Synopsis

Slugfest tells the decades-long story of the rivalry between Marvel and DC Comics, from their pulp-era origins through the 1960s Marvel revolution, the direct-market wars of the 1990s, and the modern battle for movie-screen dominance. Reed Tucker draws on interviews with writers, artists, and executives from both companies to reconstruct the schemes, grudges, and occasional collaborations that shaped the American comic book industry.

Rather than taking sides, the book treats the feud as a lens on how each company's culture and business strategy produced very different kinds of superhero storytelling.
