Description

Adventure Comics #61 (DC, 1941) CGC FN- 5.5 Cream to off-white pages. Nice-looking unrestored copies of this one are tough to come by! This is the first appearance of Starman, with art by Jack Burnley. DC gave this new hero the full "benefits package" -- not only did he unceremoniously bump Sandman and the Hour-Man off of the Adventure cover where they had been alternating top billing, he was also given a Justice Society membership right off the bat (a hint as to whom he replaced: a Mr. Tick-Tock Tyler dropped Starman off his Christmas card list soon thereafter). Don't let the high issue number fool you -- it's a pretty early book, preceding the likes of Green Lantern #1 and All-Star #8. Overstreet 2008 FN 6.0 value = $3,480. CGC census 1/09: 3 in 5.5, 3 higher.

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions the Live Auctioneer bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now AS insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject a Live Auctioneer Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the Live Auctioneers live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you AS the winning bidder. By bidding via Live Auctioneers, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since Live Auctioneer bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. IN most cases the floor responds before the Live Auctioneer bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie Live Auctioneer bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through Live Auctioneers carry a 19.50% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned IN conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Auctions, and all other information should be considered preliminary.
