Nothing like a Neal Adams cover from a noted pedigree! This issue is also the first cover in the title to use the now iconic “DC bullet” logo, that debuted on all February 1977 titles, and remained in various sizes and colors until 2005.
ComicLink Comments:
This pristine CGC 9.8 NM/MT from the Rocky Mountain Pedigree Collection is the single highest graded example ever certified by CGC. Additionally, CGC has assigned its perfect page quality designation of White pages, making this the very best example attainable in grade.
The original owner collection that is now established as the Rocky Mountain Pedigree collection is comprised of over 5,000 books and it is by far the most impressive Silver, Bronze and Copper Age collection ever consigned to ComicLink since the business was founded in 1996. Across the board, whether they grade out 9.0, 9.4 or 9.8, these issues are newsstand fresh and glossy, with rich colors and either white or off-white to white page preservation. You cannot truly measure the look of them by the grades they were given. They were an incredible sight to behold prior to CGC slabbing and we are, quite frankly, as blown away now as we were when we first laid eyes on them.
