classic L.B. Cole cover/art; bullet in the head panelL.B. Cole is without question one of the most remarkable artists to work in comics in any era, employing a range of skills he developed at the University of Berlin. His bold, bright style would make him one of the earliest comic artists to be considered seriously by critics. It's quite possible that his covers for Mask Comics are the most popular and well-known of his entire career, and the quasi-psychedelic cover to issue #1 is one of the most sought-after books from the Golden Age.
The cover for Mask #2 is equally impressive, but this issue holds a particular draw for serious collectors. The book has more than earned a well-deserved place among the most important issues of the Golden Age--a copy that goes for staggering numbers even at lower grades.
Overstreet Guide 2019 VG+ (4.5) value = $972
