Why It Matters

The launch of Jessica Drew’s first solo series introduces her new costume and revisits her origin. In A Future Uncertain!, she tries to establish a life after her involvement with Hydra, with her childhood and the High Evolutionary central to her history. Joe Sinnott’s cover makes this a distinctive opening issue for a Bronze Age Marvel collection. Jessica Drew’s first appearance was earlier, in Marvel Spotlight #32; this issue is her solo-series debut.

Collector Notes

This is the original 1978 printing, rather than a later facsimile or reprint. It is a Bronze Age comic, not a pre-Code issue. Sold raw/ungraded: 8.5 VF+ is the seller’s visual estimate. Grading is subjective and no professional or CGC grade is guaranteed. Please inspect all five photographs of the actual copy, which form part of the description. The supplied front-cover photograph has visible image distortion near its edges; this is not being represented as a printing-error feature.
