PULP POWER The Shadow, Doc Savage and The Art of The Street & Smith Universe
Our Highest Recommendation. By Neil McGinness with Dan Didio. Foreword by Frank Miller. A brilliant book, the most comprehensive ever devoted to just one pulp publisher. And what a choice, S&S was the most successful of all pulp houses, creating The Shadow, Doc Savage, Detective Story, Nick Carter, The Avenger... Packed with wonderful art from original paintings plus rare interior artwork. Frank Miller’s intro is a gem, where he talks about discovering James Bama’s Doc Savage paperback covers that inspired his own work. This is rare glimpse into the pre-war pulp explosion, a period of bold action and adventure storytelling that directly inspired the creation of comic book superheroes. In more than 500 novels written between 1930 and 1940, The Shadow, Doc Savage, and the Street & Smith universe of characters captivated a generation of readers. Packed with wonderful cover art and much more, telling the success story of the most popular hero pulps ever. Abrams, 2022. ...More.

SCRIBBLINGS 8 with Mandy: Signed
Signed! Highly Recommended. By Dean Yeagle. After a three year hiatus for Covid, an entirely new collection of wonderful images. Mandy goes to a nude French beach in an amazing 24-page story that is a delight. The second half of the book is the usual mix of finished full color drawings, studies and offbeat subjects, including a nude Dejah Thoris and a nude Poison Ivy, "I Am Not Harley (Quinn)," Mandy in and out of clothes, trolls, and rare animation drawings. Lots of delightful nudity. Caged Beagle, 2022. Mature Readers. ...More.

Edgar Rice Burroughs

 


I AM A BARBARIAN Created by Edgar Rice Burroughs Signed Limited
Signed & limited, 600. Bookplate signed by Thomas Simmons (adaptor), Mike Dubisch (artist) and L. Jamal Walton (letterer). Bookplate limited to 250. Introduction by James Sullos, President, ERB Inc. Custom gold foil-imprinted slipcase. This is an uncommon "historical fiction" set in ancient Rome, written in 1941 but not published until 1967, now adapted into a Sunday Page format and first published online on the ERB website. It tells the story of a young man’s courage in the face of cruel adversity, and of his tragic love for a beautiful Belgian slave girl.

TARZAN AND THE FOREST OF STONE Hardcover
A brand-new standalone novella by critically acclaimed author Jeffrey J. Mariotte. This thrilling tale is set during the classic canon directly after the events of Edgar Rice Burroughs' Tarzan and the Lion Man. After Tarzan departs Southern California following a visit with a friend, bandits mysteriously dressed as cowboys straight out of the Old West waylay his train and make off with a precious Native American artifact — taking the daughter of the relic's owner hostage in the process. Now Tarzan must set off on foot in pursuit of the criminals, making his way across the American Southwest, a land as different from his jungle homeland as can be imagined. ERB, Inc., 2022....More.

SUPERGIRL Woman of Tomorrow
Collects #1-8. Highly Recommended. By Tom King. Art by Bilquis Evely. A beautifully drawn adventure in a style reminding us of Gary Gianni, with fine detailed pen work. And it all takes place far from Earth — it's a fantasy adventure on other worlds, more like Dune or Foundation than the typical Supergirl story. Wherever she goes, people only see Kara through the lens of Superman’s fame and she's sick of it. But now an alien girl seeks her out for a vicious mission—her world has been destroyed, and the bad guys are still out there. She wants revenge, and if Supergirl doesn’t help her, she’ll do it herself, whatever the cost. Bonus character sketches and eight wonderful variant covers by top names. DC Comics, 2022....More.

ZATANNA The Jewel of Gravesend
Zatanna's not your typical New Yorker. She walks her giant rabbit on a leather leash down the boardwalk, lives in a colossal architectural wonder known as the Golden Elephant, had her first kiss in the Haunted HellGate ride—and wouldn't have it any other way. But the time for having fun in Luna Park comes to an end when a mystic's quest for a powerful jewel unravels everything Zatanna thought she knew about herself and her beloved neighborhood. Mysteries and magic surround her as she reveals the truth about her family's legacy, and confronts the illusion that has been cast over her entire life. DC Comics, 2022....More.

Item Code: ZATJG

Guts the Black Swordsman and company prepare to leave the port of Vritannis, only to have their way blocked by an army of abominations led by a powerful Kushan sorcerer. Even Guts’ accursed Berserker armor may not be enough to stem the bestial tide . . . especially when faced by the leviathan astral form of the malefic Kushan Emperor! Dark Horse, 2022. Mature readers. ...More.

New Printing. Collects the first Scrooge adventures, 1952-Our Highest Recommendation. By Carl Barks. Introduction by George Lucas. After the occasional cameo appearance in duck stories, this features the first defining Scrooge story and three more wonderful full length adventures, the first four to star Scrooge (along with Donald and the boys). First, Scrooge’s plan to hide his money in a lake goes terribly wrong in "Poor Old Man".

Art Instruction / Art Books

 


THE STYLE OF LOISH Finding Your Artistic Voice
Our Highest Recommendation. By Lois van Baarle (Loish). This is very much an art book doubling as an instructional book. Loish's work is a joy to look at; her girls are beautiful, sexy and vital. She'll be one of several modern creators to be featured in an upcoming Flesk art book. Meanwhile, her previous collections in 2016 and 2018 have sold 85,000 copies. This new book bursts with brand new, specially commissioned art that provides a unique opportunity to understand the foundations of Loish’s style. She explores (and narrates) her own style through creating volume, choosing color, establishing flow, and the ideas and subjects themselves. 3dtotal Publishing, 2022. ...More.

