<B>Green Lantern #1 Double Cover (DC, 1941) CGC VF/NM 9.0 Cream to off-white pages.</B></I> This issue is listed among the 20 most valuable comic books by Overstreet, and no copy of the issue has been graded higher by CGC as of this writing. Green Lantern had earned his own book after a successful run in <B>All-American Comics</B></I>, and this issue was really the start of something big - except for taking the 1950s off, as did just about every superhero, Green Lantern has been in near-continuous publication from the 1940s through the present day. This issue's story retells the origin of Alan Scott, the Golden Age bearer of the ring. The book features a cover by Howard Purcell and interior art by GL's creator Martin Nodell, with stories by Bill Finger. The issue is a Gerber "7." CGC notes, "1st cover 7.0, interior cover 9.0." Overstreet 2007 VF/NM 9.0 value = $38,000; NM- 9.2 value = $59,000. CGC census 1/08: 4 in 9.0, none higher.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Comics - Slabbed (certified) (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
