It's almost impossible to imagine a world without Superman. The legendary Man of Steel is one of America's most unique creations , with Superman becoming a cultural ambassador during the dark times of the character's formative years. Early Superman comics offer a special kind of energy and optimism that crafted some of the most coveted and valuable vintage comics on the market. Besides the dynamic color scheme of the cover, this issue has timeless tales of Superman taking on crooked boxing promoters and spies dealing in poison gas!
The rich and saturated colors of this gorgeous copy of Superman #2 truly set it apart from most. This is one of the nicer copies we've seen. All early Superman issues are worth the hefty sums they command but ones like this example, in such good condition, will continue to appreciate exponentially.
Overstreet Guide 2018 VF (8.0) value = $21,750.
