MAD ARTIST ED HC

(W) Harvey Kurtzman (A) Wally Wood (CA) Harvey Kurtzman

Celebrate the 60th anniversary of MAD in a BIG way! Before MAD Magazine was read in nearly every household, there was MAD Comics.

This very special Artist's Edition features nearly 20 incredible stories and a dozen classic covers-Every issue of MAD from #1 to #18 is represented by either a cover or story (and often both!) and is scanned from the actual original art and printed same-size as drawn-A massive 15 x 22 inches! If you are a fan of MAD, or just great cartooning, this is the Artist's Edition for you!

MARILYN MANOR #1

CVR A ZARCONE

(W) Magdalene Visaggio (A) Marley Zarcone (CA) Marley Zarcone

Where were you in '81? When the White House goes dark for 17 days in August, the president's spoiled daughter and her best friend Abe-who claims to be possessed by the spirit of Abe Lincoln-throw a rager at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, unearthing long dead historical figures and government secrets that are better off buried. Sex, drugs, rock 'n' roll séances, and secret passageways lead to time-bending mystical romps where past and present collide. But at what cost to Marilyn Kelleher, the world at large, and music television? Uniting the red-hot Eisner-nominated talents of writer Magdalene Visaggio (Eternity Girl, Kim and Kim) and artist Marley Zarcone (Shade, the Changing Girl, Effigy) for the first time, MARILYN MANOR explores identity, classism, appropriation, and friendship. It's a rollicking, neon party gone out of bounds when we need it most-set just in time for the greatest pop cultural marriage to date: MTV.    "We've been trying to capture the feel, the excitement, the energy of the rise of the New Romantics, of the decade that embraced excess and excitement in hugely over-the-top ways, and filled it with chaos and insanity. This is the weirdest thing I've ever written in the best way possible, like an apocalypse directed by John Hughes."

MICHAEL WM KALUTA STARSTRUCK ARTIST ED HC

(W) Elaine Lee (A) Michael William Kaluta (CA) Michael William Kaluta

Michael Kaluta is one of the most revered and versatile artist's in comics and illustration. He is frequently recognized as the definitive artist of The Shadow, has been praised for his Lord of the Rings paintings, and illustrated the Metropolis novel. He was also part of the legendary artist's collective (along with Jeff Jones, Barry Windsor-Smith, and Bernie Wrightson) known simply as THE STUDIO. But if any project is closest to the artist's heart it would be Starstruck, an ongoing space-fantasy that began in the pages of Heavy Metal Magazine in 1982, was a Marvel Comics Graphic Novel in 1984, and several series' of comics from various publishers in the 1980s and '90s. Starstruck is still a work in progress and IDW Publishing will release a new series in early 2017, with expanded stories by Lee and Kaluta.
