American Update: Marvel 1968 Bonus! Don’t Yield – Back SHIELD! First Fifteen Issues (almost) of Nick Fury’s Pals N’ Gals In Stock
*Marvel: When the distribution restrictions eased, and Marvel’s split books fissioned into solo series, Jim Steranko really cut loose with his kinetic, cinematic style, heavily influenced by the Op Art movement of the era, but founded on meticulous narrative principles, producing some epic work in his sadly short comic book career. Nowhere was this more evident than in his work on Nick Fury, Agent of SHIELD, where he combined the secret agent tropes popular in the day with his own visual flair, producing iconic works that still resonate decades later. We have the first fifteen issues of this series, (sans #13) in stock; Steranko sadly didn’t do all of the early issues – his attention to detail was deadline-unfriendly – but he was ably substituted by Frank Springer, an under-estimated artist who has seldom been better than when he was emulating Steranko’s approach. Issue #1 is VG+ p £25; details of the remainder may be found in our online catalogue. SORRY, ISSUES #1-3 NOW SOLD
