One of the most iconic silver age covers ever printed — and an absolute must for any Marvel key issue collection! Hawkeye is absolutely everywhere on this cover — and the cover practically announces it with pure silver age bravado. At the upper left: Hawkeye in full purple costume — mask on — drawing back a longbow with a yellow-tipped arrow aimed directly at the viewer — his body crouched low and coiled. At the right: a second Hawkeye — standing tall — another arrow nocked and flying. At the lower right: a third Hawkeye in a dynamic spinning pose — releasing yet another shot — quiver of arrows across his back. At the centre: Iron Man in his classic red and gold armour — surrounded by a spiked white starburst — hovering mid-air — one arm raised. A bright green speech balloon reads: “How can one man with a strange bow and arrow harm ol’ shell-head? Don’t try to answer till you’ve seen the sensational HAWKEYE→” A second callout at the lower right in a pink oval: “We think Hawkeye is so terrific, we plastered him all over our cover!!” And at the bottom: a teal teaser box — “Watch the sparks fly when handsome Hawkeye teams up with the BLACK WIDOW!” Unforgettable.

A cornerstone silver age Marvel key — the facsimile edition is a fantastic, affordable way to own this landmark first appearance. Great for Hawkeye fans, Iron Man collectors, Black Widow enthusiasts, and silver age Marvel completists. Light wear, good shape.
