Larryw7 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 9 minutes ago, szavisca said: That was my immediate reaction too...still as one of those comics that couldn't be published today without parental protests and threats of boycotts over the insensitivity etc... I had to get myself one. In a way one could argue a story like this is more taboo now in American culture...than graphic slasher horror zombie junk or even overtly sexual stuff. I completely understand. I just nabbed a reader copy on eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The third ever published DC comic, the first science-fiction cover in comics, and while this copy certainly has its share of problems it is unrestored and has off-white pages. I couldn't be happier! Fantastic pick up Steve!! I have always loved this multi-panel sci-fi cover. I hope one day I can get down to LA again and paw through your copy. Hopes of owning a copy are, as you alluded to, are scarce! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe this is the first time DC put the Superman-bustin-chains circle image on a cover. A much repeated theme (#14 and then #16 up). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
