Description
I've been tending much more towards modern art these days, but a few years back I got on a vintage 1st appearance craze, and this beautiful page caught my eye.

Yeah sure, Moondragon appears on like eight pages before this one, but still, it's her first appearance issue. Plus you get some Iron Man and Subby on this page as well, so I'm very happy with it.

I find it funny that she was originally named Madame MacEvil. I wonder if she liked dining at MacDonalds and if she used a Macintosh computer when the first one came out in 1984. I can't help but think of the Blood, Sweat & Tears song "Lucrecia Mac Evil." Love that band. But I digress!

Thanks for looking!

For some reason, Madame MacEvil reminded me of McDowell's Restaurant, home of The Big Mick.  Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions, BUT, their bun HAS no seeds!

Anyway, I didn't realize Moondragon was called Madame MacEvil, either.  This is a great action page.  The underwater shots of Iron Man are excellent!

Please tell me her Hawaiin driver's license just reads MacEvil. This is a good pickup. A 1st app is a 1st app.

Dammit! I was going to make a couple of McDonald's puns but you used them up already and now I got nothing! Okay, I guess I'll just be serious and say how cool it is that you get a fun page deaturing Iron Man vs Submariner, AND a bonus 1st appearance of Moondragon!

You're good.  We were punning on McDowell's Restaurant.  Totally different franchise.  People make that mistake all the time...

I wonder if they were fan casting Persis Khambatta for Moon Dragon after Star Trek the Movie?  With Tuska, Everett, and Colletta we can see their strengths all over this page.  Everett has got to be bringing that underwater action while Tuska's Iron Man armor shows so much life!  All with Vinnie's inks that take great care!

I know it's listed, but I wouldn't have pegged this as Vinnie's inks.  Much richer and heavier than I'm used to seeing.  I really like it.

He knew that Everett's work deserves the extra care.

With her original silly name or not, this definitely counts as a historic first app. Congrats! Iron Man vs. Namor battles are always pretty special too, so you grabbed an absolutely fabulous page there, Paul.

This is the kind of page you want!  Has a bit of everything.  I bought this issue when it came out, but had forgotten 'Madame MacEvil'. LOL

Almost any page that features Iron Man and Subby battling is an epic start, and this one is a great one from the era! AND you get Moondragon in her first appearance issue, yea I'd say that's a banger! awesome page, congrats Paul!

Adding a 1st appearance page is really something to be happy about.  I don't really care if it was the eighth time in that issue  The only thing better would be the actual page she makes the 1st appearance on.  Congrats!!!

Tuska's dynamic composition is greatly enhanced by Everett's powerful and subtle inks!
