Alex Schomburg Covers the Black Terror #11, Up for Auction
The Black Terror stops a bank robbery with force, and you can own it by bidding at Heritage Auctions today.
Even if you're not already a Golden Age comic book fan, the Black Terror might still look familiar to you. He's been revived on a few occasions in more recent decades, and his costume seems to have inspired still more modern variations. Of course, readers of Alan Moore's Tom Strong series would recognize him as well. Debuting in Exciting Comics #9 in 1941, the character was a hit and carried that Standard/Better/Nedor title for years, in addition to spinning off his own series plus appearing in the title America's Best Comics. There's a great example of the character in his own title with a gorgeous cover by Alex Schomburg, Black Terror #11 (Nedor, 1945) Condition: VG up for auction in the 2023 February 23 The Thrillingly Exciting Heroes of Nedor Comics Showcase Auction #40219 at Heritage Auctions.
