| THE ART OF FRANK CHO A Twenty-Year Retrospective Signed
Exclusively available from the publisher and us. Signed illustrated bookplate! Our Highest Recommendation. This edition is ONLY available from the publisher. By special arrangement, we are the only retailer getting copies, to which we've added a bookplate signed by Frank, with a special drawing taken from the book. Frank Cho and Flesk have partnered again to create a big, career-spanning art book. It features over 300 pages and includes over 400 pieces of art, his first full career overview. This features work from early student days, personal paintings and a section on his creator-owned properties like Liberty Meadows and Brandy, followed by an extensive overview of his adventure and superhero work for Marvel and DC on major characters from Harley Quinn to Batwoman. Frank provides fresh commentary throughout to reveal great insight into his art and his creative process. An interview covers his recent projects. Flesk, 2020...More.

A storytelling chapter is highlighted by an all-new, eleven-page adventure premiering Cho's Jungle Queen. The majority of the art shown here has been created specifically for this collection This is as much an art book, beautifully displaying Frank's work, as it is a how-to-book.

One of our best sellers this year is this bargain-priced book. We had signed copies—when we ran out of those, we added a signed bookplate. But due to Frank's very busy schedule, we ran out of these and went back to just regular unsigned copies. Now we have another batch of these, and each one is signed once again in the book itself—he did them at the same time as he signed all of our bookplates for the Frank Cho Retrospective, above. Take warning—publisher John Fleskes has just a small number for us left after this batch is gone. |

THE LIFE AND ART OF MEAD SCHAEFFER
Limited, 900. Our Highest Recommendation. By David Apatoff. Mead Schaeffer was one of the foremost illustrators of the "romantic era" of American fiction, working in much the same style as N.C. Wyeth and Dean Cornwell, who were both mentors to him, illustrating top-selling adventure books and magazine stories, and influenced by the great Howard Pyle. He worked for decades producing atmospheric and evocative illustrations and his romantic, swashbuckling, and theatrical paintings ultimately earned him a spot in the Society of Illustrators Hall of Fame. In the 1930s and during World War II his style changed to a more realistic but equally superb one...and he was featured on cover after cover of major magazines. Illustrated Press, 2020...More. Item Code: LIFMSH Hard Cover, 9x12, 224pg, Full Color $44.95 |
All advance orders for this shipped out this week, thank you! We also just got in a nice batch of 12 out of print Illustration Magazine back issues, see them all here. Click on the banner above for all items from The Illustrated Press, and click here to see just the books. |

Created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in the pages of Fantastic Four, here are the first amazing issues of the Surfer's own title, with Lee's socially conscious writing and Kirby's mind-blowing cosmic concepts -- joined by the one and only John Buscema!

Jack Kirby's mind-boggling "Fourth World" saga is collected in an Absolute Edition, his entire runs on these four series in a single volume. These comics spanned galaxies, from the streets of Metropolis to the far-flung twin worlds of New Genesis and Apokolips, as cosmic-powered heroes and villains struggle for supremacy, and the world-conquering Darkseid takes on the heroes of Earth. After co-creating much of the Marvel Universe, Kirby moved to DC Comics in 1970, to write and illustrate four interlocking series known collectively as "The Fourth World," considered the magnum opus of his solo work.

THE MARKED Volume 1 Fresh Ink

SUPERMAN The War Years 1938-1945
New lower price! 20+ Complete Stories--and far more! Highly Recommended. By Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster. Edited by Roy Thomas. Superman: The War Years 1938-1945 shows how his introduction at the start of World War II lifted the spirits of a country and brought people the hero they so desperately needed. And began the entire super hero explosion in comic books that continues today. This begins with stories from Action Comics #1 and 2, and Superman #1, and continues with stories from Action #22 and 23, Superman #2, 8, 10, 12, 18, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, and 34, and from World's Finest #15. Chartwell, 2015...More. Item Code: SUPWYH Hard Cover, 9x11, 304pg, Full Color $24.99 $19.99 |
This isn't a typical discount for a sale book, but this was first published as a kind of sale book, what we call a “promotional” book, where the price is purposely low—a hardcover for just $25. But we got a deal on these, so we were able to reduce the price a bit more. It's a great collection, trust me. We have only three copies left of the matching volume, Batman: The War Years [BATWYH. $24.99]. The third book in this series, Wonder Woman: The War Years, was the first to sell out. |

SPARRING WITH GIL KANE Debating The History and Aesthetics of Comics
Closeout Price! Highly Recommended. Art by Gil Kane and others. Introduction by Gary Groth. Preface by Howard Chaykin. Gil Kane drew every major comic book character in his 50-year career — from Spider-Man and the Hulk to Superman and Batman — and conceived and drew independent “graphic novels” long before the term had any meaning to the larger public. He was also a fascinating raconteur and a formidable analyst, critic, and theorist of comics, a medium he loved. Included in this collection are interviews Kane conducted with a wide array of cartoonists: newspaper strip artists such as Hal Foster (Prince Valiant) and Walt Kelly (Pogo); fellow comic book creators such as Harvey Kurtzman; underground cartoonists Robert Crumb and Jack Jackson; and the literary critic Donald Phelps. Fantagraphics, 2018...More. Item Code: SPARG Soft Cover, 8x9, 308pg, Text/b&w $22.99 $11.99 |

