Daring Mystery Comics #6 (Timely, 1940) CGC FN
<B>Daring Mystery Comics #6 (Timely, 1940) CGC FN 6.0 Light tan to off-white pages.</B></I> Timely's second oldest title only ran for eight issues (changed name to Daring Comics and continued for four more), but gave us some superheroes who never quite became household names -- Flying Flame, Dynaman, Stuporman (!), and The Fiery Mask in this issue alone. Also appearing in issue #6 for the first time anywhere was Marvel Boy, who stars in the Simon & Kirby cover as well as the feature story. The S&K artistic team also provided interior art. This is one of the harder Timely superhero titles to find, and high grade copies are especially elusive. We've offered a nicer copy just once before, and CGC lists only two nicer copies that have been certified to date. Overstreet 2007 FN 6.0 value = $1,269. CGC census 12/07: 1 in 6.0, 2 higher. <I>From the Fantastic Frank Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Comics - Slabbed (certified) (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
