Description
Marvel Comics #1 (Timely, 1939) CGC Apparent FN/VF 7.0 Extensive (P) Off-white to white pages. The first Timely continues to be one of the most sought-after and elusive comic books of all. It's almost impossible to overrate the significance of the issue that introduced the Human Torch by Carl Burgos, the Sub-Mariner by Bill Everett, Angel by Paul Gustavson, Ka-Zar, and other characters to the Golden Age of Comics. The cover is by pulp artist Frank R. Paul. You will be hard-pressed to find a nicer copy, unrestored or restored, of the historic book. CGC notes, "Restoration includes: color touch, pieces added, tear seals, cleaned, reinforced." Overstreet 2003 GD 2.0 value = $18,750; VG 4.0 value = $37,500; FN 6.0 value = $56,250.More information about Marvel Comics, and Marvel Comics #1 Comic Title.
