I recently stumbled onto this. The Australian edition of Cap 1 from around 55. I found no information at all about this book.

Look at what they did to Caps costume!

Bucky is wearing a diaper! And Cap has short sleeves.

I think the Aussies were making fun of us! :mad:

I agree. Really nice copy! 8.0 Is that nice sweet spot in grade for these pch books! The Atlas Tales site lists a nice lineup of artists in this issue including Joe Sinnott, Gene Colan and Myron Fass. (thumbs u

Thanks for the kind words. It was sold to me as a raw VF 8.0 about 5 years ago. Wasn't sure it would make the original grade (thought it would be about a 7.0-7.5). Sent it to CGC last year at WWChicago, & I was definitely pleased with the results :)

..... that's just the tip of the iceberg for Supernerd's books. Here's a recent eBay win that falls into the "tired of waiting for a nice one" category. GOD BLESS...

I'm glad that you totally understand; now please 'splain it to me. After all, if it's slobbed, err, slabbed, it can't be read now, can it?

The first story is by Stan Lee. Here's the splash for the rat story;
