1st printing. By Blake Bell and Michael J. Vassallo. The Secret History of Marvel Comics digs back to the 1930s when Marvel Comics didn't just produce comic books but also published lurid and sensationalistic story books (known as "pulps") and magazines, featuring material not quite fit for children. The book features works by Marvel Comics artists such as Jack Kirby and Joe Simon, Alex Schomburg, Bill Everett, Al Jaffee, and Dan DeCarlo, plus the very best pulp artists in the field. These rare pieces of comic art, pulp and magazine history lift the veil on Marvel Comics' unseen history. Hardcover, 240 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $39.99.
