About the book

This two-volume collection celebrates Marvel's earliest era, when the company operated under its predecessor names and helped establish the American superhero comic. Characters such as the Human Torch, Namor the Sub-Mariner and Captain America emerged during this formative period. The collection captures the energy, patriotic themes and imaginative storytelling of comic books before and during the Second World War.
