Archer & Armstrong #1 (August 1991) - Valiant Comics Unity Chapter Three
This is a first-edition copy of Archer & Armstrong issue #1, published by Valiant Comics in August 1992 (though the cover date states 'Aug No.1'). This specific issue is notable for being 'Chapter Three' of the 'Unity' crossover event, as indicated by the blue banner at the top. The cover art features the character Armstrong lifting a red sports car over his head while Archer stands nearby, set against a predominantly white and yellow background. The comic is a standard US format (approx. 6.6 x 10.1 inches) and is constructed with a glossy cardstock cover and newsprint interior pages. The Valiant logo with its signature compass rose is prominently displayed in the upper-left corner alongside a $2.50 price point. The item appears to be stored in a modern protective plastic bag (poly-bag) with a backing board, which has helped preserve its flat appearance. There is a yellow circular price sticker ($5.00) on the top right corner of the outer bag, not the comic itself. Condition-wise, the spine shows minor stress lines, and there is slight blunting at the corners, though the colors remain vibrant. This era of Valiant comics is highly regarded for its crisp production quality during the early 1990s speculator boom.
