HOPING FOR A RE-ACTION...


Copyright DC COMICS

I acquired the above comic many, many years ago.  Either the late '70s or early '80s, but I'm not exactly sure, to be honest.  May even have been a little later than that, but not by much.  I say 'comic', but to be more precise, it seems to have been extracted from a 'parent' publication - probably ACTION COMICS, I would imagine.  It's dated 1976 in the indicia, and the cover is not glossy - just regular newsprint comic paper. 

Does anyone know for sure which comic it comes from?  Any details would be greatly appreciated.

    There were a couple of Action #1 give-aways in 1976. One was for a sleeping bag, the other is for Safeguard soap. You can tell which one it is by the ad on the back cover. Hope this helps!

    Thanks, GA - it's the sleeping bag one I've got.

    I'll add it later. It's already been tucked away back in my filing cabinet.

      Well, it only took me around 12 years and 3 months, but I've finally added the back cover to the post.
