BARNABY Volume 4 1948-1949. Recommended. By Crockett Johnson. The misadventures of five-year-old Barnaby Baxter and his Fairy Godfather J.J. O'Malley continue. Bumbling but endearing, Mr. O'Malley rarely gets his magic to work even when he consults his Fairy Godfather's Handy Pocket Guide. The true magic of Barnaby resides in its canny mix of fantasy and satire, amplified by the understated elegance of Crockett Johnson's clean, spare art. Fantagraphics, 2020....More. Item Code: BAR04H Hard Cover, 11x7, 388pg, b&w |
On Sale are all three back volumes: 1 $35, $17.50, 2-3 $39.99, $19.99 ea. Act now, I'm not sure if we can get more of these, we have just 5 to 8 copies of each one left at this price. Volume 4 is an especially thick volume, with 388 pages, so this could be the final collection. |
CONAN THE BARBARIAN THE ORIGINAL MARVEL YEARS OMNIBUS Volume 4 Highly Recommended. By Roy Thomas et al. Art by John Buscema et al. Roy Thomas' decade-long original run on Conan The Barbarian ranks as one of the greatest in comic book history, and it was crucial in making Conan an icon in the comics world. Here Roy and his artistic collaborator John Buscema bring the saga of Bêlit and her quest for the crown of Asgulun to a conclusion. It's a tale that will forever change Conan's life. The adventures that follow feature an even more savage Conan, fiercer than ever and truly unbound. Buscema pencils ALL of this work, with inks by Ernie Chan. Marvel, 2020....More.

THE CISCO KID Volume 5 Dailies, 1959-61. Our Highest Recommendation. By Rod Reed. Art by José Luis Salinas. Classic Comics Press continues its reprinting of the complete run of The Cisco Kid with an introduction by John Ordway. While the television show of the Cisco Kid is often spoofed, the opposite is true of this strip itself. It is held in the highest regard, and many veteran comics artists and fans are glad to add this to their library. If you are a fan of Frank Frazetta's 1950s comics work, find out where he was getting his inspiration. Salinas is brilliant at penciling and brush work; detailed, dynamic, exicitng. He can draw humor, danger and adventure, handsome heroes and beautiful women with the very best. Classic Comics Press, 2020....More. Item Code: CIS05 Soft Cover, 8x11, 240pg, b&w $25.95 |

Fans have been asking for this ever since I first began selling comics 50 years ago.

Each daily and Sunday has been beautifully restored by Manuel Caldas. Also included in this volume: an in-depth analysis of Tufts' work onLance by Zoran Djukanovic, biographical information, and more! Tufts was actually emulating Hal Foster's Prince Valiant, right down to the lack of word balloons, an ironic narrator, and brilliantly designed artwork in every panel. This is one of the best Sunday adventure strips you will ever see. Classic Comics Press, 2018....More. Item Code: WARTH Hard Cover, 9x12, 368pg, Full Color |
ALSO AVAILABLE CASEY RUGGLES A Saga of the West Volume 1 Special Sale Price 1949-55. Highly Recommended. By Warren Tufts. Warren Tufts is one those rare artist‘s artists, hugely admired by his fellow creators. Tufts' assistants were another talented list: Al Plastino (Superman artist), Edmond Good, Alex Toth, and the super DC creator Ruben Moreira. Tufts is not so well known to the public today, but this small body of work—and then his next project, Lance— captured devoted admiration from fans AND other creators, for quality stories AND quality artwork. Casey Ruggles is a smart and brave adventurer, in and out of scrapes with nefarious villains and beautiful women. Classic Comics Press, 2018....More.

Another exceptional title from the innovative publisher St. John.

Hollingsworth, Bill Molno, Bob Forgione, Gus Ricca and Bernard Baily. They're all here—witches, vampires, walking corpses, ghosts, ghouls and goblins galore. PS Artbooks, 2017....More.

