Detective #192, a 40 page book from 1952, the year of the odd page counts. Robotman story.

There is a small damage lower right, hopefully from bugs, and an obvious spine roll. Color is nice! Chemistry cover! Grade is Gd+ (2.5 ) because of the spine roll but it's probably better, bin is $30.00 sold to mdean2437

Action 242, The first appearance of a major Superman Villain, Brainiac, and the first appearance of the City of Kandor.

The book is complete. The book has great color, nice gloss, many of these are faded. There is some drawing on Superman's face, It has some creasing but not as much as most of the lower grade books have.
The  staples are out of the book and the book has been restapled to hold it together (not by me, I got it this way.

There is a cover spine split from the top staple to about midway in the book. It looks like there are splits for most of the wraps you can see under that split, but I don't want to play with it. There are a few pieces of tape on the spine and a small tear at the top, that has a crease. I don't think the spine is completely split, but it's possible there are a few more splits.

The book is easily read and does not appear to be brittle. There are two smallish pieces missing from inside margins. I had a hard time pricing this, but it's probably the lowest priced complete decent looking copy you will find.. Bin is $365.00

There are a whole bunch of pictures in spoiler tags
