Owner's Description

Issue #6 features the first appearance of Tomar-Re, who was the first non-Earth/Sector 2814 Green Lantern to be introduced. With dangers simultaneously threatening his world and the planet of Aku, the Green Lantern of Xudar contacts the Green Lantern of Earth for help.

For many years this was the single highest graded issue, but CGC recently upgraded a book making it 1/2. To my mind, this is the better copy since it has WP and the other has C/OW, but the emergence of a second 9.4 undoubtedly affected its value adversely, as I paid about three times as much for this book as the second one made at auction. Oh, the hazards of buying single highest graded books, they rarely stay that way, so Buyers beware!

Purchased on 6/21/2013 in a ComicConnect auction.

2021 Update: Well, my once single highest graded copy, for which I paid a princely sum, is now an also ran, as a 9.6 has appeared in the census. I would now probably be lucky to get 25 cents on the dollar for what I paid back in 2013. Anyone who buys comic books as an investment better stick to Marvel keys.
