RECOMMENDED READING - AMERICAN COMIC BOOK CHRONICLES: THE '50s TO THE '80s...

For those interested in the history of American comicbooks 

(notice that I render the term as one word, just like STAN LEE),

this scintillating series of volumes by TwoMorrows Publishing sure

hits the spot.  Lavishly illustrated, each book explores a different decade

(with the swingin' '60s being accorded two tomes) from the '50s to the

'80s.  A fascinating and illuminating look at the history of the medium,

these five volumes are just what every true comicbook fan should

have on his bookshelf.  (If he's got a bookshelf that is.)

Available from your local FORBIDDEN PLANET store, I'd

get around there right away before their stock sells out.  As they're

bound to once people read about them on this here post.  Read the

spiel on the back covers for further details about each book.
