Why collectors want this issue

- Pre-hero Atlas monster book — from the title that became the home of Thor two years later in Journey into Mystery #83.

- Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko art in the same issue, two years before they created Marvel's superhero universe.

- Includes the much-loved short in which Ditko inks Kirby's pencils — a rare pairing collectors specifically seek out.

- Written by Stan Lee, in the science-fiction and fantasy mode Marvel used before the Fantastic Four.

- CGC 8.0 is a genuinely high grade for a 1960 Atlas anthology: these were low-print, high-attrition newsstand books.
