![]() ![]() ![]() In addition to all of the Timely, Atlas, and Marvel comic books (through 1967), Goodman published multiple titles in nearly every mass audience periodical genre for four decades. Who knew that Artie Simek was also a cartoonist?! The second is a 170-page anthology of black-and-white pulp/magazine illustrations by comic book artists who appeared in Goodman’s non-comic publications, including Jack Kirby, Joe Simon, Alex Schomburg, Bill Everett, Carl Burgos, Syd Shores, and many others. ![]() The first is a beautifully illustrated, 100-page monograph on the history of Martin Goodman’s business operations and publications, excluding comic books. It’s really two books in one, both a step removed from comic books. What’s actually in the book partly corresponds to its subtitle: “Jack Kirby and the Moonlighting Artists at Martin Goodman’s Empire.” He’s not in the book, nor is the history of “Marvel Comics” as such, aside from some brief cameos. The cover of this book depicts Captain America leaving the building. ![]()
