Description

Fantastic Comics #1 (Fox, 1939) CGC NM- 9.2 Cream to off-white pages. This copy has a high "wow" factor -- it's one thing to see it in low to mid-grade, as most Golden Age collectors have, and something else to see this copy's brilliant colors! The back cover looks great, too. The very collectible Lou Fine is the cover artist. Fine's fellow Iger shop artists handled the interior, which saw the first appearance of Samson, a character who later had his own book. Also, we can't resist mentioning the first appearance of Stardust, because we recall an old Overstreet notation that the character "assassinated wrongdoers regularly." Overstreet 2008 NM- 9.2 value = $8,400. CGC census 4/08: 1 in 9.2, none higher. From the Kylberg Collection.
