Western TV shows, films and comic strips were hugely popular in the UK in the 1950s and 1960s and the two most popular British weekly comic strips were Buffalo Bill in The Comet and Billy the Kid in The Sun. Don Lawrence drew these action-packed stories full of brilliant Western art before he went on to draw Olac the Gladiator, Karl the Viking, The Trigan Empire, and Storm to international acclaim. Collected in book form for the first time ever, Book Palace Books is proud to present all 17 Billy the Kid stories from The Sun comic, four tales from The Lion and one adventure from Thriller Picture Library, all drawn in the late 1950s by the world-renowned Lawrence.

Billy Bunter had a long career at Fleetway. He began in hugely popular text stories and then went on to further fame as a purely slapstick character in the pages of Knockout and Valiant, where his depiction was almost totally unrelated to his original conception. The strips that appeared in Comet take us firmly back to the roots that established the popularity of the characters: exciting dramatic adventures featuring not only Billy Bunter but also the cast of other Greyfriars characters. This volume comprises the very best of the Comet Billy Bunter dramatic strips, including all those drawn by Reg Bunn ('The Famous Five') and C.H. Chapman ('Greyfriars School' and 'Bunter of Greyfriars') that most admirers would consider the pick of the crop, or as Billy Bunter might say, the icing on the cake… (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

(W/A) Ron Embleton All of Ron Embleton's Wulf the Briton stories - collected from Express Weekly and the Annuals - in large format, gloriously reproduced in color to the highest standard. Wulf the Briton was, without a doubt, Ron Embleton's comics masterpiece after he took over the strip (in 1957) which had previously been a single page cover feature on Express Weekly. The workload that Embleton undertook with Wulf was formidable. In comparison to Frank Hampson, who had a studio and assistants to help meet the weekly Dan Dare deadlines, Embleton just had himself to draw, letter and paint the feature. However, Embleton was unfazed by such considerations and within a few months he was also writing the strip and steering it in a much more historically credible direction, as well as adding an extra page to the strip! This Deluxe hardcover edition is numbered and limited to 400 copies worldwide. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

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

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.
