I still have bills to pay, so the auctions continue. Here are two affordable Golden Age horror comics. They are not featured on this web site, but have pretty cool cover art nonetheless. Please help me out by bidding early and often. Ha ha. Here are the auction links:
Dark Mysteries #20
Terrifying Tales #11
These have been sold. I think they went cheap. I lost money on both of them. D’oh!

Sadly we have lost another great Golden Age comic artist. This time it is the co-creator of Captain America, Joe Simon. Joe was a partner of the late, great, Jack Kirby and helped pioneer several popular superhero characters as well as entire comic genres such as romance (Young Romance) and horror (Black Magic). He also created and edited Sick Magazine. I never got to meet him but I do own a Captain America comic that he signed.

Golden Age Batman artist Jerry Robinson passed away recently. In addition to being one of the first Batman artists, he is well-remembered for creating Batman’s arch-villain The Joker. I had the pleasure of meeting Jerry a couple times at comic book conventions, he will be missed.
