Sinossi

This new volume in Fantagraphics' and Marvel?s collaborative Atlas Library presents Girl Comics #1-12, a long unseen subversion of romance comics beautifully designed for a new generation of readers!In 1950, Timely/Atlas/Marvel took a typical romance title called Girl Comics and turned it into a sister companion to its successful men?s-adventure comics: an empowering girls?-adventure comic! Mystery, adventure and suspense was promised and delivered! At the hands of a stellar artistic line-up, including John Buscema, Mike Sekowsky, Bill Everett, Joe Maneely, Russ Heath, and Bernard Krigstein, Girl Comics evolved from heart-stricken love stories to hair-raising girl-power thrill rides like ?The Death Plunge!,? ?The House of Shadows!,? ?I was a Murderer?s Daughter!,? ?They Called me a Spy!,? ?The Dead Hands at the Controls,? and ?The Dark Hallway.?This volume also features the story behind the stories, with editor Dr. Michael J. Vassallo?s essays on Marvel publisher Martin Goodman?s enthusiastic relationship with romance comics and magazines at a time when the artform was cementing itself into American youth culture! Cover Artists: Al Hartley, Russ Heath, Pete Tumlinson, Bill LaCava, George Klein, Mike Esposito

ATLAS COMICS LIBRARY HC NO 8 SNAFU

When Harvey Kurtzman and Bill Gaines launched EC'sMad comic book as a warmly received satirical magazine, a flood of imitators soon filled newsstands, but the first and best to follow in Mad'sfootsteps (coinciding with the second issue of Mad magazine) was Snafu, edited and written by Kurtzman'sformer boss: Stan ?The Man? Lee! Snafu was packed with Marvel/Atlas? top humor creators and, following the Mad playbook, filled pages with ad and news spoofs, alongside film, television, and book parodies like ?The Blackboard Forest? by Russ Heath, ?Pete Kelsey'sBooze? and ?Bleed, You Bum!? by Joe Maneely, ?Drugnet? by Howie Post, ?Emily Toast'sEtiquette Page? by John Severin, and ?Snafu'sLovely Ladies? by Bill Everett, with production supervised by Marie Severin. Seen here is some of the most eye-popping work of Maneely'sshort life, including great Hollywood caricatures done in a wash style. In this new volume in our Atlas Library collaboration with Marvel, Fantagraphics is tickled pink to present for the first time, the complete Snafu collection along with a history of Martin Goodman'shumor publications in all genres by editor Dr. Michael J. Vassallo.

ATLAS COMICS LIBRARY NO 3 HC IN THE DAYS OF THE ROCKETS

In the vein of earlier comics-to-multimedia stars Buck Rogers and Flash Gordon, Atlas Comics launched their own pulp hero in 1951, looking ahead to the futuristic year 2000. Across five issues of Space Squadron (and one of Space Worlds), headline talents including George Tuska, Werner Roth and Allen Bellman (with back-up features by Joe Maneely, Christopher Rule, George Klein and Vern Henkel) showed Captain Jet Dixon and his Space Squadron blasting into action, facing cosmic threats like The Armada of Death, The Space Demons, Terror from the Deep, The Temptress of Jupiter, and The Midnight Horror.Come 1953, Hank Chapman and Joe Maneely gazed further into the future, envisioning the distant year 2075 and the adventures of Speed Carter, Spaceman. Scripted throughout by Chapman, Maneely launched and drew the first three issues before handing off one issue each to Mike Sekowsky, George Tuska and Bob Forgione, with back-up features by John Romita, Maneely, and Bill Savage. As other aspects of the Atlas line leaned into the peak of pre-Code horror, the Captain of the Space Sentinels and young cadet Johnny Day battled monstrous aliens with stories including The Space Trap, A Slaughter in Space, Die, Spaceman, Die, and The Thing in Outer Space.Unseen in 70 years, scanned in high resolution, restored to perfection and packaged as one extra-sized, beautiful hardcover volume, In the Days of the Rockets! will open a wormhole to the early cold-war four-color era of futuristic science fantasy.
