    This is the George Evans cover featuring art from ACES HIGH #4. GEORGE EVANS REMEMBERED! EC legend George Evans passed away recently, and this issue Comic Book Marketplace pays tribute to this consummate professional artist.

DETECTIVES, INC. MOVIE! He wrote some of the most influential Black Panther stories ever. He added dimension to Killraven. He also drove his editors nuts. More than a quarter century ago, Don McGregor was at the forefront of the creator rights movement. Eclipse published McGregor's Sabre in 1978 - the same year Will Eisner released A Contract With God - and two years later followed with Detectives, Inc. illustrated by Marshall Rogers.

In the old days, studios knocked out comics left and right and produced the Golden Age of comics. Now CrossGen Comics has revived this old system and they're using it to develop a whole new universe. We'll take a brief look at how they're updating the tried-and-true methods of days gone by for the 21st century. ALSO IN THIS ISSUE ? Expanded Market Reports ? Nolan's Notebook ?
