rare! WWII Simon & Kirby WWII Nazi bondage cover; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 7 (CBI)


Young Allies #2 is the kind of Golden Age wartime comic that easily tops the Want Lists of genre collectors. Envisioned as a sidekick team-up book, Bucky and Toro appear here without their adult companions Captain America and The Human Torch. This inspired marketing sold plenty of comics and continued to be a common trope in comics for decades to come.

The issue's classic Syd Shores cover is straight out of an Alex Schomburg fever dream as the Young Allies burst through a wall in a strange tank-like contraption (with Toro flying in to pitch a fireball). They're just in time, too, because a den of Nazis is preparing to brand a couple of their bound compatriots. Pure Golden Age mayhem!


Only four copies of Young Allies #2 are graded higher on the CGC Census. The cover of this gorgeous 8.0 comic is still clearly exceptional, with sharp corners and a rigid spine sporting great staple placement. There's also a deep and vivid color strike to further ensure this Golden Age beauty will be a top draw for collectors.
