About this ebook
From the masterminds behind YouTube’s Comicstorian: “Tremendous insight and unique perspectives that any comic fan, new or old, will enjoy.” —Rob Jefferson of Comics Explained
It’s the Golden Age of comic book movies, with blockbuster after blockbuster starring larger-than-life characters—Thor, Superman, Batman, Captain America, Wonder Woman, and of course, baddies like Loki, The Joker, and Lex Luthor. When it comes to superheroes of the silver screen, nobody knows more than the masterminds behind the wildly popular Comicstorian YouTube channel—and in this guide to comic book films, they divulge behind-the-scenes secrets and the hidden history behind these must-see movies, including how, after very rocky beginnings, they shot to the top with DC and Marvel as two of the most important franchises in the industry.
If you love The Hulk, The Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Iron Man, and are still laughing about Deadpool, look no further. With The Rise of Comic Book Movies, you’ll feel like you’re on the film set, walking the halls of Valhalla, and in your very own Fortress of Solitude with your favorites.
