Mystic Comics #8 (1st Series; Timely 1942): Black Marvel, Blazing Skull & More Al Gabriele, George Klein, Howard James, Syd Shores – Art Stan Lee, Otto Binder – Story. This sale is for the Mystic Comics #8 (1st Series; Timely; Mar 1942) pictured above. This comic is coverless and incomplete, with only 60 of 64 interior pages present and accounted for (Mystic #8 should be a 68-page book — the front/back covers plus 64 interior pages). The missing material includes the centerfold (interior wrap 16, aka interior pages 31-34). Pages 31-33 are the last three pages of the fifteen-page Destroyer story. Page 34 is the first page of the seven-page Witness story. This fragment comes with a nice, unattached reproduction cover (printed on glossy paper stock similar to the original cover stock). There is tape along the full length of the first wrap spine (probably placed to prevent a small split from becoming larger). Other notable features and flaws include: Coverless and incomplete. Missing 4 of 64 interior pages — specifically, centerfold wrap 16 (aka pages 31-34). Light wear overall, with heavier wear to outermost wrap (chunk out at bottom edge of last page, with 3½ taped tear). Light soiling to outermost wrap. Taped spine (outermost wrap only). Clean staples (no rust). Supple off-white to white pages. 60 interior pages (15 interior wraps). First wrap detached at top staple but securely attached at bottom staple.
