Artist Ian Jepson provides a dazzling yellow cover design beautifully ravaged by Wolverine’s iconic clawmarks, while a gorgeous mosaic of panels by Marvel artist Julian Totino Tedesco adorns the endpapers and presentation box. Tedesco also provides an exclusive art print featuring a dynamic assembly of Bronze Age Super Heroes.
This collection also features our most ambitious facsimile comic yet: a whopping 68-page scale reproduction of Giant-Size X-Men #1. First published in 1975 and written by Wolverine co-creator Len Wein, this omnibus comic rebooted the mutant Super Heroes as the modern team made famous by the movies. This incredible collector’s piece has been painstakingly reproduced in its entirety from an original copy – including all original ads and the three extra X-Men stories collected in the original.
As Marvel’s fanbase matured in the 1970s, so too did the stories within the comics themselves. Collected here are the decade’s most shocking, most controversial tales. Spider-Man faces his best friend’s drug abuse and the death of the woman he loves. Iron Man battles alcoholism and Captain America finds himself defeated by Watergate-era disillusionment. Here you’ll also find the last major works by Marvel pioneers Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, bringing this three-era series to a fitting close. The Folio Society’s Marvel series is a truly monumental trilogy, a Hulk-sized retrospective teeming with creativity and imagination that has inspired the world.
