The cover
looks almost exactly like the cover of the first Marvel/ Timely comics that
started it all. This was actually the first book I read in this series, and the
only book I paid full price for the day it came out in 2009. Now that I think
about it, I think this issue came free with the purchase of 2 other Marvel 70th
books. So, I paid full price for them. But for some reason, I never reviewed this
book upon completing.
IT IS a reprint of Marvel Comics #1. The
stories are very good but the plotting is choppy and art is rough as most 1939
comics were in those days. However, upon reading other Marvel 70th
specials, most of the material in this book is also contained elsewhere. So, I
am glad I didn’t pay full price after all. There’s a second cover to this book
that has a more modern looking cover. But why would anyone want that one? I’ll
stick with my replica cover, thank you.
Worth
Consuming- but remember, most of this material is reprinted in other
anniversary specials.
Rating 9 out
of 10 stars.
