About This Item

[Montpelier, Vermont: Frank Miller, 1972. Softcover. Near Fine. Six issues. Quartos. Side stapled mimeographed leaves; the three later issues with cardstock covers. Each between 28pp. and 50pp. Overall near fine or better with some fading to some of the mimeograph covers, minor wear at the edges, a few tiny oxidation spots; and four with names on the covers. An amazing group of six issues of the mimeographed fanzines *EPIC*, drawn and edited by comic book legend Frank Miller while he was still in high school. The issues include 48 pages of stories written and drawn by Miller, along with 13 spot illustrations, three front covers, four rear covers, and four editorials. Miller stands as one of the most influential artists and writers in modern comic books and, in many ways, the person most responsible for dragging comics into the mainstream with his dark and gritty Batman stories of the 1980s, and his daringly innovative creator-owned books *Sin City* and *300*. These comics reveal a comic-obsessed teenager with a single-minded determination to become a comic book professional and with the clear goal to create, according to one of Miller's editorials, "new ideas necessary for the survival of the industry.".
