Within the Marvel Universe, heroes soar high in the skies, ready to battle the villains who threaten their world. Yet living in the shadow of these extraordinary icons are ordinary men and women, who view the Marvels' with a mixture of fear, disbelief, envy and admiration. Among them is Phil Sheldon, a New York City photojournalist who dedicates his career to covering the exploits of the Marvels and their effect on humankind. Plus: an extensive and gorgeous Alex Ross art gallery! Collecting: Marvels 0-4'
