WHAT IF MARVEL MASTERWORKED .....EVERYTHING?
Welcome to the hub page for all the different areas of Marvel Comics past that
could be visited by Masterworks! Each section of maps, linked to the right of
this sidebar introduction, details one of the many different worlds of Marvel
Comics, from the Golden Age that dawned in 1939, up to the 80s and 90s!
To access each page, just click on the image for the section which you'd like
to go to. Each section is clearly marked: Golden Age covers the superhero
comics of the Marvel line before Fantastic Four, with maps of a dizzying array
of potential titles. Silver Age carries maps of
all the superhero books of the Marvel Age of comics, plus the "Atomic Age" monster
comics, as well as other odds and ends from the period. The maps to take care
of the Bronze Age comics of the 1970s were so many that it takes two pages to cover them all! Also,
there is a page dedicated to the best comics of the 80s & 90s, hidden under the link
titled Modern Age.
Then there are What If? pages dedicated to the many genres that Marvel has dabbled in
over time. The Horror page has maps that account for the many horror, fantasy
and strange mystery titles from Marvel's Golden Age. Check out the Western What If?
page for the cowboys, cowgirls, outlaws and Native American Indians that populated the
landscape of Golden Age and Silver Age Marvel comics. I've combined all Crime & War Comics to
one page, so you can have access to maps that cover the pulp comics and battlefield exploits
of the Golden Age. And finally, Millie the Model, Patsy Walker, My Love Story and every funny
animal we can squeeze into their own maps are to be found at the What If? page linked from the
Laugh & Love image. (It's a hoot!)
The maps were put together by a staunch crew of zealous Masterworks advocates, primarily Cleazer,
Gary UK and Steve Rogers. Mockup images have been provided by David Spofforth and Scarlet Spider.
And yours truly, Gormuu, is doing his level best to keep things going! On behalf of the What If? crew,
I hope you all enjoy these pages. Much of this section of the site is still under construction, so
check back often to see if titles you're interested have received any attention.
And just to clarify,
these maps are all squarely in the land of "make believe." This is our best guess at what may lie ahead,
and under no circumstances do we say with a straight face that Marvel could, should, or will print a
Ziggy Pig and Silly Seal Masterworks! But the potential viability of a particular Masterworks is less
important to us than imagining...."What If....?"
