American Update: Monsters & Heroes – Early Magazine by US Fandom Founder Larry Ivie
*Vintage Magazine-Sized Comics: In 1967, Larry Ivie had already been active in US comics fandom for several years, and decided to launch his own magazine, on higher-quality paper than the mimeoed or dittoed collations which were the norm. Monsters & Heroes had black & white interiors and full-colour covers, and, while focusing primarily on movie and occasional TV-related material, did also touch on comics, especially those which had been adapted into other media. Each issue also featured Ivie’s own art, illustrating various articles but also in large instalments of his Mac Raboy-influenced comic strip Altron-Boy. A curious hybrid of fanzine and early independent comic, we have what we believe to be the full run, 7 issues, of Monsters & Heroes in stock.