SILVER AGE CLASSICS OUT OF THIS WORLD Volume 1 Closeout Price! Collects #1-6, 1956-57. Highly Recommended. By Steve Ditko, Vince Alascia et al. Back in the post-EC days of the mid-to-late 1950's and early '60's, Charlton was doing some darned good comics, thanks to ex-EC artists but most especially to Steve Ditko, before he made the move to Marvel. Beginning with issue #3, this was all Steve Ditko, cover to cover, through #6. In the first two issues things were more pure sci-fi, with artwork by Mastroserio, Dick Giordano (who of course moved to DC and eventually became editor-in-chief there), Bill Molno and Charles Nicolas, who was the creator back in the early 1940s of The Blue Beetle. PS Artbooks, 2017....More. Item Code: SAOW01H Hard Cover, 7x10, 216pg, Full Color |
SILVER AGE CLASSICS OUT OF THIS WORLD Volume 2 Closeout Price! Collects #7-10, 1958. Recommended. Art by Steve Ditko, Maurice Whitman, Fred Kida, Sal Trapani et al. Innovative science fiction comics didn't end with EC”EC was doing wonderful work, ACG the occasional story, but Charlton was a hotbed of sci-fi and fantasy, spear-headed by the great Steve Ditko. It might seem a poor man's EC, but led by wonderful covers and lots of stories by Ditko, today this is a stand-out title. Additional artists include Bill Molno, Charles Nicholas, Dick Malmgren, Rocco Mastroserio, Paul Reinman and even Gene Colan. Numbers 7 and 8 were 68-page, fifteen-cent issues—together they boast SIX Ditko stories and two covers. PS Artbooks, 2017....More. Item Code: SAOW02H Hard Cover, 7x10, 216pg, Full Color |
SILVER AGE CLASSICS OUT OF THIS WORLD Volume 3 Closeout Price! Collects #11-16, 1959. Highly Recommended. By Vince Alascia, Steve Ditko, Matt Baker et al. Back in the post-EC days of the mid-to-late 1950's and early '60's, there was really only one place to go for your SF fix when you'd exhausted DC's output for that month: Out of this World, which would of course become synonymous with the work of Steve Ditko. Here we have three stories by him in #11 alone, plus more work in #12 and 16, and three gorgeous covers. Backup stories by Paul Reinman, Alascia, Mastroserio and the other regular Charlton artists. PS Artbooks, 2018....More. Item Code: SAOW03H Hard Cover - No Dustjacket, 7x10, 216pg, Full Color |
PRE-CODE CLASSICS OUT OF THE SHADOWS Volume 1 Closeout Price! Limited, 1,700! Collects #5-10, 1952-53. Highly Recommended. By Alex Toth, Reed Crandall, George Tuska, Grandenetti, Andru, et al. For a minor title, this has an all-star line-up of artists! Standard Comics did not believe in #1 issues—they started all their horror titles with #5. But what titles—these were above-average in both art and story, and good, solid storytelling. Their titles included The Unseen, Adventures into Darkness & and this— each lasted just ten issues or so. All well done E.C. imitations. Alex Toth is brilliant here; Reed Crandall does two stories (noted in his new bio), Jack Katz (The First Kingdom) is bizarre and fun. PS Artbooks, 2017....More. Item Code: PCOS01H Hard Cover, 7x10, 180pg, Full Color |
PRE-CODE CLASSICS OUT OF THE SHADOWS Volume 2 Closeout Price! Limited, 1,700. Collects #10-14, 1953-54. Highly Recommended. By Alex Toth, Mike Sekowsky, Nick Cardy, Ross Andru, Jack Katz, George Roussos et al. Wild stories and outstanding artwork! Four stories by Alex Toth plus a bunch by Mike Sekowsky, who was obviously influenced by Toth and was doing work so close sometimes it's hard to identify! Plus bizarre, over-the-top horror and beautiful women by Jack Katz, future Wonder Woman artist Ross Andru, fine work by George Roussos, and Tarzan comic strip artist John Celardo. Plus we have a cannibalism story, a cool classic spider cover and more fun. PS Artbooks, 2017....More. Item Code: PCOS02H Hard Cover, 7x10, 180pg, Full Color |

