The One and Only Classic Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D: Nicholas Joseph Fury Appreciation

Considering what they've done to Dum-Dum, this whole page seems prophetic and a little bit sad.

I'm enjoying these old issues more than I thought I would.

Strange Tales #144 - The introduction of Jasper Sitwell.

And I thought this was rather good too!

(sorry for the quality of some of these images. I tried searching for ones on the Internet but I couldn't find all of them, so I had to take photos of the panels instead.

Those issues are filled with so much rich content that you really feel like you've read a novel by the end of it.

Rarely will you see as many descriptors and dialogue in today's comics.

All those pages are making me nostalgic, I gotta really improve my Fury collection

No better time. The SHIELD omnibus is out. Plus three volumes of the 90s series, the newest MAX series, and I think some of the miniseries.

Good time to be a espionage fan.

Let's not forget the Master of Kung Fu series will be reprinted by Marvel in Omnibus form, starting this Summer.

Before Secret Warriors, Bob Harras’ prestige format mini-series, Nick Fury vs. SHIELD was probably the most dramatic change to the world of Nick Fury and SHIELD, as Harras had Fury discover a vast conspiracy involving Hydra, AIM and SHIELD. Branded a traitor, Fury had to fight his own comrades as a number of supporting characters bit the dust (all of them eventually returned, I believe – some have been killed and resurrected once or twice each since). Paul Neary and Kim DeMulder did the artwork.

Also, this mini-series served as the inspiration for Captain America : The Winter Soldier? http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansit.../news/?a=79938
Pretty awesome!

Nick Fury vs. S.H.I.E.L.D. is a must-read for espionage fans. Thanks, 616MarvelYear is LeapYear.

I really would like to see a classic Fury series by Cooke or Timm...

Wow! You know all the news Rev. I'm starved for good reading right now too what with the All New, All Crap Marvel.

Me too. I don't think they will ever make great pages like that again. Silver and Bronze Age greatness. Posting them just makes you crave a read.

Good time to be a espionage fan.

Let's not forget the Master of Kung Fu series will be reprinted by Marvel in Omnibus form, starting this Summer.

Nice. Excellent series. I read the whole run when new but, alas no longer own it. Watch Shang Chi and Paul Gulacy develop at the same time. From great to greater.

Hail Jim Steranko!

Splendid image

Have to say, I think Dell'Otto did a better job on the other character variants for Original Sin. Don't like Nick's jaw guard / helmet.

Do not like it either

I'm in charge!
