American Update: Mighty Marvel Firsts: Debut of Mr. Sinister in X-Men #221
*Marvel: Adventures in Retailing: Back in the early days of 30th Century, we of course attracted the local groups of youths on their way home from school, cajoling each other to ‘buy this one, it’s fick!’, or asking ‘You got any Versus?’. The name of the X-Men arch-foe debuting in X-Men #221 was a little difficult for them, so he was duly dubbed ‘Mr Sister‘. A manipulative scientist who usually prefers to work through agents, Mr. Sinister has become a regular in the Marvel Universe, with a predilection for genetic engineering. After a couple of references and shadowy half-appearances in earlier issues, it was here in #221 that he was first fully revealed. This is a lovely high grade copy, flat, tight and glossy with just very minor stress marks at the spine.
