    Marvel Age of Comics 1961-1978 HC (2020 Taschen) 40th Anniversary Edition 1-1ST


    (see more images)

    1st printing.

    By Roy Thomas.

    In The Marvel Age of Comics 1961-1978, legendary writer and editor Roy Thomas takes you to the heart of this seminal period in comic history - an age of triumphant character and narrative innovation that reinvented the super hero genre.

    With more than 500 images and insider insights, the book traces the birth of champions who were both epic in their powers and grounded in a world that readers recognized as close to their own; relatable heroes with the same problems, struggles, and shortcomings as everyone else. Behind it all, we get to know the extraordinary Marvel architects whose names are almost as familiar as the mortals (and immortals!) they brought to life-Stan "The Man" Lee, Jack "King" Kirby, and Steve Ditko, along with a roster of greats like John Romita, John Buscema, Marie Severin, Jim Steranko, and countless others.

    the result is a behind-the-scenes treasure trove and a jewel for any comic fan's library, brimming with the innovation and energy of an invincible era for Marvel and its heroes alike.

    Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 512 pages, full color.

    Volume 1 - 1st printing. Collects The Avengers (1963-1996 1st Series) #1-20.

    Written by Stan Lee, Larry Ivie [as Paul Laiken], and Larry Lieber. Art by Jack Kirby, Don Heck, Dick Ayers, Paul Reinman, George Roussos, Chic Stone, Vince Colletta, Mike Esposito (as Mickey Demeo), and Wally Wood. Cover by Jack Kirby and Dick Ayers. Foreword by Kevin Feige. Earth's Mightiest Heroes Introduction by Kurt Busiek.

    By early 1963 the foundations of the Marvel Age had been laid. Marvel editor in chief Stan Lee realized something was missing, so Lee and artist Jack Kirby assembled Iron Man, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Thor, and the Hulk to create the Avengers.

    If the Fantastic Four were family, then the Avengers were the co-workers you didn't choose. Not everyone got along-the Hulk fought with everyone-but working together they could defeat the baddest of Marvel's bad guys, like Loki, Kang the Conqueror, the Masters of Evil, and Immortus. Relive the classic early adventures of Avengers Nos. 1-20 in an XXL-sized edition that's bigger than the Hulk's fist, weightier than Thor's hammer, and with more extras than Iron Man's armor.

    TASCHEN has attempted to create an ideal representation of these books as they were produced at the time of publication. The most pristine pedigreed comics have been cracked open and photographed for reproduction in close collaboration with Marvel and the Certified Guaranty Company. Each page has been photographed as printed more than half a century ago, then digitally remastered using modern retouching techniques.

    Accompanying the stories are an original foreword by Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige and an in-depth history by the Eisner Award-winning writer Kurt Busiek that's illustrated with original art, little-seen photographs, and rare documents.

    Hardcover (with Box), 11-in. x 15-in., 640 pages, full color. All Ages
