Description
Sensation Comics #1 (DC, 1942) CGC FN/VF 7.0 Off-white to white pages. Wonder Woman's first comic appearance had been in All Star Comics #8, published just a month prior to the premiere issue of this title in which she would star for more than 100 issues. Just like her DC mates: Superman, Batman, Flash, and Green Lantern, Wonder Woman's popularity was such that she also got her own title six months after this issue hit the newsstands. The issue also contains the origin and first appearance of Wildcat, Mr. Terrific, and the Gay Ghost. Sensation Comics #1 currently sits in the #22 position on Overstreet's list of the Top 100 Golden Age Comics, placing it in very select company, among the most important Golden Age comics of all-time. This copy has bright, bold colors, is very clean, free from cover creasing, with a beautiful back cover. Recent copies have been realizing prices much higher than the Overstreet guide values. H. G. Peter provided the cover art. Peter, Sheldon Moldoff, and Irwin Hasen interior art. Overstreet 2022 FN 6.0 value = $38,700; VF 8.0 value = $86,000.
