For your kind consideration is this copy of Superman #176 from 1965. This Silver Age classic features a Curt Swan cover in which Superman teaches the jury how to write in cursive. It includes three stories, all penciled by Curt Swan, and they are: "Revenge of the Super-Pets," written by Henry Boltinoff, "Tales of Green Kryptonite No. 2," written by Otto Binder and "Superman's Day of Truth," written by Leo Dorfman.     

Look, we've all had it happen. You purchase a comic book on some selling platform, whether it's an auction site or live selling app. You're all excited because you got the book for a "steal" (the seller even said so). You then receive the book in the mail only to discover that the centerfold is detached or the MVS is missing or there's staining/tanning/foxing on the back cover that the seller never revealed in their description. Well, that won't happen here. I reveal every noticeable defect on every raw book I sell. I also give you an idea of the grade of the book. In other words, I'm as transparent as possible, all the time, every time.          

In the title, I refer to the condition of this book as "VG/FN 5.0ish." Translation: were you to send this book in to be professionally graded and slabbed, I estimate it would come back somewhere between a 4.5/VG+ (very good plus) and a 5.5/FN- (fine minus). Please understand, I am NOT a professional grader. This is only MY best guess, based on hundreds of submissions to CGC, of the grade of this book, nothing more. I share this grade estimate to give you a better understanding as to the condition of the book and because I'm just that nice. 

As evidenced by the pics I have provided, here are the noticeable flaws with this book: several spine stress lines on each cover (pics 1-4 & 11), ink loss/color rub along spine of front cover (pics 1, 3 & 4), light subscription crease on back cover (pics 2 & 11), color-breaking crease at top left corner of back cover (pics 2 & 11). The book is complete and the staples are tight at the cover (pics 7-9) and centerfold (pic 12). Please view all 12 pics I have provided to help you determine YOUR grade estimate for this book, thanks. 

FYI, I include a free, raw mystery book with every purchase, usually from the same title...just a little incentive for you, that's all.

Your newly acquired copy of Superman #176 will be shipped to you, via USPS ground advantage mail, no later than the day after receiving payment (unless, of course, that day is a Sunday), bagged, boarded, swaddled in a feathery bed of bubble wrap and secured within a Gemini comic book mailer. 

Please check out my other listings. I add new books all the time.

Finally, thanks for your time and consideration, both are greatly appreciated.
