*Marvel: Well, we’ve been counting backwards from Ragnarok for some time now, and we’ve reached the penultimate stage in our Mighty Thor high grade Countdown, with Journey Into Mystery issues #84-90, featuring the first appearance of Thor’s evil stepbrother Loki, the first full appearance of Big Daddy Odin, and the debuts of the time-defying Tomorrow Man and the curiously gelatinous Carbon Copy Man! And Thor fights Commies. Lots and lots of them! As with previous entries in this strand, these are characterised by unusually prime grades, averaging VF and occasionally touching NM, an almost unprecedented grade for this vintage, and worthy of your attention for investment potential as well as the sheer beauty of seeing these artefacts in this superb condition. Grades and prices as follows:
#84 FN- p £375
#85 VF- £1000
#86 VF+ £760
#87 NM £1750
#88 VF+ £625
#89 VF+ p £550
