Expanded and Updated Edition
2nd and later printings. By Bill Schelly.
This book-length history of Comic Fandom's early years was nominated for an Eisner Award in 1996, and now returns in revised and expanded form.
Includes 40 extra pages, an 8-page color insert, and a brand-new cover by Michael Gilbert.
Schelly's fascinating text tells how it all began in the 1960s: the fanzines, the dealers, the comicons. Also included are over 75 photos, almost 200 gorgeous illustrations by Steve Ditko, Jim Starlin, Jim Steranko, Dave Stevens, R. Crumb, Bernie Wrightson, and an introduction by former editor-in-chief at Marvel Comics, Roy Thomas. Softcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 184 pages, B&W.
NOTE: You might recognize a handsome young devil in a photo of the Texas Trio on page 56. It's none other than Lone Star Comics' very own founder, Buddy Saunders. - Odinson, Lone Star Comics Archivist
Cover price $17.95.
