*Marvel: The Black Knight has a long and distinguished history at Marvel. Originally, a heroic knight at the court of King Arthur in the Atlas series of the 1950s, the name was revived in the Silver Age, first as the villainous foe of Giant-Man, and later as the new Black Knight (Dane Whitman) in the Avengers and elsewhere in the Marvel Universe (both US & UK). Shortly after Dane Whitman’s debut in Avengers, a Black Knight solo adventure appeared in the pages of Marvel Super-Heroes, which delved more into the origins of the character, written by Roy Thomas with moody and atmospheric pencils by Howard Purcell. Also in this giant volume, golden age reprints of the Human Torch, Sub-Mariner and the All-Winners Squad. This is a lovely clean copy with gloss and vibrant colours, an unmarked cover (albeit pence-stamped), solid firm squarebound spine, great staples and supple off-white pages. Just very minor spine, edge and handling wear, but a beautiful example.
