From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marvel Presents is a comic book anthology series published by Marvel Comics. Twelve issues were published from October 1975 to August 1977.
MARVEL PRESENTS #3, February, 1976.
The first two issues featured Ulysses Bloodstone. It is most notable for giving the Guardians of the Galaxy their first regular series, from issues #3 to #12, by Steve Gerber, Roger Stern, and Al Milgrom. Issue #7 depicted the first obvious sex act in a Comics Code-approved book, between Vance Astro and Nikki. It presumably made it past the code because Nikki was outside her physical body and Vance was in the mind of the Topographical Man, a humanoid heavenly body.
