 Published by DC Comics in 1964. 

High cover gloss and a relatively smooth cover.  Light soiling, the heaviest is in the lower right title box.  Small amounts of discoloring/wear along the bottom edge and along the upper right edge, mostly to the right and below an inch from the issue number (under the comics code box), all of which is so slight that it barely shows up on the supersize image.  The supersize image faithfully renders the dot of wear halfway up the back of Mon-El's (red costume guy's) arm and a slight color breaking crease up from the spine to the left of his thigh up thru his cape.  Some color scuffing within 3 millimeters of the spine and heaviest in that area to the left of last sentence's crease.  Barely noticeable spine stress marks and very slight color scuffing of the spine.  The apparent spine stress mark to the left of Mon-El's knee is actually part of an almost invisible crease (even so a hint of it shows up on the supersize image, even on the cover you have to hold the cover at an angle to the light to detect 70% of it) that runs the width of the cover.  Other non-color breaking creases.  Some rounding and wear at the edges and corners.  The book lies relatively flat.  Nicely placed staples and a nicely cut cover.  The pages are mostly off-white to a light tan at the edges and are in wonderful condition.  Overall evaluation: While I have seen many experienced eBay sellers list books of lower quality as VF-, we could imagine some graders cite the color breaking crease and award it a F+.  The two grading guides we use are ambiguous on this topic.  A beautiful looking book extremely difficult to find in such great condition. 

Comic Grading - Definition of a Crease.
     
Crease - A fold which causes ink removal, usually resulting in a white line.  This seems to be the sense of what a crease is to Overstreet's Grading Guidelines and most comic graders.  We note two categories of creasing in our descriptions, 1) color breaking and 2) non-color breaking. 
 
For a color breaking crease, it must show that white line, though of course the thickness, length, and cover location of the crease are all important factors in how severely the crease actually degrades the cover's impact.
 
A non-color breaking crease is technically not a crease since it doesn't break color, but to those of us who have spent hours obsessing over our books, it is an interruption in the gloss or how the cover reflects light.  Take a smooth unblemished white sheet of paper and press your thumb nail into it several times using varying amounts of pressure.  As the paper is white there is no break in color, but depending on lighting and its angle to the paper eventually you would be able to see every point where the nail impressed the paper.  Again the noticeability, number, and locations of non-color breaking creases are factors affecting the quality of the cover.
 
If a cover is generally smooth, this means the non-color breaking creases present are interfering little with the cover's appearance.  These kinds of creases range from unnoticeable in normal viewing conditions to very intrusive.  A comic must be very carefully handled to avoid leaving these impressions at the edges.
 
Unfortunately, scans of the covers, even the enlargeable images we employ, do not always fully depict these imperfections.  We try to fill in the gaps by offering our estimate of what the Overstreet Grade would likely be, and by giving a detailed written description. 
 
Like most comic buyers and graders we have exchanged thoughts with, we agree that Overstreet Grading Guidelines provide a helpful starting point to access a book's quality, but we all have our own tastes and biases, and sharp disagreements on various books as well as complaints about Overstreet's approach.  Different books will impress you differently than they would us, which is why we try to be detailed and factual.  We are merely trying to provide my buyers with enough background so the book received satisfies or exceeds the expectations generated by our listing.
  
  Please note the $4.00 handling fee for this purchase. Fees charged do not fully compensate for labor and materials necessary to process a purchase.  Purchases will ship within 5 business days.
 
As of this listing over 90% of all issues of Detective Comics 268 to 400, Action Comics 282 thru 482, & Worlds Finest 115 to 244, are in stock.  We have many Silver Age DC titles.  Open to requests for individual issues to list in store!
   
Expert Shipping!!!  We are very careful shippers.  We have shipped thousands of comics commercially.  Out of 1500+ shipments, there has not been a single report of a packing problem.  Packing materials are light weight and nearly impervious to harm! 
 
We have tried to be precise and reasonable in our grading.  However, since grading has many gray areas ... No Condition is guaranteed.  No one can catch or describe every flaw, though generally our listings in detail and accuracy surpass 90% of other sellers.  Better yet, with enlargeable images for every item you can make sounder judgements about the quality of the item.  Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or want additional scans via email.

We are past due for Palestinian American heroines!
Format: Hardcover
Such an engaging read for this adult. How many books for older children have a Palestinian American main character as engaging as Ida? Not since Amani in "The Shepherd's Granddaughter" by Anne Laurel Carter (2010) or Liyana in "Habibi" by Naomi Shihab Nye (1997). We need diverse books and MORE of them. They are good food for discussion.

Best LitRPG
Format: Kindle
This is absolutely the best litRPG I've ever read as well as the best self-published series. Between the character progression, the amazing sense of humor, and the relatability of the characters, this is my top recommendation for anyone interested in litRPGs. I fell in love so much that I had to sign up for the Patreon account so I could get my fix regularly (5 new chapters each week). I even managed to get my roommate hooked on the audiobooks. If you're looking for a fun story with loveable characters, surprising insights, and epic fights, this is for you.
