In 1978, DC Comics launched a bold initiative to win over fans and retailers with an expanded line-up billed as 'The DC Explosion.' But mere weeks after its launch, DC's parent company pulled the plug, cancelling a slew of titles, and leaving stacks of completed comic book stories unpublished. Now, over 45 years after that 'DC Implosion,' TwoMorrows Publishing recalls one of the most notorious events in comics. with an exhaustive oral history from Jenette Kahn, Paul Levitz, Len Wein, Mike Gold, Al Milgrom, and other creators and executives involved! Plus: detailed analysis and commentary by other top pros who were 'just fans' in 1978 (Mark Waid, Michael T. Gilbert, Tom Brevoort, and more)-examining how it changed the landscape of comics forever! This new Expanded Edition of the sold-out Eisner Award-nominated book explodes in full cover for the first time, with additional coverage of lost 1970s DC projects like Ninja the Invisible and an adaptation of 'The Wiz,' Jim Starlin's unaltered cover art for Batman Family #21, content meant for cancelled Marvel titles such as Godzilla and Ms. Marvel, and more!

From the letters pages of Silver Age comics to his 2021 induction into the Will Eisner Hall of Fame, the career of Dave Cockrum started at the bottom and then rose to the top of the comic book industry. Beginning with his childhood obsession with comics and continuing through his years in the Navy, The Life and Art of Dave Cockrum follows the rising star from fandom (where he was one of the 'Big Three' fanzine artists) to pro-dom, where he helped revive two struggling comic book franchises: the Legion of Super-Heroes and the X-Men. A prolific costume designer and character creator, his redesigns of the Legion and his introduction of X-Men characters Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, and Thunderbird (plus his design of Wolverine's alter ego, Logan) laid the foundation for both titles to become best-sellers. His later work on his own property, The Futurians, as well as childhood favorite Blackhawk and T.H.U.N.D.E.R Agents, plus his five years on Soulsearchers and Company, cemented his position as an industry giant. Featuring artwork from fanzines, unused character designs, and other rare material, this is the comprehensive biography of the legendary comic book artist, whose influence is still felt on the industry today!

In the 1970s, talented artists from the Philippines were uncrowned kings of the comics-and no one drew more or better than Alfredo Alcala! He's best known in the U.S. for his dreamscape work on Savage Sword of Conan-but wait'll you get a look at Voltar, the barbarian hero Alcala created before the Cimmerian came to comics! Richard Arndt interviews his sons Alfred and Christian, where you'll see the best of the Master's work for Marvel, DC, Warren-and, perhaps most amazingly of all, from his native Philippines, where Alfredo had his own comicbook named after him!
