VERY RARE! 1st DC comicNew Fun Comics #1 is the first publication released by what would soon become the biggest, and longest-lasting powerhouse in comics, DC Comics. The importance of this book has little to do with its contents, and much to do with its place in history, for it is in these oversized pages that the worldwide pop culture phenomenon known as the comic book got its start. Featuring a variety of original single-page and short stories by a bunch of artists that will not ring any bells with the comic-collecting crowd, even those well-versed in the Golden Age, these humble origins are akin to silent movie shorts or the Gutenberg Bible, or Pong for the video game fans out there. It is the beginning of something big, and, as such, commands attention and respect.
