What becomes a legend most? This whompin' (six-pound) compendium of Marvel Comics, year-by-year, runs from its modest beginning in the Forties to the censorship movements of the Fifties and on through many twists and turns of style until reaching today's pre-eminence among American purveyors of comics. This coffee-table book, almost as bag as a real coffee table, has lots going for it but a few questions remain: why wasn't the cover a harder glaze, given that the book was meant to sell at twice today's going price? Was/Is Marvel really pick of the pack or just a top survivor? And how will the house function today, after the great Stan Lee's passing? You won't find those answers here, but you will find an onslaught of color art for more than half the 20th Century and part of the 21st. Recommended.
