by Olly MacNamee
Skybound and Scott Dunbier’s Act 4 Publishing has announced their latest Artist’s Edition, and it features some of DC Comics’ most iconic Silver Age Covers and stories, with an introduction by life-long DC fan and comic book expert Mark Waid. An era that rebooted and redefined Superman, The Flash, Green Lantern, and more for the very first time. and all coming in a 15” x 22” hardback this November.
This new DC Silver Age Covers and Stories Artist’s Edition will feature Green Lantern #1, complete stories from The Flash by Carmine Infantino, Superman by Al Plastino from Action Comics #282, Sugar and Spike by Sheldon Mayer, and more. Although with so many great comics to include, I’m not too sure why Suger and Spike get a look-in.
Plus:
“DC Silver Age Covers and Stories Artist’s Edition delivers a stunning look at the era that reshaped comics, featuring over 75 classic covers and iconic artwork by legendary creators like Jack Kirby, Joe Kubert, Carmine Infantino, Curt Swan, Alex Toth, Nick Cardy, and more. This volume includes truly legendary covers, such as Flash #123 (the first ever appearance of Earth-Two) by Carmine Infantino, to the debut of the Silver Age Hawkman in Brave and the Bold #34 by Joe Kubert, the cover of Showcase #17 by Gil Kane that features the very first appearance of Adam Strange, and the unforgettable Flash vs. Superman race from Superman #199 by Infantino. This collection captures some of the most important and influential moments in DC history.”
As ever, this Artist’s Edition is made up of colour3d scans of the original art pages to better reproduce the original artwork as close as possible to the real thing.
DC Silver Age Covers and Stories Artist’s Edition is out in comic book stores on Wednesday, the 4th of November, and in booksellers on Tuesday the 1st of December.
