TWO NEW
DARK HORSE COLLECTIONS RELEASED EARLY, IN TIME FOR BLACK
FRIDAY!
Victor
Santos’s Polar
and Kitchen Sink Books’ The Best of Comix Book to make it to comic
shops in time for the busiest shopping day of the
year!
NOVEMBER 27, MILWAUKIE,
OR—As fans around the world fill out their holiday wish lists, Dark Horse
announces the early release of two of the year’s most anticipated collections in
time for Black Friday!
Polar:
Came from the Cold, by Victor Santos (The Mice Templar),
is a guns-blazing espionage action-adventure in the grand tradition of Jim
Steranko and Frank Miller. This graphic novel is a brutal, fast-tempo story of
revenge that Newsarama says is “as ice-cold as its name.” Though Polar
was originally released as a silent webcomic, Santos has crafted a script
as hard boiled and intriguing as his art for this hardcover
collection.
The
Best of Comix Book: When Marvel Comics Went Underground! is
a
collection of the long-out-of-print underground Comix Book series
(1974–1976), originally edited by Denis Kitchen and Stan Lee for Marvel Comics.
The collection includes work from underground creators such as Joel Beck, Kim
Deitch, Justin Green, Harvey Pekar, Trina Robbins, Art Spiegelman, Skip
Williamson, and S. Clay Wilson. The book features an introduction by Lee, a
foreword by Kitchen, and an essay by James Vance (Kings in Disguise),
accompanied by unpublished artwork, photographs, and correspondence from
Kitchen’s archives.
Both Polar: Came from the
Cold and The Best of Comix Book: When Marvel Comics Went Underground!
move up from an original release date of December 11 to a November 27
on-sale
date.
