And today you can experience the stories that founded Marvel as the Golden Age Marvel Masterworks march on. In our second volume, the Human Torch joins the police force, the Sub-Mariner is put on trial - and gets the electric chair! - the Angel takes on the mob, Ka-Zar defends his jungle kingdom, and Electro and Professor Zog continue their wild adventures. You'll also see history made when the Human Torch and the Sub-Mariner cross over into each other's series for comics' first hero vs. hero battle! Collecting MARVEL MYSTERY COMICS #5-8."

"In September 1939, a new title hit newsstands and changed the comic-book world forever: MARVEL COMICS #1 had arrived! And this 64-page package wasn't your typical assortment of super-powered, straight-laced do-gooders. This was something completely new. The Human Torch, the creation of Dr. Phineas Horton, was neither man nor hero. He was a fiery force of nature who shocked and unsettled mankind. The half-human/half-Atlantean Sub-Mariner ventured from his undersea kingdom not with a mind set on peace, but bent toward vengeance! They're flanked by an eclectic set born out of the energy and imagination of the Golden Age - including the heroic Angel, robot invention Electro, hard-edged detective the Ferret, cowboy Masked Raider and jungle adventurer Ka-Zar. Painstakingly restored with a host of bonus material, this volume is a must for every comic reader's library. Collecting MARVEL COMICS #1 and MARVEL MYSTERY COMICS #2-4. 288 PGS./All Ages "
