Item Description

As a 40 year serious collector I have acquired a vast inventory of most major Marvel and DC titles, as well as many Independents, Graphic Novels, Trades and hard Cover books. I believe my grading to be conservative and based on one THING, Can the book pull the said grade from Third Party Graders Like CGC, and CBCS. Ive submitted many books for grading and I have also cracked out plenty of CGC and CBCS books for my personal collection over the years. I will securely and promptly ship all orders and will be more than happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have. I will continue adding more comics, cards and books to my store here. Thank You for stopping by for a look.Ive been an Hip member since 1999 and a Top Rated Hip seller with 100% Positive Feedback for over a decade.

The time has come for me to start selling my treasured High Grade Captain America collection. As a life long collector of high grade comic books I completed this Captain America Run, Yes ALL 454 issues. It took me a little over 10 years to complete the entire run in the higher grades I was looking for. Some were cracked out from CGC / CBCS slabs. I will be listing more my high grade Captain America books as time allows.

All the books I will be listing are Original unaltered books. None have ever been pressed or altered in any way.
I have been a long term seller of Comic Books and other collectables for over 20 Years and Hip Comic for the past 5 years. Please check my feedback.
My goal is a Smooth transaction with serious buyers looking to add higher grade Silver Age books to the collections.

* "If the Falcon Should Fall!" Part 2 of 2. Script by Steve Englehart. Pencils by Sal Buscema. Inks by Vince Colletta. Cover by Ron Wilson, Frank Giacoia, and John Romita Sr. (alterations). Using all his strength and skill, the Falcon fights the twin Lucifers to a standstill. Consequently,the Lucifers bring in three ultra-robots (from their old desert hideout) to engage their winged adversary! And during the next battle, the Falcon goes down to defeat. The Lucifers are poised to administer the coup de grâce when suddenly a masked man charges them! Wow, it's Steve Rogers! Is Captain America back in the game? Not exactly.

The letters page also contains Marvel Value Stamp series A #89 Hammerhead by John Romita Sr.) 36 pages.

* Up for your consideration and viewing pleasure comes another tough condition sensitive black cover on this classic Bronze Age Captain America issue #178 from October of 1974. A solid mid-grade book with some light surface and edge wear (No major Creasing) The book still display nice Original cover color and gloss along with a nice cover wrap the book has nice eye appeal. The interior is complete with nice page quality (NO: Cut Outs, Writing, Stains etc....) Tough call on this classic Cap book. It presents well with some minor surface and edge marks, but no creases of tears. I believe the book to be in the 6.5 FN+ grade range with most grading company's. A clean solid bronze Age Captain America issue.
