Master Comics #1 (Fawcett, 1940) VG+
<B>Master Comics #1 (Fawcett, 1940) Condition: VG+.</B></I> This oversized comic made history by almost causing a lawsuit! DC thought that Master Man, the title character, was a little too similar to their hero Superman, and once they threatened to sue, Fawcett withdrew the character after six issues. The series had a 133-issue run, though it soon adopted a standard-size format. This first issue is a 52-pager measuring 10.5" by 14". Staples are rusted. There's a fair amount of foxing on the interior pages, which have tan edges but are not brittle. Overstreet 2007 VG 4.0 value = $1,552.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Books & Catalogs (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
