Prepping an Edmond Hamilton special for ALTER EGO #187, and have most of the DC and SF work of his I need... but discovered that he scripted the story "The Connoisseur of Crime" in the 1940s GREEN LANTERN #18. Could use the splash and a couple or so of good pages from that story, if anyone has access to a decent scan. Naturally, art scans used will garner the sender a copy of the issue.
Thanks for listening,
Roy

Hi Folks--
Gulp! Layout guru Chris Day has just informed me, as he winds up the first draft of ALTER EGO #187, that a number of the scans I forwarded to him (which came from readers eager to help) are far too lo-res to be able to be reproduced at the size we'd like. Thus, I'm hoping that a few of you out there may have easy access to scans of the following that you KNOW are hi-res and will be willing to forward them to me. Naturally, as always, any scan used will earn the sender a comp copy of that issue.
STRANGE ADVENTURES #1 ("Menace of the Green Nebula," p. 4)
STRANGE ADVENTURES #13 ("Artist of Other Worlds," p. 1)
BATMAN #11 ("Bandits in Toyland," p. 1)
BATMAN #78 ("Manhunter from Mars," p.1)
DETECTIVE COMICS #233 ("Batwoman," p. 1)
DETECTIVE #211 ("The Jungle Cat Queen," p. 1)
SUPERMAN #71 ("The Man Who Stole the Oceans," p. 1)
SHOWCASE #17 ("The Planet and the Pendulum," p. 1)
ADVENTURE COMICS #312 ("The Bravest Legionnaire," p. 1)
ADVENTURE COMICS #342 ("The Legionnaire Who Killed, " Part 1, p. 1)
ADVENTURE COMICS #343 (main story, Part 1, p. 1)
MYSTERY IN SPACE #2 ("The Comet Peril," p. 1)
MYSTERY IN SPACE #2 ("Secret of the Ages," p. 1)
WORLD'S FINEST COMICS #159 (Superman/Batman story, p. 1)
WORLDS UNKNOWN #1, ("He That Hath Wings," pp. 11 & 12)
If you sent an image earlier, please do not send the same one again, as that is probably the image we're trying to replace.
Thanks for listening,
Roy

Anybody collect Hopalong Cassidy?
Hi Folks--
John Broome was kinda proud of some of the HOPALONG CASSIDY stories he wrote for DC (he only did one known one for Hoppy's Fawcett incarnation),and I was wondering if anyone had any scans of any stories he did, which could be included with his interview in ALTER EGO #188.
Thanks for listening,
Roy

The latest:
Looking for a little help with a couple of upcoming issues of ALTER EGO. AE #189, which I'm finishing putting together by the end of this month, is dedicated to John Romita, while #192 (six months later) features Mark Carlson-Ghost's article on the pre-Silver Age super-hero revival of the 1950s. I seem to have a source (Thanks, Doc V.!) for most of the Romita-related material for these two issues, but need copies of the following which Michael J. can't supply... and I can't make satisfactory photocopies from my bound volumes.
The pages I need for AE #189 (and, if one or two get left over, they'll definitely be in #192) are the following:
YOUNG MEN #28 - Captain America, p. 1
CAPTAIN AMERICA #76 - the 3 Cap splashes
As usual, I want to emphasize that I do not want copies made from any reprint book, such as the MARVEL MASTERWORKS volumes. I have those and could make copies from them myself. The need is for copies from the original 1954 comics.
Thanks for listening,
Roy
PS. Should've mentioned--could use any number of pre-1966 Romita scans from Marvel in particular. He did horror, WESTERN KID... any romance?
