, Avatar, etc. But we have A LOT more in our online db. And people do download underground stuff. Not a lot, but not 0 either.
