Your scan is of a fantasy cover.

 

I believe the real Double Action 1 exists, but where the two copies are is anyone's guess.

[Metarog]

I have one but it is not for sale.

 

 

Here is the inside front cover.

 

[Ashcan/Comics]

fantasy cover ,is this not the lost cover from dc archives that were possible (stolen)

I heard it is from quite a reliable source according to the material i have read so i thought it was the real deal.If not with all the guys on this board someone must have at least seen the real deal , 2 known copies, so lets get some info.

what is the interior stories black and white all dr. occult stories.

[Metarog]

Yes, all the interior pages are black and white. This is, of courrse, one of the Ian Levine commissioned replica editions and not the actual DAC #1 if it exists.

Metarog has it right. The cover is phony. Ian Levine either had it made, or bought it like that. The artwork is at best crude, and not at all similar to the type of non-superhero covers that were being drawn in 1939.

 

I believe I saw a copy of Double Action Comics 1 at the 1988 San Diego Con. I am not sure however, as it could have been number 2. I am fairly certain tho that it was number 1.

At a dealer's booth? Or in the hands of some collector? I find it difficult to understand how it might be displayed at such a major con yet no one can attest to its actual existence. Surely someone must know who allegeldy owns one of these two possible copies?

You're really very funny. Sad, but funny.

[Ashcan/Comics]

could this not be as much as a possibility of being the actual double action comics #1 as ian's copy has as much chance as being the real deal.

[Thegoldenage]

It could not be.

[Ashcan/Comics]

sure it could , if not adventure comics #37 . 9 months before double action comics #2 was produced so which cover do you think would have been used for double action comics #1 .

[action1kid]

I remember Gary Carter being a great D.C golden age collector.Had most every issue. Anyone ever ask him about a Double Action #1? He was one of the pioneer collectors going way back.

[Mephisto]

If Geppi, Bob Overstreet, or Steve Borock can't hook anyone up with info on this book I would imagine that the chances of finding the real story are going to be slim.

[action1kid]

Yes , but not impossible.

[Ashcan/Comics]

someone has to have info on this book.

 

any would be appreciated
