Say it loud, say it proud! "Marvel Comics Group ushers in The Marvel Age of Comics!" Nearly two years since Fantastic Four #1, Marvel made this bold statement of purpose on the covers of its August comics. Unfortunately, the issues themselves were kind of duds, but wait 'til next month...
Note: We started out by titling these episodes with the cover date (the date that's printed on the cover), but we switched to their newsstand dates (the dates they went on sale) around episode #50. The newsstand date for this episode is May/June 1963.
Reading List: Fantastic Four #17, Journey Into Mystery #95, Strange Tales #111, Tales of Suspense #44, Tales to Astonish #46, ©1963 Marvel Comics.
