classic Schomburg Human Torch cvrThe second-ever Human Torch cover, and a classic Schomburg bondage cover -- this is a prime example of Schomburg's obsessive, detailed, toylike imagery, with minute detail and Bosch-like nightmares filtered through an adolescent worldview. Plus, it just looks cool as all get out. Early Timelys are the mainstays of comics collecting, and never go out of style, and this early issue is a tough find and a great catch.
