Classic Comics with Matthew B. Lloyd: Marvel Comics #1

It all began here in 1939, the issue that launched the company that would become Marvel Comics. In this issue we meet the first two stars of Timely Comics, the Human Torch and the Sub-Mariner! It’s a run through of the issue as Classic Comics looks at this historic issue from the Golden Age of Comics. You can follow the show @ComicsLloyd on Twitter or send an email to [email protected].
