Originally published in Thriller Picture Library issues 66, 105, 108 and 145, these four tales are rendered by four very different artists. In The Rogue's Moon Philip Mendoza splendidly captures the brutality and mendaciousness of cut-throat pirates. Reg Bunn's Captain Kidd of the Spanish Main has the feel of good, old-fashioned swashbuckling adventure, so prevalent in the movies of the 1950s. In The Sea Hawk, Robert Forrest brings the world of the Barbary pirates to fierce, vigorous life with his atmospheric and authentically-realised drawings. Vigorously drawn with a great sense of movement, The Fortunes of Captain Blood was John Millar Watt's very first adventure strip. Not content drawing all 64 pages of the comic, he also painted the cover! (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

You'd better bathe in garlic, grab a crucifix and wrap up warm, for this most spooktacular, edition of illustrators. This 200 page festival of fright delves into the darkest recesses of EC lore with an in-depth look at the life of the most reclusive of the EC gang-as EC scholar Grant Geissman describes Graham Ingels-'Mr Horror Himself.' Further light is shed by the reminiscences of fan and fellow EC scholar Don Vaughan as well as Ann Tyler, who attended Ingels classes during the period when he was tutoring painters. For Warren fans (and we know there are many of you out there) we have a contribution from J. David Spurlock, in a feature about Basil and David's friendship with the great man. And from the UK we have Shane Oakley. Once seen, never forgotten-that's Shane's art in a nutshell. Grab yourself a copy of the Illustrators Halloween Spooktacular, plump up your coffin pillow, shake out the worms and maggots from your shroud, and snuggle down for the ultimate fright-fest!

One of the most fondly remembered British strips was the fully painted The Rise and Fall of the Trigan Empire. With its pseudo retro setting in a world resembling Ancient Rome but with the advances of science in its weapons and flying vehicles, it set the standard in boys' comics from the 1960s. But it was mainly the absolutely stunning artwork of its initial artist, Don Lawrence, that made it a fan-favorite. We take a closer look at the artwork and feature panels in detail from the various artists who contributed to the series. The majority of the artwork was scanned from the originals and reproduced at their actual size to see the artwork in all its glorious detail. (immagine) Categoria: Magazines

Quaco was just a boy when he was ruthlessly kidnapped by human traffickers around 1770 and sold to the captain of a slave ship. Quaco managed to survive the harrowing ocean crossing, and eventually landed in Paramaribo (Suriname) on the estate of the wealthy plantation owner and administrator Walter Kennedy. Quaco was one of the millions of Africans who fell victim to the trans-Atlantic slave trade. His life story is partly based on John Gabriel Stedman's illustrated memoires of his time as an army captain in Suriname. Originally published in Dutch this English translation is the work of the students of Sheffield University with their help and support. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Born in Argentina in 1933, Jorge Moliterni's earliest work was in advertising. He soon moved to working in comics, where he was kept busy working for a wide spectrum of clients including the UK's Fleetway publications, including their pocket war libraries in the 1960s. Despite the influence of Milt Caniff that he shared with many of his contemporaries, his work was unparalleled when it came to handling dark themes. His moody use of light and portrayal of characters driven to the edge of madness made him a perfect choice for stories about fear, greed and vengeance. We have chosen four of his greatest stories, carefully restored the art and reset the fonts to bring you the sharpest reproduction imaginable of these great comics along with a War Comic Checklist and Cover gallery.

Collectors often ask what makes the Carol Day comic strip, an obscure and seldom seen newspaper strip from the United Kingdom, so special to a small but growing band of fanatics. The strip hasn't been significantly reprinted and it never achieved wide circulation in newspapers. This book presents, for the first time, the full range of Carol Day art, from Wright's first story to his last, with examples from every story. We have gathered 136 outstanding Carol Day examples from across David Wright's run to display. All are reproduced from the original art to present the flavor of the strip and the magnitude of Wright's achievement. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror
