Throwback Thursday

It’s been a few weeks since the last Throwback Thursday, which I apologize for. Been busy juggling work, school for kids, crap to do around the house and just quite frankly, trying to find any motivation at all is exhausting.

This week I’m heading back to April of 1972..  where Marvel kicked off a new title and the creators Roy Thomas and Gil Kane revamped a relatively unknown character into someone we, the comic book world, all know today…..

As Adam Warlock, a sort of messiah into the Marvel Universe in Marvel Premiere #1.

Now, this isn’t his first true appearance, only his first as Adam Warlock. Prior to this issue, he was Him and made his first appearances in Fantastic Four #66 which was just an origin, he actually does not appear at all until Fantastic Four #67.

It’s only a matter of time before Warlock makes it into the MCU. We already got a teaser at the end of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 that he’s likely coming. According to Gunn, he scrapped his appearance in that release cause the thought there was already too many characters to go around, saving him for a future release. We gonna see him appear in the next installment? Are you ready if he does?

These books are all key books and still pretty affordable I think, at least in the reach of most collectors budgets.

Who has these in their collections? Who’s been eyeballing them for theirs? What’s your favorite Warlock story or comic? Tell us in the comments or fire up a conversation in the forums if you dare.
