By early 1963 the foundations of the Marvel Universe had been laid.
Following the introduction of the Fantastic Four in 1961 came the
amazing (Spider-Man), the astonishing (Ant-Man), the strange
(Doctor, that is), the incredible (Hulk), the invincible (Iron Man)
and the mighty (Thor). Still, Marvel editor in chief Stan Lee
realized something was missing. "I was writing these characters and
I thought it would fun to put them together in a team," he
recalled. So Lee and artist Jack Kirby assembled Iron Man, Ant-Man
and the Wasp, Thor, and the Hulk to create the Avengers. Right away
it was clear this team was different. 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. The
lineup was ever changing: The Hulk departed, Captain America
joined, and Ant-Man grew up to become Giant-Man. Then, remarkably,
villains Hawkeye, Quicksilver, and the Scarlet Witch became
heroes-and Avengers-and the group's founding members shockingly
departed, leaving Captain America to lead the newly-minted heroes.
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 then been digitally
remastered using modern retouching techniques to correct problems
with the era's inexpensive, imperfect printing-as if hot off of a
world-class 1960s printing press. 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. This mighty collection about Earth's Mightiest
Heroes is worthy of Tony Stark's library-or yours. Also available
in a Collector's Edition of 1,000 numbered copies. (c) 2022 MARVEL
