FRANKENSTEIN ALIVE, ALIVE! #4 First printing. Silver-Foil Embossed Cover. Our Highest Recommendation. By Steve Niles. Art by Bernie Wrightson and Kelley Jones. The exciting climax of Niles' and Wrightson's reinterpretation of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley's Frankenstein! The first part of this was originally published as three comics in 2012-14, then collected in early 2018 into one book. This conclusion was not printed until 2018, two months after that first compilation. Niles' gothic storytelling couples perfectly with Bernie Wrightson, who drew the cover, five pages and all layouts, and Kelley Jones, who finished off the book. Our sad, misunderstood monster meets his ultimate fate! IDW, 2018...More. Item Code: FRAL04 Soft Cover, 7x10, 32pg, b&w $4.99 |

ALSO AVAILABLE FRANKENSTEIN ALIVE, ALIVE! TRIO Holy Smoke, "New" Wrightson!! Issues #1-3, 2012-14. Our Highest Recommendation. By Steve Niles. Art by Bernie Wrightson. I don't keep on top of all the "current" comic books--I expect the best stuff to get collected in archives, so I wait until then to pay closer attention. So this comes as a total surprise to me, having missed the short series of three issues. Here Bernie left us a wonderful new Frankenstein story, collected here for the first time! And in a bargain-priced format! A grand treat of Victorian horror featuring the further adventures of Mary Shelly's classic monster, as ghoulishly illustrated by Bernie Wrightson, the true master of the macabre! IDW, 2018...More.

THE HAPPY PRINCE AND OTHER STORIES Facsimile of the original 1910 edition. Highly Recommended. By Oscar Wilde. Art by Charles Robinson. While best known for his comedies of the 1890s, including The Importance of Being Earnest, Oscar Wilde was a master of many forms. This grand facsimile reproduction of a rare 1910 edition includes five of his very best fairy tales: "The Happy Prince," "The Nightingale and the Rose," "The Selfish Giant," "The Devoted Friend," and "The Remarkable Rocket." Charles Robinson, one of the most successful artists of the Golden Age, enhances the text with 12 remarkable full-color plates and scores of line drawings: decorated initial caps, illustrated vignettes, and other embellishments. Calla, 2018...More. Item Code: HAPPH Hard Cover, 7x10, 96pg, Text/Partial Color |

ALSO AVAILABLE RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM Facsimile of the legendary 1909 edition. Highly Recommended. By Omar Khayyám. Art by Edmund Dulac. "A Flask of Wine, a Book of Verse — and Thou, Beside me, singing in the Wilderness," is only one of the memorable verses from Edward FitzGerald's translation of poems by the 11th century Persian sage Omar Khayyám. This magnificent version of The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám reproduces the edition published by Hodder & Stoughton in London in 1909, in which the timeless poems are accompanied by full-color images by Golden Age illustrator Edmund Dulac. Critics and collectors have long debated which book represents the peak of Dulac's career, and many agree that his affinity for Persian art makes this gloriously illustrated volume a strong contender. Calla, 2017...More. Item Code: RUBOH Hard Cover - No Dustjacket, 8x11, 160pg, Text/Full Color |

ALSO AVAILABLE THE LOST WORLD By Harry Rountree Highly Recommended. By Sir Author Conan. Art by Harry Rountree.

ALSO AVAILABLE WAR OF THE WORLDS Illustrations by Warwick Goble Highly Recommended. By H.G Wells. Illustrated by Warwick Goble. For the first time since their original publication in Pearson's Magazine, Warwick Goble's illustrations appear in this exquisite hardcover clothbound edition. Combining the magazine's original art with the revised text from the story's subsequent publication in book form, with more than fifty of Goble's black-and-white wash illustrations. Calla, 2015...More. Item Code: WARWH Hard Cover - No Dustjacket, 7x10, 204pg, b&w |
These last two books are both essentially new, original books, although they still are designed to look like the other Calla books, i.e. as if they were published back in 1905. These both use artwork published solely in the original magazine appearances of the stories, never before collected. They remain two of our most popular Calla titles, for that reason. And also because both illustrators, Goble and Rountree, are outstanding and highly respected by knowledgable creators right up to today. |

LIFE BEFORE MAN HURT Highly Recommended. By Zdeněk V. Spinar. Art by Zdeněk Burian. Burroughs fans were introduced to Burian's work through the early pages of ERB-dom, and ultimately in the form of a fine portfolio that publisher Cazedessus issued. Burian was adapting ERB stories in his native country of Czechoslovakia...stunning work. But he also had a long history of doing illustrations of prehistoric creatures, and three volumes of these are today highly collectible. This puts together much of his finest prehistoric art, page after page and in full color. One corner bumped causing light creasing to both covers. Thames & Hudson, 1995. . Note: One corner is moderately bumped causing a light crease to both covers....More. Item Code: LIBEMR Soft Cover, 8x11, 256pg, Partial Color $35.00 |

| This year’s Emerald City Comic-Con just happened, and that means we’ll have the new program book, Monsters and Dames, any time now. Watch for it in a couple, three weeks or so. Or reserve one now [MNST18H $40]. Note price has gone up $5 this year. |
| Meanwhile, back volumes are in VERY short supply, so check them out on our website. We have very small numbers left of 2009 (3 copies), 2012 (4 copies), 2014 Hurt (4 copies), 2015 (14 copies).

The limited edition has gone out of print. One version sports a new cover by Bob Eggleton, the other the original John Coleman Burroughs cover. Each is limited to just 200 copies. We have just six copies of each one left. |
From the same publisher but still in print, as far as I know, is Back to the Stone Age. This is a matching volume with Land of Terror; one with a new Bob Eggleton cover, the other with a John Coleman Burroughs cover. As I mention in the descriptions, The Eggleton is a stone-cold-perfect facsimile of an original Grosset and Dunlap ERB edition—though one was never done. The JCB cover is a facsimile of the ERB Inc. FIRST EDITION. Both are loaded with interior art and lots of extras. |

My buddy Dick Swan, Big Guy’s Comics, turned me onto this and I’m passing it forward. Thanks to Kickstarter and Gofundme programs, a group of actors and dedicated fans produced ELEVEN FREE EPISODES emulating the original Kirk/Spock/Uhura/Scotty Star Treks. They are all new, they are fun, and they are all FREE on Youtube. This is NOT the new CBS series known as Discover. Check them out; if you are undecided, start with Episode 3—its my favorite, hands down, with the parallel universe BAD Kirk and the Enterprise crew. The actor playing Kirk has all his Shatner’s mannerisms down pat and even looks a bit like him. But the breakaway for me is the young Spock. He’s very, very good and gets better each episode. Vintage Paperback Show, March 18, Glendale I'm sorry to report that we don't be exhibiting at this show after all. A bout with the flu set me way behind last month, and something had to give. We will be at the Sacramento Book Fair March 24th, as previously announced, and on April 15th, at Sac-Con —our local comic book show. Hope to see you there. ~Bud |
