Adventures of the Jaguar #1

From Archie's Adventure Series comes the very first issue of Adventures of the Jaguar, hitting newsstands in September 1961 for just a dime. John Rosenberger's cover sets the tone perfectly: the orange-costumed Jaguar squares off against a massive, fang-baring serpent amid ancient Inca stonework, his fist raised in fierce defiance as the great coiled beast looms over him. It's a thrilling introduction to this superhero's world, with Rosenberger's bold linework and the story title "Menace of the Inca Serpent!" promising adventure steeped in exotic mythology.
