*Marvel: Following his exploits in WW2, Nick Fury resurfaced in the 1960s in Strange Tales as secret agent, head of SHIELD, Marvel’s entry into the spy craze of the time. At the hands of Jim Steranko, renaissance man and consummate comics creator, the strip really tapped into the spirit of this 1960s spy phenomenon, rivalling Bond, UNCLE et al. By the time that Strange Tales ended and Nick got his own series in 1968, Steranko was coming to the end of his time on the series, but he contributed four wonderful stories and art jobs and seven iconic covers before he was through. The series lasted just a further eight issues (and three reprints) without him. We have almost all the series new in from #1, including all the Steranko work. One wonders just what he might have achieved had he decided to continue. For full details of our stock, see our catalogue listing.
