1st printing. Jack Cole was well known in the 1950's for his work on crime and horror titles, and for his satire in the pages of Hugh Hefner's Playboy Magazine. But, this graphically inventive cartoonist's best known creation is the stretchable and off-centered super hero known as Plastic Man. In this edition is collected some of Cole's most energetic and extraordinary work. Also included is an homage to Cole and his creation by Pulitzer Prize-winning writer and cartoonist Art Spiegelman and renowned graphic designer Chip Kidd. Softcover, 136 pages, full color. NOTE: Tragically, in 1958 Cole unexpectedly took his own life. It is a subject Cole's friend, Hugh Hefner, discusses in the mock-documentary "Comic Book: The Movie" with interviewer Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker). - Odinson, Lone Star Comics Archivist Cover price $19.95.
