1982 Captain America Battles Baron Blood Pocketbook


Item: Stan Lee Presents Captain America Battles Baron Blood! Pocketbook
Year: May 1982
Company: Marvel Illustrated Books

Comments: Three years since the apparent last pocketbook, Marvel tries it again without Pocket Book's involvement. Reprinted is Roger Stern and John Byrne's great two part Baron Blood story from the end of 1980. Also, as a bonus, is including CAPTAIN AMERICA #250 where Cap entertains a presidential run. Not in color but the black and white lets one enjoy Byrne's art even more. However, the panels are re-arranged to about 2-3 a page. Bob Larkin paints the cover over the image originally created by John Byrne.
