Remember your first Comics Buyer's Guide?

Comics Buyer's Guide is celebrating their 35th anniversary by providing an online index to their history:

Here are the beginnings of the long-requested index and/or guide to Comics Buyer's Guide and its precursor, The Buyer's Guide to Comic Fandom. Here you'll find nuggets of history as well as notes on who did what — where else could you find Klaus Janson, Neal Adams, and Jack Kirby drawing consecutive covers of the same title?

This is a long-term project. We expect this to come together slowly, a few months at a time -- and the initial content will be far from a full index. Thanks to Russ Maheras, we have clean specimens of all the covers from the first decade, plus his research into the cover artist credits for each (created for his fanzine Maelstrom #8). Commentary from the "Weeks of Wonder" chronologies will also be added — as previously published in Comics Buyer's Guides #1162-1168, #1616, and the 1997 CBG Annual.

Currently you can check out a rundown of CBG cover artists through issue #400, with more on the way.
