Marvel Comics turned 80 last year and the celebration is still going strong. In November, Titan Comics will release a hardcover, illustrated companion book detailing the publisher's rich history. Appropriately titled Marvel: The First 80 Years, the book explores Marvel comics, creators, culture and merchandise.
