Slugfest: Inside the Epic, 50-Year Battle Between Marvel and DC by Reed Tucker
4.0
Anyone else wonder about what went into the comic book industry before us young-uns had the MCU and Justice League cartoons?
Well, I'm a massive nerd, so I did. And this book told me exactly what I wanted to know.
The DC/Marvel feud is as ripe with petty backstabbing and artist egos as my reality-TV-loving heart dreamed. Absolute madness went on in both minuscule NYC offices, and that absolute madness somehow led to one of the most financially profitable cinematic behemoths in decades. (Look at the TV selection on Disney+ if you don't believe me.)
I'm not going to spoil anything, but this was a lot more fun than I expected and I'm quite enjoying my jaunt into non-fiction.
