Item Description
This copy belongs to the San Francisco pedigree. Cover artists Joe Simon
and Jack Kirby place Sandman and Sandy smack dab in the middle of a World War II
battlefield. The heroes are aiding the Allies' cause by taking out enemy tanks
with a bazooka. As Sandman pulls the trigger, Sandy has another shell ready to
go. The action is real and the heroes are focused on winning. It is a striking
image that emphasizes everything Simon and Kirby were great at. This is the last
issue to feature their work on the Sandman. The title is one of DC’s
longest lasting. It finally saw cancellation in 1983 with issue #503. Over the
years the book was home to a dozen classic heroes. The pages are white. The book
is CGC-certified 9.4 (NM). According to the CGC Census, this is the highest
graded copy they have seen.
