The last panel of Avengers #1, marked a difference for me and for the Comics Medium. Written by Stan "The Man" Lee, penciled by Jack Kirby, inked by Dick Ayers and lettered by Sam Rosen, this issue is a must for any good comic-book lover.
This is the moment where our heroes decide to band together and form a team, after their combined skills and powers had defeated Loki, the Asgardian god of Mischief. Founding members, as you can see here, were: The Astonishing Ant-Man, the Wondrous Wasp, the Mighty Thor, the Invincible Iron Man and the Incredible Hulk!
The green goliath would leave at the end of the second issue, after a "misunderstanding" involving the Space Phantom, never to come back to the team, but that's another story...

As I said, I will be sharing with you some of the Avengers' most classic moments over the years, and obviously this had to be the first one! Enjoy!

I'm pretty sure that when they created this panel, they didn´t imagine how iconic that would become!!
