1st printing. By Reed Tucker. The most bruising battle in the superhero world isn't between spandex-clad characters; it's between the publishers themselves. For more than 50 years, Marvel and DC have been locked in an epic war, tirelessly trading punches and trying to do to each other what Batman regularly does to the Joker's face. Slugfest, the first book to tell the history of this epic rivalry into a single, juicy narrative, is the story of the greatest corporate rivalry never told. Complete with interviews with the major names in the industry, Slugfest reveals the arsenal of schemes the two companies have employed in their attempts to outmaneuver the competition, whether it be stealing ideas, poaching employees, planting spies, ripping off characters or launching price wars. Sometimes the feud has been vicious, at other times, more cordial. But it has never completely disappeared, and it simmers on a low boil to this day. Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 304 pages, B&W. Cover price $27.00.

Professor X is dead! The X-Men have gone their separate ways!

Covering 10 different themes, including coming of age, action, humor, exploration, history and stories to learn from, this book shows how graphic novels can take you to fantastic, yet human, worlds. Whether you are a full-out fan, just beginning to discover graphic novels or somewhere in between, this book showcases some of the best ones that you should be reading.

1st Printing - Written by Walter Lord. On the morning of March 6, 1836, in an old abandoned mission called the Alamo, a small Texas garrison fought to the death rather than yield to an overwhelming army of Mexicans. Through the years the garrisons heroic stand has become so clothed in folklore and romance that the truth has nearly been lost. In A Time to Stand Walter Lord rediscovers and recreates the whole fascinating story. From contemporary documents, diaries, and letters, he has mined a wealth of fresh information that throws intriguing sidelights on the epic of the Alamo. What were the defenders like? Why did they take their stand? Did any escape? Did Davy Crockett surrender? The cast of characters includes not only famous figures like Jim Bowie but unknown, unsung men: John Purdy Reynolds, the wandering Pennsylvania surgeon; George Kimball, the industrious New York hatter, Micajah Autry of Tennessee, who was a far better poet than a businessman. And then there are the Mexicans: the fabulous Santa Anna; the smooth Colonel Almonte; the forlorn private Juan Basquez, who only wanted to stay home and make shoes. Softcover, 5" x 8", 256 pages, B&W. Cover price $5.95.

Jonah Jameson; and the debut of classic villains including the Green Goblin, Dr. Octopus, the Sandman, the Vulture and Electro!

Doctor Octopus is putting the band back together! But who will join master planner Otto Octavius in the most Sinister Six of all?

Spidey is about to find out, but defeating this sextet of his most ruthless foes will test him like never before -- and in the aftermath, Peter's tremendous sense of responsibility will lead him to give up his powers! Is this Spider-Man no more? Normal life isn't so great when the Scorpion attacks, and the Black Cat must leap to the rescue. Fingers crossed that the web-slinger will be back in action by the time Venom returns, the Avengers assemble and Doctor Doom arrives in town!

Plus: Peter and Mary Jane's romantic getaway in Scotland turns into a haunted second honeymoon!

John Romita Sr. joins Stan Lee, elevating Spidey's adventures to new heights - beginning with a Green Goblin epic that establishes him as Spider-Man's most dangerous enemy! And then the Rhino, a bulldozer on two legs, threatens to make Spidey an endangered species. The action keeps pumping with Spidey's first meeting with the Avengers, the Shocker, the return of the Lizard, Kraven the Hunter, an all-new Vulture and the first appearance of the Kingpin! But the true heart of the story is young Peter Parker finding his way in the world. He gains new independence as he gets his own pad with Harry Osborn, courts Gwen Stacy - and, in comics' most unforgettable entrance, meets Miss Mary Jane Watson!
