*Marvel: There’s been a sharp increase in interest in Avengers #8, featuring the first appearance of Kang, the villain from the future, following his casting announcement in the upcoming Ant-Man 3 movie, accompanied by the news that he’ll be the major villain in Avengers 5. This issue is a tense drama, with the World’s Mightiest Heroes all but helpless in the face of his futuristic technology. In this Lee/Kirby classic, the powerhouses of the team are effortlessly immobilised, leaving the fate of the Avengers, and the world, in the hands of the Wasp and Rick Jones! Kang, of course, became (and remains) a thorn in the side of multiple Avengers teams, but this is his first appearance in the Marvel Universe. This VG copy features a small upper spine split, a small interior page margin tear, a small arrival date, and a ‘100’ marked on the front cover (just to the right of Mjolnir), but is a tight & bright very respectable cents copy.
