So what exactly is the first appearance of an infinity gem? Marvel Premiere 1?

 

Well, it's the first appearance of the Soul Jewel/Gem(s), which was later retconned into the Infinity Gem(s).

 

Now, theoretically, from a greasy fanboy POV, the first appearance *could* be The Stranger's first appearance, but that's all 20-20 retconned hindsight. MP 1 is the actual first time it was mentioned and introduced to the MU.

Seems like all of Marvel's phase 3 movies are going to be about gathering these gems.

 

Well, if you are looking for the soul gems don't forget his other powerful weapons; like the Thanos Copter :grin:

I just looked this up to see if it had any recent jump because it appeared in the Deadpool death issue. That is a pricey book, never realized.

lol Clearly the writer had a firm grasp of the subject matter. meh But why is no one talking about the 1st appearance of Speedy the Skateboard Super-Hero! This issue has Squirrel Girl potential! :ohnoez:

When I saw the Thanos copter in the last issue of Deadpool I almost fell out of my chair. That Spidey Super Stories is a MUST have for any Thanos collection, been trying to upgrade my copy for a while

Why do you find high-grade books objectionable in a forum about comic books?

 

He's just making a bad joke in the vein of "Oh, so you're butthurt by softcore porn and objectionable images in Sigs? Well I'm gonna be butthurt over high-grade comics. Naaaahhh!".

The first mention of "6 Infinity Gems" is Marvel Team-Up 55. I believe I posted the exact panel maybe 6 months ago in this thread.

 

I'm not sure where the first individual gem is mentioned but MP 1 is probably as good a guess as any.
