TARZAN AND THE MARTIAN LEGION<br />
In Quest of Zonthron. Our Highest <strong>Recommendation</strong>. By<br />
Jake Saunders. Art by Tom Grindberg, Michael C. Hoffman<br />
and Craig Mullins. As befits the ambitious scope of the story,<br />
the artistic presentation is unparalleled. One-hundred-thirty<br />
new illustrations were commissioned for this opus, with contributions<br />
by Thomas Grindberg, Michael C. Hoffman, and<br />
Craig Mullins, on archival, acid-free paper, bound in leather<br />
(banth and thoat) in one giant volume.<br />
Published late in 2014, until now this was only available from<br />
the publisher. We are pleased to be the exclusive second<br />
source for the amazing project, which was co-published<br />
with the well-respected Russ Cochran. In 1913, Edgar Rice<br />
Burroughs contemplated penning a crossover tale uniting<br />
his two greatest creations, Tarzan and John Carter of Mars.<br />
He ultimately gave the idea up as unworkable, concerned<br />
that he couldn’t do justice to both heroes in one novel. Russ<br />
Cochran, 2014.<br />

Welcome to our Christmas Catalog! We put this into your hands as early as possible,<br />
to give you plenty of time to get those special gifts, whether for family, friends,<br />
or yourself! Allow extra delivery time as the holiday approaches. Orders normally<br />
take 7-10 days in the mail, but during Christmas the Post Office and UPS often take<br />
longer. Our rush service can reduce this to 3-4 days. Place your order before noon<br />
our time (PST), Monday-Friday, and it ships the same day. Gift Certificates are<br />
available for as little as $10, and then in $10 increments.<br />
2016 Calendars are here, beginning on page 23. We’ve got three pages of <strong>Outstanding</strong><br />
Christmas Gifts. I selected my favorite items that also might make good<br />
gifts, Page 28.<br />
PS Art Books Pre-Code Classics and Harvey Horrors hardcovers are now on<br />
sale. Page 13. There’s also an entire page of super-hero Poker Deck Playing<br />
Cards, more good stocking stuffers. Page 18.<br />
This catalog has many new items that came out during San Diego Comic-Con in<br />
July, including some great signed sketchbooks. A few sketchbooks and limited<br />
editions are already gone. That’s why we recommend you get our weekly email (the<br />
E-Blast!) or our bi-weekly, printed newsletter. These keep you current on new items.<br />
They also include News & Notes by me, and occasional book reviews. See sign up<br />
instructions elsewhere or ask with your order.<br />
I’m very pleased to feature Eyvind Earle (1916-2000) on our cover. He created<br />
more than 800 Christmas designs for holiday cards, beginning in the 1930s. In the<br />
1950s he worked for Walt Disney on many shorts and feature films, including Peter<br />
Pan and Lady and the Tramp. His masterpiece was Walt Disney’s Sleeping<br />
Beauty. He set the tone for the entire film. Later on Earle specialized in amazing<br />
paintings of trees, coastlines, mountains and valleys, particularly in Monterey, <strong>Carmel</strong><br />
and Big Sur area of California. His family has been producing beautiful limited<br />
edition art books since the early 1990s. We’re pleased to offer these again. ~BUD<br />
PORTFOLIO<br />
The Complete Drawings by Mark Schultz<br />
Our Highest <strong>Recommendation</strong>. A massive, oversized<br />
collection showcasing seven transformative years. From 2005<br />

well as the cover illustrations and special bookplates, now<br />
reformatted and fine-tuned with stunningly detailed and clear<br />

STORMS AT SEA<br />
Our Highest <strong>Recommendation</strong>.<br />
By Mark Schultz.<br />
This is Mark’s new, heavily<br />
illustrated novella that <strong>explores</strong><br />
the border between<br />
what we want to believe<br />
is true and the reality that<br />
we’d prefer to keep <strong>concealed</strong>.<br />
From a crime-fiction<br />
framework, it opens up<br />
into a breathtaking journey<br />
through cryptic history,<br />
cautionary science-fiction and a speculative vision of the deep<br />
future! Flesk, 2015.<br />

ART OF PETAR MESELDZIJA<br />
Imported from The Netherlands.<br />
Our Highest <strong>Recommendation</strong>.<br />
Petar Meseldzija first came to our<br />
attention in the pages of an early<br />
Spectrum and wowed me from the<br />
very beginning. This is his first<br />
comprehensive collection. His style<br />
resembles artists like Rembrandt,<br />
Frank Frazetta & Alan Lee--he’s a<br />
classical painter but with an ability<br />
to create dramatic scenes, and to<br />
imagine the same, that indeed makes me think of Frazetta.<br />