The Rascals are back in another collection of full-color vintage comic book adventures created by the legendary Walt Kelly (Pogo)--including a four-issue storyline (almost a graphic novel!) in which Froggie and the Gang (including Julip the Goat) ship out with Professor Gravy on his showboat for an engagement downriver, which results (of course) in a series of action-paced adventures involving fisticuffs, gunfire, fireworks, and horse thieves. Fantagraphics, 2010...More. Item Code: OG04 Soft Cover, 7x9, 118pg, Full Color $14.99 $9.99 |

JLA By Grant Morrison Omnibus
Art by Howard Porter. In 1996, Grant Morrison--the visionary writer of The Invisibles, Animal Man, Doom Patrol and more--joined forces with artist Howard Porter to relaunch the Justice League of America in JLA.

Mature ReadersWe haven't seen a new collection from Royo in some time, but this makes up for the wait. Two hardcover volumes in an illustrated slipcase. One caveat—These come from Italy, and in transit most of our copies had minor bumps to the cardboard slipcase. We felt it would be fruitless to try and get perfect copies from overseas—it's hard enough lately from domestic publishers. So these are as-is, almost as-new! Also by Royo, we have a previous slipcased set, 3 volumes, 2003, Prohibited [RB1150. $150] and the Luis Royo Batgirl Statue — one copy left [LRBATG.

Adventureman by Matt Fraction and Terry & Rachael Dodson Reading the first issue makes me want to handle the comic. But handling $3.99 comics doesn't work for us! So check this out at your local comic store, from Image Comics. Cross your fingers like I have, that we'll have a collection soon. It's AMAZING and it's 64—yes, 64 pages of comics!!

Secondary Superheroes Review by Michelle Nolan I mentioned this above along with the book...but if you missed it, please check out Michelle Nolan's fine review of this equally fine book. The $75 price tag put me off initially, but rarely have I seen more information packed into one volume. Here's an excerpt: ...you may well be basically tantalized enough by the almost overwhelming wealth of information in Mougin's book to seek out the original comics or at least reprints. Early in 1965, however, neither Bud nor I were even remotely aware of almost all the dozens upon dozens of characters Mougin covers. It took both of us several years, the better part of a decade, to learn the basic information Mougin presents in one highly informative volume. Rather than produce a dry, alphabetical compendium, Mougin presents a remarkable amount of information the right way, indeed the best way, while using characters from major publishers DC, Marvel, Quality and Fawcett to provide insightful context. The first 13 chapters include one chapter each on the definitely secondary but still certainly important companies -- Centaur, Fox, Harvey, MLJ, Nedor, Lev Gleason, Novelty, Hillman, Prize, Street & Smith, Columbia, Holyoke, Ace and Chesler.
|
Here's an example about just one chapter: One of my favorite Golden Age companies, Lev Gleason Comics, is lovingly detailed in Chapter 6. Although characters like Silver Streak and Pat Patriot provide colorful examples of early Golden Age storytelling, Mougin shows why Daredevil and Crimebuster had their own best-selling titles for a long time. |
 |
Mostly written by Gleason editor Charles Biro, Chuck Chandler (Crimebuster) in Boy Comics along with Daredevil and his kid gang, The Little Wise Guys, in Daredevil Comics were vividly portrayed in what Mougin shows to be some of the goriest superhero stories of the Golden Age. But after World War II, Crimebuster and Daredevil each spent several years starring in possibly the most socially responsible of all hero stories, taking on conditions that spurred crime and juvenile delinquency. The 14th chapter is fittingly titled Everybody Else. Off-hand, I could not find a single super hero ignored from the companies so thoroughly covered in the first 13 chapters. That's saying something, because I have been among the most avid of comics historians for more than 50 years. And if Lou forgot anyone in Everybody Else, well, I wouldn't worry about it. If you read one book on old comic books this year, you could not go wrong with this volume. You will also find compelling the dozens of cover reproductions of comic books most readers will be seeing for the first time.

The Big Tease by Bruce Timm Okay, if you read this far, here's the payoff. The new Bruce Timm book, The Big Tease, a Naughty and Nice Collection, also came in this week. Diamond just last week announced this, so it will not be in comic shops for at least two months. This week was so packed with great new books, we decided to feature Bruce next week. But you can tack it onto your order NOW, it's here. Independence Day We will be closed tomorrow in observance of the Independence Day Holiday. Today we were able to ship out all orders placed before 2:00pm pacific time, and earlier this week we shipped all pre-orders for Frank Cho, The Big Tease, Mead Schaeffer and Berserk Deluxe Volume 5. Thank you for your continued support, and we hope you have a happy and safe holiday! ~Bud |
