Up for sale is a rare opportunity to own a first-print copy of The Peacemaker #1. This 1967 Charlton classic is the very first time Christopher Smith headlined his own series. Whether you are a fan of the modern DC Cinematic Universe or a Silver Age Charlton completionist, this is a cornerstone key issue.
This copy shows its history but remains a solid, complete, and fully readable addition to any collection.
Structural Integrity: The comic lies flat and is not warped. The binding remains functional and holds together nicely, though it is possible that the cover may be detached from one staple and the centerfold from the other.
The Covers: There are two deliberate corner cuts (top right and bottom left) on the front cover. The cover also shows significant vintage wear, including spine scuffing and "paint chips" (color breaks).
Markings: There is a large "2p" price mark written in pen on the front cover, a common sight on vintage UK-circulated copies.
Paper Quality: The internal pages are in surprisingly good shape with very little edge wear. Expect natural Silver Age foxing and tanning.
Overall: This is an "entry-level" copy of a major key issue. It is perfect for the collector who wants a genuine 1967 Charlton original without the high-grade price tag.
B&B: This comic is already Bagged and Boarded in archival-safe materials.
Safe Delivery: All comics will be packed securely, wrapped in bubble wrap, sandwiched between sturdy cardboard sheets and mailed in a waterproof or similar mailer / padded mailer.
Tracked Service: Fully tracked shipping provided for your peace of mind.
I have provided high-resolution photos of the clipped corners, the pen mark, and the staple attachments. Please review the images to see the authentic vintage condition of this Silver Age key.
