Flying Saucers #1 (1950, Avon) — F+ 6.5

Classic pre-Code sci-fi with art by Wally Wood and Bob Fujitani, and a striking Gene Fawcette cover featuring early flying saucer imagery — complete with spotlights in the background. This landmark Avon one-shot predates much of the UFO pop culture boom of the 1950s, making it a highly desirable key for both comic and sci-fi collectors.

📚 Stories include:

  • The Flying Saucers — Professor Lanning awakens ancient aliens beneath a South American volcano, unleashing war on humanity.

  • The Eyes of the Tiger — A cautionary tale about why pet tigers are a bad idea.

  • Plus a backup Goofy Ghost story.

📝 MAJ. PICTO’S GRADING NOTES
F+ (6.5) — Solid mid-high grade copy with strong cover colors, minimal wear, and an intact spine. Bright interior pages and excellent presentation for this early Avon sci-fi gem.

📖 36 pages, full color. Cover price $0.10.
