Marvel by the Month

#088: October 1967 (w/Tom Brevoort) - "The Coming of Captain Marvel!"


Listen Later

Tom Brevoort is Marvel Comics' Senior Vice-President of Publishing and Executive Editor, not to mention Marvel's current longest-serving editor. Honestly, we're a little nervous about the fact that he knows we exist, but the flerkin's out of the bag now. His blog, The Tom Brevoort Experience, is an absolute must-read for anyone who loves the history and craft of comics. 

(And, of course, please purchase and read every issue of every Marvel Comic that he edits, and tell him that we asked you to do that.)
