The Bronze Age !!!!!!!

That's the age I was born in and it is also the age I love the most. I also feel it is STILL underrated and under appreciated as it was kind of a wonky period where new things were tried out, real issues were thrust into the mainstream, and the dark corners of art/concepts were brought back en mass as they had been pre-code.

So, what are your favorite Bronze Age books/artists/stories/etc !!!!????!!!!

Also a BA collector here. Currently working on Batman/'Tec Joker appearances, Wonder Woman 178-203 and trying to finish out my Byrne/Claremont run.

I've recently started doing Tomb of Dracula slabs as well...which is probably going to end up just being 1-10, and I'll go raw on the rest.

The_Watcher already mentioned some of my fave runs, Miller DD and Byrne/Claremont X-Men.

I also love BA Defenders, Amazing Spider-Man, and my favorite Marvel character happens to come from that era as well, Dazzler.

Oh, love BA Justice League and Teen Titans as well!

My favorite age as well. I'm getting so old that I didn't see this thread until after I started a thread.

Yea. I still have the Bats 227 Mass copy. Along with the Tec 400 Mass copy.

I also have a CGC 7.0 ASM 129 and a raw Bats 227 that is about a 9.0

Haven't bought many books this past year. But I did pick up this 129, an Iron Fist 14, another copy of ASM 42, and a Secret Wars 8. All from the same guy, in a package deal. He needed some money and I needed another ASM 129.

My favorite Iron Man artist, even over Kirby (and that's blasphemy for me)

I thought you might find this interesting. It is a newspaper type publication, with Neal Adams doing a "different" Thor story.
