Suspense Iron man

Iron Man is one of the biggest comic book characters of the Silver Age 

It will be sold in Heritage Auctions’ November 16-18 Comics and Comic Art sale in Beverly Hills.

As the origin issue for one of the biggest Silver Age characters, the comic is in enormous demand.

Another CGC 9.6 copy made a massive $375,000 in 2012. This one is almost certainly going to exceed that by a big margin.
