1st printing. By Mark Evanier. Introduction by Neil Gaiman. Art and Cover by Jack Kirby. Back Cover by Alex Ross. Jack Kirby created or co-created some of comic books' most popular super heroes, including Captain America, The X-Men, The Hulk, The Fantastic Four, The Mighty Thor, Darkseid, and The New Gods. More significantly, he created much of the visual language for fantasy and adventure comics. Almost everything that was different about comic books began in the 1940s on the drawing table of Jack Kirby. This is his story by one who knew him well - Mark Evanier. First issued in 2008, Kirby: King of Comics was the first overview of the legendary comic book creator's career. It is now available in a smaller, more affordable package, revised and expanded for Kirby's centennial. Softcover, 7 1/2-in. x 10 1/2-in., 240 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $26.99.

2nd and later printings. By Mark Evanier. Introduction by Neil Gaiman. Art and Cover by Jack Kirby. Back Cover by Alex Ross. The first authorized celebration of the one and only King of Comics and his groundbreaking work—now revised and expanded. Introduction by Neil Gaiman, featuring an exclusive, original Alex Ross "Jack Kirby" poster on underside of fold-out cover. Filled with stunning artwork, this gloriously illustrated biography of comics pioneer Jack Kirby by an artist who worked closely with him is a treasure." A landmark work, this is essential reading for comics fans and those who want to better understand the history of the comics medium—or those who just want to enjoy Kirbys incredible artwork. —Publishers Weekly Jack Kirby played a major role in shaping the superhero genre, not only through his innovative, dynamic artwork but through collaborating with Stan Lee to create classic Marvel characters like the Fantastic Four, the Hulk and the X-Men. As a teenager, future television and comics writer Mark Evanier became an assistant to Kirby. Evanier has now written this magnificently illustrated biography of his mentor. Evanier tells Kirbys life story in an informal, entertaining manner and brings Kirbys personality vividly alive: a child of the Great Depression, a creative visionary who struggled most of his life to support his family. The stunning artwork in this book, taken from private collections, makes the case for Kirbys genius. Softcover, 7 1/2-in. x 10 1/2-in., 240 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $26.99.

Art by Ron Wilson, Alan Kupperberg, Chic Stone, Jim Mooney, Jon D'Agostino, and A. Sorted. Cover by Ron Wilson. Introduction by Jim Salicrup. More classic team-ups starring the ever-lovin' blue-eyed Thing from the Fantastic Four! For sixty years and counting, the Thing has been one of Marvels most beloved icons! The exploits of the Fantastic Fours ever-lovin blue-eyed Thing have always been defined by finding the biggest bad guy available and walloping the heck out of him. But the stories that open the penultimate MARVEL TWO-IN-ONE MASTERWORKS take a more urgent tone as the Thing races to find anyone and everyone who can save his compatriot Giant-Man from the ravages of cancer. Its a moving saga that reveals the heart of the FFs gruffest member. The Thing will also give you a dose of the action you crave, battling micro-sized gladiators alongside Ant-Man, slinging suds (and knuckles) with Sandman and even seeing if he can help Machine Man and Jocasta put a dent in Ultrons adamantium exterior! Hardcover, 272 pages, full color. Rated T Cover price $75.00.