ALL AMERICAN ADS OF THE 70S
Back in Print. Highly Recommended. By Steven Heller. From Frank Frazetta paintings to psychedelic imagery, Playboy style nudes to beautiful couples in the latest cars and fashions, here is a wide-ranging snapshot of top-tier advertisements for the decade. As television and other media began to compete for advertising dollars, new ideas were incorporated into a post-hippie world where disco clashed with punk, and social consciousness, health and environmental awareness went head-to-head with the Me Generation.

News & Notes

 

Spectrum Quarterly #2 is here!

We now have this in stock along with the limited edition bookplates, signed by Donato Giancola and limited to 300 numbered copies. It all came together after this week’s eblast was finalized, so we’ll feature it next week. But you can order it now [SPQ02. $25.00]. #1 is still available (sans bookplate) but may be getting close to being out of print [SPQ01. $25.00].

Overstreet 52 Hero Initiative Mike Grell Cover

Pictured and mentioned last week, this has now arrived. Mike Grell Batman/The Arrow cover [CB52HH. $44.95]. We’re still awaiting our follow-up order of more Horror Host hardcovers, but all other editions as well as the Big Big editions are in stock now. NOTE: All interior covers shown throughout the Overstreet Price Guide are now in full color! For decades, every page of Overstreet prices had three selected covers along the top—but always in black and white. They are all now in full color, which I think is a big plus. Very cool!

The Art of Luis Garcia

I’m afraid with our trip north last month, I’d fallen behind on editing descriptions and adding recommendations. I’m all caught up now…and one book that got short shrift was this one. Once I saw it, I added a Highly Recommended — and also a Mature Readers tag, due to quite a few (excellent) nudes.

Garcia is another of the Spanish artists who, like Enri, Maroto and Sanjulian, hit the comic scene in the 1970s and 80s and went to work for Warren on Vampirella, Creepy and Eerie. His work is outstanding and this is a handsome tribute [ARTLGH. $39.99, $36.99]. Here’s more devoted to the Spanish Artists.

Judge Dredd by Brian Bolland Apex Edition

These sold out before publication; our copies came in this week but every one is spoken for. The publisher has announced a second Artist’s Edition, this one devoted to Mike McMahon, best known for Judge Dredd and 2000 AD work. We’ll list this shortly.

Not quite here but expected momentarily is the Heroes Initiative edition with a special new Batman & Green Arrow cover by Mike Grell [CB52HH. $44.95]. This is limited to 500. Last year, the cover for this edition by Linsner turned out to be the best-selling of all the Overstreet variants! This year, I think it’s going to be the EC Horror Hosts, that’s a fun one. In fact, we’re temporarily out of the Hardcover version of Horror Hosts but more are expected momentarily, perhaps by the time you read this.


THE BIG! BIG! OVERSTREET COMIC BOOK PRICE GUIDE 52nd Edition Black Hood
Highly Recommended. Cover by Rick Burchett.This oversized, limited edition version usually sells out first!

Also includes grading definitions, glossary, Overstreet's Market Report, Top 100 and Top 10 comics in all categories, and prices realized on Key Books over the last ten years.

2023 Calendars

In July yet! Well, no fear of them selling out yet. I particularly like the two I marked Highly Recommended.



GEORGE R.R. MARTIN THE WORLD OF FIRE & BLOOD 2023 Calendar
Plus bonus fold-out poster. Highly Recommended. A stunning calendar featuring never-before-seen illustrations of the Targaryen civil war, the the first-ever illustations focused exclusively on material from the #1 New York Times bestseller Fire & Blood, the inspiration for the upcoming HBO series House of the Dragon. The Dance of the Dragons is the most infamous period in Westerosi history, in which two legitimate claimants for the Iron Throne, along with their supporters -- and their dragons -- fought for the right to sit that legendary chair. Bantam, 2022. More

KAWASE HASUI 2023 Calendar
Highly Recommended. One of modern Japan's most prominent artists, Kawase Hasui is known for atmospheric prints of Japanese architecture and landscape. A blaze of maple leaves announces autumn at Oirase Gorge, Towada, and gentle snowfall speaks quietly of winter at a temple in Izumo province. Hasui was also influenced by Western realistic art, particularly photography, and in concert with the opening of Japan's cultural and political borders, his imagery reflected an increased emphasis on shading and linear perspective. Hasui created more than 600 woodblock prints, 12 of which are collected in this wall calendar. Pomegranate, 2022. More

INTERPLANETARY VACATIONS 2023 Calendar
Highly Recommended. Our favorite calendar yet this year! One small step for man, and one giant leap into the worlds of tomorrow through wonderfully imaginative interstellar travel posters. Each unique destination (Titan, Europa, Enceladus, Kepler-186f, Venus, Mars, Ceres, Trappist-1) is inspired by a different exoplanet -- all designed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) for the series "Visions of the Future." The project reminds us that we are the architects of our own destiny, and that these far-flung, dreamy galaxies could become real vacation locales in the far future. Pomegranate, 2022. More

THE ART OF DANIEL MERRIAM 2023 Calendar
Recommended. Very popular year after year, with wonderful images spread over his career, from 1994 to 2020. Dive into worlds of fantastic creatures and Victorian architecture with Daniel Merriam's surrealist art. From tightrope-walking cats to hot-air balloons drifting over choppy shores, and surral fantasy castles filled with mysterious lights and curious stories...Merriam's romantic works combine adventure and whimsy in each scene.

ALPHONSE MUCHA 2023 Calendar
Recommended. Alphonse Mucha's iconic posters and advertising pieces remain some of the most recognizable art from the late 19th century. Producing lithographs advertising everything from champagne to theater productions, his portraiture of glamorous women draped in flowing gowns and pastel florals helped to define the Art Nouveau movement.
