Lot # 1475: 1962-1963 Marvel Journey Into Mystery (2) Issues with #87 CGC 1.8 & #88 Second Appearance of Loki CGC 3.0

Call down the thunder, and a little mischief too, when you take up the chase for this pair of vintage Journey Into Mystery comic books. Published by Marvel Comics in 1962 and 1963, these Silver Age treasures count as some of the earliest adventures for iconic super-hero The Mighty Thor. A founding member of Marvel's chart-topping team The Avengers, the Asgardian God of Thunder is joined here by his brother Loki, the trickster God of Mischief. These groundbreaking tales were created by Marvel gurus Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko and others, in early manifestations of the "Marvel Method", a production method that became a real game-changer in the comic book industry. Both issues have been encapsulated by CGC, with:
