	Marvel Age - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Marvel Age is an imprint of Marvel Comics intended for younger audiences, including children, established in 2003.
		The other titles that were not part of the Marvel Age continuity, including Emma Frost, Runaways, Mary Jane and Spider-Girl, were excluded from the new imprint (the individual issues of Emma Frost, Runaways and Spider-Girl had never used the Marvel Age trade dress anyway).
		Marvel Age was also the title of a promotional comic book-sized magazine from Marvel Comics in the 1980s.

	The MARVEL AGE of COMICS (the 60's)
		With characteristic hyperbole, but also considerable accuracy, editor Stan Lee dubbed this period "The Marvel Age of Comics." In fact, the term has been adopted by comic book fans all over the world and is still used today to describe the 1960's.
		Marvel's first editor, Joe Simon, theorized that kid companions like Captain America's Bucky were important because they gave the protagonist someone to talk to; Spider-Man talked to himself.
		Spider-Man, despite the fact that he was not originally intended to star in a series, became the epitome of the radical innovations that characterized The Marvel Age.

	Decathlon (Marvel Age character)
		(Marvel Age I#16) - As he trained in a gym, the young athlete was approached by a group of corrupt Russian government officials and doctors.
		According to Marvel Age #15-16, Mark Lerer, the assistant editor of the book, was trying to break in as a real writer at Marvel.
		That we don't know the full details of his story is, really, where a lot of this guy's trouble is. I didn't refer to him as Decathlon in the body of the profile because there was no logical point in the story as we know of it for him to adopt that identity.

	Revolving Door of Death 01 - The Human Torch (Jan 1998)
		One reason may be because, unlike DC Comics, Marvel did not buy out (or sue and forclose on) entire lines of comics characters, such as the acquired properties of Fawcett, Quality, Charlton, and legions of others they absorbed.
		Marvel, however, was to the point of ruin.
		If we believe the legends of the history of Marvel comics, there was a point at which a desperate Stan Lee sat in Marvel's offices, watching the furniture being taken out for non-payment, devoid of distributors and hope, weeping on a desk, when Golden Age comics veteran Jack Kirby walked in and saved everything.

	Early Marvel Age x Silver Age - HERO GAMES Discussion Boards
		Marvel was trying to create characters we could relate to, DC was trying to continue with characters that awed us.
		The "Silver Age" is primarily the DC line and started with the first appearance of the Barry Allen Flash in Showcase #4.
		According to legend, the heads of DC and Marvel (I don't remember either of their names, sorry) were playing golf and the Marvel guy was regaled with tales of how well JLA was selling.

	The Silver Age
		The Golden Age Flash was a fictional character in the Silver Age.
		They explained that the Golden Age Flash was a real person on Earth-2, and by crossing over, the two could appear at the same time.
		During the Marvel Age, Marvel Comics revived some of their Golden Age heroes, others they revamped.

	The CHUD.COM Message Boards - The Marvel Age
		It strikes me that, for all that Marvel is generally considered to be THE comics company by so many fanboys, the actual period during which Marvel was dominating the comics field creatively was pretty short.
		Not that Marvel is innocent, with Spidey clone, Heroes Reborn, Thing wearing a helmet/any FF story in the 90s, pretty much all the X-books for pretty much all the time, all those awful books that eventually bankrupt the company in the early 90s...
		Marvel got off to a great start with their epic line, but the imprint was pretty aimless.

	Marvel Silver Age Superhero Timeline
		Marvel Super-Heroes was mostly a reprint series, but for nine issues it included new material, including the introduction of two minor Marvel mainstays--Captain Marvel and the Guardians of the Galaxy.
		Marvel started two split-hero titles (Amazing Adventures and Astonishing Tales) in 1970, and while they could be seen as the first post-Silver Age titles, I think it's more accurate to see their early divided issues as the last hurrah of the Silver Age.
		Probably the most striking example within Marvel is Marvel Feature #1, which contained three stories, all by Roy Thomas, including the first appearance of The Defenders, who got their own (post-Silver Age) series in August 1972.

		The current crowd at Marvel seems to be even more out of touch than the previous one and apparently has no understanding of the treasure it is sitting on.
		The Golden Age of Marvel Comics volume 2, released in 1999, is a collection of various stories from Marvel Comics' Golden Age era (the first volume of The Golden Age of Marvel Comics was released in 1997).

	- News : 'Marvel Age' series of comics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Marvel has plans for a new âall ages series of comics, that while undoubtedly will prove popular with children, will almost certainly prove controversial with other fans.
		The new series will be known as âMarvel Ageâ and will reprint classic stories of itâs main characters from the past few years, but will also âupdateâ stories from the undeniably classic âMarvel Ageâ essentially re-writing and re-drawing the stories as were once told by the likes of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.
		The planned series is already making waves amongst the comic-buying community, with much trepidation amongst fans over de-doing stories that are already classic, and, in the belief of many, should should be left that way.

		I'm not as up on modern Marvel continuity as I used to be, and for a lot of modern events and continuity I'm relying on others to give me information, so it's entirely possible--likely, even--I could have missed an appearance or a continuity revision.

		McKeever has a tough job on his hands - not only must he rework one of the most famous origin stories in all comics history in realistic, contemporary terms, he must make an initial adventure which was only moderately exciting to begin with strong enough to pull in a new audience.
		If the artwork painfully reminds you of the Marvel Mangaverse series we were all subjected to a few years back, it should come as no surprise since artist Makoto Nakatsuka, well known for his manga in Japan, did the art for those, too.
		In the Mangaverse titles, it made sense for the artwork to be indistinguishable from the manga art that inspired it, and even more sense for Nakatsuka to do the artistic chores since that's the artistic idiom he's used to working in.

	The Silver Age Marvel Comics Cover Index Reviews page
		In looking more closely at the development of Silver Age Marvel, an observer can see a certain progression of storytelling complexity as the company, helmed by editor Stan Lee, moved from an early determination to try something new, to a growing consciousness that it had stumbled onto something bursting with potential.
		This whole Silver Age period can be broken down roughly into four phases: 1) the Early, Formative Years; 2) the Years of Consolidation; 3) the later, Grandiose Years and 4) the Twilight Years.
		Prince Namor, the Sub-Mariner, was Marvel's first revival of a character from the company's "golden age" of the 1940s, the Fantastic Four's first true super-villain and the first of a long line of bad guys whose personalities would be given enough wrinkles to prevent readers from completely hating them, if not sometimes sympathizing with them.
