☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis anthology collects a wide-ranging selection of comic book stories curated by the Smithsonian Institution, spanning from the underground comix of the 1960s to the alternative comics of the early 2000s. Featuring works by notable creators such as Robert Crumb and Daniel Clowes, the volume aims to showcase the artistic and cultural evolution of the medium through diverse narrative styles and genres. It serves as a companion to the original Smithsonian Book of Comic-Book Stories, offering an updated perspective on the art form's history.
"I Remember the Sixties" is a standout entry in The New Smithsonian Book of Comic-Book Stories, offering a rare collaborative glimpse into the minds of Steve Ditko and Stan Lee. This powerful tale, illustrated, inked, and lettered entirely by Ditko, captures Spidey at his most desperate—trapped beneath rubble in a drowning underwater base, racing against time to save Aunt May from radiation. A gripping, character-driven story that stands as a poignant testament to the enduring legacy of Spider-Man’s personal stakes.