BOOK OF GIANTS By Petar Meseldzija<br />

allowed unparalleled access into the<br />
land of giants. 16 paintings and nearly<br />
90 drawings bring to life secrets<br />
uncovered, going back to ancient<br />
times. He frees giants from the murky<br />
abyss of myth and a forgotten past,<br />
with gorgeous artwork that reminds<br />
one of Brian Froud and the Golden<br />

BENJAMIN-CONSTANT Marvels and Miracles of<br />
Orientalism<br />
Recommended. This fascinating<br />
book studies Jean-Joseph<br />
Benjamin-Constant (French, 1845-<br />
1902), one of the great Orientalist<br />
painters. Renowned during his time<br />
but little known today, he created<br />
massive architectural compositions<br />
based on travels to Spain and Morocco,<br />
in which he set fierce-looking<br />
Moors and dispassionate<br />
odalisques (Harem girls, occasionally undraped). Montreal<br />

Yezbick. Harlan Ellison calls Carlson “a<br />

story behind one of the most innovative<br />
and under-rated Golden Age artists,<br />
classic children’s illustrators, and nonsense poets in American<br />
history. For more than 50 years, George Carlson created<br />
thousands of distinctive and dynamic cartoons, comics,<br />
riddles, and games that thrilled both children and adults with<br />
their fanciful spirit and nonsensical humor.<br />

INCREDIBLE HERB TRIMPE<br />
On Sale! Save $5! By Dewey Cassell<br />
and Aaron Sultan. From running the first<br />
photostat machine at Marvel Comics to<br />
being the first to illustrate Wolverine, no<br />
other member of the Marvel Bullpen had<br />
such a varied and remarkable career<br />
as Herb Trimpe. He drew licensed characters<br />
based on toys such as G.I. Joe,<br />
Godzilla, and Transformers, which went<br />
on to become blockbuster movies. He<br />
drew runs of super-heroes like Iron Man,<br />
Defenders, Captain Britain, and even Marvel’s flagship character<br />
Spider-Man. But he’s best known for his definitive eightyear<br />
stint drawing the Incredible Hulk. This book, produced<br />
with Herb’s full cooperation just prior to his recent passing,<br />
chronicles the life and art of Trimpe through his own voice,<br />
as well as the voices of friends and colleagues like Stan Lee,<br />
Tom DeFalco, Roy Thomas, John Romita, Bill Peckmann,<br />
Sal Buscema, Joe Sinnott, Larry Hama, Doug Moench,<br />
Eliot Brown, Len Wein, Ron Frenz, Steve Englehart, and<br />
his son Alex Trimpe. Their testimony to his talent and his<br />
legacy of artwork leave no wonder why he has been dubbed<br />
“The Incredible Herb Trimpe.” Twomorrows, 2015.<br />

MELODY A Story of A Nude Dancer<br />
On Sale! Save $3! By Sylvie Rancourt. In 1980, Sylvie<br />
Rancourt and her boyfriend moved to Montreal from rural<br />
Northern Quebec. With limited<br />
formal education or training,<br />
they had a hard time finding<br />
employment, so Rancourt began<br />
dancing in strip clubs. Until<br />
now, the Rancourt drawn-andwritten<br />
comics have never been<br />
published in English. These stories<br />
are compelling without ever<br />
being voyeuristic or self-pitying,<br />
and her drawings are formally<br />
innovative while maintaining a<br />
refreshingly frank and engaging<br />
clarity. Whether she’s divulging<br />
her first experiences dancing for an audience or sharing<br />
moments from her life at home, her storytelling is straightforward<br />
and never sensationalized. With a knowing wink<br />
at the reader, Rancourt shares a world that, in someone<br />
else’s hands, might be scandalous or seedy, but in hers is<br />
fully realized, real, and often funny.<br />

R CRUMB’S SEX OBSESSIONS<br />
From the very beginning, even before the<br />
sexual revolution made Robert Crumb<br />
the world’s most celebrated underground<br />
cartoonist, he felt compelled to commit<br />
his sexual fantasies to paper. Once upon<br />
a time, he’d destroy them, fearful of others<br />
discovering his quirky tastes. Then he<br />
found that baring his soul provided a sort<br />
of therapy, and since has memorialized<br />
every desire. Taschen, 2015.<br />

JEFFREY JONES IDYL I’M AGE<br />
Highly Recommended. Never before<br />
collected in its entirety: Idyl, which<br />
appeared as one-page vignettes in<br />
National Lampoon. AND the successor<br />
I’m Age, 36 more one-page “stories” that<br />
began in 1981 in Heavy Metal. Surreal,<br />
philosophical, strange, sexy strips starring<br />
ethereal naked ladies uttering deep<br />
truths...or nonsense. You decide.<br />
Grant, 2015. Mature Readers.<br />
