Description

Adventure Comics #290 (DC, 1961) CGC NM/MT 9.8 Off-white to white pages. This issue, the last of the ten-cent Adventures, contains a key Legion of Super-Heroes tale, in which Sun Boy joins the team. A wacky Bizarro story is also featured. Curt Swan drew the cover, with George Papp and John Forte handling the inside art chores. Of course, the real attraction here is the mind-boggling 9.8 grade, practically unheard of for DCs from this era. Overstreet 2008 NM- 9.2 value = $340. CGC census 4/08: 1 in 9.8, none higher. From the David N. Toth Collection.

CGC Grader Notes:
