Reform School Girl! Giant Comics Editions! MORE!
Pixelmon Media’s Golden Age Good Girl Comic Book Facsimile Collection project on Kickstarter — which we told you about earlier this month — is ready to launch March 17. But the folks behind it all are still putting the finishing touches on it, with two new tier bonuses, and the opportunity to have your issues graded by CGC, if you’re into that sort of thing.
Dig the latest:
— The first new tier bonus is Avon’s rare and uproarious 1951 Reform School Girl! This comic is an exclusive when backers buy The Top 10 and The Next Ten tiers together.
— The second new tier bonus includes 1949’s Giant Comics Editions #12 from St. John that repackaged a bunch of previously released romance issues. This classic, boasting a Matt Baker cover, is an exclusive when backers buy the Top 10, Next Ten, and Final 15 tiers together.
— Collectors will be able to select an add-on that will allow them to get issues slabbed by CGC. (This has become a thing among Facsimile collectors.)
— Pixelmon has changed the title that was offered as a bonus to collectors who back the project within the first 48 hours of launch: 1950’s Blue Bolt #105, with its famed L.B. Cole cover, replaces Speed Comics #35.
To rev up your engines, here are 13 more covers from the nearly 500 comics that will be in the campaign:
Matt Baker
Lou Fine
Poss. Edd Ashe
Alex Schomburg

L.B. Cole

Joe Simon
Dan Zolnerowich

Maurice Whitman

Jack Kamen
Now, the kicker to the Kickstarter: While not Golden Age prices, the tiers are not inexpensive, with the lowest at $149, featuring 10 of the most famous Good Girl books of them all. Tiers go as high as $1,499, depending on the category and the number of issues included. Check out the full list here.
Books will not be Golden Age dimensions. They will be Modern Age like most Facsimiles — 6.625 inches x 10.25 inches — so they can be easily stored in the typical long box.
It’s also important to note that these Facsimiles will not be available anywhere else and will only be printed to order. There will be no overprint.
The campaign, again, begins March 17.
