Interesting topic, Shax. Btw in your OP, you mean the Vision, right, and not Ultron?  Oops. Thanks! |

National and All-American get together to give us the Justice Society of America in All-Star Comics #3.

I don't know if this specific moment changed the course of comicdom, but it was certainly awesome. |

When the King, of his own volition, added "some nut on a surfboard" to FF #48.

For me, there were a few "moments" that made me nearly drop the comic, so unexpected were they. Here are those moments that did indeed have great ramifications and impact. Bullseye Killing Elektra - whoa.  But the realization that Swamp Thing was NOTHING human at all...  The Great Darkness Saga had Darkseid go from being Jack Kirby's weird dark god to a major DCU meta villain - his powers beggar belief [thought you might like that type of lingo, bunky]. He creates a BILLION "supermen" by transposing Daxam from its red sun system to a yellow sun system. That act alone made us all go nuts. One of the greatest and most epic stories, but that alone set the path for him to be the biggest threat in the DCU for the next 30 years. [IMHO].   More to come! |

Two Events in Marvel History that I consider a Great MomentsCaptain America #1 - Steve Rogers becomes Captain America   That Experiment changes the life of one Steve Rogers forever. Journey Into Mystery #83 - Donald Blake become Thor   The change from a feeble Dr. Donald Blake when he holds the ancient cane he was transformed into Thor the God of Thunder.

All great entries for sure. The Dark Phoenix Saga was a great moment:  As was the appearance of a new costume:  |

 In 1941, Captain Marvel, as portrayed by Tom Tyler in the Republic serial "Adventures of Captain Marvel," becomes the first comic book superhero to be depicted in live-action film, a practice that generates modest interest among a handful of hardcore fans to this day.  |

New salesman Max Gaines, working for Eastern Color Press, trying to figure out a new angle to keep the presses running, approaches his boss after reading some old funny papers, about collecting them, reprinting them on a full sheet, folding it a few times into a booklet, and using it as a free incentive to get people to buy Proctor & Gamble products. The project ran between other print runs of newspapers and was sent through the mail to consumers who clipped their P&G coupons and sent them in. It was one of the first comic books ever and helped to launch the comic book we know and love. |

 This sequence still gets me every time I read it. It was an absolutely brilliant way to enhance and crystallize Spider-Man's characterization. I also think, in terms of the 1960's, this was a "next level" scene. Scenes this dramatic and emotional rarely if ever happened in mainstream comics before this. |
