WARNER BROS. 100 Years of Story Telling
Highly Recommended. By Mark A. Vieiria. Foreword by Ben Mankiewicz. The history of Warner Bros. is not just the tale of a legendary film studio and its stars, but of classic Hollywood itself, as well as a portrait of America in the last century. It’s a family story of Polish-Jewish immigrants — the brothers Warner — who took advantage of new opportunities in the burgeoning film industry at a time when four mavericks could invent ways of operating, of warding off government regulation, and of keeping audiences coming back for more during some of the nation's darkest days. Stars and stories gave Warner Bros. its distinct identity as the studio where tough guys like Humphrey Bogart and strong women like Bette Davis kept people on the edge of their seats. Running Press, 2023....More.

TEENAGE TUPELO
A mammoth volume dedicated to one of the last underground sexploitation films of the 20th century: a nudie cutie time capsule of art, essays, and reviews, along with photos of the beautiful starlets who appeared in Teenage Tupelo. In 1995 Something Weird Video released this cinematic oddity. Filmmaker (and former Fantagraphics cartoonist) John Michael McCarthy created this Elvis-obsessed, autobiographical bump and grind film. Co-produced by exploitation king David F. Friedman (She Freak, 2000 Maniacs). Memphis instrumental combo Impala provided the score, set to the swaying rhythms of starlet D’Lana Tunnell who plays McCarthy’s mother. The music was produced by legendary Sun records' Roland Janes. Nudity. Fantagraphics, 2023. Mature Readers....More.

2024 Calendars

 


RETRO PIN-UPS 2024 Calendar (Avonside)
Contemporary photographs of contemporary models but recalling the old days with vintage outfits, hair styles and retro settings — and plenty of cleavage, long legs, high heels, and come-hither looks! No nudity, in fact it's all pretty innocent and in good fun. Lots of teasing poses in nylons and sexy outfits, classic pin-up poses in a tub, in cars, with a bike, in the kitchen, or just looking pensive. Avonside, 2023....More.

Item Code: RETP24
12x12, 26pg, Full Color
$14.99
 


RETRO PIN-UPS 2024 Calendar (Gifted)
Recommended. A good variety of vintage pin-up illustrators but artists who haven't been overexposed, such as Elvgren — although he does have three works here. We like the variety of styles and ladies. Classic 1940s and 1950s vintage cheesecake calendar art. Revealing lingerie, girls caught in compromising poses with nylons and garters exposed, or just posing for the viewer in lingerie or bikinis. One full nude, a cowgirl in nylons, a girl with pink bunny ears, hanging wallpaper with a dress caught atop the ladder, legs in the air, swimsuit pose, lingerie, topless in a mirror... Fun, innocent images from a bygone era, upbeat with lots of teasing smiles. Gifted, 2023. Mature Viewers. ...More.

Item Code: RPU24

HOKUSAI 2024 Calendar
Recommended. An unusual selection of work by the master Japanese woodblock artist. Landscapes, mountains, closeups of flowers, trees and a peacock, a long board, racing horsemen, workers carrying loads across a canal, a waterfall... His work is dreamy and evocative, portraying an idealized Japan of the 17th and 18th centuries. Reproduced from richly colored and beautifully designed images, many now iconic. He is our favorite among all the traditional Japanese woodblock artists. Gifted, 2023....More.

Item Code: HOK24

PS Artbooks / Quality Group Heroes

 


BLACKHAWK Volume 9
Collects #44-48, 1951-52. Highly Recommended. Art by Reed Crandall, Paul Gustavson and Dick Dillin. These five new Quality Comics' Blackhawk issues show just why this title was so popular and so long-lived. Reed Crandall provides brilliant covers and at least one lead story each issue, showing the same talent he was using at EC just a year or so after these came out. And the stories of our intrepid squad stay fresh and different with bad girls often leading criminal gangs, dictators, and starting to get a touch of horror tales as comics discovered horror in general. Backup Chop Chop stories by the brilliant Paul Gustavson. PS Artbooks, 2023....More.

Item Code: BLAC09
Soft Cover, 7x10, 196pg, Full Color
$32.99
All but #1 are in stock now. We expect more #1’s shortly.
 


PLASTIC MAN Volume 3
Collects #9-12, 1947-48. Our Highest Recommendation. Featuring four great bi-monthly, 52-page issues with several stories in each, entirely by the great Jack Cole. There was only one Plastic Man and only one Jack Cole. Like Eisner and The Spirit, Cole's work here is some of the very finest of the Golden Age. Plas had his serious moments, but Cole knew his humor and it's always just around the corner on these stories. Just seeing all the things Plas could turn himself into — and how he'd disguise himself as ordinary items, like a fire hydrant or a barber's pole...it's amazing. PS Artbooks, 2023....More.

