In the mid-20th century, Mickey Spillane was the sensation of not just mystery fiction but publishing itself. The level of sex and violence in his Mike Hammer thrillers (starting with I, The Jury in 1947) broke down long-held taboos and engendered a near hysterical critical backlash. Spillane's fiction came to the screen in a series of films that include Kiss Me Deadly (1955) and The Girl Hunters (1963) with the author himself playing his private eye. These films, and television series starring Darren McGavin and Stacy Keach respectively, are examined in a lively, knowledgeable fashion by Spillane experts. Included are cast and crew listings, brief biographical entries on key persons, and a lengthy interview with Spillane. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

WHITE OWL

How well do you know Star Trek? Lifelong science fiction fan, podcaster and author Tom Salinsky decided that the answer was 'not well enough', and so at the beginning of 2022, he embarked on a two-year mission to watch everything from the start of The Original Series to the end of Enterprise, at the rate of one episode per day. This book is the first part of that odyssey, covering the 79 television episodes which started it all, the animated series which briefly brought it back in the 1970s, the first six original movies and the full run of The Next Generation. As well as having fun saluting the show's triumphs, cringing at its lapses in taste, and admiring its willingness to swing for the fences, there's lots of fascinating behind-the-scenes information here. Why were salt-cellars unchanged in the 23rd century? Was Gene Roddenberry really not allowed to show a woman's belly button? How many characters get killed during the run of The Animated Series? Who actually wrote the script for Wrath of Khan? How did Paramount get Next Generation on the air when no network would touch it? But you'll also get the benefit of a complete overview of this landmark series, watching it unfold and familiar elements appear - often much later than you think. When's the first mention of the Federation? Of Kirk's time being the 23rd century? Of there being no money in the future? And some elements appear rather earlier than you might think - which episode is the first to feature a Holodeck? Whether you're a die-hard fan, a casual viewer, or just someone interested in the history of television, you'll adore coming on this daily journey though the highs and lows of one of the most significant and much-loved media properties in the world.

4 1/2' tall, limited to 750 numbered pieces Packaged in its own tin box, with a pin-back button and character booklet $49.95 We now offer the fourth in the Disney Comics & Stories lineup-it's none other than the lovable Mickey Mouse. This is our first-ever depiction of this Disney mainstay. It will be a companion piece to next month's offering: The Phantom Blot. The Disney Comics & Stories Characters series depicts the cartoon characters as they were in the comics, but they are also somewhat more rough hewn than is common, with features including rough surface textures, visible seam lines, and other slightly 'distressed' aspects.

Boldly Go! When you make a movie based on one of the most beloved and admired entertainment franchises of all time, every detail matters. In the case of J.J. Abrams' Star Trek, some amazing concepts were considered before the release, right down to the movie poster itself. Quantum Mechanix offers some of those amazing movie poster concepts in thematic sets of four 18' x 24' prints. This first set focuses on retro, WPA-style themes that were explored early on, when the movie's release date was still scheduled for December 2008. Much of the artwork left on the drawing board was truly spectacular. Each posts is a plate-printed lithograph on 100-pound, aqueous-coated, satin-finish paper.

This is the first book to comprehensively examine the multitude of non-Archie teen humor comic books, including girls and boys such as Patsy Walker, Hedy Wolfe, Buzz Baxter and Wendy Parker from Marvel; Judy Foster, Buzzy, Binky and Scribbly from DC; Candy from Quality Comics; and Hap Hazard from Ace Comics. It covers the history of the characters, who drew them, why (or why not) they succeeded as rivals for the Archie Series, highlights of both unusual and typical stories and much more. The author provides major plotlines and a history of the development of each series. Much has been written about the Archie characters, but until now very little has been told about most of their many comic book competitors. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror
