Avengers #4 is the first appearance of
Captain America in the Silver Age, with this classic comic also becoming a vital cornerstone of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Of course, the comic collectors of 1964 knew it was a major event when Stan Lee and
Jack Kirby brought Captain America back from the 1940s. Kirby’s amazingly iconic artwork (and a guest turn by the
Sub-Mariner) only made it more obvious to early investors that this was a book for the ages. The continuing cinematic success of Captain America’s story keeps this classic issue looking like a vital investment—with the character even more popular now than during his WWII heyday!
__________________________________________________
With only two copies of this book grading higher on the census, this example of Avengers #4 is a real doozy. Not only are the corners razor sharp, the colors are bright as the day they were printed, the spine is rigid, there is not much more to say about how wonderful this book looks, except, for the fact that it was signed by the one and only Stan Lee! This signature series PGX-certified copy is sure to get bidders' salivary glands working overtime as they compete to land this Silver Age milestone, which features the First Avenger so prominently at front and center.
