1993 Comic Book Appraisal

Marvel Comics 'The Invaders' Comic Book, Issue #1 (1993)

This item is a single issue comic book titled 'The Invaders' from Marvel Comics, specifically issue number one, published in May. The cover prominently features a dynamic illustration of several classic Marvel superheroes in action, including Captain America, The Human Torch (original), Namor the Sub-Mariner, and what appears to be Miss America. The artwork is vibrant, showcasing a classic comic book style with bold lines and strong colors, indicating a superhero action genre. The main title 'THE INVADERS' is large and yellow with a blue outline, set against a star-spangled blue background at the top. Below this, text reads 'Back by Popular Demand!' and 'ALL NEW!'. A green speech bubble-like element highlights 'BLOCK-BUSTING ACTION WITH THE GREATEST SUPER HEROES OF WORLD WAR II' and 'Part One of Four', indicating a limited series. The comic is priced at $1.75 US and $2.15 CAN. In the bottom left corner, there's a special 'AVENGERS ASSEMBLY!' logo with 'A30' and '30 YEARS 1963-1993', suggesting it was published during a celebratory period for the Avengers. The artist's signature 'Dave Hoover' is visible near Captain America's right arm. The overall condition appears to be good for a vintage comic, with minor corner wear visible on the top right, and some slight bending or creasing along the spine, typical for handling and age. The colors remain bright and unfaded. It is a mass-produced item made of paper, likely featuring a glossy cover. This comic book appears to be from the early 1990s, specifically 1993, based on the 30-year anniversary mark, offering a nostalgic piece for collectors of Silver and Bronze Age-adjacent comics.
