If you've ever wanted to know about Jack Kirby and Stan Lee, and the early days of comics, Tales to Astonish is the book for you. Live from his vacation in Maine, Josh still finds time to bring you an update on a great prose book. Don't worry, it's about comics. Tales to Astonish , by Ronin Ro, tells the story of the early days of comics, and more specifically, the life of Jack Kirby, and it's every bit as compelling as any story Jack ever came up with. This book tells us what it was really like in the days of the fabled Marvel Bullpen, and who was really behind the creation of some of the most famous characters in comic book history. Also, Josh sucks at boats.
