JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY 58 CGC 5.0 OWW Pages

ATLAS COMICS

MAY 1960. “I FOUND RRO! THE MONSTER FROM THE BOTTOMLESS PIT!!”

Stan Lee story. Steve Ditko cover art and story art. Jack Kirby, Don Heck and Joe Sinnott story art.

 

Super nice copy for the grade. TOP 10 CENSUS! CGC Census only 7 books in higher grade (2 8.5; 1 8.0; 1 7.5; 2 6.0 and 1 5.5...only one in 5.0...this one!). OSPG prices in mid-grade are pretty irrelevant for these books.

$199 shipped!

It amazes me that no matter how low you price stuff here, you still get whacko offers doh!
