Astonishing Tails #11

I had trouble deciding which book to show off and I've been showing off plenty of DC which happens to be the minority of my collection, so I decided to jump back to a Marvel title. A few characters I like that have been around for as long as Marvel are the Sub-Mariner and Ka-Zar. Both characters, when written well are phenomenal. However, when written bad, they are horrendous. And most times I feel they aren't written well.

I started to collect Ka-Zar's series from the eighties. This also included the first appearance of Belesco from Uncanny X-Men #160 and the Magik limited series, of which I still need one more in a 9.8. I found the first silver age appearance of the Savage Land resident and when I found out he was in one of my birthday books I knew I had to make it one of my first.

It is a high grade for sure which could only be better with a press. Some minor defects can be fixed, but even with a professional press I fear it won't go above a 9.4 but, a 9.4 from 72' is nothing to be upset about.

Thanks for Reading
