Cover by Neal Adams, Jim Steranko, and Barry Windsor-Smith. Back Cover by Jim Steranko. In 1969, with its revolutionary superhero line well established, Marvel took a chance on the kind of supernatural, EC-style anthology series that had been banned since the formation of the Comics Code in the 1950s. Tower of Shadows featured a staggering array of artists and writers, including Neal Adams, Jim Steranko, Barry Windsor-Smith, John Buscema, Gene Colan, Wally Wood, Stan Lee, Roy Thomas, John Romita, Johnny Craig, Marie Severin, Gerry Conway, and Bernie Wrightson, to name a few. Freed from the conventions of the superhero adventure, these creators brought their storytelling skills to a more quietly sinister genre, producing atmospheric gems of twisted suspense and sardonic horror. Not only do these nine issues feature Marvels best creators working at their peak, but Tower of Shadows is one of the lost, never-collected Marvels. In the first of a new series of Lost Marvels, Fantagraphics and Marvel join forces to introduce these pages to a new generation of readers and restore this series to its rightful place in comics history. This gorgeous volume brings every Tower of Shadows story and cover to life in vivid color and features background and analysis by comics journalist Michael Dean. Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 178 pages, full color. Cover price $34.99.

Volume 2 - 1st printing. "Howard Chaykin: Vol. 1!" Written by Howard Chaykin, Mark Gruenwald, Peter Sanderson, Len Wein, David Michelinie, and Garth Ennis. Art by Howard Chaykin, Al Milgrom, Kerry Gammill, Bob Layton, John Burns, and Terry Austin. Cover by Howard Chaykin. Introduction by Brannon Costello. When Howard Chaykin broke into comics in the 1970s, there was nothing quite like him. His original characters Dominic Fortune and Monark Starstalker took classic pulp heroes and ran them through a postmodern blender. This new volume contains retro-science-fiction bounty hunter Monark Starstalkers debut appearance and all Chaykin's color-comic-book Dominic Fortune stories, including the characters unexpurgated Max series, published a generation later. Completing the package is the collision between pulp heroism and the devastating, bloody realities of World War I in Chaykin's 111-page collaboration with The Boys writer Garth Ennis on War Is Hell: The First Flight of the Phantom Eagle. The collection is introduced by author and comics scholar Brannon Costello. This second title in Fantagraphics Lost Marvels series collects some of the most exciting, sought-after work by Howard Chaykin from 1975 to 2008. Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 256 pages, full color. Cover price $49.99.
