Phoenix #1 ~ Atlas Comics (Seaboard), January 1975. Typical American saddle-stitched comic book with four-color cover and interior. 36 pages including covers. Great Dick Giordano and Sal Amendola cover. Interior is by Sal Amendola. Story by Jeff Rovin. We got several copies of this from new old stock from a Nashville dealer who went out of business in the mid-1970s and put them in climate controlled storage. They are all in approximately the same condition but the scan is probably not the actual copy you will get.

Very light wear: very fine. As always, grading of comics is subjective so check out my scan and be sure this copy would have a home in your collection before bidding or buying.

Although comic book grading is still somewhat subjective, you can expect that the grade I assign to a comic will be accurate. I find that I'm more strict a grader than most people dealing on eBay. I've been dabbling in collectible comics since the late-1960s and participated in the WSA program (#1305) which provided a code of ethics for comics dealers. I've contributed material to the Overstreet Price Guide and published articles in a variety of comic book related periodicals including Comic Book Marketplace, Comic Source, Golden Age Greats, Best of the West, and others.
