Origins of Marvel Comics

Origins of Marvel Comics

Larry Lieber
4.2/5 ( ratings)
Marvel presents the origins and history of its most famous creations. Narrated by Stan Lee, that stellar storyman who saw comics as more than dime-store material and turned his characters into 20th-century mythology.
Included are the beginnings of The Fantastic Four, which hurled Marvel out of the area of monsters without soul into the age of cosmic heroes; The Hulk, brilliant scientist turned muddled monster; Spider-Man, the teenage superhero known affectionately to aficionados as "Spidey"; Thor, the surgeon turned Norse god with the mystical hammer and the Shakespearean speech pattern; and finally Dr. Strange, the oddball magician who uses his Satanic powers on the side of good.
After you read the big full-color stories and learn about the first heady inspirations from Stan, you will see why Origins of Marvel Comics stands alone as one of the great classics - an undying tribute to Marvel mania.
