Description

BUT THOUGH MY BODY MAY BE IMPRISONED, NONE CAN STOP MY MAGIC POWERS FROM ROAMING THE UNIVERSE IN SEARCH OF REVENGE!
- Loki

A page from the first appearance of The Avengers, this page Loki, Thor, Jane Foster, and The Hulk.


A key page in the formation of the Marvel Universe. This is the page where Loki forms his plan to trick Thor into fighting the Hulk. This event directly led to the formation of the Avengers. Here, Thor, in the form of Doctor Don Blake, is making his first appearance outside of the Journey to Mystery title, and the same is true for Loki. And the Hulk had been seen outside of his series just once before. We even get a cameo by Jane Foster who actually becomes Thor.

Signed by Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Dick Ayers.

Truly historic - the story reverberates even in today's comics ... and the love of the creators for these characters shows.

It was such a clever artistic idea to have those eerily floating eyes hovering over various scenes as we, the reader, got to follow Loki's thought processes as he formulated his mischievous plan.  Amazing page!!

Page 2 really gets right into it!  Loki's eyes are omnipresent as the evil force that unites the heroes!  Stan and Jack's major pillar in the house of ideas!

Ayers was an exceptional inker for Kirby, which is highlighted by the raw emotion captured in that sequence of eyes. Congratulations on acquiring such a historic and moody page.
