The Avengers #8 in context
Why collectors care
The first appearance of Kang the Conqueror, cover-dated September 1964. Kang became one of Marvel's most durable antagonists and the architect of its time-travel storytelling, with major film-franchise prominence.
How to identify it
Avengers #8, September 1964, by Lee and Kirby. The precise claim matters: the same character first appeared as Rama-Tut in Fantastic Four #19 (October 1963) and was reinvented as Kang here. So this is the first appearance AS KANG, not the character's first appearance.
Common mistakes
Both Fantastic Four #19 and Avengers #8 are marketed as "1st Kang." They are different books and different claims: FF #19 is the character's debut under a different identity, Avengers #8 is the Kang identity. Know which you are buying.
Grade considerations
A mid-60s Avengers issue with typical spine stress and cover-gloss limits. High-grade copies are scarce and carry a strong premium given the character's profile.
