*Marvel: An even dozen of dynamic debuts from the 1960’s through to the 1980’s. A new addition to our lists is the A-Team, a comics adaptation of the popular TV show of the 80’s. #1 is from 1984, and the team of Jim Salicrup and Mirthful Marie Severin. Claws of the Cat is from 1972, with earlier Marie Severin pencils, rather beautifully inked by Wally Wood, for the first appearance of the woman who would become Tigra. The Champions was a short-lived team comprising a rather random line-up of Hercules, Black Widow, Angel, Iceman and Ghost Rider, and Doc Savage featured Marvel’s adaptation of the famous pulp hero of the 1930’s. Iron Fist gained his own series after a run in Marvel Premiere – the first issue features John Byrne art and an Iron Man cross-over; and speaking of Marvel Premiere, that series’ #1 presents the first Warlock solo, with superb Gil Kane art. Marvel Tales #1, from 1964, was the earliest of Marvel’s ‘ Greatest Hits’ reprint titles; and a few years later, 1967’s Not Brand Ecch #1 brought us pulsatin’ parodies, courtesy of an all-star lineup including Kirby, Everett, and John and Marie Severin. Spider-Woman #1 brought the unexpected hit character from Marvel Spotlight #32 into solo stardom, Tales of Asgard #1 gathered up classic Kirby works from the back of Thor, and Marvel and DC Present #1 teamed-up the X-Men and the New Teen Titans, with superlative Walt Simonson work. Skull the Slayer #1 rounds out this selection of mostly high-grade first editions, ripe for the plucking! Full grading and pricing information in our catalogue.
