DR.X Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 Sittin' home sick, but at least I have this sweet new book to make me feel better!! One of my favorite covers of the early issues. Great looking copy. However, one thing has always puzzled me about this issue in particular. The monster on the cover bears no resemblance to the one in the story. Could there have been a few different ideas they were running through for this cover and somehow put the wrong one on the book. I'm confused. Someone set me straight.

DR.X Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 (edited) I have this one Florida bound right now along with several others. It's a pre-hero addiction, and I can't stop. Purchased at the Chicago Comic Con back in 87 for $25.00. Edited January 6, 2013 by DR.X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korvac Saga Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Thanks for the well wishes and the compliments! With regards to the grade, there's a slightly blunted LLC on the FC and some tanning on the BC. Without the tanning, its 9.2 all day long with a shot at 9.4. Also one of my favorite covers: Kirby inked by Ditko, mad scientist assembling his ominous creation on a stormy summit somewhere remote, cool brown cover and Ditko torches in the background!!
