He was not the first super hero, but the Man of Steel would become the prototype for all super heroes thereafter. Superman’s story, and those of Batman, Wonder Woman, and hundreds of other DC Comics characters, are all told in The Golden Age of DC Comics . The single most comprehensive book on the subject, this volume traces the company’s first decades, from its pulp origins up to the comic book burnings of the McCarthy ’50s in more than 400 pages bursting with comics, art, comics, photographs, and more comics. Also included is an exclusive interview with legendary artist Joe Kubert! About the series: TASCHEN’s series on DC Comics explores the origins of comics’ most enduring legends and the behind-the-scenes stories of the men and women who created them, era by era. Expanded from the Eisner Award –winning XL book, 75 Years of DC Comics , this new series hits the shelf at a reader-friendly size with essays updated by author Paul Levitz and more than 1,000 new images across five volumes. Thousands of covers and interiors, original illustrations, photographs, film stills, and collectibles have been reproduced to bring the story lines, the characters, and their creators to vibrant life, making this an invaluable reference for comics fans.

We were immigrants from wartime germany living in tsingtao-china. The Maines came in 1945 and set up headquartes next to our home - they broght with them these comics and crates of Coca-Cola. My good english is thanks to these magazines. Superman, Batman and Robin, Hawkman,, Greenarrow etc. were like family to me. My dad threw away all my huge collection of these friends on our way by ship to Palestine in 1948. I still vividly remember them as he threw them out of our cabin's porthole. Floating up and down in thew wake of the ship...Yet, I doubt he would have acted otherwise had he only known the future worth of these copies..The book brought back these memories, the action, the excitement and what's more - the stories of the figures behind.Excellent book, first-class printing. Recommend to all senior youngsters of my age ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The text is colloquial and easy to read and very informative *by on Reviewed in the United States May 15, 2016* This has become my showcase book in my vast collection of Comics history. The paper is of high quality the colors are spectacular.The text is colloquial and easy to read and very informative. I have a number of hard cover comic history books and this is the best I have ever owned, i will expect the same quality when I order the silver age DC. I removed the beautiful golden dust jacket so as not to have it frayed or folded or marred. I only put it back on the book when I am displaying it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HAPPY CAMPER.......... *by on Reviewed in the United States May 7, 2013* I didn't buy the 75 years book, though I had thought about it. My interest, being a bit of a pre boomer, was the golden and sliver age material, the things I bought or sought when I was a kid, and I figured the 75 year book would be dealing with a lot of the more recent entires which I have little interest in. Thus this first volume deals with the first half, the golden age, and the next one will be focusing on the silver age and that will pretty well do it for me. I'm pleased with the book as it brings back a lot of memories, as I expect the second one to do as well. There is a good deal of concentration on Batman and Superman in this volume, and I enjoyed that, as those two characters really put DC comics on the map, as far as I was concerned. Looking forward to the next volume. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/2475142-the-golden-age-of-dc-comics](https://www.desertcart.com.cy/products/2475142-the-golden-age-of-dc-comics) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cyprus* *Store origin: CY* *Last updated: 2026-07-25*
