DESCRIPTION
off white pgs
Sheldon Moldoff cover; origin & 1st app. of Atom
Although Green Lantern dominates the cover of this book in a pulpy Sheldon Moldoff illustration, the main distinction of this issue is that it marks the first appearance of a then-powerless Atom, a symbol of hope to the under-tall. Conceived by Bill O'Connor and Ben Flinton, the Al Pratt version of the Atom, along with Green Lantern, went on to become founding members of the Justice Society, the world's first superhero team. This comic is a top-choice Golden Age collectible featuring early depictions of two characters that have enjoyed real staying power.
The sharp, graphically powerful design of this cover is amplified by the bold colors which still stand out today, the central figures are crisp, clean, and pack a punch that will have GL fans glued to their screens come auction time.

Overstreet Guide 2017 FN+ (6.5) value = $9,900.
