1986 - 1-on-1 Adventure Gamebooks

These 1-on-1 Gamebooks were released in sets of two boxed books. The idea was to have two players reading each book at the same time and would encounter each other and battle it out. Only 10 of the 11 books were published and there were only 2 Marvel Super Heroes books of the 10.

Marvel Super Heroes Adventure Gamebooks, based on the popular Marvel Super Heroes roleplaying game, allows you to play as your favorite hero and battle some of the vilest villains in the Marvel Universe. One-on-One allows you play as either the hero or the villain. Includes two gaming books. Softcover (2 vollumes with Slipcase), 5-in. x 7 1/2-in., 320 pages (2 Volumes), B&W. Cover price $5.95.

Iron Man Omnibus has shipped!

Looking forward to getting this lovely book dropped on my doorstep tomorrow... weighting in at just over 5 pounds... Not too keen on the logo, wish they would have gone with the classic one.

Up-and-coming talents David Michelinie, Bob Layton and John Romita Jr. joined forces to take on Marvel's Golden Avenger in 1978 - and captured lighting in a bottle! Now, their history-making first run is collected in one massive volume! From Tony Stark's taboo-shattering struggle with alcoholism to Iron Man's legendary clash with Dr. Doom during King Arthur's time, this one's got it all - including Justin Hammer's introduction; a brutal battle against the Hulk; the menaces of Madame Masque, the Melter, Blizzard, Whiplash, the Dreadnoughts, the Titanium Man and more; and the debut of Tony's outer-space and stealth armors!

COLLECTING: Iron Man (1968) 115-157

Although I like this one, better than the direct market one...

I'll have pics up tomorrow...
