American Update: Marvel Graphic Novels – New Mutants, Daredevil, X-Men, Emperor Doom
*Vintage Magazine-Sized Comics: A quartet of Marvel’s Graphic Novels, experiments into a new format for the House of Ideas in the early 1980’s – done-in-one comic stories in squarebound magazine-sized format and full colour, starring their top-of-the-line characters and creators. New Mutants (#4 in the series) introduced Sunspot, Wolfsbane, Cannonball and the whole ‘X-men in training’ concept, by Chris Claremont and Bob McLeod; X-Men – God Loves, Man Kills (#5) was a powerful anti-prejudice allegory by Claremont and Brent Anderson; Daredevil – Love and War (#24) was a stand-alone epic by the acclaimed team of Miller and Sienkiewicz: and David Michelinie and Bob Hall’s Emperor Doom (#27)asked the question; “What do the Avengers Do After Dr. Doom Wins?” The New Mutants, X-Men and Daredevil volumes have all gone into multiple printings, but these new additions are the first printings of each.
