If you're curious about the origin of Thor, it happened in an until-then obscure title called Journey into Mystery.

Before the superheroes took over, Marvel was producing a lot of 'movie monster' type stuff. Some examples: GROGG, CLAGG, FIN FANG FOOM.

The creation of the Fantastic Four saw the beginning of the Marvel Age of comics, but there was still some way to go before everything became heroic.

The crossover came with Incredible Hulk #1, and the roots of that story are easy to spot in this origin, with Dr. Donald Blake accidentally stumbling upon the hammer of Thor -- disguised as an old walking stick!

How to Identify a Golden Record Reprint

It can be easy to get excited when you see a Golden Record reprint of the mega Marvel keys from the early 1960s. Even I have been fooled a couple of times!

The main way to identify the GRRs:

• They have NO PRICE on the front cover!
• They are thinner, because they don't have ad pages inside
• The back cover is different

The big giveaway is the lack of a price box. It's an easy one to overlook when you see a high-grade key issue and your pulse begins to race... See images below.

The four titles reprinted by GRR were FF #1, Avengers #4, Journey into Mystery #83, and Amazing Spider-Man #1.

The reprinted comics had slightly different covers, along with an LP record of the story.

While the Golden Record reprints are worth a fraction of the originals, they are still collectible -- especially since for many collectors, the original issues are well beyond their budget.

Mint condition Golden Record comics are now highly sought-after. They are often found in great shape, because the record protected the comic book from damage over the years.

Two more huge Thor Marvel comics!

The second appearance of any major superhero is always sought-after. JIM #84 is hard to find in high grade, due to its chocolate brown cover which shows wear.

Loki is one of the most important of all the Thor villains, and his first appearance is a valuable find in any shape. Arguably this issue is the second-most important in all the history of Thor Marvel comics.
