Il Gran Maestro ha sfidato a una partita a scacchi la Morte stessa, e le pedine sono gli eroi della Terra! In caso di vittoria, potrà far tornare in vita un altro degli Antichi dell’Universo: il Collezionista. Se invece dovesse perdere, il prezzo da pagare sarebbe altissimo. Così due squadre di super esseri sono costrette ad affrontarsi da un capo all’altro del pianeta, in un trionfo di colpi di scena e di battaglie tra volti vecchi e nuovi. Il trio di scrittori composto da Mark Gruenwald (Squadron Supreme), Bill Mantlo (The Incredible Hulk) e Steven Grant (The Punisher), affiancato da John Romita Jr. (The Amazing Spider-Man), dà vita alla prima miniserie della storia della Marvel, e al primo, vero, scontro globale tra super esseri.

The Penguin Classics Marvel Collection presents the origin stories, seminal tales, and characters of the Marvel Universe to explore Marvel’s transformative and timeless influence on an entire genre of fantasy. A Penguin Classics Marvel Collection Edition Collects Captain America Comics #1 (1941); the Captain America stories from Tales of Suspense #59, #63-68, #75-81, #92-95, #110-113 (1964-1969); “Captain America…Commie Smasher” from Captain America #78 (1954). It is impossible to imagine American popular culture without Marvel Comics. For decades, Marvel has published groundbreaking visual narratives that sustain attention on multiple levels: as metaphors for the experience of difference and otherness; as meditations on the fluid nature of identity; and as high-water marks in the artistic tradition of American cartooning, to name a few. Drawing upon multiple comic book series, this collection includes Captain America’s very first appearances from 1941 alongside key examples of his first solo stories of the 1960s, in which Steve Rogers, the newly resurrected hero of World War II, searches to find his place in a new and unfamiliar world. As the contents reveal, the transformations of this American icon thus mark parallel transformations in the nation itself. A foreword by Gene Luen Yang and scholarly introductions and apparatus by Ben Saunders offer further insight into the enduring significance of Captain America and classic Marvel comics. The Deluxe Hardcover edition features gold foil stamping, gold top stain edges, special endpapers with artwork spotlighting series villains, and full-color art throughout.
