It would be impossible to overstate the importance of the early Silver Age to the comics universe(s). It was just before Peter Parker joined the ranks, just as Reed Richards and his team were about to be launched into space, and even before Bruce Banner was belted by gamma rays! Those creators were busy with Fin Fang Foom and Mechano and incredible stories of other worlds and outlandish creatures. Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko, Joe Sinnott, Don heck, Dick Ayers Ð they are all over these pages, the eleven issues of this historic comic title that fell into the public domain (#85-95; 1961-1962). You are there, right at the beginning Ð the best comic reading you will find!
