Classic Human Torch/Sub-Mariner battle issue (07/40) Comic Book Impact rating of 8 (CBI)Unlike DC, which had a stable of cheerful and friendly superpals, Timely from the beginning seemed to enjoy pitting its top-tier creations against each other. Check out this early issue of Marvel Mystery with the Human Torch and the Sub-Mariner body slamming each other into comic history, a scene that would repeat regularly throughout the rest of their four-color careers. The obsessive detail and almost woodcut-like aggressive lines of Alex Schomburg make this battle of the titans both feverish and enticing.Overstreet Guide 2013 G/VG (3.0) value = $6,900.
