Force Comics 1948 Back Cover Ad for New York Star: Rare Marvel Timely Edition

Well, folks, let me tell ya a thing or two about these Force Comics from 1948. Now, I ain’t no expert, but I know a thing or two ’bout good ol’ comics and the stories they tell. These Force Comics, they ain’t like the ones you get today, all shiny and new. No, these are from way back when, back in 1948, and trust me, they’re something special.

Now, first off, let’s talk ’bout the cover. The back cover, that is. Ain’t much goin’ on inside, just a blank space, but that back cover, oh, it’s somethin’. There’s an ad for the New York Star, one of them big newspapers. Back then, they was sellin’ a supplement to the European edition of the New York Star. Quite the fancy thing for folks who wanted the news all the way across the pond. Real interesting, huh?

As for the condition of these here comics, well, I ain’t gonna lie to ya, they’re a bit rough around the edges. We ain’t talkin’ perfect condition, no sir. These comics might have a taped spine and some extra staples put in to hold ’em together. Ain’t no shame in that though, sometimes ya gotta patch things up when they get old. The grade on these comics is what they call GD- to GD, which ain’t too bad for somethin’ that’s been around for so long. If you want to see for yourself, just take a look at the pictures, they’ll tell ya more ’bout the wear and tear than I can.

Now, the pages? Well, they ain’t missing, and there ain’t no big tears or creases. That’s a relief, ain’t it? You might think somethin’ from 1948 would be all bent and broken, but these comics held up pretty well over time. No major damage, and if there’s a dust jacket included, you can bet it’s in there too. A rare find, you know?

And let’s not forget the stories in these comics. You got yourself Annie Oakley in issue number 3, now ain’t that somethin’! Ain’t too many comics back then with a strong woman like her in ’em. I hear tell, she’s a real crack shot and a hero to boot. The Force Comics folks sure knew how to bring in a crowd with her.

Now, if you’re lookin’ for the Marvel part of this, well, Force Comics was part of the Marvel Timely series from back in the day. It ain’t the Marvel we know now, with all the big movies and such. Back then, Marvel was just startin’ to make its name in the world, but let me tell ya, these comics were somethin’ special in their own right.

There ain’t too many of these Force Comics floating around anymore, so if you find one, you best hold on to it. It’s a rare treasure, a real piece of history. Heck, if you ask me, it’s worth a pretty penny, but that’s just the opinion of an old woman who likes a good read.

So, if you happen to come across one of these here comics, don’t just let it sit there. Take a good look, appreciate it for what it is—something from the past, still tellin’ stories even after all these years. Who knows? It might just be worth more than you think. And if you’re ever lookin’ to sell it, well, there’s folks out there lookin’ to buy, sure as sugar.

All in all, these Force Comics from 1948, they ain’t just any ol’ comics. They got history, they got character, and they got a story to tell. Just like the folks back in the day, these comics are tough, they hang on, and they ain’t afraid to stand the test of time.
