Tales of Suspense #39 CGC 9.6 for $375,000 ComicLink Sells Tales of Suspense #39 CGC 9.6 for $375,000 ComicLink has sold Tales of Suspense #39 in the condition of CGC 9.6, for $375,000. This is the second highest publicly reported sale ever for a comic published during the period known as the “Silver Age” of comic books, which represents the time period between late 1956 through 1969. It is also the single highest Silver Age sale that is not Spider-Man related. The scan of the comic book as well as the description can be viewed on the Comic Book Exchange section of ComicLink.com. “The importance of this issue has always been clear” says Nathanson. “Iron Man has been a major player in Marvel’s stable of heroes since his 1963 introduction, and was a founding member of the Avengers super-team. He has been featured in countless comic book storylines from that time until the present day, and has always been a popular superhero. However, with the release of two well done Iron Man movies, with Robert Downey Jr. playing Tony Stark to perfection in both, Iron Man has been solidified as an ‘A-list’ superhero with buzz comparable to that of Spider-Man’s.” “This near pristine example of Tales of Suspense #39 was a special offering and a prime opportunity for our discerning buyer to obtain one of the very best examples that will ever come available for purchase,” commented ComicLink Consignment Director Douglas Gillock. “Our firm is utilized by the most advanced collectors in the world to obtain access to the most desirable books in the world.” “We encourage collector-investors seeking material of the highest quality to contact us – we have longstanding relationships with the owners of some of the most valuable material in the hobby,” added Nathanson. “At the same time, we can be an enormous resource for those looking to add top investment quality comic books or comic art to an investment portfolio.” “Parties interested in investing or consigning top notch material may contact Josh Nathanson at (617) 517-0062, extension 101, or Douglas Gillock (617) 517-0062, extension 102. Though ComicLink frequently offers impressive material on it’s web site, there are many items that will never be sold in a public format. The most serious of Action Comics #1 CGC 6.5 investors should definitely give us a call.” $625,000 This is the highest sale ever for an example of Action Comics #1 or any other comic book in the condition of 6.5, and the third-highest amount ever paid for any example of Action Comics #1. Avengers #4 CGC 9.6 $91,501 Underscoring just how unusual it is for an Avengers #4 in CGC 9.6 NM+ to come to auction, it has been nearly 4 years since we have offered - Josh Nathanson, one for sale and this is the very first time we President have done so in auction format. “My greatest professional accomplishments Incredible Hulk #181 CGC 9.9 are ComicLink’s innovations and its reputation for integrity, reliability, and $150,000 outstanding service.” The issue is one of the most highly collected of - Josh Nathanson, all vintage Marvel comic books and we believe President that in CGC 9.9, this example is definitively the most significant single comic book graded by [email protected] | (617)517-0062 CGC published in the last 35 years..

Hawkeye and the Winter Soldier both dated her (it’s awkward). Hawkeye thinks she’s alive (and maybe killing other spies). The Winter Soldier thinks she’s dead (and someone else is killing spies). They caught the mystery killer trying to take out a Hydra official, but it wasn’t Nat--it was a different Black Widow by the name of Yelena Belova. So the search isn’t going great.

  • Marvel Comics Avengers Chronological Appearances by Bob Wolniak
    Marvel Comics Avengers Chronological Appearances By Bob Wolniak ased initially on the Bob Fronczak list from Avengers Assemble and Avengers Forever websites. But unlike Mr. B Fronczak’s list (that stops about the time of Heroes Reborn) this is NOT an attempt at a Marvel continuity (harmony of Marvel titles in time within the fictional universe), but Avengers appearances in order in approx. real world release order . I define Avengers appearances as team appearances, not individual Avengers or even in some cases where several individual Avengers are together (but eventually a judgment call has to be made on some of those instances). I have included some non-Avengers appearances since they are important to a key storyline that does tie to the Avengers, but noted if they did not have a team appearance. Blue (purple for WCA & Ultimates) indicates an Avengers title , whether ongoing or limited series. I have decided that Force Works is not strictly an Avengers title, nor is Thunderbolts, Defenders or even Vision/Scarlet Witch mini- series, although each book correlates, crosses over and frequently contains guest appearances of the Avengers as a team. In those cases, the individual issues are listed. I have also decided that individual Avengers’ ongoing or limited series books are not Avengers team appearances, so I have no interest in the tedious tracking of every Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, or Hank Pym title unless they contain a team appearance or x-over . The same applies to Avengers Spotlight (largely a Hawkeye series, with other individual appearances), Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel, Vision, Wonder Man, Hulk, She-Hulk, Black Panther, Quicksilver, Thunderstrike, War Machine, Black Widow, Sub-Mariner, Hercules, and other such books or limited series.

  • Thesis Final
    SENTINELS OF LIBERTY: CAPTAIN AMERICA, HIS DOUBLES, AND THE DILEMMA OF AMERICAN IDENTITY by Robert Wicks A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Wilkes Honors College in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts and Sciences with a Concentration in American Studies Wilkes Honors College of Florida Atlantic University Jupiter, Florida May 2009 SENTINELS OF LIBERTY: CAPTAIN AMERICA, HIS DOUBLES, AND THE DILEMMA OF AMERICAN IDENTITY by Robert Wicks This thesis was prepared under the direction of the candidate’s thesis advisor, Dr. Christopher B. Strain, and has been approved by the members of his supervisory committee. It was submitted to the faculty of The Honors College and was accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts and Sciences. SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: ___________________________ Dr. Christopher B. Strain ___________________________ Dr. Laura Barrett ___________________________ Dean, Wilkes Honors College ________ Date ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to too many people to list on this small page, but I’ll try to thank as many as possible. Dr. Chris Strain, for consistently telling me that all of my drafts needed more work, that my research was scant, and that I needed to re-work everything, thank you. If you’d told me I was doing fine, I probably would have taken a nacho break for a semester and been in serious trouble. To Dr. Laura Barrett, for reading over the final draft and adding a layer of polish that would have otherwise been absent. And to the entire staff of the Honors College, for making me so nervous that all I’ve ever tried to do is not look silly in your eyes… hopefully accomplishing something in the process.
