1970 STERANKO HISTORY OF COMICS, Vol 1, Orig Envelope! - eBay (item 310034460606 end time Mar-29-08 19:23:32 PDT) This Steranko History of Comics, Vol. 1 was self-published by Jim Steranko's SuperGraphics company in 1970. It outlines the development of early adventure strips and pulp magazines and shows how those influences led to the creation of the first comic book heroes. It includes sections on Superman, Batman, Captain America, Human Torch, Submariner and The Justice Society.
The photos show Submariner by Bill Everett, Batman by Bob Kane, Captain America by Jack Kirby, and The Justice Society of America by Joe Kubert. The Buck Rogers art was a painting by Frank R. Paul instead of the comic artist Dick Calkins.
The softcover book measures 10 1/2 inches by 14 inches with 84 black and white pages. The front and back full-color covers are an amazing montage of early adventure characters drawn by Jim Steranko.
It comes with the original mailing envelope which is beautifully designed by Steranko.

Old Marvel STRANGE TALES #163 Nick Fury by Jim Steranko - eBay (item 310030930512 end time Mar-17-08 17:58:47 PDT)Strange Tales #163 features Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Doctor Strange. Front cover art by Steranko. This is an unread copy that's been in our collection since it came out. This Marvel issue in near mint condition is listed at $60.00.
Agent of SHIELD art is by Jim Steranko. Doctor Strange art is by Dan Adkins. This issue also features fifties villain The Yellow Claw fighting Nick Fury.
This copy has great cover gloss, square corners and almost no visible stress marks at spine. The age darkening is very minor, mostly at the cover edge. There's a small impression mark (from sorting machine?) on Yellow Claw's gun.
In the first picture makes it appears there are white lines along the top edge of the front cover. We took a photo close-up that better shows the white line is very minor. You have to look close in real life to see it at all.
We try to grade fairly and feel this should be graded at near mint. We're listing it at a conservative starting price considering its condition--a really wonderful, crisp copy for your collection.
