*Marvel: When the Ant-Man name was unclaimed in the late 1970s, a brainier-than-average sneak-thief, Scott Lang, stole Hank Pym’s old apparatus and became the second bearer of that title! But it’s okay – he did bad things for good reasons, specifically to find a cure for his dying daughter, as was revealed in Marvel Premiere #47, the tale which (after a non-costumed cameo in Avengers #181) was Scott’s first full appearance. John Byrne and David Michelinie created this different take on the hero, and since then, Scott has had his ups and downs – been in jail a few times, been dead a few more, been a love-slave of the Purple Man – but he’s fought his way back to respectability, and has achieved cinematic stardom in three of his own movies plus appearances elsewhere in the MCU. Our latest copy of Marvel Premiere #47 is pence printed, bright, colourful and glossy, with tight, secure staples and white to off-white pages. Very minor spine ticks and some edge wear at the top do not break colour. A VERY faint crease (like part of a subscription crease) extends from the top edge centre down to the logo, but there’s only a slight suggestion of a colour break.
