*Marvel: A pair of premiere appearances from Cap’s Silver Age: firstly, the lovely but lethal Madame Hydra (also known as the Viper, depending on who’s writing her in a given week) in Cap #111, one of the handful of issues drawn by the legendary Jim Steranko. The combination of the debut of a significant villainess and the superlative Steranko art makes this copy, FN/VF p at £30, a relative bargain. Soon afterwards, in #117, Cap encountered Sam Wilson, the Falcon, for the first time, beginning a partnership that would span the decades and continue into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This copy of Falc’s (and Redwing’s!) debut is a cents copy, VG/FN at £60. Generally in excellent shape, the only drawback is a cover crease (probably a subscription crease), extending from roughly the position of the Falcon’s extended left hand down to the base of the cover, slightly off the vertical. That aside, this is a highly presentable copy. SORRY, CAP #111 HAS NOW SOLD
