Description
Published 1999
Covers for the compilation of the first 24 issues of the Avengers.
Done on one 11 by 17 board.
These were the issues I grew up on.
I recall buying Avengers 1 off the stands and winning a bet with a friend that the Hulk was a member of the Avengers by showing him that issue.
So this was a pure nostalgic pick up for me as I could never own any of the original covers even if they still existed.

The low viewing angle works so well in making the characters look heroic in the first cover. The framing of both of these compositions is excellent.

We've got the groovy Essential

Grawbadger's long lines
Or Avengers mystery
Tell me babe, tell me
What's it gonna be?

We've got the groovy essential
Can't you hear the sound?
Your covers get up, get up, get up
So see Immonen

We've got the groovy essential
C'mon Miki
Let's get down

There's no time for sleeping
'Cause delight is in front
It's time for you and me
To have some Zemo fun

Both the front and back cover, together on one board and for the first volume? How very cool! Not many people can say they remember buying Avengers #1 off the stands, though, so that's even cooler than the art!

Immonen nailed the assignment, evoking those old school silver age Avengers feels with both of these images. Pretty awesome to have the front and back covers to even a collected edition for those issues especially if that's what you grew up on. congrats Miki!
