Mums the word! Also, don't mention that I have 3 original art pages to the Captain Freedom story! Shhhh  

Mentioning your original art has no effect on the scarcity of our Speed 27s!!

Don’t you think mum’s is the 2 words?

I mean, “mum’s“ is a contraction of “mum is”, so two words, right?  Unless the contraction converts two word into one word?  

And why “mum”??  Why not dad?  Or sis?  Or grass?  Or suppository?

"Mum" is the word.

Whether you say "mum's" the word, or "mum" is the word, "mum" is still just one word.

As for why "mum," from dictionary.com: Mum is an adjective that means keeping quiet."

If it were a code word, i'd go with suppository. "Suppository's the word!"

This is another Ace that fits that category: 9 in total on the census, all but one are 4.0 or lower. Highest graded is 8.5 

Ace seems to have a lot of very tough books. Here is my submission (only 9 universal on census but 12 total). 

[Marty Mann]

Only one copy listed.

Killer book! Wow  

I'd take 1.5's like that all day long. Twice on Sunday

Cheers. I don't mind the grade both because of the way it presents and the fact that it is the Kurtzman File copy.

This is an amazingly difficult book to acquire!!!! I only got as close as having a coverless, but sold it to a friend who had the covers and a few interior pages. GREAT book and the Kurtzman File is the cherry on top!!!

From the date stamp, that was probably bought as a child's Christmas gift (take that Wertham)
