American Update: Comic Media #1, Omniverse #1 & #2 and More Rarities and Oddities
*Magazines/Books About Vintage US Comics: Some uncommon items added to this popular section: from 1970, Comic Media #1, the long-running British ‘zine which later became Comic Media News and developed into what was arguably Britain’s first ‘prozine’. From 1977, the first (and only?) two issues of Mark Gruenwald’s Omniverse, in which the later Marvel Editor-In-Chief pondered the parallel universes of the comics medium (he’d have a much harder job of it these days…) and from 1972, the Gloria Steinem edited hardcover retrospective of Wonder Woman, not only a feminist appreciation of the Amazing Amazon’s cultural significance, but also serving as the first significant collection of Golden Age Wonder Woman stories! All this, plus top-ups to our stocks of Alter Ego, Amazing Heroes, Comics Journal, Comic Book Marketplace and From The Tomb.
