Sheldon Moldoff cover; origin & 1st app. of AtomAlthough 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 classic Shelly Moldoff cover gleams due to a sunny yellow wash that highlights the deep blacks of the Lantern's cloak. This is quite the handsome book for its grade, the solid construction and clean central image make this a real treat for GA GL fans.
