Story and art by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko. The first Venus War is over. Though Ishtar's campaign against Aphrodia was a success, Ishtar suffers from internal warfare as rival factions struggle for control of the postwar political landscape. With the regular military and the powerful Security Police claiming separate loyalties, Ishtar is a powder keg with a very short fuse. Could the flush of martial success abroad help strike the match of civil war at home? The Venus Wars II is a fascinating study of power politics and political intrigue combined with the all-out spectacular action that made The Venus Wars a must-read for manga fans as well more mainstream readers. 32 pages, B&W. Cover price $2.75.

Story and art by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko. In the year 2003, a titanic collision between an immense ice asteroid and the planet Venus transforms Earth's closest neighbor into a habitable world. Eighty years later, two colonial powers, Ishtar and Aphrodia, glare at each other across a contested frontier. The militaristic Ishtar, hungry for Aphrodia's rich resources, has developed a supertank known as the Octopus to spearhead its assault force. Unable to face Ishtar's industrial might head on, Aphrodia counters with the Hound--a high-performance antitank battle cycle designed to outmaneuver the massive tanks and strike their weak points. The war won't wait and the fate of all Aphrodia is in the hands of Ken Falkirk, a suicidal motorcycle daredevil! 32 pages, B&W. Cover price $2.25.

The MARVEL MASTERWORKS are proud to present one of the most amazing titles and characters in the Marvel pantheon: Venus! Debuting in 1948, Venus would come to reflect the morphing genres and content of the comic-book industry like almost no other title, and across its run would present some of the most compelling stories of the era. From the beginning, the title featured the goddess of love, Venus, who leaves her immortal throne to seek love as a normal - though stunningly beautiful - mortal on Earth.

Publisher Whitney Hammond turns her arrival on Earth into a media event and appoints her editor of his flagging magazine Beauty. Stories on the trials and tribulations of magazine publishing and men smitten by her beauty, however, soon gave way to mythological tales with a fantasy/adventure bent. Increasingly dark in tone, Venus' adventures began to feature scheming Olympian villains set to control, foil or destroy the Earthbound goddess' plans. Trips into the underworld ruled by the Atlas Era's Loki became the norm, and lush artwork by many of the period's top talents graced extended-length stories. Collected here for the first time, this rare fan-favorite title is a must-have for every Atlas aficionado!

Hardcover, 296 pages, full color. Cover price $59.99.
