Cover by AndWorld Design. Foreword by Chris Robinson. WINNER OF THE EISNER AWARD! The first comic ever created by African Americans, for African Americans. In the Golden Age of Comic Books, Orrin C.

Published around the time of household names like Superman, Batman, and Captain America—even pre-dating Black Panther—All-Negro Comics #1 should be among those revered moments in comic book history, but the original print run was quickly removed from newsstands and faded into obscurity…until now. This trade paperback reissues the Eisner Award-winning out-of-print hardcover All-Negro Comics 75th Anniversary Edition. This award-winning volume includes: All-Negro Comics #1, unabridged and digitally remastered for clarity. Consistent colors, crisp text, and no damage!
