American Update: 1st Black Panther (Fantastic Four #52) plus Black Panther #1
*Marvel: A double dose of debuts for the Black Panther this week: firstly, the premier appearance of Wakanda’s favourite son in Fantastic Four #52, where he crosses paths with the first family of the Marvel Universe in what was a groundbreaking event – the first Afro-Carribean superhero ever. This copy is VG-, with the only significant defects being cover chipping at the upper left and lower right corners, and weakness around the upper staple. Offered at a bargainacious £50. Next up – they searched for it! They fought, and even killed for it! But you don’t have to do that, as you can *buy* Black Panther’s first solo issue from 1977, VF/NM £25, and discover the awful truth behind “King Solomon’s Frog!”
