COMPLETE HISTORY OF AMERICAN COMIC BOOKS HC (C: 0-1-2)
by Shirrel Rhoades This updated history of the American comic book follows the development of comics from the first appearance of the comic book format in the Platinum Age of the 1930s to the creation of the superhero genre in the Golden Age, to the current period, where comics flourish as graphic novels and blockbuster movies. Along the way you will meet the hustlers, hucksters, hacks, and visionaries who made the American comic book what it is today, as well as a host of mutants, changelings, atomized scientists, gamma-ray accidents, and supernaturally empowered heroes and villains who challenge the imagination and spark the secret identities lurking within us. Includes an Afterword by Steve Geppi.
