The Marvels Project: Birth of the Super Heroes

In 2011, Marvel launched The Marvels Project: Birth of the Super Heroes, a single prestige-format issue crafted by the acclaimed team of writer Ed Brubaker and artist Steve Epting. This one-shot serves as a concise, atmospheric origin point, chronicling the dawn of the Marvel Universe's heroic age through the eyes of its earliest champions. It distills the foundational mythology of Marvel's Golden Age into a focused, visually striking narrative that matters as a modern re-examination of where the publisher's legacy of super heroes truly began.
