Owner's Description

Pedigree: Northland

*Pedigree Background*
The Northland Collection consists of near complete set of Marvel Comics from 1961-1971. It was purchased, from the original owners, by Motor City Comics in June 1996. The collection was purchased off the newstand, read once, and then carefully stored for the past 35 years. According to the original owner; each comic selected was the best condition available at the time. Even the few comics that do not grade near mint are usually because of printing defects, such as Marvel Chipping.

All of the comics in this collection show exceptional cover gloss and near white to white page quality. Over 95% of the Northland Collection grades near mint or above: with many "newstand mint" examples.

Purchase History: From ComicLink

Rank: 2nd

Susan Richards suddenly faints, prompting the FF to look over her, however Thing leaves to go spent time with Alicia. Meanwhile, elsewhere the Psycho-Man punishes one of his subordinates for delivering a component to his device to Alicia's home, getting together his minions Shellshock, Ivan, and Live Wire to help recover the device.

At Alicia's home, Thing tries to figure out the strange component that was delivered to her apartment. Soon they are attacked by Psycho-Man and his minions who defeat Ben and take the component. Meanwhile, Black Panther leads an army to Panther Island where they briefly get into a battle against the Inhumans. Realizing that they have mutual allies and that Black Bolt brought the Inhumans because he sensed danger. Investigating, they come across the Psycho-Man's base and have to fight off his defenses.

Back on Panther Island, the Inhumans and Black Panther find themselves overwhelmed and so they have Lockjaw bring the Fantastic Four to the Psycho-Man's base to turn the tide. There they battle their way to Psycho-Man, who reveals to them that he comes from the Microverse and he intends to take over this world with a giant emoto-caster weapon. Being attacked by all the heroes, soon Psycho-Man is subdued, when Black Panther questions him they find the Psycho-Man is motionless, upon closer inspection what they thought was Psycho-Man, was really a robot body piloted by a small being.
