Owner's Description
In "The Super-Safecracker Who Defied the Law!" a criminal calling himself called the Hyper-Thief stages a series of daring robberies in which he leaves no trace evidence behind him. The Hyper-Thief taunts the police by telling them that he uses a hyper-space device to transport items to his hideout.
When Atom is called in to investigate, items in a safe disappear while Atom is busy stopping another crook trying to steal it the old fashioned way. After some investigating the situation as Ray, with his lab assistant Enrichetta Negrini, Ray searches for the energy wavelength of the supposed hyper-space transmissions.
As Atom, Ray travels through the signal to the Hyper-Thief's hideout. There he learns that the Hyper-Thief is not quite as crafty as once thought, after defeating the crook Atom learns that the crook works for a safe making company and rigged all the safes with a false bottom which would allow him to give the illusion that the loot was transported somewhere else so that he can go back and steal it at a later date.
Our book here has it all: single highest graded with white pages and Rocky Mountain Pedigree. This pedigree was assigned to a large Marvel and DC Silver Age collection originally auctioned by Comiclink in 2008. The Spider-Man, Fantastic Four and X-men runs were first auctioned without pedigree, but due to high collector interest the decision was made by CGC to classify the collection as a pedigree. Subsequently those three runs were retroactively given the Rocky Mountain notation. Hailing from Colorado, the collection numbered around 5,000 books, initially stored in a basement in similar conditions to the Mile High collection. None of the books exhibit identifying marks, but are easily traceable back to Comiclink.
We acquired the book from a ComicConnect auction on 7/26/2018.*
