Captain Marvel v2 #28 - Jim Starlin art & cover + 1st Thanos cover

Jim Starlin

Captain Marvel v2 #28, 1973 -The Avengers enter the fray, joining Captain Marvel in stopping the world conquering Thanos. Jim Starlin's opening splash of the heroes is more artistic and forceful than previous issues (despite John Romita's modifications on Captain America). Page layouts vary wildly but effectively, especially the dream-like distortions (page 14) and the Cosmic Cube's introduction (page 21). Perhaps Starlin's most impressive feat is page 18 (see interior page below), a mosaic of small panels that communicate events in almost complete silence. This story was later reprinted in Life of Captain Marvel #2 and #3. Also, although Thanos technically appeared on the cover of Captain Marvel #26, this is his first full cover appearance. This is 4 of 12 Captain Marvel v2 issues by Starlin. /// key 1st full cover appearance Thanos / Starlin gallery
