MARVEL MASTERWORKS: DOCTOR STRANGE VOL. 5
Written by STEVE ENGLEHART & FRANK BRUNNER with MIKE FRIEDRICH Penciled by FRANK BRUNNER & GENE COLAN Cover by FRANK BRUNNER
Entering the good Doctor Strange's world like a bolt from above, Steve Englehart and Frank Brunner teamed up to take the Master of the Mystic Arts to new heights of cosmic consciousness and other-dimensional adventure--and now you can experience it all in one amazing MARVEL MASTERWORKS edition! From the conclusion of the Shuma-Gorath saga and death of the Ancient One, to Stephen Strange's assumption of the mantle Sorcerer Supreme; from the time-lost Sise-Neg Genesis with Baron Mordo, to the classic Silver Dagger epic--these are Marvel comics at their very best! Brunner's art mixes a deliriously lush line with psychedelic stylings, while Englehart's scripting plumbs the depths of Strange's soul to create a strikingly personal epic that's just as challenging today as the first day it hit the racks. And with Gene Colan waiting in the wings for a massive Dormammu/Umar attack on Earth, there's no question what you have here is something special -- a true MARVEL MASTERWORKS! Collecting MARVEL PREMIERE #9-14 & DOCTOR STRANGE #1-9.
MARVEL MASTERWORKS: THE FANTASTIC FOUR VOL. 5 TPB
Written by STAN LEE Penciled by JACK KIRBY Cover by JACK KIRBY & DEAN WHITE
Stan The Man called it the World's Greatest Comic Magazine, and he wasn't kidding. If Lee and Kirby set the comics world on fire in 1961 with the debut of The Fantastic Four, in 1965 they burnt the house down. Letting loose an unmatched burst of rapid-fire creativity, they gave birth to the Frightful Four, the Inhumans, Galactus, the Silver Surfer and even pulled off the first super-hero wedding while they were at it, and all in just 11 issues. With incomparable embellishment by Joe Sinnott, guest-appearances by everyone in the Marvel Universe, there's no denying that this is the essential volume for any and every Marvel fan! 'Nuff Said!
