Description
Adventure Comics #291 (DC, 1961) CGC NM+ 9.6 White pages. The only copy graded above 9.0 by CGC to date. We searched in vain to find a flaw that prevented this from being a 9.8; to our eyes this looks like a perfect comic book. Curt Swan must have had a blast drawing Cleopatra on her barge here, and looking on is not Mark Antony but rather Lana Lang's dad, and if you knew that his first name is Thomas, you're the kind of DC fanatic who has to bid on this. Bizarro fanatics will want to know that the "Idiot of Steel" (Bizarro No. 1) did appear in his usual backup feature. Overstreet 2008 NM- 9.2 value = $180. CGC census 4/08: 1 in 9.6, none higher. From the David N. Toth Collection.View the certification for CGC Certification ID 0910502010, including grader's notes if available and a link to the latest full census report for the issue.*
