Gazeta 446 from Dec 20 1938 has the first page from Action 1 from the Chuck Dawson Story & the Zatara Story. And as a BONUS the cover to the Supplement has Zatara with panels from Action 1. Using GCD I believe that this is the 1st Cover appearance of Zatara EVER, US or Foreign (Action 12 & 14 are in 1939) Oh cool, that’s the one I have.

gadzukes Posted April 7, 2021 Author Share Posted April 7, 2021 So Action comics has 64 interior pages. I've been able to find 26 of the pages in Gazetinha. Plus 2 unique covers for Zatara and Pep Morgan. I still need to look thru the Tex Thomson & Scoop Scanlon & Marco Polo stories to see if I can match those up. These came out 6 months after Action 1 hit the stands here in the US. This basically is a "poor mans" Action Comics #1. I gotta find the Superman pages now.

I'm going to keep my eye out out for them though. I was able to score these for only $5 a supplement, so I think it was a pretty good investment.

Thanks Brazil Comic King! This has to be insanely rare! I wonder how many are known to exist? I absolutely love the Action 1 cover superimposed over the chain breaking chest expanding image of Superman.
