Description
Pep Comics #38 (MLJ, 1943) CGC FN/VF 7.0 Cream to off-white pages. Alex Schomburg on Pep? You'd better believe it! This is one of only two covers the great Schomburg worked on for this title. While Archie doesn't appear on the cover, he's on hand inside the issue, drawn by his creator Bob Montana. The cover stars Hangman and the Shield (plus the latter's sidekick Dusty the Boy Detective), who are drawn inside the issue by Irv Novick and Bob Fujitani, respectively. There's also a Bentley of Scotland Yard feature with Gil Kane art and a Captain Commando story with an appearance by Hitler himself. This is the first time we've seen a copy of this issue, and ours is the only copy of #38 that CGC has certified as of this writing. Overstreet 2005 FN 6.0 value = $165; VF 8.0 value = $340. CGC census 3/05: 1 in 7.0, none higher. From the collection of Chris Bell.CGC Grader Notes:
