This is obviously not the first appearance or even SA appearance of Captain America but, given his importance to the Avengers, I've included this key issue as part of the set.

Monica Rambeau was my Captain Marvel since Carol Danvers had somewhat disappeared from Avengers continuity during the 80's in a haze of weird stories. I never loved this Captain Marvel's costume - seriously how would you ever keep a white costume clean? - the new Captain Marvel was one of my favorite Avengers characters from that era of the run and a worthy leader of the Avengers.
Her first appearance here spirts an awesome cover by the father and son duo of John Romita and John Romita Jr!

Astonishing Tales 6 Signature

There are other first appearances that are more valuable and, perhaps, desirable but this is one of my favorite books in the collection.
Astonishing Tales 6 has the 1st appearance of Barbara Morse AKA Mockingbird. Dr Morse makes a somewhat muted 1st appearance here, showing up at Ka-Zar's mansion and looking for him. It would turn out she was working for SHIELD and looking for Ka-Zar to assist her with dealing with the Man Thing. Later in the series she is revealed to be Agent 19 at SHIELD and becomes Ka-Zar's girlfriend before being replaced by Shanna the She-Devil. The character would be reintroduced in Marvel Super Action 1 as the "Huntress" but, after the title was canceled after a single issue and DC introduced their own Huntress in the late 70's, Dr. Morse disappeared again until showing up, as Mockingbird, in Marvel Team-Up 95.
Mockingbird was a mainstay of the Avengers and Avengers West Coast when I begin reading those titles in the 80's so getting her first appearance here is one of my favorite gets in the collection. In addition to being a difficult book to obtain in high grade, this one is singed by Stan Lee and has a Bowling Green pedigree making it a one of kind! To top it all off we've got a great cover w Dr. Doom and Black Panther along with Ka-Zar. This book is one of my favorites in this collection for sure.
