American Comics Update: The Good Doctor Collection: Start of Sub-Mariner series in Tales To Astonish #70
*Marvel: As they put it, Marvel bowed to our demands and gave Prince Namor, the Sub-Mariner his own series in the front of Tales To Astonish, replacing Giant-Man & the Wasp with #70 of that series. The pageantry and spectacle of Atlantis came to Marvel on a regular basis, with the start of this multi-part storyline ‘The Quest’, featuring Lady Dorma and the villainy of Warlord Krang. It also boasted Marvel’s newest artistic talent Adam Austin, who was later revealed to be none other than Gene Colan with his Silver Age debut. And as if that wasn’t enough, the Hulk continued in the same issue by Stan & Jack. The Good Doctor Collection copy is a nice one, pence stamped, with great colour and some gloss. Some spine ticks and a couple of short spine creases which do not break colour. Firm staples and supple white to off-white pages.
