BTW Thor 281 - 282 , a nice little story and some of Pollards best work - lot of really cool backgrounds by him and Marcos especially in 281. Very tiny CGC population compared to other books recent MCU has made hot - probably due to apathy and 40 years of sitting in dealer's discount bins. Perhaps some are confusing Tempus with Gorr??

Loki tie-ins: - 1st Time Keepers. - Immortus/"He Who Remains" and 1st app of his Citadel due to such a low graded population I don't expect to see many slabbed sales to track for a while until subs start popping.

PeterPark Posted July 17, 2021 Author Share Posted July 17, 2021 2 hours ago, 35CentEra said: Agreed. At least unlike some of the recent nonsense, Thor 282 is a 42 year old book that first hit the stands in January 1979 (cover dated April 1979) with a low CGC graded population. Plus a great cover and interiors IMHO. And before the Loki show, the TVA was true esoterica; you could show you really know your stuff if you knew about it. Now, it is mainstream. And seeing what is in this issue, it makes complete sense to me for it to jump. We have seen books from all ages explode due to the MCU and this one is no different. The only surprise is what issue it is MAR1979 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see Pollard getting some love even though those most of those now seeking the issue have no idea who he is Edited July 19, 2021 by MAR1979 HouseofComics.Com, Readcomix, Microchip and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously hard to believe. It shouldn't be hard to believe at this point. This silliness started with Rocket Raccoon and Squirrel Girl and shows no sign of stopping. When characters like that get hot we shouldn't be surprised anymore when utter fringe characters suddenly pop.
