Marvel Comics Library: The Avengers Vol. 1 (1963–1965) – Collector’s Edition
While superhero teams had existed since the 1940s, a bold new era began in 1963 when Thor, Ant-Man, the Wasp, the Hulk, and Iron Man joined forces to form The Avengers. Unlike any team before them, these heroes didn’t just battle villains—they often clashed with one another, adding layers of drama and complexity that redefined the genre.
Now, in a volume as epic as the team itself, the first 20 Avengers stories (1963–1965) are brought together in a deluxe Collector’s Edition. Carefully reproduced using state-of-the-art photography from the most pristine original comics, this oversized TASCHEN edition captures every explosive panel and iconic moment in breathtaking detail.
This is more than a reprint—it's a fine art celebration of Marvel’s mightiest team, and a book worthy of Tony Stark’s private collection.

- Edition: English
- A striking aluminum print cover

Earth’s Mightiest Heroes
Assembling the definitive Marvel Age Avengers anthology
By early 1963 the foundations of the Marvel Universe had been laid. Following the introduction of the Fantastic Four in 1961 came the amazing (Spider-Man), the astonishing (Ant-Man), the strange (Doctor, that is), the incredible (Hulk), the invincible (Iron Man) and the mighty (Thor). Still, Marvel editor in chief Stan Lee realized something was missing. “I was writing these characters and I thought it would fun to put them together in a team,” he recalled. So Lee and artist Jack Kirby assembled Iron Man, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Thor, and the Hulk to create the Avengers.
Right away it was clear this team was different. If the Fantastic Four were family, then the Avengers were the co-workers you didn’t choose. Not everyone got along—the Hulk fought with everyone—but working together they could defeat the baddest of Marvel’s bad guys, like Loki, Kang the Conqueror, the Masters of Evil, and Immortus. The lineup was ever changing: The Hulk departed, Captain America joined, and Ant-Man grew up to become Giant-Man. Then, remarkably, villains Hawkeye, Quicksilver, and the Scarlet Witch became heroes—and Avengers—and the group’s founding members shockingly departed, leaving Captain America to lead the newly-minted heroes.
Relive the classic early adventures of Avengers Nos. 1–20 in an XXL-sized edition that’s bigger than the Hulk’s fist, weightier than Thor’s hammer, and with more extras than Iron Man’s armor. TASCHEN has attempted to create an ideal representation of these books as they were produced at the time of publication. The most pristine pedigreed comics have been cracked open and photographed for reproduction in close collaboration with Marvel and the Certified Guaranty Company. Each page has then been digitally remastered, using modern retouching techniques to correct problems with the era’s inexpensive, imperfect printing—as if hot off of a world-class 1960s printing press.
Accompanying the stories are an original foreword by Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige and an in-depth history by the Eisner Award-winning writer Kurt Busiek that’s illustrated with original art, little-seen photographs, and rare documents. This mighty collection about Earth’s Mightiest Heroes is worthy of Tony Stark’s library—or yours.
This deluxe volume features an aluminum print cover tipped into a leatherette-bound spine, foil embossing, and is housed in a slipcase.
Collector’s Edition of 1,000 numbered copies. Also available in a XXL Famous First Edition. - Reviews