Fresh from the fear-fraught fifties come the first seven issues of Trojan Comics' Beware, dragging along a whole bunch of festering corpses by way of an artists' assemblage that includes The Stainless Steel Rat himself, the great Harry Harrison, plus work by the fine Sid Check, Gerald Altman, Vince Napoli, Henry Kiefer, Roy Krenkel, Al Gordon, Leo Hagler, William Zeller, Albert Tyler, A.C. Hollingsworth, and Myron Fass. Plus severed-head panels and corpses on the cover (an SOTI issue), etc. PS Artbooks, 2018....More. Item Code: PCB01H Hard Cover, 7x10, 256pg, Full Color |
PRE-CODE CLASSICS BEWARE Volume 2 Hardcover Closeout Price! Collects #8-14, 1954-55. Recommended. Art by Sid Check, Frazetta, Jay Disbrow, Myron Fass and Harry Harrison. Frazetta puts in a rare appearance, collaborating with Sid Check on an amazing cover. There are also stories of "a heart torn out," "blood drainage" and that's only what Overstreet is pointing out. One of the weirder titles of the time, as the filled newsstands meant publishers had to outdo the competition with bloodier, darker, stranger stories of horror. Sid Check provides two exceptional stories here and also Jay Disbrow, who is clunky but always fun. PS Artbooks, 2018....More. Item Code: PCB02H Hard Cover, 7x10, 256pg, Full Color |
PRE-CODE CLASSICS GHOSTLY WEIRD STORIES Volume 1 Closeout Price! Collects #120-124, 1953-54. Recommended. Art by Jay Disbrow, L. B. Cole, Jack Kamen et al. The great Jay Disbrow (who died in 2017) is featured memorably in this often overlooked and certainly unsung gem, appearing within wonderfully weird covers by L.B. Cole and alongside EC stalwart Jack Kamen (jungle and horror comics reprinted from pre-EC days). Disbrow does his wildest sci-fi and horror, and Cole provides killer covers that have become classics. The balance are reprinted stories from Fox titles, including three Jo-Jo's and a Rulah story, The Mask from Capt. Flight, and Torpedo Man, an unusual aquatic hero drawn by the great Rudy Palais.

MAC RABOY Master of the Comics The first-ever book on this hugely talented artist. Our Highest Recommendation. By Roger Hill. Introduction by Roy Thomas. Beginning with his WPA etchings during the 1930s, Mac Raboy struggled to survive the Great Depression and eventually found his way into the comics. He perfected his art style on early stories of Dr. Voodoo, Zorro The Mystery Man, Bulletman, Spy Smasher, (all for Fawcett), The Green Lama and, finally, his crowning achievement, Captain Marvel Jr. Raboy went on to illustrate the Flash Gordon Sunday newspaper strip, and left behind a legacy of meticulous perfection.

ART NOUVEAU MÜNCHEN, WIEN, PRAHA Hurt Highly Recommended. By Thomas Hauffe. Between 1890 and the beginning of the First World War, a new international style developed in architecture and design. Following the example of the English Arts and Crafts movement, the representatives of Art Nouveau turned against the eclectic excesses of the Victorian era, embracing organic forms, plant ornamentation and functional free-flowing architecture. This volume shows the highlights of European Art Nouveau as it was interpreted, everywhere a bit differently, in Germany, Austria, Bohemia, Hungary, Italy and Switzerland. Konemann, 2020.

AMAZING FANTASY OMNIBUS Hurt Collects Amazing Adventures #1-6; Amazing Adult Fantasy #7-14; Amazing Fantasy #15, 1961-62. Highly Recommended. By Stan Lee, Steve Ditko, Jack Kirby et al. At the dawn of the Silver Age, Stan and the gang were offering readers a cadre of ten-ton terrors, from Torr to Manoo to Monsteroso — along with weird tales of witchcraft, Martians and Dr. Druid. And Lee and Ditko started their all-new more mature storytelling, featuring aliens, time travel, ghosts and atomic nightmares! Ditko's lushly illustrated stories set a new standard for comic art, and Lee raised the bar with his powerful, thoughtful scripts. And, oh, in the last issue of AF they created Spider-Man.

MARVEL MASTERS OF SUSPENSE Stan Lee & Steve Ditko Omnibus Volume 2 Hurt Completes the two-volume set. Highly Recommended. By Stan Lee. Art by Steve Ditko. Before Spider-Man and Doctor Strange, Steve Ditko applied his incomparable art and storytelling mastery to taut suspense-thrillers, cast with nervous-eyed dreamers and sweaty-palmed schemers, none of whom make it out without getting their just desserts. Here you get every single one of Ditko's stories of suspense for Marvel (and Atlas) in two beautifully restored Omnibus volumes. From his very first Marvel work in 1956 through to his last five-page masterpiece, every Silver Age tale is collected here. Marvel, 2020. Condition: Bumps to corners....More.

By David Spurlock. Afterword by Frank Frazetta Jr. This book began by reviving the original million-selling 1970s mass market art book, Fantastic Art of Frank Frazetta. Then it was expanded and revised to include twice as many images, variants of paintings, prelim sketches and color roughs, and more...It also now presents them at a much larger coffee-table book size of 10.5 x 14.5 inches.
