Falcon- Comandos em Acao(Editora Tres 1977) The Warehouse of Wonders presents the first four issues of Falcon, the Brazilian version of GI Joe or Action Man depending on where you live. When the GI Joe license was sold in Brazil, they were marketed as "Commandos in Action, Falcon." If the Joe Report is any indication, these toys were marketed toward South American middle-class children, and even then they were rather scarce during the years of 1977 to 1983. If you manage to find one of these toys, consider yourself to possess a rather small fortune.Falcon comic books were released alongside the first year of Falcon's release, and predate Marvel's GI Joe: A Real American Hero series by five years. Each issue features a rip roaring adventure featuring the Falcon commandoes taking on terrorists in just about any part of the world, and on the back there are classic advertisments for the then-new toys.All issues are VF condition!

White pages, sharp corners, perfectly aligned cover, tight staples, sharp square corners, no creases, marks, fading of any kind - no flaw whatsoever. We have never actually graded a book as MINT. To quote Phil Seuling: "Mint is a flavor of chewing gum."NM = Near MintThis is what most comics look like when purchased new, presuming no harassment on the racks. Tight staples, glossy cover, sharp corners, no marks, white pages. Any flaws are HINTS of a flaw. Maybe look very closely and you the perfectionist will see a miniscule mis-alignment of the cover with the pages, or the hint of the rounding of a corner. Run your fingers down the spine and you may feel a crease which isn't visible to the eye. Those are the kind of things which mean that nearly all "as new" comics are graded as Near Mint rather than Mint. You will notice that in our 1000s of listings, we don't use this grade either. VF-NM is usually our top grade.VF = Very FineExcellent condition. Sharp, bright and clean. May have minor spine wear or a small corner crease, or slight surface wear. Often, at first glance a Very Fine comic will appear Near Mint, although closer inspection will reveal trace ( but distinct) imperfections. This is typically the best grade seen for Silver Age comics.F = FineA nice book, still attractive to look at. An optimistic first glance might reasonably hope for a VF or even a VF-NM. Staples still firm, there is at least some gloss, good corners, but closer look reveals yet more imperfections.VG = Very GoodA solid book. Immediately visible but not dramatic flaws - conversely no dramatic virtues either. Just clean somewhat worn and solid. Maybe some creases but no significant tears. Staples still solid. Book still solid, but clearly worn. G = GoodAs VG, but with flaws more pronounced. Creases are a little bigger, maybe a larger tear, staples still well attached, but may have stress tears around them. There may be small chips out of the cover. The wear is everywhere but the book is still sound. FR = FairA Fair comic is well worn with large flaws, but the book and cover are still, possibly a piece or two missing from the cover, a staple may be loose. OK for a reader, a cheap placeholder for a collector.PR = PoorAny graded book should be complete. A book in POOR has its cover and all its pages. Things may be loose or waiting to get lost, there may be a piece missing here or there, but the book is there. Still readable. We do not give incomplete books a grade. Note that when a grade appears as (VG-F) or something similar, it means the book was somewhere in-between the two selected grades. And when a listing appears as (G+), it means that the book was slightly better than the grade described, or slightly less in the case of (G-). =====================================__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Holiday (AND ALWAYS) SHIPPING SCHEDULE:Almost all auctions ship within 1 business day after receiving payment, usually in 24 hrs or less; Nifty FREEBIE FUN PACK of Comics and Cards accompanies ALL (yes ALL!!) packages.Payment may be made via PayPal or credit cards.Pick up by appointment for all auctions and listings.
