Jack Kirby and Dick Ayers Avengers #16 Page 18 Original Art (Marvel, 1965). The new Avengers lineup was announced on this very page! Group shakeups were just about unheard-of back then, so this was a significant moment in comics history. Iron Man does the announcing, Captain America and Rick Jones are outraged, and we even get to hear the thoughts of villains the Enchantress, the Executioner, the Mole Man, Immortus, and Kang (hey, aren't Kang and Immortus the same guy? But we digress). Kirby did the breakdowns, and Ayers did the finished art and inks. Luckily the top margin was not trimmed closely so we get to see Kirby's extensive penciled notes to Stan Lee. Ink over graphite on Bristol board with an image area of 12.5" x 18.75". Slight corner creases. Excellent condition.
