I would have loved to live in the 1970s and work at Marvel!

NYC was a horrible place to live in in the early to mid 1970s. The city was broke and laid off thousands of police and firemen. Ambulance service was almost non-existent. Racial tension was everywhere.

The tv show Life on Mars is a pretty accurate depiction of the Rotten Apple , as it was at the time.

With that said, I'd have loved to work at Marvel in that era.

I don't know about you guys, but when I see photos like the ones in this article, I strongly want to go back in time and go to work at Marvel in the good old seventies.

Stan The Man was incredibly cool, one of the coolest guy in the world. Look at Chris Claremont! Also Dave Sim was cool!

If we read this book

unfortunately we will find out it wasn`t a paradise, and a lot of backstabbing happened back in the 1970s. :(

 

I'm on page 170, but I'm a slow reader. Love this book so far. So much information.
