AUGUST MARVEL 1602: 10TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION HC AUTHOR: NEIL GAIMAN ARTIST: ANDY KUBERT ISBN: 978-0-7851-5368-9 PUB MONTH: AUGUST PRICE: $29.99 US / $32.99 CAN SUBJECT CATEGORY: OVERSIZED Award-winning writer Neil Gaiman presents a unique vision of the Marvel Universe…set four hundred years in the past! Classic Marvel icons such as the X-Men, Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four and Daredevil are re-imagined in this intriguing world of 17th-century science and sorcery — instantly familiar to readers, yet subtly different in this new time. Marvel 1602 combines classic Marvel action and adventure with the historically accurate setting of Queen Elizabeth’s reign, to create a unique series unlike any other published by Marvel Comics. Neil Gaiman’s daringly different Marvel tale has stood the test of time and spawned an entire universe of sequels — and now, celebrate the 10th anniversary of the story that started it all with this lush oversized hardcover! Featuring an all-new cover by original series cover artist Scott McKowen! COLLECTING: Marvel 1602 1-8 Comp Title: MARVEL 1602 TPB (NEW PRINTING) ISBN: 978-0-7851-4134-1 - Feb-10 Comp Title: CIVIL WAR HC ISBN:978-0-7851-2178-7 - Oct-08 As the creator of The Sandman for DC Comics, writer Neil Gaiman has won every major award in the comics industry, as well as the prestigious 1991 World Fantasy Award for Best Short Story, the only comic-book writer ever to be awarded this literary honor. Cited by the LA Times as “the greatest epic in the history of comic books,” the ten Sandman collections have sold several million copies and remain in print to this day. Having thus made his mark, Gaiman wrote another highly regarded series for DC with Books of Magic. Also noteworthy was his work on Eclipse Comics’ Miracleman, which he picked up after close friend Alan Moore left the book. In addition, Gaiman collaborated with Terry Pratchett on the wistful apocalypse novel Good Omens and in 1997 wrote the BBC teleplay Neverwhere, a story he later adapted into a novel. Gaiman’s other novels, American Gods and his children’s book Coraline, garnered New York Times best-selling status and international acclaim including the Hugo, Nebula and Bram Stoker Awards. In 2001, Gaiman made his first foray into Marvel Comics with his series Marvel 1602, a series in which Gaiman took the core cast of Marvel’s Silver Age comics, placed them 400 years in the past and retold their stories in his own inimitable way. 108 RATING: RATED T+ TRIM SIZE: 7-1/4 X 10-7/8 PAGE COUNT: 264 TYPES OF ILLUSTRATION: COLOR After an artistic apprenticeship under famed father Joe Kubert, Andy Kubert got his start on DC’s space-opera variations Adam Strange and Warlord, as well as the best-selling crossover Batman vs. Predator in collaboration with brother Adam. Kubert’s Marvel career began with a six-year stint on X-Men — continuing into Thor, Ka-Zar, Ghost Rider and others. He collaborated with Orson Scott Card on Ultimate Iron Man, Neil Gaiman on Marvel 1602 and Paul Jenkins on Wolverine: Origin. Upon his return to DC, he contributed to the Blackest Night and Flashpoint events.
