Hello, and welcome to the Marvel Age Doom blog!

My name's Mark Hibbett and, among other things, I'm a PhD student at Central St Martins. The current title of my thesis is Comics And Transmedia In The Marvel Age (1961-1987): Doctor Doom As Hyper-diegetic Hero and part of my research involves reading every comic featuring Doctor Doom which was published between 1961 and 1987 (see this blog for an explanation of what I mean by 'The Marvel Age'), so I thought a blog would be a good way to record my impressions as I go along, and also to see if anybody else has any thoughts about them.

I'm planning to read each issue in order (see this blog for an explanation of how I identified the relevant comics) then write them up here. The plan is to post at least one blog a week about a comic which fulfills my inclusion criteria, with more on other days about the issues which don't fit the criteria, or any interesting aspects of the research that pop up.

I think it'll be interesting and hopefully informative - let me know what you think in the comments!
