TwoMorrows Publishing presents Marvel Comics in the 1980s, the third volume in Pierre Comtois heralded series covering the pop culture phenomenon on an issuebyissue basis! This new book covers Marvels final historical phase, when the movement begun by Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko moved into a darker era that has yet to run its course. The 1980s saw Stan Lee's retreat to the West Coast, Jim Shooter's rise and fall as editorinchief, the twin triumphs of Frank Miller and John Byrne, the challenge of independent publishers, and the weakening hold of the Comics Code Authority that led to the company's creative downfall and ultimately the marginalization of the industry itself. Comics such as the Chris Claremont/John Byrne XMen, Frank Miller's Daredevil, the New Universe, Roger Stern's Avengers and SpiderMan, the new wave of dark heroes such as Wolverine and the Punisher, and more are all covered, in the analytic detail and often irreverent manner readers have come to expect from the previous 1960s and 1970s volumes. However, the 1980s represented years of upheaval in the comics industry with Marvel at the center of the storm so expect a bumpy ride in the 1980s decade that marked the beginning of the end of Marvel Comics as you knew them!
