Classic tales of boundless imagination from the Marvel Multiverse!
Classic stories reimagined in wild and wonderful ways by legendary creators!
Imagine...what if Gwen Stacy had lived? What if Captain America was elected president? What if Phoenix had not died? What if Wolverine had killed the Hulk? What if there were no Fantastic Four? What if Bullseye had not killed Elektra? What if the Avengers were the last super heroes on Earth? And perhaps most startlingly of all, what if Dazzler became the herald of Galactus?! Plus, years before the Clone Saga rocked Peter Parker's world, what if Spider-Man's clone had survived?
And yet more trips into the infinite possibilities of the Multiverse featuring Thor, Man-Thing, Ghost Rider, Iron Man - and Matt Murdock, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.!
Plus: The hidden history of the Eternals...and a classic all-comedy issue exploring the wildest What Ifs of all!

1st printing. By Mark Voger. Holy phenomenon! In the way-out year of 1966, the action comedy Batman starring Adam West premiered and triggered a tsunami of super swag, including toys, games, Halloween costumes, puppets, action figures, and lunch boxes. Meanwhile, still more costumed avengers sprang forth on TV (The Green Hornet, Ultraman), in movies (The Wild World of Batwoman, Rat Pfink and Boo Boo), and in animation ("Space Ghost," "The Marvel Super Heroes"). Zowie! traces the history of the superhero genre from early films, through the 1960s TV superhero craze, and its pop culture influence ever since. This history, in pop art colors that conjure the period, spotlights the coolest collectibles and kookiest knockoffs every '60s kid begged their parents for, and features interviews with the TV stars (West, Burt Ward, Yvonne Craig, Frank Gorshin, Burgess Meredith, Cesar Romero, Julie Newmar, Van Williams), the artists behind the comics (Jerry Robinson, Dick Sprang, Carmine Infantino, Joe Giella), and others. Hardcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 192 pages, full color. Cover price $43.95.
