gadzukes Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 This was in a pile of GA pieces I bought. It has the Superman Krypto Ray gun on the inside so I thought it might be a DC from around 1940/41 Anyone recognize it? You get a bonus "no prize" if it turns out to be from a key issue.

gadzukes Posted May 13, 2021 Author Share Posted May 13, 2021 Thanks Marwood. Supe 7 seems to be correct.... and the "address codes" match up too. Weirdly the final image you show has the wrong "yellow" back cover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weirdly the final image you show has the wrong "yellow" back cover? It's from one of those 'read comics for free' sites, and it looked like the images were cobbled together somewhat. It does seem to be the right one though doesn't it. All you need now is the cover and innards and you're up, up and away! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skypinkblu Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Well, it is "missing" but that just means it's in the wrong box, lol...and I REALLY need to go through all my books which used to be in perfect alphabetical and numerical order, but somehow became less so in the past year. I did find the Lois Lane 1 undercopy I was missing...it was filed under "Superman" not Lois...can you imagine?;)? Larryw7 and gadzukes 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
