ICYMI: Kaanga Comics 8 appears to be one of the toughest Fiction House comics in high grade, and features a spectacular cover by Maurice Whitman. Kaanga FictionHouse sponsored
\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n This issue has recently attracted some attention among serious vintage comic book collectors, as high grade copies have been virtually unheard of on the public marketplace in the CGC era. Last year, a CGC 5.5 copy went for $3960 at Heritage Auctions. Whitman is an underappreciated superstar of the late Golden Age, and this Summer 1951 cover-dated issue features some of his early cover artwork.
Kaanga eventually got his own comic book series from Fiction House which lasted for 20 issues 1949-1954.\nMaurice Whitman is best known for his gorgeous Good Girl art comic book covers that practically define the late Fiction House era. Whitman worked with major studios of his day, including Funnies, Inc., Chesler Studio, and Iger Studio, creating comic book art for publishers such as Charlton, DC Comics, and Fiction House.
