Description
Heroes, Inc. Presents Cannon #nn Group (Wally Wood, 1969). Initially intended to be sold in Army PX's, the first issue of this title, this first of only two issues produced of this title was never distributed, and featured appearances of Cannon, the Misfits, and Dragonella. Originally some 1,800 copies were stored in a warehouse, and about half of them were stolen, seemingly making this a scarce issue to acquire indeed. Some of the copies have surfaced over the years, but pale by comparison to the group we're offering, which consists of approximately 70,000 copies! Overall grade quality varies widely, but many of the copies packed in the center of each box comprising this lot grade at least NM 9.4. The cover is by Wally Wood, and the interior art is by Wood, Steve Ditko, and Ralph Reese. Before placing your bid, be aware of the bulk of this lot and the inherent shipping expenses the winning bidder will incur. Most of the comics come in the originally packaged distributor's bundles of 300 comics per bundle. Overstreet 2005 values for this issue are FN 6.0 value = $6; VF 8.0 value = $10; VF/NM 9.0 value = $12; NM- 9.2 value = $15.More information about Wally Wood.
