Bill Ward HC (2024 Fantagraphics) Studio Edition 1-1ST NM- 9.2

1st printing. Vintage glamour girl artist extraordinaire Bill Ward gets the full Fantagraphics Studio Edition treatment featuring Ward's most polished, fully realized pinups from the 1950s and 1960s. Bill Ward's glamour girls were the staples of countless men's and humor magazines, where they shared the pages with cult models like Bettie Page, Tina Louise, and Julie Newmar, and cartoons by fellow "good girl" artists such as Archie's Dan Decarlo and Playboy's Jack Cole. What set Ward apart - and above - his talented contemporaries in terms of sheer image-making was his use of the conte crayon. When drawn on simple newsprint stock, this potent combination created Ward's trademark gossamer sheen on his women's thigh-high stockings. This Fantagraphics Studio edition showcases the best of Ward's Humorama work and includes a healthy number of what became known as his "telephone girls." Tame by today's standards, Ward's telephone girls were always caught in candid moments when they just happened to be talking on the phone dressed in gossamer lingerie in innocently provocative poses. Most of the images in this volume were drawn between 1955 and 1965 when Ward was at the height of his skill. They have been scanned in super high resolution from original art and reproduced to highlight every sheen and accentuate every curve to its fullest. The book not only reproduces more than 150 of Ward's most beautifully rendered illustrations, but also serves as a time capsule to a more innocent moment in pop culture when these images were shocking. The Fantagraphics Studio Edition also features an introduction by fashion/ style icon and burlesque superstar Dita Von Teese. An original pinup art collector herself, Dita was mostly recently featured in Taylor Swift's music video "Bejeweled." Alex Chun is a Los Angeles-based writer/editor focusing on all things pop culture. Dita Von Teese is the brightest star in burlesque since Gypsy Rose Lee. As style icon and muse to artists and photographers, she has appeared on magazine covers and on the runways for the world's top designers. Hardcover, 180 pages, full color. Cover price $175.00.

Label #2748127018

Written by Gail Simone Art by Nicola Scott & Doug Hazlewood Cover by Stephane Roux Guest-starring the Secret Six! The Secret Six cross paths with the Birds of Prey, just as Spy Smasher takes the dismantling of Oracle's operation into her own hands! ? 32 pg, FC Aaron Settle, Lone Star Regional Manager - "Birds of Prey 104 continues the ongoing storyline where Oracle has lost control of the team. As the new Spy Master takes over direction of the team, they find themselves on the trail of an old Soviet Rocket Red suit of armor. The problem is the owner of the armor has hired the Secret Six to protect the armor. Since the Secret Six is currently without a book of their own, it's cool to see them get some featured time in this book. This storyline will lead to the introduction of the newest member of the Six (after their last mini-series, the team is actually down to five members). There is also a great cliffhanger ending and the return of a beloved DC character in this issue. If you're a fan of the Secret Six or Birds of Prey this is a great book to pick up."
