SUPERMAN #1 CGC FN - 5.5 ! AWESOME COPY!

[metropoliscomics]

"Look, up in the sky, it's a bird, it's a plane, it's...Superman!" Those words have been used to identify the character for decades and the big red S is one of the most easily recognized symbols in the world. Everyone seems to know who Superman is and this is the issue where his creators elaborate on the origin they put forth for the character in Action Comics. A must have for the serious Golden Age collector. This copy has great eye appeal with cream to off-white pages. It has a slight amount of professional restoration that includes tear seals, spine splits sealed, cover reinforced. What makes this book special is the small amount of restoration, which adds up to little more than a few tear seals. Add to that the fact that there is no color touch or cleaning and you have a book that is essentially a more desirable collectible when compared to something like a heavily restored FVF, for example. If you are looking for a beautiful, professionally restored copy of this iconic comic character’s first issue, your search is over!

 

One of the top Golden Age keys, this issue features the origin of DC's most well-known and best loved heroes: Superman, the man of steel! The cover has excellent eye appeal and is one of the most recognizable images from the Golden Age. Created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, the character has enjoyed decades of popularity and has been featured in cartoons, serials, movies and television shows. World renown and more popular than ever, the character is set to make his silver screen comeback with X2's Bryan Singer at the helm. The 1st name in superheroes has always been Superman.

No, this book has been off the market for about 9 years. It was originally sold as an unrestored book to the person we purchased it from.
