You can buy your comics in multiple formats and collections, but not all editions are equal. People at Marvel Comics know comic book fans don’t have the same relationship with their books. Some comics are good to be read in bulk, some are made to be looked at for hours. For those last ones, Marvel Gallery Editions are perfect.
The Gallery Editions Marvel Comics is publishing are larger than standard comic books, typically measuring around 9.3 x 13.25 inches, which is bigger than any other editions put out by Marvel. The idea behind that format is to allow readers to appreciate the artwork’s fine details and to look at the pencil and ink work in the best possible condition–it’s a chance to take a closer look at the drawings of legendary creators like Sal Buscema, Jim Starlin, Bill Sienkiewicz, Todd McFarlane, Joe Quesada, Tim Sale, and others like you could not before.
Many Marvel Gallery Editions include introductions, essays, or behind-the-scenes insights, offering context about the creative process and significance of the works. They also sometimes reproduce pages directly from the original art boards, including annotations, corrections, and margin notes.
As those Marvel Gallery Editions are high-quality oversized hardcover collections, books that use premium paper and binding, they are also premium-priced.
