DESCRIPTION
ow/white pgs; tied for highest 1 of 2!
Johnny Craig cover/art; 1st app. of Janice Cord, girlfriend of Tony Stark; Intro/death of Drexel Cord; Letter from Bob Gale.
Highest GradedCover artist Johnny Craig made a name for himself during the early days of EC, where he lent his meticulous hand to the publisher's stable of titles, covering every genre from romance to horror. Working in advertising after EC's demise, Craig returned to comics through Warren Publishing and eventually ended up at Marvel, where his inability to adhere to the house style made his tenure short lived. But, in that brief stint, he managed to produce a number of classic issues. As is evident on the cover Craig had a defined style and an elegant, flowing line. Penciling and inking not only this cover, but the entire interior story.This flawless copy is certainly a sight to behold, the glowing colors, immaculate registration, and razor-sharp corners combine to make this a glorious example of a near-perfect Silver Age treasure.
Overstreet Guide 2018 NM- (9.2) value = $300.
