American Update: The Good Doctor Collection: Mighty Marvel Firsts: Debut of the Abomination in Tales To Astonish #90
*Marvel: Tales To Astonish #90 is a great package art-wise. Beneath a Jack Kirby Sub-Mariner cover, you get a Subby story illustrated by his creator Bill Everett, and a Hulk story by Gil Kane, all giants in the field; this was still in the day when Stan Lee wrote everything, of course. However, it is for the debut of the Hulk’s nemesis the Abomination that this issue is now chiefly prized. The Abomination has already had a couple of outings in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but this summer he’s coming to the (not so) small screen in the forthcoming She-Hulk TV series. The Good Doctor copy is a lovely cents copy, with very rich cover colour, supple off-white pages and firm, tight staples. There is a minimum of edge wear (mainly at top edge), a couple of soft dinks at top and bottom of spine (which are barely noticeable and do not break colour) and a very soft crease along the upper right edge (also non-colour breaking). This copy presents very well and looks nicer than the grade we’ve assigned.
