1st printing. By Mark Brake. Super-hero fiction has been with us for almost a century; high-octane tales crammed with concepts and contrasting themes, from superpowers and the post-human, to masked vigilantes and immortality. In that time, superwomen have evolved from comic book caricatures (created by men, for men) to stronger representations of female power. THE SCIENCE OF SUPERWOMEN looks at this evolution, from its hypersexualized origins to today's more nuanced diversity, and explores the relationship between superhero film and fiction and the underlying science of our ever-evolving universe.

1st printing. By Anne McCaffrey and Todd J. McCaffrey. From the New York Times bestselling mother-and-son team of Anne McCaffrey and Todd McCaffrey comes the final installment in the riveting Pern saga that began with Todds solo novel, Dragonsblood. Now, with all of Pern imperiled by the aftereffects of a plague that killed scores of dragons and left the planet helpless against the fall of deadly Thread, the only hope for the future lies in the past. There, on an unexplored island, a group of dragonriders led by Xhinna, a brave young woman who rides the blue dragon Tazith, must battle lethal Merows and voracious tunnel-snakes to build a safe home for themselves and the dragons, whose offspring will one day—if they survive—replenish Perns decimated dragon population. But as the first female rider of a blue dragon, and the first female Weyrleader in the history of Pern, Xhinna faces an uphill battle in winning the respect and loyalty of her peers . . . especially after an unforeseen tragedy leaves the struggling colony reeling from a shattering loss. Amid the grieving, one girl, Jirana, blessed—or cursed—with the ability to foresee potential futures, will help Xhinna find a way forward. The answer lies in time . . . or, rather, in timing it: the awesome ability of the dragons to travel through time itself. But that power comes with risks, and by venturing further into the past, Xhinna may be jeopardizing the very future she has sworn to save. Hardcover, 344 pages, Text Only. Cover price $26.00.

Written by Dave Wood and Dick Wood. Art by Jack Kirby and Dick Ayers. Cover by Jack Kirby.

Nineteen hundred and fifty-eight witnessed many noteworthy events: the United States launched its first successful satellite; the plastic hula hoop was put on the market; The Bridge over the River Kwai won 7 Academy Awards; NASA was formerly created; President Dwight Eisenhower and Richard Nixon were in the White House; and Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita was published here in the good ole USA. Tensions were high in every american home as the country was smack dab in the middle of the cold war and the Space Race.

It was in this environment that comic book veteran Jack Kirby, scripters Dick and Dave Wood, and inker Wallace Wood created a space themed comic strip theatrically entitled Sky Masters of the Space Force. This handsome, beautifully crafted strip only ran for a little under two-and-a-half years and even though it's over sixty years old the feature manages to be entertaining and nostalgic.

This reprint of Sky Masters collects the complete daily continuity and boasts the best reproduction of the strip ever.
