| Marvel, 2/1983 | 1st Appearances of Donkey Kong and Mario; Video game magazine in comic-book format #21 in this year's Top 100. Angelo notes: In my opinion, a book that is investment-worthy with more upside potential. Ben notes: Something that really strikes me about the Blip series is that it is the only instance I am aware of among CPVs where there exist both dual-price newsstand copies *and* single-price newsstand copies (the CPVs) (here's pictures of what I mean). CGC label note: Matthew Laborteaux photo cover. 1st comic book appearance of Mario & Donkey Kong. |
