Review: The Best Books About Comics - The American Comic Book Chronicles stretch from the 40’s to the 90’s and are all superbly put together. This volume is the 1950’s breaking down the decade year by year looking at significant events in comics history. The 50’s was the best and worst times for comics with the censorship being the death knell for many publishers including EC, the best comics ever published now and then. Even if you know your comics history you’ll find many surprises in here from the mighty Dell dominating the industry to the underhand tactics of many companies (looking at you DC/National and Archie) to drive the competition out of business. Highly Recommended-get the set (still waiting for 40’s Part Two).
Review: Absolutely love it and worth more than just five stars - Speedily delivered (and by its weight you can tell why books get charged £2.80 for delivery) and outstanding product. Absolutely love it and worth more than just five stars. This series gets better and better. Looking forward to the 90s version. Thank you.
