Description

I've been looking for a nice example from the early Avengers run with Jack's pencils. This page comes from Issue #5, the month after the reintroduction of Captain America into the Silver Age. No one has seen (or admitted to having seen) the original artwork to Issue #4, so this issue is really what is out there in terms of Original Art.

This issue, "The Invasion of the Lava Men," has the full team in action and helping each other out - thus the need for the team-up.

This page is neat in that it's the first time in the Silver Age that we see Cap's throw his shield and have it come back to him "as if it had a life of it's own!!"

The volume Kirby was putting out in the early days of Marvel was astounding. The inkers were working fast just to keep up. In fact, there were four inkers involved in the first six issues of the book.

Thrilled to add this small piece of history to my collection.