Item Code: PLAM03
Soft Cover, 7x10, 208pg, Full Color
$32.99
Volumes 1 and 2 are in stock, same price. #4 is coming soon.
 


MILITARY COMICS Volume 4
Collects #13-16, 1942-43. Recommended. Reed Crandall took over the Blackhawk covers and lead story with #12, so here we are treated to his next four brilliant stories. Massive 64-page issues with wonderful backup strips like The Death Patrol by Dave Berg, Destroyer 711 by Al McWilliams, plus work by Chuck Cuidera, Bob Powell, Fred Guardineer (The Blue Tracer), Vernon Henkel (The Sniper), Jack Cole and Ted Blaisdell. X of the Underground, Loops and Banks, Secret War News...There's even a Blackhawk story with three witches, which presages EC's three horror hosts — although Shakespeare may have been the first to feature three witches way back in Macbeth. PS Artbooks, 2023....More.

Item Code: MILC04

EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS AUTHORIZED LIBRARY Volume 21 Tarzan the Magnificent
Recommended. By Edgar Rice Burroughs. New cover and frontispiece by Joe Jusko. Foreword by Wolf Larson. Afterword by Henry G. Franke III. The half-dead American raved of an unknown city...of women warriors ruled by a malignant wizard...of a great diamond, the Gonfal, with strange hypnotic power...of a long-lost English nobleman...of the savage queen who had betrayed her duty and helped him to escape. Tarzan puts little faith into Stanley Wood’s story — until he sees the power of the Gonfal draw the American in spite of himself back into the clutches of the Amazons of Kaji. Then it is that the ape-man becomes once more the implacable hunter — for though he cares nothing for diamonds or lost civilizations, no one may be allowed to harm anyone the Lord of the Jungle has taken under his protection. Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., 2023. Due: Jan....More.

EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS AUTHORIZED LIBRARY Volume 22 Tarzan and the Foreign Legion
Highly Recommended. By Edgar Rice Burroughs. Cover and frontispiece by Joe Jusko. Foreword by Robert B. Zeuschner. Afterword by Henry G. Franke III. A personal favorite of mine, written during World War II and with more modern sensibilities and a more mature ape-man in very different situations outside his own country. - Bud. When an American bomber crashes in the jungles of enemy-held Sumatra, the survivors face the perils of a completely unknown world...and the RAF colonel who flew with them as observer only seems to compound their danger by going mad — stripping to a loincloth and throwing away his weapons except for his knife. But for Colonel John Clayton, Lord Greystoke, the hazards of wild beasts and a remorseless enemy are a familiar and joyously accepted challenge — a chance to return to his true identity of Tarzan of the Apes. Gathering a motley crew of allies of many nations, Tarzan works a terrible vengeance on the occupying Japanese and leads an epic trek to the coast, to a final ocean rendezvous with enemies human and inhuman. Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., 2023. Due: Jan....More.

EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS AUTHORIZED LIBRARY Volume 23 Tarzan and the Madman
Recommended. By Edgar Rice Burroughs. New cover and frontispiece by Joe Jusko. Foreword by Thomas Yeates. Afterword by Henry G. Franke III. The drums boom forth an incredible message from tribe to tribe: Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle, has become an enemy to all, stealing and enslaving their women...as well as the daughter of an English millionaire, who offers a princely reward for her recapture and Tarzan’s death. Certainly her captor told Sandra Pickerall that he was Tarzan...but he also told her he was God... Tarzan follows their trail with one thought in mind — to pursue and destroy the man who has stolen his name and made it infamous in the jungle world he loves. Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., 2023. Due: Jan....More.

EDGAR RICE BURROUGHS AUTHORIZED LIBRARY Volume 24 Tarzan and the Castaways
Recommended. By Edgar Rice Burroughs. Cover and frontispiece by Joe Jusko. Foreword by Joe Jusko. Afterword by Henry G. Franke III. Stranded on an uncharted Pacific island, Tarzan is forced to take command of an ill-sorted party — English aristocrats, a Dutch officer, a woman of doubtful reputation — to ensure their safety from a band of mutineers led by a madman. A lost colony of Mayans, avid for potential victims for their barbarous human sacrifices, only add to their danger. But the Lord of the Jungle has unexpected allies... Cast away with his band is a shipment of African animals unknown to the island, striking terror in the hearts of the Mayans and mutineers alike, but old friends and familiar antagonists to the man brought up among them...Tarzan of the Apes. Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc., 2023. Due: Jan....More.
