Volume 1 - 1st printing. "Kingtiger Heavy Tank 1942–45!" Written by Hilary Doyle and Tom Jentz. Art by Peter Sarson. As World War II entered its later stages and Germany was forced increasingly onto the defensive, the need for fast-moving mobile forces lessened and the Wehrmacht required better protected and more powerfully armed tanks. After debacles against the T-34, Hitler and the Panzerwaffe were determined not to be unprepared again. The result of this determination was the production of the heaviest and largest tank to see combat during World War II, the Tiger II or Konigstiger (Kingtiger). This title examines this formidable weapon, covering the problems and controversies surrounding its design and production as well as a detailed listing of every unit that was equipped with the Tiger II. Softcover, 48 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $17.95.

Text by Stephen D. Korshak, and J. David Spurlock. Art and Cover by Margaret Brundage.

Starting in 1932, Margaret Brundage changed the look of Fantasy, Science-Fiction and Horror with her alluring sensationalistic covers for the legendary pulp magazine, Weird Tales. Brundage was the first female cover artist of the pulp era and 1st to pain Conan! Decades before the gothic fetish craze, Brundage's provocative paintings featuring semi-nude young women bearing whips, became a major controversy. At Weird Tales peak the magazine's appeal was due as much to Brundage's covers as to the stories by H.P. Lovecraft, Robert Bloch and Robert E. Howard. This is the first book devoted to this noted artist!
