Edited By Michael Uslan. Cover by Murphy Anderson.
From the very center of the earth to the farthest edges of space, from the thrills of the near future to the last terror of recorded time, here in one fabulous collection are the best comic-book tales of science fiction ever published.
Produced by DC Comics from 1959 to the early 1960's, they are the works of the best and the brightest in the field, writers like Gardner Fox, John Broome and Otto Binder, and fantasy-art greats like Carmine Infantino, Murphy Anderson and Frank Frazetta.
From the earliest heart-wrenchers like "Do Not Open till Doomsday" to the most famous thrillers starring Adam Strange, here is a taste of a golden age of science fictions that has not since been equaled in comicdom, a time when there were giants and geniuses in the field.

By Jason Bailey.
Film expert Jason Bailey explores why Pulp Fiction is such a brilliant and influential film.
He discusses how the movie was revolutionary in its use of dialogue, time structure, and cinematography - and how it completely transformed the industry and artistry of independent cinema. He examines Tarantino's influences, illuminates the film's pop culture references, and describes its phenomenal legacy. Illustrated throughout with original art inspired by the film, with sidebars and special features on everything from casting close calls to deleted scenes, this is the most comprehensive, in-depth book on Pulp Fiction ever published.

View scanSpring 1974. The Publication of the Harvard University Comics Society. "Jack Kirby, Fritz Lang, and Balance" by Thomas A. Durwood - The eminent film director and 'the king of comics' are seen to gravitate forcefully to the same visual and thematic principle. "Comics' New Wave" by Micheal C. Young and Richard Foltin - Godard, Truffaut, and Charbrol ushered in film's nouvelle vague in the 1950's. Perhaps Smith, Kaluta, and Starlin are the vanguard of a new wave for comics. "Film and Comic Art: A Critique of the Purist View" by Armand Eisen - Purist theory holds that true films are silent, true graphic fiction proseless. An impressive rebuttal, drawing upon a firm conception of both pictorial forms. "Bypassing the Real for the Ideal" by Gil Kane - The distinguished artist gives a near-definitive overview of the virtues and limitations of the comics storytelling medium. Long experience, an eclectic body of accumulated knowledge, and highly articulated aesthetic sensibilities give the author a rare command of the field. "An American Mythology" by Charles Wooley - A thorough and scholarly examination of the recurrent topic of comics as myth, and what they tell us about our society. "Reality, Character and Comics" by Joseph Dunster-Whiting - The range of stances that narrative artists -- from Conan Doyle to Will Eisner -- take towards their characters and towards reality is surprisingly wide. Cover by Gil Kane.
