Omschrijving
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 Starstalker’s debut appearance and all
Chaykin’s color-comic-book Dominic Fortune stories, including
the character’s 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.
