Description: USA Comics is one of the many titles that eventually got folded into the Marvel catalog, but many of the characters and stories from the Golden Age are rarely seen. Marvel didn't help that any by discontinuing their Marvel Masterworks (MMW) line of reprints. Grab this collection of patriotic war comics - with that beautiful spot gloss work on the book jacket - before it, too, is gone. Details below of what's included. See pictures for all items' condition (there's a little bend to the top right corner of the cover, but not enough to affect the readability or, honestly, collectability of this volume).

I’ve got a kid now, and that means more expenses and less room for fun collectibles, which is all terribly sad. Except for the having a kid part. But my pain is your gain (is that anything?) because I’m pricing everything to sell! Plus I will include in every shipment an extra thing that you will not want! What a treat! The Alex Guarantee is that if you do want the dumb, free thing I include in your package, you can return it to me for your money back. (But just what you spent on that dumb, free thing. Which was nothing. Please don’t send me back any dumb, free things. I’m trying to clear out room, remember?) --FAQs-- Shipping Will I combine shipping on multiple items? Probably! Do I ship internationally? I don’t know! I haven’t done much of that, but if you’re willing to cover the extra shipping cost, I don’t see why not. In either case, make sure you click “Add to cart” and then in your cart click “Request total.” Authenticity Any signatures, personalizations, and remarques were personally acquired from the creators by me (unless otherwise noted), and I’ll be happy to provide a certificate of authenticity to that effect upon request. Condition All gradings noted for my comics, books, and other collectibles are my own (unless otherwise noted), but good news! I worked at a comic shop for nearly ten years, and I’ve been seriously collecting for more than twenty years. So I may not be a CGC employee, but I am more experienced grading than most. I've also stored them away from sunlight, smoke, extreme temperatures and other stuff that likes to eat paper and plastic alive. I also make every effort to preserve the condition of what you’re buying while shipping. All single issues will come bagged and boarded, as will most standard-sized trades and hardcovers. All shipments will include appropriate padding and reinforcement to keep the stressed-out mail carrier from damaging it when they toss it onto your doorstep in order to meet their timing requirement and make rent this month. If you want more pictures of any item, just let me know. I get it!
