Set Description:



Marvel Firsts. Marvel Bests? From the start of this set, Marvel gives team-ups and #1 issue starters to round out any new series. Even if they're not 1st appearances, you've got to love the passion and drive. Close to the end of the silver age is a good place to find yourself collecting and striving for perfection. When you collect them all, that means a job well done! The world over even, because these were innovating and character-building issues.

Nick Fury, Silver Surfer, Captain America, all good company for 1968! We've got the starters of something good, who knew? That the inevitable would last well into the next century, t-minus 50 years and counting!

1968 and a year before the Woodstock Festival, and they were preparing society norms by doing "character building", themselves, within comics! To break out on your own, back then and even today, meant to be established enough to be accounted worthy. That worthiness was only comparable to the bullpen and what was planned. Hatching ideas and working the craft of art, writing, plot point carrying of some major heroes, and it was all for the sake of the hits of the Silver Age! Those are the destined ages to start from, while building upon themselves in past, present, and future. The windmill has since tried to come around again to bring back some or all and even new heavy hitters, but the same needs to go as well in the office space of worktime thinkers and hatchers of a time and space like continuum. Hindsight seen as 20/20 and it seems agreeable to those who have collected that the rises and falls began early with great attending to and a careful curation.
