David W. Tosh writes from both the collector's and die-hard
superhero comic fan.
He breaks down what publishing houses were doing in the Eras
he covers(DC and Marvel).
Tosh also addresses the devastating effect censorship had
on the entire industry.
The book features vignettes about the cross overs into television
and movies, up to the recent release of: Black Panther.
Intermixed with the history are Tosh's personal perspectives.
Tosh talks about how comic book collecting has evolved into
more of an investment mentality and how "rating" affects estimated
value.
Some topics take up a full two page lay out, which is very cool.
This would make a great gift for comic book collectors
and for fans of comic book Superheroes.
