Marvel began its revitalization as a publishing entity in 1961 with the release of Fantastic Four #1, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby's remarkable comic book where modern superheroes transformed by science shared center stage with monsters, romance and even their golden age counterparts. The success of Fantastic Four led to other superhero titles as Marvel slowly transformed its line in that direction. By 1966, comic book fans had begun to catch up with the special goings-on at Marvel, and the mainstream media started to follow, intrigued by the mix of genres and the real world touches individual books brought into their fantasy storylines. Combining sales, public acclaim and media interest, the flagship title of Marvel's new comics was The Amaz- ing Spider-Man, the story of a teenage superhero trying to do the right thing despite having to shoulder a lifetime's worth of responsibility. The year Marvel broke big was also the year Stan Lee decided that the departing artist Steve Ditko would be replaced by veteran cartoonist John Romita. In the 40 years since, Romita and his namesake son John Jr. have been the primary artists behind some of the best and most important runs in comic book history, all for Marvel Comics, as the company has become a worldwide presence in books, licensing and film.

The National Security Act of 1947 established a of Defense, the Central Intelligence Agency, and the National Security Council.

Dale Love & Death (20) The stories we sit up late to hear are love stories. It seems that we cannot know enough about this riddle of our lives. We go back to the same scenes, the same words, trying to scrape out the meaning. Nothing could be more familiar than love. Nothing eludes us so completely. Jeanette Winterson, The PowerBook Q: What does love feel like? A: It’s not a feeling; it’s a relationship, a way of life. Martha Nussbaum, philosopher, in an interview, The Guardian, October 2007 True, death itself is nothing; but the thought of it is like a mirror. A mirror, too, is empty, without content, yet it reflects us back to ourself in a reverse image. To try to contemplate the meaning of my death is in fact to reveal to myself the meaning of my life. Herbert Fingarette, Death: Philosophical Soundings The comfort that we can gain from the hard cruel truth of death is that life itself is wonderful, full of love and full of transcendental moments – that’s what really matters. Jim Crace, novelist, Love and death are oftentimes experienced as seismic upheavals in our lives; we are changed in puzzling, perhaps even mysterious ways by these two forces, sometimes delightfully and sometimes terrifyingly or painfully.

  • Joe Sinnott “The World’S Greatest Comic Inker!”
    JOE SINNOTT “THE WORLD’S GREATEST COMIC INKER!” Interviewed by Alan Doshna The Official Joe Sinnott Website http://www.joesinnott.com/ Few are the artists in any field who can dependably produce consistently outstanding work in their given field. Such a one, however, is renowned comic book penciller and inker Joe Sinnott.Born in Upstate New York in 1926, Joe is probably best known for his long tenure on The Fantastic Four, embellishing Jack Kirby’s pencils, The Mighty Thor, Captain America and others. Besides K irby, other whose work he has inked is a literal or “graphic”) Who’s Who” of comic book greats, such as Steve Ditko, Gil Kane, Neal Adams, John Buscema, John Byrne, Carmine Infantino and many, many more. Joe took some time for an interview with us recently. Q: Could you share with us a little bit about your early life and background? A: Oh, sure. Of course I was born in Saugerties, I still live in Saugerties. And I spent three years down in the city when I went to the Cartoonists and Illustrators School (Note: later called The School of Visual Arts). Of course, before that, I served in the Navy Seabees in WW II. And I always drew, I know you’d probably want to know that, ever since I can remember, when I was three years old. My mother had a boarding house, and one of the teachers gave me a box of crayons for my birthday when I was three years old, and it had an Indian on it. I can still recall the Indian, and I drew that Indian over and over and over again with those crayons, and we also had another roomer in the house that had been in the German submarine service in WW I.
