Planet Comics #10; a cracked-out (by the previous owner) cgc .5 blue, missing the three center wraps. Label was passed on to me and will be included. Only 32 on census, including this one. I love this book but am narrowing my marriage projects to a few Cap-focused Timelys only.

$600 shipped within U.S.

Please note tape and extra staples on spine. It’s a Mylar all-star and fully supple for reading, but it’s Qualified upside even if successfully married is likely capped by those. In hand, I like it for GVG to VG appearance, as presentation goes, IMO.

Planet 10 is one of my favorite covers of all time. This one still presents quite nicely. Best of luck with the sale!

Thank you; that’s saying something coming from a guy who has assembled this run! If it were complete (even via marriage) it would not even be up here. As it is, I’m torn. But I don’t want too many incompletes as it’s too many marriages to try to obtain, and the Timely Caps are enough to chase. This is probably a less common book than any of the ones I’m trying to finish, except maaaaaybe All Select 7.

 SOLD! Here’s 18 pages from Crash Comics #5 (Tem Publishing, Nov. 1940 — 2nd Catman story and 1st cover appearance.) The pages are getting delicate and are chippy around the edges but can be read carefully. The entire Catman story is here.  $50

 Thanks Matt! I priced it cheap because I feel I am also asking a boardie to take over stewardship of a small, fragile piece of comics history. Thanks for accepting the mantle!

Next up, we have a very incomplete Captain America Comics #39. Missing the cover and first two wraps, and the center three pages (there was a single leaf in the middle; common in WWII-era books.)

$200

[Readcomix]

Lastly, we have portions of Superman #14 from Jan. 1942. The iconic cover, and most of the 68-page book, is missing, but you get portions of three Superman stories, Clancy the Cop, and a nifty house ad for Action and World’s Finest.

$200
