Item Description

As a 40 year serious collector I have acquired a vast inventory of most major Marvel and DC titles, as well as many Independents, Graphic Novels, Trades and hard Cover books. I believe my grading to be conservative and based on one THING, Can the book pull the said grade from Third Party Graders Like CGC, and CBCS. Ive submitted many books for grading and I have also cracked out plenty of CGC and CBCS books for my personal collection over the years. I will securely and promptly ship all orders and will be more than happy to answer any questions or concerns you may have. I will continue adding more comics, cards and books to my store here. Thank You for stopping by for a look.Ive been an Hip member since 1999 and a Top Rated Hip seller with 100% Positive Feedback for over a decade.

The time has come for me to start selling my treasured High Grade Captain America collection. As a life long collector of high grade comic books I completed this Captain America Run, Yes ALL 454 issues. It took me a little over 10 years to complete the entire run in the higher grades I was looking for. Some were cracked out from CGC / CBCS slabs. I will be listing more high grade Silver Age Cap books as time allows.

All the books I will be listing are Original unaltered books. None have ever been pressed or altered in any way.
I have been a long term seller of Comic Books and other collectables for over 20 Years and Hip Comic for the past 5 years. Please check my feedback.
My goal is a Smooth transaction with serious buyers looking to add higher grade Silver Age books to the collections.

In recent days Cap has seen and heard advertisements on TV and radio -- accusing the star-spangled avenger of being a reckless vigilante and unworthy of the public's trust. The Living Legend is taken aback by the negative ads and seeks out the organization responsible: the Committee to Regain America's Principles. Why is this group with its leader, Quentin Harderman, coming after Captain America? Inauspiciously, Cap's pursuit of the answer must wait once the Tumbler appears! And wait even longer when the battle vs. the Tumbler takes a deadly turn! Meanwhile, the Falcon seeks help from the Black Panther inupgrading his fighting gear. First (cameo) appearance of Lloyd Bloch (aka the first Moonstone). Cameo appearances by Sharon Carter, Leila Taylor, and Contessa Valentina Allegra de la Fontaine.

This book is one I Removed/Cracked-Out from a CGC 8.5 VFN+ Graded Slab for my Captain America collection.
