Basil Wolverton (July 9, 1909 - December 31, 1978) born in Central Point, Oregon and later moved to Vancouver, Washington. He worked as a vaudeville performer and a cartoonist and reporter for the Portland News. Wolverton was a master in caricaturing the human face and body and his drawings have elicited a wide range of reactions; he even described himself as a 'Producer of Preposterous Pictures of Peculiar People who Prowl this Perplexing Planet.' Preferring to work with pen and ink, Wolverton's lack of artistic schooling gave his drawings an otherworldly appearance. There was no other artist at the time who drew like him! Harvey Kurtzman felt 'Wolverton never borrowed, never hacked, and he never shortchanged the public. Wolverton was an original.' In 1991 he was posthumously inducted in the Jack Kirby Hall of Fame and in 2000 in the Will Eisner Hall of Fame. Collects Amazing Mystery Funnies featuring Space Patrol (December 1939-September 1940), Target Comics Month featuring Spacehawk (June 1940-June 1941), and Weird Tales of the Future featuring Basil Wolverton (June-September 1952).

Amazing Man was the second superhero 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, founder of The Funnies Inc., 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 vapour. 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.

Strange Mysteries features an eccentric mix of weird and strange tales from Ross Andru, Jon D'Agostino, Alvin C. Hollingeworth, Joe Orlando, Ed Goldfarb, Tont Tallaico, and Joe Kubert. I.W. Publishing became notorious for publishing unauthorized reprints of other company's comics, often with new covers. The numbering of most of the company's titles is misleading, often not starting at issue #1 and skipping issue numbers. Incredibly though, the company produced 118 separate titles, no mean achievement! Plus: the bonus issue Fantastic Tales featuring glorious horror tales from the fantastic A.C. Hollingsworth, Norman Nodel and Harry Lazarus. Collects Strange Mysteries #15-18 (1964), plus Fantastic Tales (1958). (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
