DESCRIPTION
white pgs; Ext (A-5): ct, pcs added, tr seals, spine split sealed, cleaned, int. lightened, reinforced, staples cleaned; 2nd highest graded!
Origin & 1st app of Thor (Dr. Don Blake); Jack Kirby cover/art; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 10 (CBI)
Stan Lee found an outlet for his more grandiose stylings with the introduction of Norse god Thor as a proper superhero—with this issue also introducing readers to Dr. Don Blake, a humble human whose walking stick turns him into the legendary figure who turns back an alien invasion with his mighty hammer Mjölnir. Thor’s continuing appearances in Journey Into Mystery would eventually lead to his own title exploring the epic world of Asgard. This issue was always considered rare after an unusually low print run, and is reliable as a great investment. Fans of artist Jack Kirby even consider this issue to be a breakthrough for the legendary comics artist, offering pencils drawn with a surprising grace and elegance. The God of Thunder has remained one of Marvel’s biggest draws, with the character’s next MCU appearance already a source of great speculation.

This copy of Journey Into Mystery #83, first appearance of Thor, is a mind-bending 9.4 CGC Restored Grade with white pages. It hardly shows any wear from the last 60 years! It earned an Extensive (A-5) grade for its restoration, meaning that it was restored extensively, but excellently. This book presents so cleanly and beautifully. With Thor having appeared in countless MCU movies and more coming soon, as well as decades of comics and other merchandise, this is a key that will continue to excite collectors for generations to come!

Overstreet Guide 2021 NM- (9.2) value = $95,000.
