Story and art by Tom Scioli.

This sweeping, full-color comic book biography tells the complete life story of Jack Kirby, co-creator of some of the most enduring super-heroes and villains of the twentieth century for Marvel Comics, DC Comics, and more.

Tom Scioli breathes visual life into Kirby's life story, from his days growing up during the Great Depression to his time on the frontlines of World War II and on to his world-changing collaborations at Marvel with Stan Lee. Just as every great superhero needs a villain to overcome, Kirby's story also includes his struggles to receive the recognition and compensation that he believed his work deserved.

Readers can experience the life and times of a comics titan through the medium that made him famous.

Includes Art Print - 1st printing. Cover by Denys Cowan, Bill Sienkiewicz and Elizabeth Breitweiser. By Dennis Culver. From his first appearance in Fantastic Four #52 (1966) to his current New York Times-bestselling solo series, the King of Wakanda has been a force to be reckoned with on the page and now, on the silver screen. A veteran Avenger and a member of the Illuminati, T'Challa's evolution from being a Jack Kirby and Stan Lee creation, to inspiring his own character-led film for Marvel Studios, to serving as a literal voice of the people and the state of race relations in twenty-first-century America has been legendary. As the first black superhero in mainstream American comics, debuting years before other industry heavy hitters like the Falcon, Luke Cage, and John Stewart (Green Lantern), Black Panther is a seminal note in pop culture history. This deluxe hardcover book not only covers the history and creation of the character but also features exclusive concept art, layout and sketch art, and interviews with key artists and writers from Black Panther's robust archives. Hardcover, 11-in. x 14-in., 184 pages, full color. Includes a 10-in. x 13-in. full color Art Print by Denys Cowan, Bill Sienkiewicz, and Elizabeth Breirweiser. Cover price $45.00.

1st printing. Collects King GN (1993-2003 Fantagraphics) Vol. 1-3.

Story and art by Ho Che Anderson.

Ho Che Anderson has spent over 10 years researching, writing, and drawing King, a monumental graphic biography that liberates Martin Luther King Jr. from the saintly, one-dimensional, hagiographic image so prevalent in pop culture. Here is King -father, husband, politician, deal broker, idealist, pragmatist, inspiration to millions- brought to vivid, flesh-and-blood life.

Out of print since 2006, King is our most-requested reprint. In recognition of the advances made in American social equality that has made it possible to elect America's first black President, and in time to celebrate Martin Luther King Day (January 26, 2010), Fantagraphics Books is publishing King: the special Edition, a newly designed volume that includes the original 240-page graphic biography, as well as nearly a hundred additional pages of "extras," including:

o "Black Dogs" is a 14-page prelude to King, a dialogue between a young black couple expecting a child, living in LA in the aftermath of the Rodney King upheaval, a raw and inflected conversation between husband and wife and their racial attitudes in a post-King world; o Excerpts from the diary and notebook the author kept when researching and writing King, with interstitial notes written specifically for this volume commenting on the method he used to conceived and execute the book.

o Preparatory sketches, discarded images and pages, an interview conducted at the time of the 3rd volume's publication, and excerpts from the draft of the script.

o An epilogue titled "Assassin," written and drawn for this new edition, in which Anderson explores the question of whether James Earl Ray actually shot King. Caroline Longstreet, one of the observers who comments on King's life throughout the book, is obsessed with the assassination, won't let it rest, and pursues her own private investigation and ultimately confronts the reasons why it's held her in its grip so long.

Anderson's biography traces King's life from his childhood in Atlanta and his education at Booker T. Washington High School, and his subsequent centrality to the civil rights movement when, in 1955, he organized the successful Montgomery Bus Boycott; his founding of the Southern Christian leadership Conference in 1957; his Nobel Prize in 1964; his help in organizing the 1966 March on Washington and his "I Have a Dream" speech; and the tragic moment on April 4, 1968 when he was shot dead on the balcony of the Loraine Hotel in Memphis, Tennessee.

Anderson's expressionistic visual style is wrought with dramatic energy; panels evoke a painterly attention to detail but whose juxtapositions propel King's story with cinematic momentum. Anderson's successful use of the comics form to tell a major work of nonfiction has drawn favorable comparisons to Art Spiegelman's Maus: A survivor's Tale and Joe Sacco's safe Area Gorazde: The War In Eastern Bosnia 1992-1995. King won a1995 Parents' Choice Award.
