| book description |

Explore the Stories Behind the Legends The team that defined a generationâ€”and reshaped a universe. The Avengers was the comic book of the 1970s. From Civil Rights to the Womenâ€™s Liberation Movement, battles for the soul of America became battles between super heroes. Writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby co-created the all-star group of six super heroes in September 1963. From there, just three main writers chronicled Earthâ€™s Mightiest Heroes in that most turbulent of decades: Roy Thomas, Steve Englehart, and Jim Shooter, each with differing approaches. The Avengers quickly became the pivot around which the Marvel Universe turned. To look back through its issues is to get a crash course in â€™70s pop culture. Illustrated with full-color art from this legendary run, Paul Cornellâ€™s entry in the MARVEL AGE OF COMICS series explores how the Mighty Avengers became icons during a time of immense change and upheaval. A must-have for new or longtime fans of Marvelâ€™s ultimate team, this richly illustrated book is also the perfect gift for the comic book reader in your life.
