Well, it took me long enough but I finally finished volume two of my look at super-hero comics of the bronze age (1970 - 1982 approx.)
From the amazon page: "SUPERHEROIC: THE BRONZE AGE OF COMICS VOLUME TWO follows SUPERHUMAN: THE BRONZE AGE OF COMICS VOLUME ONE. This volume covers IRON MAN, GREEN LANTERN, CAPTAIN AMERICA, THE INCREDIBLE HULK, SUPERMAN and his supporting cast, FANTASTIC FOUR, DAREDEVIL, THE DEFENDERS, WORLD'S FINEST, SUPERMAN FAMILY, JACK KIRBY'S FOURTH WORLD series and many, many other titles and heroes, including characters published by ATLAS, RED CIRCLE/ARCHIE and others. Each chapter looks at the most memorable issues, writers, and artists, detailing how "relevance" and social issues began to affect the comics of the seventies even as most of them remained colorful fun. WILLIAM SCHOELL is the author of THE SILVER AGE OF COMICS, COMIC BOOK HEROES OF THE SCREEN, and many others books on popular culture."
The book has several black and white illustrations. Available from Amazon in kindle, trade paperback, and hardcover format.
Of course volume one SUPERHUMAN, revised and updated, is also available in kindle, trade paperback and hardcover formats.
So prolific!! Yay, Bill!
ReplyDeleteYes, I've been on a roll lately, finally finishing up different projects that I had been working on for years, maybe even decades. It's great to finally finish something!
