The other contents were the aforemetioned Beowulf; Kong (Anthro without the charm),a late Kirby Kamandi and an early Claw, which was basically Conan but with added Moorcock.<br /> I still think Stalker was the most interesting feature but the Ditko art and the anti-heroic lead didn't find a market among DC's vanilla superheroes.Dougiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03965448821892833703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6263300365798803459.post-80483444303406983012014-02-25T22:57:45.256+00:002014-02-25T22:57:45.256+00:00I got a couple issues of Stalker a bit back, along...I got a couple issues of <b>Stalker</b> a bit back, along with <b>Beowulf</b> and <b>Starfire</b>: DC wanted a fantasy book like Conan, in the worst way, which mostly they got. Still, <b>Warlord</b> did pretty well for itself!googumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17843267619711712271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6263300365798803459.post-53886896669246303422014-02-24T10:28:40.877+00:002014-02-24T10:28:40.877+00:00Hi

It's like they were deliberately committing suicide. I never bought this despite loving both Ditko and Wood simply because fantasy/sword&sorcery comics aren't my bag. I'd rather have Ditko on Creeper or Shag or even Static or Crackling Blazer.Doc Savagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08783244633195233970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6263300365798803459.post-23900481512927953172014-02-17T02:28:15.122+00:002014-02-17T02:28:15.122+00:00I understand your sense of bamboozlement.

I as well, when I have occasion to visit my brother's place, where my magnificent collection of comics are stored, in his basement, (hey, man, I live in an apartment)have found things in there I had no idea I had. Including two issues of Stalker.<br />It is often a journey of discovery, finding something weird and obscure and wondering, "what the hell was I thinking when I bought this?"<br />But I liked Wally Wood. Maybe that's why.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
