Flash Gordon Wrist Watch-1971

Thanks again to Ronn Sutton for bringing this item to my attention. It's a FLASH GORDON wrist watch done in 1971. The package artwork as well as the art on the watch face are by Morrow, both in a style more similar to Alex Raymond's original--or more precisely Al Williamson's sixties distillation of it--than the style Gray, himself, would use for FLASH GORDON when he later drew the comic strip. Just two years ago, this rare item sold at auction for over one thousand dollars.

The Spider Presents Quiver

Here are some non-sequential pages from a late-period Morrow comic published by Blazing Comics--THE SPIDER PRESENTS QUIVER. Not sure how rare it is but friend Paul who provided the scans says that it isn't listed in Overstreet at all and GCD lists only the title, THE SPIDER PRESENTS from that publisher with no cover ad no other info. With the same credits, this would certainly seem to be tied somehow to that other, mystery Morrow story we ran here:

Richard Bach's Illusions-Pt 3/Conclusion

Thanks to Paul for the ILLUSIONS scans!

Richard Bach's Illusions Part 2

To Be Concluded....

Richard Bach's Illusions Part 1

Thanks again to Paul for these scans of the ultra-rare ILLUSIONS newspaper strip done by Gray in the late seventies under the short-lived BEST SELLER SHOWCASE banner. Reading it now, it may come across like so much metaphysical and pseudo-philosophical mumbo-jumbo but at the time the book, by Richard Bach, author of JONATHAN LIVINGSTON SEAGULL, was a huge number one bestseller! Still, an odd choice for a comic strip adaptation and I can't really say it was done well. Morrow's art here fluctuates from quite good to barely there but the flimsy story probably lost quite a bit of readers for the strip. The rest will be coming up here soon!

Buck Rogers

One of the most obscure strip reprint collections, this volume of the BUCK ROGERS run by Jim Lawrence and Gray Morrow came out in either the late seventies or early eighties and was occasionally seen remaindered in bookstores at the time...but little seen since.
