Owner's Description
What can be said about Detective Comics 440 that would do it justice? Perhaps not a word, but I'll attempt to do so.
To commence, the cover of this issue is simply astounding and, I believe, only the great Jim Aparo could draw it. Further, the colors selected for the cover could not be more perfect. Lastly, its a 100 pager!
This is another incredible issue of this incredible run.
Keeper, until I locate a typical CGC graded 9.8 copy.
Image #2 is of the same comic book, a place holder that will be replaced with a scan or photograph of the back cover of this book.
