Owner's Description
Issue #140 features the origin and first appearance of Heat Wave, who teams up with Captain Cold in The Heat is on...for Captain Cold!
Our book comes from the fabled Pacific Coast collection and is one of two 9.8s in the census-the other being the Western Penn copy. Considered the greatest Silver Age collection to ever surface, the Pacific Coast collection was brought to market by Robert Roter after he discovered portions of it for sale on eBay in 1999. The books were marketed through PCE over the next several years and contained over 7,000 comics and magazines that included Marvel, DC, and Gold Key among others, covering a time span between 1961 and 1977. Many of the highest graded Marvel and DC issues from the early '60s hail from this collection with exceptional page quality. The books do not exhibit any distinguishing markings.
We acquired the book from the 5/26/2021 CL Auction.
