Description
Captain America Comics #2 (Timely, 1941) CGC Apparent VF+ 8.5 Moderate (P) Cream to off-white pages. In terms of sheer looks, this is the nicest copy of #2 that we've ever laid eyes upon. High-grade unrestored copies are scarce if they exist at all (the best blue-label book in CGC's census is an 8.5), so if you want to know what it felt like to see this book when it first appeared, this professionally restored copy presents a perfect opportunity. The issue has the first appearance of Captain America's round shield, which was the only one he used from that day forward. Adolf Hitler appeared on his second cover in a row, with Joe Simon handling the art this time. The book's interior artists include Simon, Jack Kirby, and Reed Crandall. Hitler's back inside the book, joined by Hermann Goering for a four-way showdown with Cap and Bucky!
