GOLDEN AGE CLASSICS THE SPIRIT TP SOFTEE VOLUME 5 Quality Comics was an American comic book publishing company that operated from 1937 to 1956 and was largely influential in creating the 'Golden Age' of comic books. From 1940–1950, printer Everett M. "Busy" Arnold reprinted Spirit stories under his Quality Comics banner, first individually from 1940–1947 as one of the features in 92 issues of Police Comics and from 1944–1950 as 22 issues of The Spirit.The Spirit is a fictional masked crime fighter created by cartoonist Will Eisner, who fights crime with the blessing of the city's police commissioner Dolan, an old friend. Despite the Spirit's origin as detective/criminologist Denny Colt, his real identity was rarely referred to after his first appearance, and for all intents and purposes he was simply "The Spirit". The stories are presented in a wide variety of styles, from straight forward crime drama and noir to lighthearted adventure, from mystery and horror to comedy and love stories, often with hybrid elements that twisted genre and reader expectations. Comic book stories from the 1940s and 1950s may depict some ethnic and racial prejudices that were oncecommon place in American culture. Such depictions were wrong then and are wrong today. While not representing the publisher's view of today's society, these stories are printed as they were originally created, because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed.

Charlton Comics fared poorly when measured against the big guns of DC and Marvel, and that's a shame because they had lots to offer! Check out this five-comic volume featuring This Is Suspense #23-26 (Feb. 1955 to Aug. 1955) and the slightly renamed pre-Ditko Strange Suspense Stories, picking up the numbering with #27 in October of 1955. Say what you will (and we know you will!), Charlton had lots to offer, with much of it being fairly serious and semi-adult, with a contributor line-up that boasted Ted Galindo, Dick Giordano, Wally Wood, George Evans, Lou Morales, Pete Morisi, Vic Martin, Marc Swayze, Don Heck, Bill Molno, Sid Check and Stan Campbell. Buy it and show off to lesser mortals! Available in Standard and Slipcased Hardcover editions. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Weird Tales of Terror spun by the Master of Horror 'The Teller' and his Team of Terrors - Garry Ghoul, Freddie Demon, Victor Vampire and Walter Werewolf, whose faces gloriously adorn the covers. The odd thing about these titles is that the publisher was convinced that faces sold comics; he insisted that every issue have some sort of a face dominating the cover, and with Don Heck at the drawing board, his cover artist, he eagerly obliged. So, with the obvious answer staring you in the face you four-color fiends - go get 'em pronto! Collects Horrific #9-12 (January-July 1953) and Terrific #14 (December 1954).

PS Artbooks presents the concluding volume of Amazing Man, the second super-hero after Superman, to have a comic book named after him). Historians credit his creation variously to writer-artist Bill Everett and art director Lloyd Jacquet, although some credit may be due to Grace Everett, who helped with research. In 1914, an orphaned child named John Aman was chosen by the Tibetan Council of Seven and trained to be a superman, both in mental and physical perfection. His powers include super strength, invulnerability and the ability to make himself disappear in a cloud of green vapor. When he turned twenty-five, after his final tests, he is sent into the world to combat crime and injustice, returning to America to become the heroic Amazing Man and his continuing battles with arch-enemy 'The Great Question'! Collects Amazing Man #20-26 (February 1941-January 1942) and Stars and Stripes #2-6 (May-December 1941). (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Synopsis: COMIC MEDIA : Dynamite (1953 Series) Issues #6 - #9 January 1954 - September 1954 CHARLTON : Johnny Dynamite (1955 Series) #10 June 1955 Special Notes: Variant Covers If collated need the ratio, /Free or ordering Criteria Johnny Dynamite created by Pete Morisi was a hard-boiled private detective, known as 'The Wild Man from Chicago.' Good friends with the D.A. but readily accepted by the underworld - he smoked cigarettes constantly, cursed frequently and had a bad habit of getting shot and beaten by his enemies. But always gave as good as he got - he was an experience and persistent detective taking his cases very personally and killed many of his early foes, claiming they were reaching for a weapon. Myra Benz, who had shot him in the eye, was brazenly killed without any true justification beyond his own sense of justice. The other main artist across Comic Media titles was Don Heck, who in 1955 would be recruited by Stan Lee to Atlas Comics, later to become Marvel Comics. Where he became one of the architects of what became known as 'The Marvel Age of Comics,' along with Jack Kirby, Steve Ditko and Dick Ayers. So combined Pete and Don make this 1950's five-comic set, today's winner but be warned, stock is limited! You better get your money ready, they'll be going fast - and you do not need Johnny on your tail! (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
