| Re: Marvel 1602 Oh yes ... got it when it first came out and yes it's a very interesting idea, especially how they all managed to fit into the political intrigues of the time. I also liked the idea of the universe bringing forth heroes out of their time and place because there was a need for them. Also think it's a pretty good introduction to Marvel characters for those who might not have been following the comics since all the essential pieces of information are there.
I think my favourites in the end were Nicholas Fury, Daredevil and Dr Strange. The choices of the the super heroes was very well made indeed and they could have absolutely belonged to that time. Even the names were altered well to fit the time and place. I've always liked tales woven around a central idea that's historically correct. It somehow makes the whole 'believable'
And I am glad to have met someone else who's read and liked the comic.  |
