BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! Marvel Comics Presents #1 Wolverine Premiere Issue 1988
This is a vintage premiere issue of the Marvel Comics Presents anthology series, issue number 1, published by Marvel Comics with a cover date of early September 1988. The issue is significant for featuring the debut of the Save the Tiger Wolverine storyline by writer Chris Claremont and artist John Buscema. The cover art, which depicts Wolverine in a jungle setting, was created by John Buscema and Klaus Janson. This copy is a Direct Edition, indicated by the Silver Surfer graphic located in the bottom-left corner box typically reserved for a UPC barcode on newsstand copies. The cover includes the vertically aligned series title, a large stylized Wolverine logo, and a price box showing 1.25 US, 1.75 CAN, and UK 50p. The Approved by the Comics Code Authority seal is present on the lower left. The Marvel logo and 1988 Marvel Ent Group Inc. copyright notice are visible at the bottom.
