Captain America

Celebrate the 80th anniversary of the first Avenger with Captain America, an exclusive Folio edition collecting classic Captain America stories. Former Marvel Editor-in-Chief Roy Thomas selects key stories from Cap’s 80-year career – from wartime battles with the Red Skull to his Reagan-era resignation – presenting the ultimate portrait of Marvel’s shield-slinging Super Hero. This ultimate comic-book chronicle of the Sentinel of Liberty also features a replica issue of 1941’s Captain America Comics #1. Few embody the spirit of wartime Super Heroes quite like Captain America. Conceived by Jewish creators Jack Kirby and Joe Simon, the character famously punched out Hitler on the cover of Captain America Comics #1 — months before America officially entered the Second World War. This iconic piece of comic book history has been reproduced in its entirety as a meticulous replica issue, included with this edition. Every page has been painstakingly scanned from an authentic copy, preserving original promos and vintage ads with no digital remastering.
