THE ROCKETEER GRAPHIC NOVEL DAVE STEVENS WALT DISNEY ECLIPSE HARLAN ELLISON RARE


THE ROCKETEER GRAPHIC NOVEL. written and illustrated by DAVE STEVENS.

Original 80's version, published by Eclipse Comics.

Introduction by HARLAN ELLISON. filled with lavish full color illustrations.

The Rocketeer is best known for the classic Disney movie, which was adapted faithfully from the original comic books.

Dave Stevens’ Rocketeer is a labor of love, indulged by fans because it’s the best chance we’re ever likely to have of seeing more than covers and posters from this meticulous and beautiful artist.

The Rocketeer of the title is Cliff Secord, a young pilot who lives in a world Stevens has crafted from 1930s pulp fiction and 1940s whimsy. It’s a world of rocket jetpacks, gangsters, high adventure and model girl-friends who look exactly like 1950s pinup Betty Page. The period feel of the book is pure nostalgia, the plots light but perfectly weighted, and the art is a dream.

Following Cliff’s high-flying adventures in grand style.

IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!

Highly recommended.

This item was never sold in any mass market retail outlet and could only be purchased in comic book specialty stores.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION


AIRBOY #5 COMIC BOOK. FEATURING THE LATE DAVE STEVENS' LEGENDARY VALKYRIE COVER!
Featuring characters such as Iron Ace, Skywolf, Misery, and Wolfmark, Airboy has the action and style of an old Buck Rogers serial. At the same time it goes places that Buck would never have gone, such as to Bogantilla, a dictatorship strikingly familiar to certain Central American countries. In this and other adventures, Airboy faces not only the traditional super-bad guys, but also the more down-to-earth evils of civil war, corrupt and oppressive governments, and the cold-war clashing of third-world armies used as pawns by the world’s super-powers.

This is an extremely rare issue, published in 1986 by ECLIPSE COMICS.

Highly sought after.
