Description

The last page of Iron Man #55 shows that it was a Thanos-Robot all along in the issue. I posted a picture of that page (see 2nd image).
This Birth page I have is the very first time the real Thanos is speaking. He even references his "robotic emissaries findings".

Overstreet Price guide even states that Captain Marvel #27 is the first full appearance of Thanos.

Cool page and you can see Starlin's Gil Kane influence so strongly on this page.

As a huge Starlin enthusiast, I have to correct you. Thanos' first real and exposed appearance was in Captain Marvel 26, not Captain Marvel 27. That splash page from CM 26 sold last year on ComicLink after staying in a Starlin collector's (Rick Loshiavo) collection for the better part of 18 years that is now unwinding through ComicLink auctions. Regardless, your CM 25 page is the first true tease of the real Thanos.
