American Update: Mighty Marvel Firsts: Debut of the Enchantress and the Executioner in Journey Into Mystery #103
*Marvel: From Journey into Mystery #103, when the Asgardian landscape was still ‘settling down’ in the relatively new Thor strip, two figures debuted who were to make a lasting impact in the life of the God of Thunder: The Executioner, a menacing figure whose might almost equalled that of the God of Thunder himself; and the Enchantress, mightiest of sorceresses, who was to become Thor’s most beloved enemy, occasionally doing good deeds because of her unrequited feelings for Thor – but never for long! Two of the most powerful characters in the Marvel mythos, the diabolical duo have bestrode the four-colour cosmos for decades, and this is where their infamous careers began! This pence printed copy has a fair bit of edge wear and colour-breaking creasing, but the cover colours are good and the pages sound, apart from one small margin tear with margin-only loss. Small spine splits at top and bottom cover; staples reasonably tight at cover and centre. A good, honest issue from Stan & Jack.
