PACole Collection
Tony Stark makes his first appearance in this classic collectible from 1963, in which the playboy munitions tycoon is wounded and taken captive while helping the U.S. government fight the Vietcong—before escaping by constructing an armored battle suit. (The magnetized arc reactor also slows the approach of some shrapnel inching toward Stark's heart.) After decades of being a Marvel mainstay, Iron Man would ultimately be chosen to launch Marvel Studios in 2008. Robert Downey Jr.'s popular portrayal would ultimately keep the character grounding the massive success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This renewed fanbase has ensured that these early appearances remain top collectibles as fans speculate on Iron Man's return to the MCU.
Long considered one of the toughest of Marvel's first appearances to track down, this well-weathered but sturdy 3.0 copy from the PA Cole Collection should be just the thing for key collectors looking to complete their runs of first appearances without breaking the bank.
