    Life and Art of Dave Cockrum HC (2022 TwoMorrows) Limited Edition 1-1ST


    (see more images)

    LIMITED HARDCOVER EDITION with custom endpapers - JUST 500 COPIES!

    1st printing.

    By Gle Cadigan. Art and cover by Dave Cockrum. Introduction by Alex Ross.

    From the letters pages of Silver Age comics to his 2021 induction into the Will Eisner Hall of Fame, the career of Dave Cockrum started at the bottom and then rose to the top of the comic book industry.

    Beginning with his childhood obsession with comics and continuing through his years in the Navy, The Life and Art of Dave Cockrum follows the rising star from fandom (where he was one of the "Big Three" fanzine artists) to pro-dom, where he helped revive two struggling comic book franchises: the Legion of Super-Heroes and the X-Men. A prolific costume designer and character creator, his redesigns of the Legion and his introduction of X-Men characters Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, and Thunderbird (plus his design of Wolverine's alter ego, Logan) laid the foundation for both titles to become best-sellers. His later work on his own property, The Futurians, as well as childhood favorite Blackhawk and T.H.U.N.D.E.R Agents, plus his five years on Soulsearchers and Company, cemented his position as an industry giant.

    Featuring artwork from fanzines, unused character designs, and other rare material, this is THE comprehensive biography of the legendary comic book artist, whose influence is still felt on the industry today! Written by Glen Cadigan (The Legion Companion, The Titans Companion Volumes 1 and 2, Best of the Legion Outpost) with an introduction by Alex Ross.

    Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 160 pages, full color.

    1st printing. I can express something [with animals] that is different from what I put into my work about humans... I can put more nonsense, more satire and fantasy into the animals... — R. Crumb Created by an adolescent R. Crumb in the late 1950s, Fritz the Cat rose to fame — along with his creator — during the underground comix revolution of the 1960s, and remains Crumbs most well-known character and an internationally recognized icon of 1960s culture. Fritz is a feline, freewheeling chiseler who allowed Crumb to express some of his most acidic commentary on American culture. Tragicomedy, farce and satire all rolled into one, The Life and Death of Fritz the Cat chronicles the very best of Fritz's adventures from his early days as an idealistic college student to his ultimate fate as a jaded, burned-out superstar, including Crumbs infamous send-off of the character in the wake of Ralph Bakshis animated feature film, an experience and project that completely dissatisfied Crumb. Finally collected in a single volume, these Fritz stories are a funny, insightful, authentic record of a tumultuous period in American life, with humor and compassion by the most well-respected cartoonist of all time. Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 96 pages, B&W. Mature Readers Cover price $19.99.

    Life of Che HC (2022 Fantagraphics) An Impressionistic Biography 1-1ST


    (see more images)

    1st printing.

    Written by Hector German Oesterheld. Art and cover by Alberto Breccia and Enrique Breccia. Translated by Mena.

    Life of Che is one of the most anticipated entries in Fantagraphics' The Alberto Breccia Library. Originally released as part of a graphic biography series in January 1969, it came out in Argentina only a year after Ernesto "Che" Guevara had died and reached an audience beyond comics readers. In the 1970s, the military government raided its publisher, destroying the means to reprint the book. It was a lost comic until a publisher in Spain restored it in 1987 - and never translated into English.

    Until now.

    The book begins in Bolivia in 1967, then flashes back through Che's life - his childhood, his radicalizing motorcycle trip with Alberto Granado, his taking up of arms in Guatemala, his meeting with Fidel Castro, and his subsequent military and political maneuvers, ending in a fade-out to his death. Alberto Breccia and his son, Enrique, drew Life of Che. Enrique draws the Bolivia passages in a woodcut style, while Alberto depicts the flashbacks in his trademark, expressionistic black-and-white. It is primarily set in the field and with the people.

    Héctor Germán Oesterheld (The Eternaut) blends his authorial voice with Che's first-person. Life of Che is imbued with a sense of immediacy, as both Che and, eventually, Oesterheld would meet their ends by a military government backed by the American CIA. As Pablo Turnes writes in his afterword, it is "the testament of someone consciously marching toward his revolutionary death."

    Story and art by Robert Grossman.

    From an artist who reveled in illustrating "the un-illustratable," a historical graphic novel based on the "Great Moon Hoax," the most successful newspaper hoax ever. In 1835, New York newspaper The Sun published a series of six articles declaring the discovery of life-and even civilization--on the Moon, which the paper attributed to the famous contemporary astronomer Sir John Herschel. According to The Sun, the lunar inhabitants included unicorns, bison, bipedal tail-less beavers, and intelligent humanoids with bat-like wings.

    Life on the Moon is a full-length graphic novel capturing this mythical world. Creator Robert Grossman said the book is set in a time when "many of the signal achievements of the 19th Century still lay well in the future, Andrew Jackson was president, the steamboat was the summit of technology, and news traveled slowly." The unfettered novel includes real historical figures such as P.T. Barnum, Jean Jacques Audubon, Lorenzo Da Ponte, Charles Goodyear, and Edgar Allan Poe.

    1st printing. Collects Justice League: The Nail (1998) #1-3 and Justice League of America: Another Nail (2004) #1-3. Written by Alan Davis. Art and cover by Alan Davis and Mark Farmer.

    Synopsis: ¿Y si los Kent no hubieran encontrado la nave de Superman por una circunstancia tan mundana como un neumático pinchado? La Liga de la Justicia de América habría salido adelante sin su principal referente. Pero ahora que hay un enemigo misterioso al acecho y Batman va a quedar fuera de combate, la presencia del Hombre de Acero no les vendría nada mal. Alan Davis es uno de los dibujantes más aplaudidos del cómic de superhéroes, y también ha ejercido como guionista en obras como JLA: El clavo y JLA: Otro clavo, las dos espectaculares miniseries que recopila este volumen y en las que Davis colabora con Mark Farmer, su entintador habitual. La Edad de Plata de DC Comics ha influido en numerosos autores actuales, incluido Alan Davis, que se sumerge en dicha época para mostrarnos la alineación más clásica de la JLA y de aliados como los Metal Men. El clavo es una forma idónea de leer a los superhéroes de siempre con un estilo contemporáneo. English Translation: What if the Kents hadn't found Superman's ship because of a circumstance as mundane as a flat tyre? The Justice League of America would have gotten by without their main point of reference. But now that there's a mysterious enemy lurking and Batman is about to be knocked out, the Man of Steel's presence wouldn't hurt. Alan Davis is one of the most acclaimed cartoonists in superhero comics, and has also been a writer on works such as JLA: The Nail and JLA: Another Nail, the two spectacular miniseries collected in this volume, in which Davis collaborates with Mark Farmer, his regular inker. The Silver Age of DC Comics has influenced many current authors, including Alan Davis, who delves into that era to show us the most classic line-up of the JLA and allies such as the Metal Men. The Nail is a great way to read the superheroes of old in a contemporary style.

Fresh out of prison for an arson conviction, clueless 20-yearold Billy Bonney finds himself drifting through the seedy and unsavory world of cut-rate moviemaking, even more out of place amongst his peers than he felt as a teen six years earlier whenhe got busted. Following his brother to the sets of grade B and exploitation 1970s Hollywood seems like a path of least resistance, until he accidentally lands a job as a handler to a has-been actor.

When the Light of Lealand falls and Kest's Feather Knights turn their attention next to the seaside city of Rinn, Bea and Cad are desperate to find a solution.

    But when their time with Lorgon presents more questions than answers about the extinction of their sun, Bea and Cad must decide what's more important: stopping Kest or uncovering the truth.
