DESCRIPTION
Cream to Off-White pgs; Universal holder; Unrestored
Jack Kirby cover/art; 1st app/origin of Dr. Droom, later becomes Dr. Druid; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 7 (CBI)
Amazing Adventures #1 marks the first appearance of Dr. Droom — still remembered as the first superhero of Marvel's Silver Age! There's still much more to Droom's role as the cornerstone of what became a towering collection of characters. The mystic originally had a mere a four-issue run in Amazing Adventures. Shortly afterwards, though, Steve Ditko met with Stan Lee to pitch a magician named Mr. Strange. This issue's origin of Droom would ultimately serve as a prototype for what Lee and Ditko developed into Dr. Strange. Droom himself would famously get a Bronze Age retconning as Dr. Druid. Amazing Adventures, meanwhile, transformed into Amazing Adult Fantasy and then on to Amazing Fantasy justam in time for issue #15. By then, both the Silver Age and Marvel Age of Comics were taking off in the wake of this important and underrated collectible.
