WEREWOLF Graphic Novel

 by Richard Corben

World acclaimed artist 

The legend of the lycanthrope–a human turned feral by a blood curse and transformed into the most savage of predatory beasts–is as old as recorded history . . . and as tantalizing as it is terrifying.

Internationally acclaimed artist and illustrator Richard Corben has been bringing his dark and viscerally brilliant vision to comics, graphic novels, and other art forms for more than four decades. And now, legend meets legend, as Corben turns his masterful hand and gut-wrenching signature style to this bloodcurdling collection of tales devoted to the monster that walks like a man, howls like a hellhound, and hungers for the hunt.

A collection of lycanthrope stories in Richard Corbens inimitable style, collected from Creepy, Heavy Metal and various underground comix. Dead Hill, The Beast of Wolfton, The Spirit of the Beast, Roda and the Wolf, Lycanklutz, Change Into Something Comfortable, and Fur Trade.

With a lot of tracks, rare interviews from performers (like Siouxsie And The Banshees and Psychedelic Furs) and a great narrator THE CD ALONE is worth the price of the book.

This 1989 edition combines two previous publications, Jeremy Brood: Relativity (1982) and its follow-up Fantagor Presents Brood (1983), into a single seamless tale. It's in color, the kind of color that pushed the state of the printing art in the early 1980s. Corben is said to have pushed the color printing technology of his time

Jan Strnad and Rich Corben make an excellent team. Corben's artwork is top-notch as always, and Strnad's storytelling keeps your interest.

RICHARD CORBEN DEN NEVERWHERE GRAPHIC NOVEL HEAVY METAL OOP UNCENSORED BARBARIAN

Neverwhere

(Den #1)

by 

World acclaimed artist Corben spent over five years creating more than 500 individual paintings for his masterpiece. This enchanting visual epic will be ranked among the great classics of fantasy.

Neverwhere (originally serialized in Heavy Metal magazine, and adapted into the animated movie of the same name) was one of the works that demonstrated the potential of comics as a medium not solely the province of kids. Corben's powerhouse draftsmanship, innovative color palette (the result of his painstaking hand-separation technique), and visceral, fleshy figures, sucks the reader in and never lets you go. Rich in homages to pulpsters Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard, and ribald, frank sensuality, Neverwhere is a timeless grown up fantasy epic. 

The saga of Den is a fantasy series about the adventures of a young underweight man who travels to Neverwhere, a universe taking inspirational nods from Robert E. Howard's Hyborian Age, Edgar Rice Burroughs's Barsoom and H. P. Lovecraft's horror dimensions. There, the man becomes an enormously endowed muscled barbarian warrior who has sexy adventures in a world of outrageous dangers, hideous monsters, and buxom women who lustfully throw themselves at him.

MUHAMMAD ALI: A PORTRAIT IN WORDS AND PHOTOGRAPHS WILFRID SHEED BOXING GREATEST!




Muhammad Ali: A Portrait in Words and Photographs Book

by 
1975


COLLECTOR'S ITEM!
OUT OF PRINT


Lavishly illustrated biography of Ali. published at the height of his boxing fame. 

out of print although some consider it to be one of the best things ever published about Ali. It's a mistake to measure its value solely on the quality of the photographs (which are extraordinary). Sheed's essay is of definite interest. Unlike many of the more well-known, but slightly hagiographic Ali biographies in print, Sheed manages to balance his obvious admiration for the book's subject while at the same time presenting a critical view of him and the forces that created his mythology

Wilfred Sheeds book about boxing legend Muhammed Ali is a great colour pictorial report which contains many great photo's of the great fights of muhammed ali against Sonny Liston, Joe frazier and George Foremann, but also shows ali as the family man and religious and (political) activist. A must for every box fan and not that expensive and still sensational.

loved the large colorful pictures, especially a 2 page layout of Ali glaring disdainfully at a retreating George Foreman. The pictures alone make the book a worthy purchase.

JAMES BOND UNOFFICIAL FILM COMPANION 007 BOOK SEAN CONNERY ROGER MOORE BROSNAN!!

Kiss Kiss Bang! Bang! The Unofficial James Bond 007 Film Companion


COLLECTOR'S ITEM!
OUT OF PRINT

The unofficial guide to James Bond on screen analyzes every Bond performance, from Sean Connery's pantherish assassin (introduced in 1962 as Dr. No) to Pierce Brosnan's elegant and wry portrayal. Along the way, we consider actors George Lazenby, Timothy Dalton, Roger Moore, as well as Bond appearances in other films -- such as the spy spoof Casino Royale, starring David Niven. There's a wealth of top secret information for fans of the inimitable 007.

Now updated, the Alan Barnes and Marcus Hearn's KISS KISS BANG! BANG! is an essential companion book on the cinematic world of James Bond. I like the way the authors choose to take 10 essential elements film by film and critique them. KISS KISS BANG! BANG! is quite insightful and interesting reading. I also enjoy the very handsome layout of the book, which only enhances the reader's interest. The book is also profusely illustrated with very unique photographs not associate with other official books on the cinematic James Bond. This is a well thought out and well-intentioned book. I highly recommend it. If you are a James Bond fan it is quite essential. Great cover.

KING KONG HISTORY OF A MOVIE ICON BOOK MONSTER FAY WRAY PETER JACKSON FILM APE!!





King Kong: The History of a Movie Icon from Fay Wray to Peter Jackson


COLLECTOR'S ITEM!
OUT OF PRINT

He is one of the most amazing, popular, and iconic characters in the history of motion pictures. His 1933 debut was a legendary piece of pure cinema simultaneously a terrifying monster movie, epic fairy tale, tragic love story, and deeply resonant cultural myth. His name is King Kong. Ray Morton's King Kong The History of a Movie Icon is the first book to chronicle the making of all seven feature films in which the character of Kong has appeared, including the hotly anticipated Peter Jackson version. It is generously illustrated with photographs, production art, and promotional materials from the author's extensive private collection. Morton has interviewed the surviving members of each major film. A colorful overview of the tremendous amount of collectible Kong merchandise is also on view for all the fans of Kongdom to devour.

Script magazine columnist Morton, who views King Kong as "an enduring cultural icon," was captivated at age eight by the giant gorilla, and his "Kong-mania went into overdrive" with the 1976 Dino De Laurentiis version. In an effort to survey all feature films in which Kong appears, Morton interviewed surviving cast and crew members, visited archives and trekked to film locations, documenting everything from ape suits, budget woes and optical effects to "Kongs That Never Were." The lengthy opening chapter recaps the making of the 1933 film in exhaustive detail, illustrated with dramatic conceptual art and test shots; an equal amount of space is given to the 1976 remake. Shorter chapters review "The Son of Kong," "King Kong vs. Godzilla," "King Kong Escapes" and "King Kong Lives." Peter Jackson's forthcoming version gets only 14 pages, but fans dazzled by this book's 100 color and b&w illustrations (storyboards, stills, production art, collectibles) and comprehensive coverage of past Kongs won't complain.
