Marvel Age #19

Marvel Age #19 is a vibrant time capsule from 1984, heralding the launch of Marvel's Star Comics imprint with a cover bursting with energy. Spider-Man in his sleek black symbiote suit leaps front and center, surrounded by a constellation of star-framed character portraits — Wally the Wizard, Planet Terry, Royal Roy, Top Dog, Heathcliff, The Muppets, The Get Along Gang, The Ewoks, Fraggle Rock, and more — all announced with the rallying cry "Look out, world — here comes Star Comics!" Cover pencils by Warren Kremer, Howie Post, and Marty Taras make this a genuinely fun snapshot of Marvel's bold push into all-ages publishing.
