The web-slingers’ former editor Tim Quinn will give a talk at Crawley library on the history of comic books, his authoritative presentation will reflect on his time working for Britain’s Beano, Sparky and Bunty before being lured across the Atlantic to bring his inventive talents to play working for America’s Marvel comics where he edited Spider-Man and X-Men.
