An Original Vintage Comic Book (measures 7 1/4" x 10 1/4" [18 x 26 cm]) (Learn More) Blue Bolt was a pre-code comic book superhero created by writer-artist Joe Simon for Novelty Press in 1940, during the period fans and historians refer to as the Golden Age of Comic Books. Artist: L.B. Cole Important Added Info: What a great comic this is! Not only does it have a great pre-code sci-fi cover by L.B. Cole, but it also has Simon & Kirby, and a wild story by Basil Wolverton, and even a text story by Mickey Spillane, who was also a major best-selling author of pulp fiction with his character Mike Hammer! Contents: Cover by L. B. Cole. Stories and art by Jack Kirby, Joe Simon, Mickey Spillane, Larry Antonette and Basil Wolverton. L. B. Cole's Star Publications takes over the Blue Bolt series, and as the superhero craze wanes, Blue Bolt becomes a backup feature to Dick Cole in his own title. A reprint of the second Blue Bolt adventure, featuring the very first teaming of Captain America creators Joe Simon and Jack Kirby: Blue Bolt faces the Green Sorceress and her latest secret weapon, the Cyclotron. A Spacehawk adventure by Basil Wolverton, as Spacehawk faces Droon and The Queen of Neptune. The presence of a text story by future hardboiled detective author Mickey Spillane makes this a rare issue indeed, featuring early work by Spillane, Wolverton, AND Simon and Kirby. Blue Bolt; Sub-Zero Man; Terror in the Grass; Spacehawk. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10. Please note that we don't use a "comic guide" grading system, and OUR grading scale is completely different from standard comic book grading. Our "very good" is completely different from a comic book graded "very good". Note that in the case of this comic, we pictured all of the pages, because it is of greater interest to collectors, and we want them to be able to see every single page of the comic, which should allow all bidders to get a sense of the exact condition of this comic book. Note: We have 19 images of this comic book, but due to a space limitation, only TEN of the 19 images are displayed above. However, there is a "supersize" link to the right of those images that lets you see the other 9. This is one of an excellent collection of 138 vintage comic books we were consigned, which we are auctioning in 138 separate auctions. NONE of these comics have any restoration (unless noted in our condition description) and all of them came from a small group of collectors who purchased them mostly when they were first published, and none have been "slabbed" or "graded"! And EVERY one of these 138 comics (including some really excellent ones) start at $1 with truly no reserve. This is the kind of buying opportunity every comic book collector dreams of, and when these auctions close on January 16, every one of these comics will have a new owner! Condition: fair to good. There is a semi-circular tear at the top of the spine on the cover and other defects, as seen in our many images. Note that this comic book will be sent to the winning bidder in a brand new Mylite4 protective sleeve and a full-back 100% acid-free backing board. Learn More about condition grades
