Hot on the heels of the explosion of star-spangled super heroes, U.S.A. COMICS presented a wild and wooly selection of patriotic characters fighting for the Red, White and Blue. From the Victory Boys and the American Avenger to wilder heroes like Roko the Amazing, the Blue Blaze and the Fighting Hobo, U.S.A. was a comics magazine bursting at the seams with crazy concepts. But with the Second World War raging, it became clear there was only one hero who could headline a book titled U.S.A.: Captain America! Backed up by the Destroyer, Marvel Boy and the Whizzer — as well as the adventures of regular joes like Sergeant Dix and Jeep Jones, and true tales of WWII — U.S.A. COMICS was the perfect dose of four-color excitement for the American G.I.! Sporting some of the most famous covers of comics’ Golden Age, the early Captain America issues of U.S.A. are some of the rarest Marvel comics of all time, and they’re collected here for the first time ever!

Take another swing through the life of the Amazing Spider-Man! Peter Parker’s been taken to the edge, and he’s come back — but now he faces the Kingpin! And the boss of New York City’s crime scene doesn’t just have it in for Spider-Man, he’s looking to deep-six both Spidey and Mr.-Hugs-and-Kisses himself, J. Jonah Jameson. Will the web-slinger save the day, or will he do a favor for all humanity and let Jonah take a well-deserved dip with the fishes? Then, it’s horror on the home front when Peter Parker becomes the third wheel to comics’ odd couple. Yes, Aunt May’s found a new friend — in the person of Dr. Otto Octavius! Yowza!

Cover by SIMONE BIANCHI
The Thunder God as you’ve never seen him before! Odin has left his kingdom of Asgard, putting Thor in charge of a crumbling empire. The Thunder God is faced with one trouble after another: rebelling Frost Giants, internal dissent from his fellow countrymen and a winter that has lasted for years. These trials have left Thor weary — unable, even, to lift his sacred hammer, Mjolnir. When a surprise attack damages Bifrost, the Rainbow Bridge, and injures its guardian, Heimdall, Thor realizes Asgard is not only being attacked from outside, but also from within. With his kingdom on the brink of collapse, can Thor uncover and defeat the forces that conspire against him, or is the inevitability of Ragnarok upon him? Collecting THOR: FOR ASGARD #1-6 and material from THOR SPOTLIGHT.
