<B>Detective Comics #1 (DC, 1937) CGC GD/VG 3.0 Cream to off-white pages.</B></I> The significance of this Platinum Age milestone is unquestioned -- it's the first issue of the title that gave comics publishing giant DC its name! It came out over a year before <B>Action Comics</B></I> #1 and over two years before Batman's first appearance in <B>Detective Comics </B></I>#27, the two most valuable comics of all -- and it's rarer than both. Overstreet and Gerber agree it's a "scarce" issue, and we can corroborate, having offered an unrestored copy in only two previous auctions! Historic was the issue, and historic were the contributors -- Vin Sullivan with the cover; Creig Flessel, Joe Shuster, Paul Gustavson, and Fred Guardineer with interior art; and Jerry Siegel with storywriting. Get your copy today! Overstreet 2007 GD 2.0 value = $9,150; VG 4.0 value = $18,300. CGC census 5/07: 2 in 3.0, 3 higher.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Comics - Slabbed (certified) (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
