Grade: 5.0
Astonishing #48 (April 1956) was published by Atlas Comics , the precursor to Marvel Comics, during the final years of the pre-Marvel monster and suspense era. Atlas horror and suspense titles from the mid-1950s are highly collectible due to their atmospheric storytelling and contributions from legendary artists including Bill Everett, Jay Scott Pike, Bob Powell, and John Forte . The issue features suspense and horror stories typical of the Atlas era, blending mystery, supernatural themes, and twist endings that later influenced Marvel's monster comics of the early 1960s. Atlas-era books are especially popular among collectors seeking pre-Marvel horror comics , making graded examples increasingly desirable. This copy is professionally graded CGC 4.5 (Very Good+) with Light Tan to Off-White Pages , presenting solid eye appeal for a mid-grade example from the 1950s Atlas horror run.
