The Human Torch #8 (Timely, 1942) CGC VG- 3.5 Brittle pages. One of the all-time great Golden Age superhero comics, this is the second of several "battle" issues pitting the Human Torch against that master of the underwater world, the Sub-Mariner. The cover by Alex Schomburg is crammed with action, as our red-hot hero melts the support beams from a bridge in order to kayo Sub-Mariner, who fights back with an "anti-flame fluid" gun (whatever that might be), while an army convoy moves below. Inside, there's also art by that master of wackiness, Basil Wolverton. This copy really looks great inside the protective CGC holder; the brittle page quality being the main reason for its lower grade. Overstreet 2003 VG 4.0 value = $640.

CGC Grader Notes:
Interior Centerfold Detached
Spine Spine Split
