PUBLISHER: FANTAGRAPHICS BOOKS PAGES: 280 COLOR or B&W: COLOR CONDITION: NEW DESCRIPTION: (W) Bill Everett The Goddess of Love...and SF horror: The eagerlyanticipated single volume collecting the 10 rareissues of the overstuffed Venus comics!In the late 1940s, the first half of the Venus series from MarvelComics predecessors Timely and Atlas Comics was published asa lighthearted romance comic about the goddess Venus takinga job on Earth at a beauty magazine. Never a company to missa trend, Atlas began introducing more science fiction elementsin the 1950s, and eventually turned Venus' dating adventuresinto a straight-out horror anthology.Collected here, 70 years later and for the first time ever, isthat swift-changing second half of the 19-issue run. Future Marvelstars Bill Everett (seven issues) and Werner Roth (three issues) take Venus toheights of four-color weirdness and pre-Code horror ghastliness. Everett is givenfree rein and seizes the opportunity: writing, drawing, and lettering twenty ghoulishand goofy masterpieces, including classics like "Hangman's House," "The Day VenusVanished," "The House of Terror," "The Sealed Spectors," Tidal Wave of Terror," andthe phantasmagorical "Cartoonist's Calamity!" These stories showcase the brilliantdraftsmanship and storytelling of Everett, one of the giants of the 1940s and '50scomic book industry. His slick, fluid line rendered at Timely/Atlas, from his seminalgod-child Prince Namor, the Sub-Mariner, to the atomic age Marvel Boy, is someof the finest pre-Code horror this side of E.C.'s Graham Ingels.Series editor Dr. Michael J. Vassallo assisted in the compilation of Venus forMarvel 13 years ago, and Fantagraphics is delighted to publish the horror half asthe second title in The Fantagraphics Atlas Comics Library.
