Condition: Nuevo. Witness the creation of the world?s favorite web-slinger as dreamed up by comic book legends Stan Lee and Steve Ditko, who redefined what it meant to be a hero. The first 21 Spider-Man stories are collected in an intimate view of the teen hero?s origin story and early exploits alongside original essays and rare artwork and ephemera. Birth of a Legend The origins of the teenager who broke the super hero mold When Stan Lee first pitched the idea of Spider-Man in 1962, his boss was full of objections: People hate spiders. Teenagers aren?t lead characters; they?re sidekicks. He should be glamorous and successful, not a friendless loser. But Stan persisted and Martin Goodman let him give the unlikely hero a tryout in Amazing Fantasy, which was already slated for cancellation. With Spider-Man on the cover, No. 15 shot to the top of Marvel?s best-seller list for the year, and the rest is history. Amazing Spider-Man, which debuted seven months later, broke the comics mold. Peter Parker lived in uncool Queens, was always broke, continually worried about his Aunt May, was unlucky in love, and was constantly getting yelled at by his boss, Daily Bugle publisher J. Jonah Jameson. Spider-Man had the quips and confidence that Parker lacked, but learning to use his powers wasn?t always easy. He often seemed on the verge of defeat against the rogue?s gallery of classic foes that debuted in the first couple of years: Vulture, Doctor Octopus, Sandman, Lizard, Electro, Kraven the Hunter, Mysterio, and the Green Goblin. Much of the credit for Spider-Man?s greatness goes to cocreator and artist Steve Ditko, who had a knack for portraying teenagers and their problems. His artwork infused Spider-Man with a loose-limbed energy, and, while maybe everyone was scared of spiders, Ditko made swinging through New York seem like the coolest adventure ever. First available as an XXL-sized collector?s dream, close in size to the original artworks, this compact edition features the first 21 stories of the world?s favorite web slinger from 1962?1964. Rather than recolor the original artwork (as has been done in previous decades? reprints of classic comics), TASCHEN has attempted to create an ideal representation of these books as they were produced at the time of publication. The most pristine pedigreed comics have been cracked open and photographed for reproduction in close collaboration with Marvel and the Certified Guaranty Company. Each page has been photographed as printed more than half a century ago, then digitally remastered using modern retouching techniques to correct problems with the era?s inexpensive, imperfect printing?as if hot off a world-class 1960s printing press. With an in-depth historical essay by Marvel editor Ralph Macchio, an introduction by uber-collector David Mandel, and original art, rare photographs, and other gems, this robust collection of wall-crawling wonder will make anyone?s spider-sense tingle with anticipation. Ditko, Steve; Lee, Stan (illustrator).…

Cartoné. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. Cuando Stan Lee lanzó la idea de Spider-Man en 1962, su jefe le puso todo tipo de objeciones: la gente odia a las arañas; los adolescentes no son personajes principales, solo compañeros; un héroe debía ser glamuroso, no un perdedor sin amigos. Pero Stan insistió y Martin Goodman accedió a darle una oportunidad a su insólito héroe en Amazing Fantasy, cuya cancelación ya estaba programada. Con Spider-Man en la portada, el n.º 15 alcanzó ese año el primer lugar de la lista de los más vendidos de Marvel, y el resto es historia.Amazing Spider-Man, que se publicó por primera vez siete meses después, rompió el molde de los cómics. Peter Parker vivía en el poco elegante Queens, no tenía un céntimo en el bolsillo, siempre estaba preocupado por su tía May, tenía mala suerte en el amor, y su jefe, el editor del Daily Bugle J. Jonah Jameson, se dirigía a él a gritos. Spider-Man tenía el ingenio y la confianza que le faltaba a Parker, pero aprender a usar sus poderes no fue una tarea fácil. A menudo se encontró al borde de la derrota frente a la galería de enemigos clásicos que debutaron en los dos primeros años: Buitre, Doctor Octopus, Hombre de Arena, Lagarto, Electro, Kraven el Cazador, Mysterio y el Duende Verde. Gran parte de la grandeza de Spider-Man es mérito de su cocreador, el artista Steve Ditko, que tenía un don para retratar a los adolescentes y sus problemas. Sus ilustraciones dotaron a Spider-Man de una energía y agilidad inauditas, y aunque tal vez todo el mundo temía a las arañas, Ditko hizo que balancearse por Nueva York pareciera la aventura más genial de la historia.Este sueño de coleccionista de tamaño XXL, parecido a la obra original, presenta las 21 primeras historias del lanzarredes favorito del mundo entre 1962 y 1964. En lugar de volver a colorear las ilustraciones originales (así se reimprimieron los cómics clásicos en décadas anteriores), TASCHEN ha intentado crear una representación ideal de estos libros tal como se produjeron cuando se publicaron. Se han abierto ejemplares originales inmaculados y se han fotografiado para su reproducción en estrecha colaboración con Marvel y Certified Guarantee Company. Cada página se ha fotografiado tal y como se imprimió hace más de medio siglo y luego se ha remasterizado digitalmente utilizando técnicas modernas de retoque para corregir los problemas con la impresión económica e imperfecta de la época. Como si saliera de una imprenta de primera categoría de la década de 1960. Para esta serie se han desarrollado en exclusiva tres tipos de papel diferentes, uno de ellos no estucado y otro sin madera, para simular el tacto de los cómics originales.Incluye un exhaustivo ensayo histórico del editor de Marvel Ralph Macchio, una introducción del supercoleccionista David Mandel, obras de arte originales, fotografías inéditas y otras joyas ocultas: 698 páginas de maravillas que harán que los sentidos arácnidos de los aficionados se estremezcan de placer. 2021 MARVEL.
