Marvel Masters of Suspense: Stan Lee & Steve Ditko Omnibus Vol. 1 HC
Before Stan Lee and Steve Ditko revolutionized comics heroes with Spider-Man and Doctor Strange, they applied their incomparable storytelling to taut suspense thrillers! Chilling stories cast with nervous-eyed dreamers and sweaty-palmed schemers, none of whom make it out without getting theirs. These parables of wrenching psychological tension, crafted by two of comics' most creative minds, will leave you curled up and screaming for more! Marvel is honored to collect Lee and Ditko's complete Silver Age stories of suspense in two beautifully restored Omnibus volumes - from Ditko's very first Marvel work in 1956 to his last five-page masterpiece!
