Quantcast

It’s time to enjoy the camp age of the 1960s in Hero-A-Go-Go: Campy Comic Books, Crimefighters, and Culture of the Swinging Sixties. Written by Michael Eury (Back Issue magazine and former DC Comics editor), the book is filled with childhood favorites of the late baby boomers and early generation X.

It explores the fun of the ’60s when everyone from teenagers in Riverdale to the president were superheroes or secret agents. Remember the cultural phenomenon with nostalgic essays, histories, theme song lyrics of classic characters. There are also interviews with Bob Holiday (Broadway Superman), Dean Torrence (Jan and Dean Meet Batman), Ramona Fradon (Metamorpho), Tony Tallarico (The Great Society Comic Book), and Joe Sinnott (The Beatles comic book), among others.

The 272-page, full color trade paperback from TwoMorrows ships on April 19, 2017. It can be ordered from Diamond Comic Distributors using order code JAN172100. Learn more on TwoMorrow’s website.
