ComicLink’s upcoming Spring Featured Auction has added a rare example of Loki’s debut in Journey Into Mystery #85 CGC 9.6.

“This is the finest example obtainable for the very first appearance of Thor’s evil half-brother and arch-nemesis Loki, a powerful and important Marvel villain, and the antagonist of the Thor and Avengers movies, as well as the lead character in his own successful streaming series,” ComicLink founder and Managing Director Josh Nathanson said. “Loki has been an integral player in many Marvel storylines, and was chosen by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby to play the villain in Avengers #1, in which he appears on the cover and is the subject of the first page title splash. This freak of nature example of Journey into Mystery #85 shares the throne with just three other examples as the top dog. It is the highest graded and one of only four, and with newsstand fresh White Pages it’s at the top of a very short list of 9.6s!”
