They never asked to become super-heroes. But now that they are, they have no choice but to do what super-heroes do best...risk their lives combating the forces of evil wherever they're found. The Blasters were a group of ordinary men and women...until the events chronicled in the pages of INVASION. Fifty human beings were abducted by the Dominion and left alone in a minefield - a minefield filled with experimental explosives that killed all but seven. These seven joined the ranks of metahumans as detailed in the pages of Invasion (1988 DC) #1. With the war over, some accept their powers and run with them. Others just want to forget and resume normal lives. But you know how those forces of evil can be. So when the Spider Guild reveal themselves in their pursuit of the Omega Men, what choice do these reluctant heroes have? That's why they become The Blasters. And that's where the action begins. Written by Peter David, with art by James W. Fry and Robert Campanella. Cover by Fry and Campanella. 52-page one-shot special. Cover price $2.00.

1st printing. "Rockets, Rayguns, Robots, and Rarities from the Golden Age of Space Toys!" By Creators: S. Mark Young & Steve Duin and Mike Richardson. Edited by Chris Warner. Who could have believed that a toy robot made in Japan from scrap tin would one day fetch nearly $70,000 at a Sotheby's auction? Blast Off! chronicles the golden era of space toys, an age of imagination unbound by the more mundane realities of space travel ushered in by Sputnik and the Space Age. Containing hundreds of striking color photos of some of the most beautiful and ofttimes bizarre toys ever created -- many never before seen in print -- Blast Off! unearths the nearly lost histories of these space treasures and the companies that created them. Not limited to the presentation of these unique and fascinating playthings of the past, Blast Off! includes one-of-a-kind prototypes, original packaging and instructions, glimpses into ultra-rare Japanese robot catalogs, long-lost advertisements, vintage comic-strip and pulp-magazine art, and items of every description from every corner of the globe. Blast Off! covers extensively some of the most profound toy and space phenomena of the era, from Buck Rogers to Flash Gordon to the "Space Opera" programs of the infancy of television to a blow-by-blow account of the greatest Tin Robot auction in history. Blast Off! is an essential resource not only for the collector, but for anyone with an appreciation of pop culture -- or just plain fun! Introduction by award-wining author, futurist, and cultural commentator Harlan Ellison. Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 256 pages, full color. Cover price $34.95.
