British Comics Update: Free Gift Farrago: High Grade Captain Britain #1 & #2 with Free Gifts
*Marvel UK: In addition to the debut and origin of Brian Braddock and his costumed alter ego by Chris Claremont and Herb Trimpe, 1976’s first two issues of Captain Britain, in the grand tradition of British weekly comics, featured giveaways – a Captain Britain mask with issue #1, and a Captain Britain Boomerang (pardon?) with #2. Our latest copies are both high grade and include the Free Gifts.
PICTURED: CAPTAIN BRITAIN
#1 VF WITH FREE GIFT VF/NM £300 Beautiful clean copy with excellent unmarked cover and page quality. Puzzle page not filled in. There is a back cover line which looks like a flaw in the printing process rather than a crease from wear, but this hardly detracts. Free Gift mask is perfect with eyeholes not pressed out, but no elastic band.
#2 VF WITH FREE GIFT NM £75 Beautiful clean copy with excellent unmarked cover and page quality. Puzzle page not filled in. There is a very faint line down the front left of cover which does not break colour and looks like a flaw in the printing process rather than a crease from wear, but this hardly detracts. Free Gift boomerang is perfect and not pressed out of backing sheet.
