Just for WooWoo

DETECTIVE COMICS #8

$18,000

OCT 1937; CGC 8.0 (2nd highest graded). This book is one of the first 250 or so comics ever published, and pre-dated Action #1 by eight months. A classic Creig Flessel cover featuring Mister Chang, with a sinister grin on his face.

This copy is in remarkable condition, with no single major defect to be found. A very rare book indeed with the Gerber Photo Journal giving it a 7 on their scarcity scale. It's estimated that less than 50 copies exist today. Flessel and Joe Shuster art.

So which is it BASIL? :baiting:  

 

Is Action 29 the FIRST LOIS cover or is it ACTION 27  which shows a girl in the corner while SUPE fights a lion that looks a lot like LOIS:wink:

which is currently on display at ComicLINK with the subtitle "1st Lois Lane Cover".........

 

Has  anyone actually  read that one at all?  Does the story mention LOIS? 2c
