The black and white horror comic magazine featured the talents of Bernie Wrightson, Jeff Jones, Mike Kaluta, Frank Brunner, Ralph Reese and others.</p><p>Stories from these issues have been reprinted across various books collecting the work of the individual artists or later horror comic anthologies. But here is the chance to own a hardcover collection of all three issues PLUS previously unpublished stories from the never published issue #4 and stories destined for the magazine that saw print elsewhere.</p><p>There's also informative introductions and historical material.</p><p>AND if you pledge $100 (all the money going to pay royalties to the creators and their estates) you get the hardcover book, a slipcase, a bookplate signed by Mike Kaluta, and a set of <i>Web of Horror</i> bookmarks. For a $30 pledge you can get a set of <i>Web of Horror</i> postcards.<br /><br />The book will be published by Fantagraphics, but only if the money can be raised to pay the royalties. As of this writing there's only seven left of the package that includes the book. Please pledge to this worthwhile project now!

His credits include inking Dave Cockrum on his classic run of <i>X-Men</i>, Carmine Infantino on the <i>Star Wars</i></span><span style="font-family: arial;"> comic book, and he inked some of Paul Smith's work on <i>X-Men</i>.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">He has started a Go Fund Me page to raise money for his medical treatment and taxes that are due. Not to mention his loss if income due to the glaucoma.

It's called <i>Kent State: Four Dead in Ohio </i>and<i> </i>will be available in all the usual places. Signed copies are available (as of this writing) for cover price from the independent bookstore <a href="https://www.macsbacks.com/book/9781419734847">Mac's Backs</a>.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">The 280 page graphic novel has been in the works for four years. It tells the story of that fateful May 4th in Ohio, but puts in the events in context with what was happening locally and nationally at the time. It also largely tells the story through the point of view of the four students killed that day. Backderf did extensive research for this in primary sources and also interviewed participants and survivors. I've been knocked out by the depth, weight, and artistry of his previous graphic novels and I am really looking foward to this one.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.tcj.com/we-seem-to-just-be-steamrolling-toward-tragedy-an-interview-with-derf-backderf/">Here's an interview</a> with Backderf published by <i>The Comics Journal</i>.

There's <i>Carbon 4</i> in the series of sketchbooks by Mark Schultz. Many of these are fully finished drawings done as commissions and also sketches for different projects. If you're a fan of Schultz, this book will really be a must have. <br /><br />They are also offering a new collected edition of Mark's <i>Xenozoic Tales</i> work. This one is in a smaller format, making it more portable.

Comics. Taschen just released a massive volume <i><a href="https://www.taschen.com/pages/en/catalogue/graphic_design/all/01135/facts.the_history_of_ec_comics.htm" target="_blank">The History of E.C. Comics</a>. </i>If you know anything about the publisher Taschen, this book is big, it is expensive, but it will be worth it.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The author, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grant_Geissman#Books" target="_blank">Grant Geissman</a>, has authored numerous books about the legendary E.C. line of comic books. With this book, the Gaines family opened their archives to him and it promises to have a lot of never before seen art and photos. Of course this book will cover the classic E.C. New Trend comics like <i>Tales From the Crypt </i>and <i>Weird Science</i> but will also cover Max Gaines' role in the founding of the modern American comic book and the Pre-Trend comics of the 1940's and early 1950's.</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Like I said, it's expensive ($180 to $200) but it's massive, 592 pages and over 13 pounds. It will have a gallery of every E.C. comic cover, and lots of new information too.<br /><br />Amazon says it is not coming out until October, but people who ordered it directly from Taschen are reporting it as being already shipped. You can order it <a href="https://www.taschen.com/pages/en/catalogue/graphic_design/all/01135/facts.the_history_of_ec_comics.htm" target="_blank">here</a> from the publisher. I ordered mine from <a href="https://www.budsartbooks.com/product/the-history-of-ec-comics/" target="_blank">Bud Plant</a> since I trust their packing and that the book will arrive safely but they appear to have it on back order now. <a href="https://www.amazon.com/History-EC-Comics-TASCHEN/dp/383654976X/" target="_blank">Amazon</a> has it, but do you really want to trust a $200 book to their packaging?</span></span></div><p></p>tomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14100881728689912157noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360506062642185261.post-39221218190079619572020-08-17T21:12:00.000-04:002020-08-17T21:13:21.346-04:00 Frank Frazetta Movie Posters<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

The book is only 6 1/4" x 9 1/4". Smaller than a bronze age comic book. That's the real crime here. I don't understand why anyone would bother releasing this book in such a small format. This review could really just say "Smaller than a comic book" and that would tell you all you would need to know.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Part of me is glad this book is in print in any format, and I certainly hope his estate gets some money from it but I feel like this is a lost opportunity. All the older editions of this book are expensive on the secondary market. This book is legendary, and likely a lot of new or younger Wrightson fans don't have it.

Some people say the reproduction is better in the earlier Marvel / Dodd-Mead edition but I think you need a magnifying class to tell the difference. The Dark Horse one is larger, printed on higher quality paper and much better designed. If you can save your money and pick up one of those editions that's currently the best way to see this masterpiece. I guess if you can't afford one of those and have to have <i>something</i>, get this Gallery 13 edition. Or, if you're a nut like me and buy this book in languages you can't even read, then you probably already have it.<br /><br />Some of you may have heard IDW is planning an Artist Edition of this book, with the art reproduced full size and photographed in color to pick up every bit of underlying pencil and nuance in the inking. That was supposed to be out in October 2019. At a panel from the online San Diego Con in August 2020 the editor said it will be out early next year. Let's keep our finger's crossed.</span></div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div>tomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14100881728689912157noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1360506062642185261.post-1919777180134311582019-07-19T21:16:00.000-04:002019-07-19T21:16:42.365-04:00Williamson, Frazetta & Krenkel: The One Who Waits<br>

Matt Baker (December 10, 1921 – August 11, 1959) was an American comic book artist who drew the costumed crimefighter Phantom Lady, among many other characters. Active in the 1940s and 1950s Golden Age of comic books, he is the first known African-American artist to find success in the comic-book industry. He also penciled the very first graphic novel, St. John Publications' digest-sized "picture novel" <i>It Rhymes with Lust</i> (1950). Baker was inducted into the Will Eisner Comic Book Hall of Fame in 2009. (from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matt_Baker_(artist)">Wikipedia</a>)

Gahan Wilson, one of the funniest cartoonists ever to put pen to paper, is suffering from dementia. I have laughed and enjoyed his work in the pages of National Lampoon, Playboy, and lots of other publications for decades. His step-son is raising money for memory care for him, you can donate to the fund <a href="https://www.gofundme.com/gahan-wilson-team-effort">here</a>. Even if you can't donate a few bucks, please share this on your social media or on your own blogs.
<br>

In October 1982, The Comics Journal published a lengthy interview with Bernie Wrightson. That's when I was first really getting into Wrightson and I read that thing over and over. Looking at it now, I realize the interviewer was sitting flipping through A LOOK BACK as he did the interview, and that kind of limited the questions in my mind. It's still a great interview. It's online <a href="http://www.tcj.com/the-berni-wrightson-interview/">here</a>.
