But when moments are available, you can, and should, escape.
Over the summer, I was able to find the first and second appearances of Black Panther:
Leader of a technologically advanced nation somewhere in Africa, the Black Panther kidnaps the FF and pits himself in battle against them so that he may challenge himself against a worthy foe. But they band together, like most heroes do, against a common foe: the Klaw! I believe the Black Panther Party actually took their name from these pages soon afterward. I think Jack Kirby and Stan Lee should have taken their story of the noble warrior a step further and had him involved in a romantic triangle with Susan Richards and Reed Richards, but perhaps America wouldn't have been quite ready for an interracial arrangement. After all, we were only getting over Susan Richards' crush on Namor, the Sub-Mariner, a creature of an entirely different race, the Atlanteans, even if he was half-human...
Last Month, at the NY Comic Con, I stumbled upon this issue which contained the first appearance of Sabrina, the Teenage Witch. Since Pep Comics #22, the first appearance of Archie, was several thousand dollars more expensive, I figured five dollars was a safe buy:
First appearance of Firestar in comic form, and apparently, before the cartoon even aired as well. Yes, I really liked Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends. Especially when the X-Men made an appearance!
Well, I wish you all well and happy hunting!
