Item Description
The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide 34th Edition lists the book as scarce. Published by Sun Publications, this title only made it for one issue, this one. It contains the second story to feature Colossus, (the first was in a similar book that also saw only one issue published, Green Giant Comics). It also features the infamous hero, Tulpa of Tsang, in addition to other stories featuring Blond Garth, Lum Sims and Lucky Lucifer. The title functioned as an anthology with several heroes sharing the book. The cover may look incredibly amateurish, even for the day but that is part of its incredible charm. The premise of a large monster grabbing spaceships is actually a great one for the time. The pages are light tan to off-white. The book is CGC-certified FN+ 6.5. According to their census, it is the second highest graded copy they have seen. This is a true anomaly in the history of comics.
