Mort Künstler Covered Volume 1 by Robert Deis (Editor), Wyatt Doyle (Editor), and Mort Künstler
Often called “America’s Artist” for the historically themed paintings and bestselling art prints that defined the latter part of his career, Mort Künstler began his illustration career working in a quite different—but no less American—area of commercial art: MAM [men’s adventure magazines] covers and interior spreads. During the 1950s, ’60s, and ’70s, Künstler numbered among the leading creators of artwork for MAMs. In those magazines’ pages (and perhaps most importantly, on those covers), his work brought the fantasies and daydreams of mid-century American males to vivid life with rich, explosive color and an enviable sense of scope and grandeur, serving up spectacular depictions of epic action, exotic adventure, hard-boiled crime, survival, and courage on the battlefield.
Collecting an eye-popping array of Künstler’s covers for legendary magazines such as Action For Men, Battlefield, and For Men Only, The Men’s Adventure Library proudly presents Mort Künstler Covered Volume 1, in full color.

Ian Boucher explores how the half-shell heroes rose to become representatives for a generation confronting pollution and climate concerns. First self-published in 1984 and quickly exploding into comics, cartoons, toys, and blockbuster films, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles were themselves products of human-made environmental disaster. Their origin story—mutation by toxic ooze—placed them at the heart of late-twentieth-century anxieties about contamination, industrial waste, and ecological collapse. The Turtles’ amalgamation of influences made them a unique reflection of environmental justice in a green media ecosystem.
