Marvel Fanfare

    (Marvel, 1982-1992)
™ and ©1989 Marvel Entertainment Group

A deluxe, bimonthly series, Marvel Fanfare was a way for Marvel to spotlight some of its artistic rising stars while giving the writers a chance to stretch the bounds of established characters.

Throughout its run, Marvel Fanfare featured new stories starring such Marvel greats as Iron Man, Moon Knight, and the Black Widow. In doing so, it stepped beyond the usual “try-out” series to bring us some of the most beautiful and compelling stories these characters were ever featured in.
