Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko art; 1st app of the Ant-Man (Henry Pym) COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 9 (CBI)Heavily drawing upon the monster movies of the 1950s, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby brought Ant-Man into the Marvel Universe, with superhero scientist Henry Pym debuting in Tales to Astonish #27. This story even plays more like the sci-fi classic The Incredible Shrinking Man. Ant-Man wouldn’t acquire his iconic costume or proper origin until issue #35, but readers loved him all the same. This book has always been a favorite among collectors, but has recently seen an explosion in demand and value--due largely to Paul Rudd's work as Ant-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Even before Marvel's recent reinvention of Ant-Man, this was a secret key, not anymore -- this book has now exploded in demand and value, thanks both to its scarcity, and the sudden resurgence of interest in the character. Now is your chance to pick up this well-preserved VF+ copy of this classic issue, Ant-Man is one little superhero who just seems to keep getting bigger and bigger, both literally and in value.
Overstreet Guide 2022 VF+ (8.5) value = $24,500.
