Description

Mischief comes a calling, with this 10/62 Marvel Journey Into Mystery #85 issue. The headline is "the first appearance of Loki, the cunning trickster god of mischief", but this is really a "hail, hail the gang's all here" situation. Also making their debuts in this high impact Silver Age key issue, are Odin, Heimdall, and the realm of Asgard itself. This classic comic also marks the third appearance of lead character, The Mighty Thor, whose first appearance issue Journey Into Mystery #83 is also on offer in this current auction. A dream team of creators pitched in to make this issue the treasure it is, including Stan "The Man" Lee, his brother Larry Lieber, Jack "The King" Kirby, Don Heck, and Steve Ditko, who are all legends of the super-hero genre. CGC has encapsulated this greatly prized comic book, with a grade of 2.0, Cream to Off-White Pages. Label notes are "Stan Lee and Larry Lieber stories, Jack Kirby, Don Heck and Steve Ditko art, Jack Kirby and Dick Ayers cover. 3rd appearance of Thor. 1st appearance of Loki, Heimdall, Asgard and Odin (cameo).".
