Description

Tony Stark lies unconscious at the feet of the villainous...Iron Man? WTF? A tantalizing 1969 Silver Age Iron Man cover from the titanically talented George Tuska. I've always admired the way Marvel covers tease you with unanswered questions that practically force you to buy the issue.

Cover feels like it took a page from Curt Swan with all those clark/superman covers and stories. Absolutely love this era of Iron Man. Congrats.

Very nIce cover of a cool 60s ands later trope that would plague Tony Stark several times over the years--man vs machine!

Such memories! Silver and early bronze IM's were the books I chased as a kid.

Anyone in this hobby knows how difficult it is to find top-of-the-line vintage Iron Man covers, and this one is OUTSTANDING.  Major congrats on this incredible grab.

As a huge Iron Man fan with the first 350 issues, I can honestly say, thus Is one of the very best covers of all time! Whenever I'm looking through back issues, this one always stops me in my tracks. Truly, amazing.

Classic. Tuska did some great IM covers...wish he would have done more of them vs. being handed off to Kane and others...no offense to Kane...

I remember pulling this out of the back issue box at the only LCS that existed near me when I was a kid and my reaction was the same! Great stuff!

The very definition of a great cover. It begs the reader to buy it to see what happens.

Jared took the words right out of my mouth.  If you were a kid back in those days standing at the spinner rack looking for what to buy, a cover like this is always going to jump out and grab you by the throat.  As a comic art collector, that feeling must be intensified a thousand fold.  About as fine an Iron Man example as one could hope for.  Wow!  Congrats and stay safe my friend.

Tuska's cover designs and layouts were always under appreciated.  I'm glad he is finally getting some recognition.  Truly, a fantastic cover.

Outstanding cover from the scintillating '60's!  Perfect artist and hero combo.  Even standing still, Tuska's Iron Man pulses with power.

Iron Man and Tony Stark on the same vintage cover - pretty cool - and Iron Man is one of the characters that felt positive MCU demand!

Tuska is one of THE Iron Man artists.  Not all his panels are perfect, but Iron Man's depiction is always powerful and impressive.  This is an amazing example!
