Every week, we'll tap one creator to browse Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited and pick some of their favorite work from the expansive catalog. This week: legendary artist Sal Buscema, who is celebrating his 40th year with Marvel Comics:
"In
AVENGERS v1 #71, Earth's Mightiest Heroes encounter the greatest champions of the Golden Age, the Invaders, courtesy of Buscema and writer Roy Thomas. Buscema's bold style brings the classic incarnations of Captain America, Namor and the Human Torch roaring into the Marvel Age of Comics as they unleash their awe-inspiring power in battle with the Avengers!
"Disillusioned with his calling as Captain America, Steve Rogers gives up his costumed identity, only to be called back into action in
CAPTAIN AMERICA #179. In this thought-provoking story written by Steve Englehart, Rogers must reexamine his values system, a journey of self-discovery that leads the former Sentinel of Liberty to—with the help of Buscema's dynamic designs—create the new guise of Nomad!
"
THOR #374, taking place in the midst of Walter Simonson's legendary run on the Mighty title, sees the God of Thunder crash into the "Mutant Massacre" crossover, coming to the aid of X-Factor and clashing with the murderous Marauders! Buscema stretches his range from the sewers of New York City to the mountains of Asgard in this titanic tale!"
