Owner's Description
"The Unknown Supergirl"
Cover Date: March/April, 1968
Published: January 9, 1968
Curt Swan and George Klein cover
80 Page Giant (G 45).
Grade Date: 06/29/2017
Acquired: 11/10/2017 - 1 of 2 in 9.8 when purchased.
This 9.8 from 1968 is gorgeous in hand. This issue is the second of four 80 Page Giants in the Action Comics title during the 1960s, each devoted to Supergirl (see Action Comics #334, 347 and 373). The childlike innocence of this board game themed cover goes straight to my collector's heart. The vibrant colors of the blue and purple background blend well with the green and yellow Supergirl title header, a real to pleasure to my eye. This piece is structurally solid and clean, both the back cover and page edges are still white. The square bound 'Giant' format is notorious for defects, making this THE crown jewel of my collection.
