Action Comics #242 (Jul 1958, DC) First Brainiac and Kandor. Shipped with USPS First Class Package.Super-key Silver Age milestone! This is the issue that followed Action 241 which featured "The Key to Fort Superman", considered by many to be the start of the Superman Silver Age. One month later, Superman first encounters Brainiac and obtains the bottled city of Kandor for his Fortress. Curt Swan's cover rendition of Brainiac is stunning.
My non-professional grade for this book is "Good" (2.0).Cover: detached from staples but in one piece. Lower edges, front and back, are scuffed and have small tears. There are corner creases. There are white color hits around Superman (see photos).Interior: holding up well for a 61 year old reader, all pages attached. Some outer page corners are creased.Overall: the book is readable and due to the deep purple color scheme, it still retains (in my opinion) good visual appeal.Photos are representative. An affordable way to score this key book!Feel free to send me questions.Pay via Paypal, please.Ships within one day of completed sale. Free shipping with First Class USPS with tracking.I have been an ebayer for about 20 years, but mostly a buyer. This is the first of a number of my Silver Age comics I plan to sell. I am eager to make this a good experience for you!
