American Update: Slab Happy Meets Mighty Marvel Firsts: Ms. Marvel – A Captain in the Making! Carol Danvers First Solo Series, with #1 and Debut of the X-Men’s Mystique
*Marvel: Five of Carol Danvers’ first solo series, when she stepped out of the shadow of Captain Marvel’s supporting cast and became a hero in her own right, decades before assuming the role of the Captain herself! Issue #1 is CBCS 8.5 VF+ equivalent at £100; #12 is CGC 9.4 (NM) at £35; #13 is CGC 9.4 (NM) £30; #16, featuring the first cameo appearance of Raven Darkholme (who would become better known as the X-Men’s Mystique) is CGC 9.4 (NM) at £65 and #17, with the second Darkholme/Mystique cameo, is CGC 9.4 (NM) at £50. Carol, as Captain Marvel, was of course the central character of a recent eponymous movie hit, and is set to be a major figure in the upcoming Avengers: Endgame, so all the character’s earlier appearances are picking up value rapidly. SORRY, #1 NOW SOLD
