Overstreet 2021 VF 8.0 value = $8. CGC census 6/22: 9 in 8.0, 151 higher. "Sabre Clash!" Written by Archie Goodwin. Art by Carmine Infantino and Gene Day.

It is so much fun to go back and see all of these oddball characters they created for these comics before anyone cared at all about continuity. Imagine them trying to do that in the Marvel Comics today; there would be riots and many angry tweet threads.

But the Star Wars issues are of a different time, and boy, are they fun. This is a fun run to put together, and if you need this issue, especially graded, here is your opportunity. $1? Come on now. Go here to get more info and to place a bid on this one to get it for a steal. While you are there, go ahead and check out all of the other books that are taking bids today.
