SUPERMAN 50 (VF+) ENGAGEMENT ISSUE, 1990, LEX LUTHER APPEARANCE (SHIPS FREE) *

Description: SUPERMAN 50 MR MXYZPTLK APPEARANCE DECEMBER 1990 Superman Origin Stuff When Jor-el, the top scientist of the planet Krypton, realized that his world was doomed, he sent his baby son, Kal-El, off into space in a rocket ship. The ship traveled far from the red sun of the exploding planet Krypton, eventually landing on Earth. There, the baby was found by a kindly old couple, the Kents, who dubbed him Clark and raised him as their own son. Our world's yellow sun gave Clark incredible powers, eventually turning him into the legendary hero Superman. Siegel and Shuster's creation was already the headliner in Action Comics when this solo Superman series began. Running for over forty-five years, this title introduced readers to Mr. Mxyzptlk, Kryptonite, and some of the most delightfully gimmicky Superman stories of all time. The series concluded in 1986 when John Byrne began a reinvention of Superman in The Man of Steel Mini-Series. It later picked up again as Adventures of Superman. Years later, DC restarted the series at # 1, by reinventing the Superman character, altering his origin somewhat and scaling back his powers to a more comprehensible level. The issues that follow are remembered as DC classics. Here is an opportunity to own some affordable, Mid-High Grade copies of these early Superman "classics", with only the most minor of imperfections allowable in these non-CGC graded comics. Item Description Stuff 8.5 VERY FINE+ (VF+): Fits the criteria for Very Fine but with an additional virtue or small accumulation of virtues that improves the book’s appearance by a perceptible amount. An excellent copy with outstanding eye appeal. Sharp, bright and clean with supple pages. A comic book is this grade has the appearance of having been carefully handled. A limited accumulation of minor bindery/printing defects is allowed. Cover is relatively flat with minimal surface wear beginning to show, possibly including some minute wear at corners. Inks are generally bright with moderate to high reflectivity. An unnoticeable 1/4" crease is acceptable if color is not broken. Stamped or inked arrival dates may be present. No obvious soiling, staining or other discoloration except for minor foxing. Spine is almost flat with no roll. Possible minor color break is allowed. Staples may show some discoloration. Very slight staple tears and a few almost very minor to minor stress lines may be present. No rust migration. In rare cases, a comic was not stapled at the bindery and therefore has a missing staple; this is not considered a defect. Any staple can be replaced on books up to Fine, but only vintage staples can be used on books from Very Fine to Near Mint. Mint books must have original staples. Paper is (no worse than) tan to cream and supple. No hint of acidity in the odor of the newsprint. Centerfold is mostly secure. Minor interior tears at the margin may be present.
