I love vintage international editions of American Marvel comic books. I'd like to collect one issue from every country.

In the meantime, enjoy L'Incroyable Hulk #54!

Shock, horror, & raw energy on the cover of "Death Rattle" #1 by artist Mark Schultz. Readers feel the same shock expressed by characters in this moment, which creates an connection between artist & reader. Kitchen Sink Comix1995.

Artist #Berniewrightson struck fear into the hearts of comic book readers with his stunning horror covers. His artistic superpowers included the illusion of motion and action in a single panel.

"Superman vs Amazing Spider-Man" offered a cover that fans of Marvel and DC were thrilled to see in 1976. The #visualstorytelling provided the impact required to sell a treasury-size comic for $2 when the average price of comics was only $.30.

Neal Adams cover to Green Lantern/Green Arrow #1 is iconic for the powerful #visualstorytelling. No words required to feel the emotional charge of this comic. It makes you want to know what happens on the interior pages.

Conan has emotions other than anger, as this powerful cover shows. The body language and placement of the cover adds to the overall impact of Conan's pain.
Conan #100 art is credited to Marie Severin, John Buscema, Ernie Chan, Danny Crespi.
