Marvel - The Mighty Thor #229 (1966) 1st Appearance of Dweller In Darkness

The Mighty Thor #229 - Published 6th August 1974

“Do mortals enjoy this life? Are they mad -- or are they accursed? Children cry for their mothers ... Men weep for dreams lost or abandoned...” - Hercules

Advert for Hulk #181, first appearance of Wolverine.

Both Thor and Hercules have returned to Earth, but while Thor flies overhead, Hercules hears a cry for help. He rushes to it, only to see an old man attacked by a robber. Hercules chases him down, only to return just in time to see the old man kill himself. A police detective tells Thor and Hercules about how several people have gone insane lately and killed themselves. Hercules storms off by himself, but is captured by a mysterious shadowy figure. He later manages to barely return to Thor, only to collapse in front of him.

6.5 Grade - The basic minimum for most collectors but depends on your budget! This is a comic with wear showing on the edges or stress around the staples. Still clean and flat with a small mark or cover writing but I do mean small. Pages may be yellowing slightly but no brown edges. Above average, read a few times and stored away with at least some concern. A staple may be detached but, if that' the case, the rest of the comic should appear Very Fine. For British comics, a little more wear on the spine and cover is permissible and there may be some corner curl evident. British comics are all shapes and sizes so corners and edges suffer more. Again, think that this is a comic that has clearly been looked after in its history.
