Where can I find the original Iron Man comic?

Question

I'm collecting all of the original comic books from the most known superheros...I was wondering where I could find the one for Iron Man? Like a website that sells it or a store? and when I say the original I mean THE ONE THAT TELLS THE STORY OF HIS ORIGIN...like why he became Iron Man and all that! 10 points to a website!

Answer 1

It's your funeral, because you want "Tales of Suspense" #39, which was published in 1963 and which will be quite expensive to buy. I recommend buying a reprint of that story since a reprint would be much cheaper and Shell Head's first appearance and origin (which are the same story, since Iron Man is one of the many heroes who's first appearance also contains his origin) has been reprinted several times. You don't give me the impression that you are someone who knows much about comics and you may not realise how much it would cost you to buy the issues you want, but that's your business and I've included a link to Mile High Comics who are reliable and honest, although not inexpensive.

Search for a copy of "Tales of Suspense" #39 and don't be shocked if you think the copies they have are overpriced. Chances are you won't find any cheaper copies.
