Captain Science #1
Youthful Magazines
Nov 1950
VF 8.0 Light Tan to Off-Whi






Captain Science models the latest in modern space attire -- a see-through suit (with green tights) -- on this Walter Johnson-illustrated cover. Inside, Wally Wood provides art for the "Monster God of Rogor" story, and the early sci-fi film Destination Moon is is discussed in a text feature. A very handsome copy. Comic has tremendous cover colors and eye appeal. It also still retains much of its original gloss. There is light spine and corner wear, but corners are square, just not sharp. There is a slight bump to the bottom of the spine that has caused a small hairline crease that barely breaks color for about 1/2". Somebody put an "M" in pencil on the front cover. Back cover has a bit of dirtiness along spine, with a few small stress lines, nothing severe. No tears or chips whatsoever. Interior pages are supple, but tanned around edges, graduating to off-white. 2007 Overstreet Guide value for this grade is $550.
