Description

Miss Fury #1 (Timely, 1942) CGC VF/NM 9.0 Off-white to white pages. Here's the nicest copy yet certified of this issue, the first comic book appearance of Tarpe Mills' newspaper heroine Miss Fury. The character is quite significant in comic book history, as she was one of the earliest superheroines -- according to some, she's the first superheroine to be created by a female cartoonist. This issue includes Miss Fury's origin, and she even appears in costume in the book, which wasn't the case for every issue. While Overstreet credits the cover to Alex Schomburg, our considered opinion is that it's the work of another Timely hand, probably Ms. Mills herself. Overstreet 2008 VF/NM 9.0 value = $4,461; NM- 9.2 value = $6,400. CGC census 1/09: 1 in 9.0, none higher.
