American Update: 2 low grade FF debut issues — Silver Surfer/Galactus & Black Panther
*Marvel: Two issues with three premier appearances this update: Fantastic Four #48, which featured not only the debut of the planet-devouring Galactus, but also of his herald, the Silver Surfer, and FF #52, which brought the world the hereditary defender of Wakanda, the Black Panther! Both these highly desirable issues are seldom found in affordable grades, but this pair buck the trend; the FF #48 is FA/GD p at £60. With moderate cover wear and creasing, but no serious image impediment, it has clean decent off-white interiors, but two additional staples have been added by an over-zealous previous owner. The #52 is FA p at £55, with light to moderate cover creasing, good interiors, and a previous pencil/crayon price in the centre of the cover image which someone has attempted to erase, without complete success. Nevertheless, despite their drawbacks, they are affordable and decent copies of two Marvel Milestones. SORRY, #48 NOW SOLD
