To celebrate the 45th anniversary of “Action Comics,” DC revamped Superman’s two biggest villains, Lex Luthor and Brainiac. Luthor got a much upgraded armor in a story by Cary Bates, Curt Swan and Murphy Anderson, while Brainiac was completely transformed into a living computer by Marv Wolfman and Gil Kane.

This book has a CGC OLD FIRST GENERATION LABEL. It is widely believed by collectors, and even CGC insiders, that OLD LABEL comic books were graded far stricter than those comic books being graded today. Also, since CGC did not offer pressing and cleaning services in its infancy, there is a very good chance that comics found within OLD LABEL SLABS most likely did not undergo the procedure. This information is very exciting, especially for anyone in possession of a valuable comic book encased in an OLD LABEL SLAB where a single grade jump could mean the difference of thousands of dollars.
