1st printing.

By David Currie. Foreword by Mark S. Ditko.

The first in depth biography of comics-legend Steve Ditko, in his own works, taken from years of correspondence with author David Currie and endorsed by the Ditko family with a Foreword by Mark S. Ditko.

Steve Ditko was the last of a generation of American comic book artists who created powerful modern-day mythology and became among the most influential and original creators of the 20th century. He co-created Spider-Man along with Stan Lee, but walked away from the character in the 1960s just as it was gaining popularity. He died alone at 90, known to the comic book industry as a "cranky recluse."

Hardcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 144 pages, full color.

Written by Stan Lee and Fabian Nicieza. Art by John Romita, Jim Mooney, John Buscema, and Steve Rude. Cover by Steve Rude.

Relive a Spidey epic decades in the telling!

It all begins with a classic struggle over a petrified tablet said to hold the secret to eternal life! It's a priceless relic that a lot of dangerous folks want to get their hands on - like the Kingpin of Crime, the Shocker, Man Mountain Marko and Maggia boss Silvermane! Others are drawn into the fray - including Quicksilver and Dr. Curt Connors - but the tablet has a lesson to teach: Be careful what you wish for!

Years later, Hammerhead sets his sights on the sought-after stone - and its full secrets are revealed in a free-for-all that draws in Boomerang, the Sub-Mariner, and Connors' savage alter ego, the Lizard! Only a Spider-Man/Doctor Strange team-up can prevent the Lifeline Tablet from wreaking havoc!

By JOE HARRIS and CHARLIE ADLARD Dark Horse Comics is proud to publish the comic book prequel to this fall's horror film hit-in-the-making! The Tooth Fairy: The Tragic Life of Matilda Dixon serves as a prologue to the film, recounting the century-old events that set a horrifying cycle of violence in motion. The movie stars Emma Caulfield (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and is slated for January 2003 release. The comic book is written by Joe Harris (X-Men) and drawn by Charlie Adlard (The X-Files). The comic focuses on a defining moment in the history of Port Fairy, a small fishing village. Matilda Dixon, a once-beautiful, now-disfigured widow has developed a special relationship with the children of Port Fairy. They bring her their recently shed baby teeth in exchange for coins. However, the mask-clad Dixon's familiarity with the town's children alarms their parents, and when two children go missing a lynch mob gathers to make Matilda pay... In The Tooth Fairy: The Tragic Life of Matilda Dixon, Joe Harris and Charlie Adlard have crafted a horrifying yet heartbreaking tale of loss and loneliness. The claustrophobic small-mindedness of Port Fairy conjures up images of the Salem witch trials and the tragic ending of the book sets the stage for the vengeance and neo-gothic horror of the upcoming Tooth Fairy film. On sale January 1 FC, 32pg (one-shot) . . . $2.99 Cover price $2.99.

Written by Eriq LaSalle and Doug Wagner. Art by Tony Shasteen. Co-written by E.R. star Eriq LaSalle! Three African-American police officers have been brutally murdered in Virginia. An elite, yet experimental, FBI unit, formed especially to investigate high-profile crimes, is called upon to head up the investigation. The team matches its investigators with hardened criminals incarcerated for committing similar crimes. In this particular instance, it means working with a racist militia leader serving a life sentence, a man who would rather help the murderer than stop the killing spree. 32 pages, full color.
