Item Description

This book has deep rich color and decent eye-appeal but for a small chunk out at the soldier's backside on the front cover, sigh on this all-time-classic 1st Congorilla cover! There are repairs on the inner-spine. The staples are still attached at the spine and the centerfold. We have adjusted the grade accordingly. There is a lower-outer corner-bend on the front cover and a couple of pages which do not affect the story artwork.

1ST APPEARANCE, ORIGIN - Congorilla! Becomes Congo Bill in latter issues.
APPEARANCE - Tommy Tomorrow backup story!
