SIMON & KIRBY HC LIBRARY (2025)

"From the Golden Age of the comic book era comes an unrivalled collection of terrifying tales that thrilled readers and appalled a nation! Their work in the legendary title Black Magic was acclaimed by readers. Also included here are the Simon and Kirby stories from the experimental terror title Strange World of Your Dreams. For the first time, all of the stories written and drawn by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby themselves, as well as a selection of rarely seen collaborations, are collected in one huge hardcover edition. "

"Simon and Kirby's science fiction stories are an unimaginable treasure trove that have remained largely uncollected - until now! Their first collaboration, Blue Bolt, was first published in 1940 and changed the way comics were produced. They returned to science fiction in the 1950s, producing Sputnik-era adventures in collaboration with other legendary creators: Al Williamson, Angelo Torres, Reed Crandall, and Wally Wood. This volume presents for the first time in 70 years the first Blue Bolt story by Joe Simon and includes an all new introduction by writer and artist Dave Gibbons (Watchmen)."
