Forbidden Adventures: The History of the American Comics Group: Contributions to the Study of Popular Culture

Autor Michael Vance
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 iul 1996
A comprehensive history of a small, but important, comic book publisher, this work reflects the reading tastes of tens of millions of Americans during the Golden and Silver ages of comics (1934-1970). The earlier Sangor Shop reinvented itself as the American Comics Group and by 1967 had published over one thousand issues. ACG was a microcosm of the larger industry, publishing magazines in every major comic book genre. Best known titles include Herbie and Forbidden Worlds. It was ACG's Adventures into the Unknown that sparked a new genre-horror-which led to the Comics Code Authority, and industry-wide self censorship.
