Cover by Stan Shaw. Jack Kirby is the undeniable King of Comics. He created most of the heroes we all grew up with. But superheroes weren't his exclusive subject matter -- he also drew westerns, crime stories, romance comics . . . and Bible plates. In the 1970s, Kirby illustrated his favorite scenes from the Old Testament; not comic stories, but illustrative plates. "It was the best work of his life," says Roz Kirby. "The artwork he was most proud of." For a look at the greatest work of the greatest illustrator comics has ever known -- will ever know -- be sure to order your copy of Dark Horse Presents #103. And as if that's not enough, the most diverse anthology in comics runs the gamut this month, ranging from the slyly hip to the angst-ridden to the weird and supernatural. The world's first unborn superhero, "The Pink Tornado," debuts in this issue, "Mr. Painter" continues the story of a disaffected artiste, Alan Bland -- a coffee addict and tuba aficionado -- who becomes obsessed with an old painting he finds in his parents' home. Paul Pope, alternative comics genius, continues "The One Trick Rip-Off," a stylish, comics noir strip set in a near-future Los Angeles and focusing on a small group of thieves called the One Tricks. "Cal: Hairball" is a mystery featuring Cal McDonald, paranormal investigator, whose pursuit of some weird characters puts him hot on the trail of a murderer. This month, these weird characters show themselves as even weirder by killing Cal's client! Kitsch, comedy, comics noir, and Kirby -- if you're wanting anything more, you're just getting greedy! B&W.

Cover by Casey Jones and Bruce Patterson. The oldest and freshest anthology series in the comics business serves up another heaping helping of sophistication and diversity. The tales range from the supernatural to the absurd to existential to nitty-gritty crime fiction. The creators have prior credits that span the range of modern comics as well, from Ghost to Harlan Ellison's Dream Corridor to Star Wars: Dark Lords of the Sith. Paul Pope, alternative comics genius, continues "The One Trick Rip-Off," a stylish, comics noir strip set in a near-future Los Angeles and focusing on a small group of thieves called the One Tricks. In "Cal Hairball," Steve Niles concludes his 4-part serial about Cal MacDonald, a paranormal investigator whose search for a murderer leads him into out onto a busy highway for a climactic confrontation with a werewolf. Scott Musgrove and Darick Chamberlin's "The Pink Tornado" is the world's first stillborn superhero. In this last of 3 parts, he goes up against his arch-nemesis, Dr. Canada, the Provincial Man, a man with eerily detachable body parts. "That's Mr. Painter to You" concludes Stan Shaw's existential tale of a disaffected artiste named Alan Bland -- a coffee addict and tuba aficionado -- who becomes obsessed with an old painting found in his parents' home.

Cover by Bill Wray. A rock-hard projectile of indeterminate origin is forcing its way out of his buttocks! It's Big Blown Baby's first solid poo, and there's no way he's going to drop that golden brick without thousands of witnesses present to sanctify the proceedings! Join Ren and Stimpy animator Bill Wray and scatological scat-man Robert Loren Fleming for the bare-assed adventures of Big Blown Baby, in a tale heralding his four-issue miniseries! And speaking of big, we've got the King of Monsters in an enormous bind -- it's the funniest Godzilla story you will ever read, courtesy of alternative comics legends Ed Brubaker (Prez) and Dave Cooper (Pressed Tongue). And then, after your sides are all sore from laughing, we hit you with a spot of serious entertainment, Paul Pope's latest chapter of "The One Trick Rip- Off," a crime-noir comic about a bunch of young toughs getting out-toughed by a dame.

Cover by Mike Mignola. Mike Mignola's Hellboy brought major attention to DHP twenty issues ago; now his latest creation is sure to do the same! Mignola and Sam and Max creator Steve Purcell have come together to introduce a waiting world to "Rusty Razorclam, President of Neptune!" The horrorist and humorist reminisce about Rusty's days as a space cadet at the Academy, a time when one of his genetic experiments got way out of hand. And this terrific lead-in starts off a killer line-up, including two new serials: Jack Pollock's "Devil Chef" and Renée French's "The Ninth Gland." But the fun doesn't end there! Rick Geary was doing "alternative" work before the word was coined -- so his "Fashions in Humiliation and Debasement" is right at home with this creative crowd! And last, but certainly not least, Paul Pope delivers another chapter in his gritty 12-part tale of urban sleeze and thievery, "The One Trick Rip-Off." Cover by Mike Mignola. B&W. Cover price $2.95.

