Owner's Description
issue #78 features a guest appearance by Black Canary as they rumble with the Demons’ Motorcycle Club. Once again, 9.8s of this issue are not rare. I already owned one when I opted to replace it with the WP beauty from the John Fantucchio Collection. Fantucchio was a well-known artist in '60s fandom, drawing covers for RBCC and the Comic Buyers Guide (including the #1 cover), and even worked as an illustrator for the CIA from 1963 to 1988. During this time he amassed full runs of Marvel, DC, Gold Key, Charlton, ACG and Dell, among others, keeping them locked away and untouched, which resulted in uniformly high grades and near perfect cover inks. After his passing in 2016, the family auctioned the collection through Comiclink. Even though the books have no distinctive markings, many were CGC graded.
We acquired the book in the 11/15/2017 CL Auction.