Cover by Renee French. Comics' longest-running anthology series serves up another feast of diverse delights, starting with a chunk of "The Ninth Gland" by Renée French, the creator of Fantagraphics's Grit Bath. It's the weird but strangely sweet story about a janitor named Huey Kittentank and two young girls who perform surgery to save the life of an unnamable foundling creature from the girls' back yard. More strange critters inhabit Jack Pollock's latest Devil Chef culinary caper, as the Chef's protégé-gone-wrong carries out unholy gustatory experiments using -- tapeworms! Paul Pope's "The One-Trick Rip Off" continues its gritty excursion into a noir Los Angeles, replete with crime, thievery, and thuggery. Finally, newcomers Scott Gillis and Jeff DeMos offer the black humor of "The Perfect Tree," the story of a suicide attempt that doesn't go quite according to plan. Renée French and Laura Allred (Madman Comics) have created an eerily evocative cover, portraying Huey Kittentank from "The Ninth Gland." DHP #108 is your one-stop shop for all flavors from the sweet to the weird. B&W. Cover price $2.95.

Cover by Al Williamson. Variety is the spice of life, and nothing is spicier than DHP! First up, a delectable dish from Mark Schultz (Xenozoic Tales) and Al Williamson (Star Wars: A New Hope). "One Last Job" is a short tale about an interplanetary bounty hunter who's ready to quit for the joys of love, but can't seem to keep himself from chasing just one more big score. Our second course is a healthy helping of The Lords of Misrule, currently enjoying its own DH miniseries. Taking urban legends and standing them on end, John Tomlinson and Peter Snejbjerg (Vertigo's The Dreaming) have brewed up a prequel that will keep you up all night. This is followed by the tantalizing continuation of "Trout," Troy Nixey's surrealistic journey. Trout is in search of evil that escaped him when he wasn't paying attention, and he may end up uncovering more secrets than he was planning for. Finally, Evan Dorkin (Milk & Cheese) offers his famous "Hectic Planet" dessert. A love lost is the worst thing in the world, especially when it has gone and died without telling you. Be careful, because mourning can be explosive. Topping it all off is a crisp afterdinner mint, a one-page tale about the intuitive power of friends and coping with loss. "Gather Ye Rosebuds" is by Bob Schreck, Casey Jones, and Monty Sheldon. Oh, and don't forget our appetizer, a scrumptious cover by Al Williamson based on an idea he had when he was twelve, later sketched out when he was nineteen, and now finally finished, at an age where Al's far too charming to have to disclose how old he really is.

Cover by Arnold Pander. Jack Zero is a legendary gunslinger immortalized in pulp magazines, but when he tells the story himself, it's clear that the truth is a lot different than the fiction that was made out of it. European performance artist Zero Boy and Eisner Award winning artist Arnold Pander (Triple*X, Rune, Grendel) collaborate on the five-part series "Jack Zero," which begins here. Meanwhile, writer Darko Macan (Star Wars: X-Wing Rogue Squadron, Grendel Tales: Devils and Deaths) and artist Tommy Lee Edwards (Helix's Gemini Blood, Batman Chronicles) craft an eerie short story of Aliens, where the only things that are clearly black-and-white are the ink and the paper. In "Aliens: Borderlines," a soldier on a far outpost learns what it's like to live in the sort of fear armies inspire. He's come face to face with an Alien, and he's not sure how literal a face-to-face meeting it was. And for those who are already along for the ride, we have the next installments of "The Lords of Misrule," by John Tomlinson and Peter Snejbjerg (The Dreaming), and "Trout," by Troy Nixey. B&W.
