Whitechapel - Neglected older comics that should be collected in book form 2013-05-22T12:25:53-07:00 http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/ Lussumo Vanilla & Feed Publisher Neglected older comics that should be collected in book form http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=319&Focus=8282#Comment_8282 2007-12-16T07:35:32-08:00 2013-05-22T12:25:53-07:00 immaterial http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=870 So. What neglected older comics do you think should get their own TPB or hardcover collection? Or even one of those black and white newsprint phonebooks? Marvel and DC have both got some gems kicking ...
For instance, I'd like to see Warren's Hellstorm collected, perhaps augmented with notes for what he intended to do if the thing had been allowed to continue, as well as the Druid miniseries and whatever scraps of the never-released Satana series still exist. If Marvel doesn't want to be associated with that material, license it to Vertigo and let them run it. Then maybe they can give him Hellblazer back...

For that matter, his Doom 2099 stuff would make a nice phonebook, and they could throw in the short stories he did for 2099 Unlimited, as well as the big one-shots he did redefining the 2099 landscape and establishing the Doom takeover. There's a nice stack of weird comics there that at the very least deserve to be pulled together in one place so that new Ellis fans can be made aware of their existence. And with Ellis having become something of a brand name, isn't there a potential source of revenue for the rights holders there?

Ditko's Charlton Question comics have already been collected in an Archive Edition, but you have to pay $50 and wind up with a bunch of Blue Beetle you didn't want, so it would be nice to see those get their own book, including the Alex Toth Question story. I guess these are of largely historical interest, but even if you're not that big on his art style, Ditko becomes more interesting when you begin to realise how crazy he is. The Question, it turns out, was his dry run for the independent Mr. A strip, inspired by Ayn Rand and as batty and polemical as any Jack Chick tract.

I'd also like to see great backup strips from the 70s collected. Kaluta drew some beautiful Pellucidar comics in the back of various Tarzan comics.

Artist-centric collections would be great, too.

Chaykin did some great Dominic Fortune stuff in different places, some of it (in the Hulk magazine) painted in colour, every bit as beautiful as his American Flagg stuff but in period, allowing him to draw the 40s cars, guns and clothes he loves. He also did some Fafhrd and Gray Mouser, Solomon Kane, Monarch Starstalker, a Nick Fury or two for Marvel Premiere. These need to be pulled together.

The same goes for Michael Golden's early work for DC -- particularly the raft of Batman stuff he did, which was just fluid, atmospheric and stunning. There'd never been anything like it, and it's all buried in that yellowing newsprint.

It's been a while since I read it, but I remember liking the first Knights Of Pendragon series from Marvel U.K., too: Arthurian legend ala Arthur Machen, with a hefty dose of M.R. James style English horror and the odd superhero. The environmentalism might have been a bit heavy handed, but better to deal with the environment than not deal with it. (And better to be pretentious than to not try at all, for that matter).

Speaking of Sax Rohmer, Trina Robbins did a long adaptation of his novel, Dope, that ran in both the black and white and colour incarnations of Eclipse Monthly. I'd love to see that thing collected. Trina's an acquired taste, but I've finally acquired it after years of seeing her stuff in all kinds of different places, including underground comix. Her's is a very stylised, very specific kind of cartooning, nostalgic without actually looking like the stuff it makes you nostalgic for. And she actually had the gumption to point out that a great deal of the undergrounds produced by the peace and love hippies were misogynistic as hell, for which she ultimately wound up taking a lot of heat, despite it being absolutely true.

Speaking of underground comix, I'd love to see a collection of George Metzger's Moondog and related post-fall-of-insdustrial-civilisation-Mother-Earth-News-hippified-sci-fi-fantasy comix, and a good collection of Tim Boxell's bits and pieces from that era, which were scattered throughout his Commies From Mars and elsewhere. He even drew an adaptation of Philip Jose Farmer's porno-horror-mystery Image Of The Beast. Boxell also went under the name Grisly, and he certainly was: very reminiscent of Bissette and Totleben in its queasiness.]]> Neglected older comics that should be collected in book form http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/comments.php?DiscussionID=319&Focus=8326#Comment_8326 2007-12-16T11:25:11-08:00 2013-05-22T12:25:53-07:00 Red Scharlach http://freakangels.com/whitechapel/account.php?u=212 Morrison's Dan Dare story is available as part of a Rian Hughes anthology.

Oh, it sucks all right. It's the comics version of this bullshit we're seeing with music rights and dvd releases. I guess it's down to 70's Marvel never in a million years expecting anyone to have an interest in the comics two months after publication, let alone thirty years later, but it seems to me there needs to be some kind of coming together on this subject of renewing rights already granted when republication time rolls around. They recently released the first season of WKRP in Cincinatti to dvd with all but two or three of the original songs replaced with generic library tracks (for those who might not remember it, the show was about a rock radio station, and they played a lot of music in the course of a single episode), on account of which many of the people who had been clamouring for the release of the thing then swore they would never purchase it, probably killing the potential for any further season sets. It's also holding up China Beach and a raft of others.

I really liked Two Step, shame that ain't out.

@ immaterial, I have a trade of Mark Millar's Saviour, the first four issues I think, that was released at the time. After I got it I kept seeing it used in lots of places in the UK, and on ebay for only a few quid, so I don't think it's that hard to get hold of. It didn't collect the whole series (that was itself unfinished), but to be perfectly honest it wasn't very good, so I wasn't really that fussed. In it Jesus and the anti-christ come to earth, but the anti-christ is a beloved cross between Superman and the British TV presenter Jonathan Ross who dubs himself "Saviour", while Jesus is a homeless bum or something.

I'd like to see Grant Morrison's Kill Your Boyfriend printed up as part of some sort of collection, is there anything else it could go with? His Crack Comics (WE3, Seaguy, Vimanarama)? Other Vertigo Minis?

Um, how "reasonable" was the cost of that project?

Second:
In thinking about this I poked around a bit on Amazon to see what had been published, and was surprised to find several things collected that I now have to obtain (some of the Zot! books, Mr. Monster, and Tim Barela's Leonard & Larry stuff). This make the thread both useful and potentially damaging to my limited finances :-).

Third:
Votes in favor for:
Simon & Kirby Sandman
Kaluta Pellucidar stuff
Chaykin's Marvel stuff. I have a lot of it in my collection but a single volume on high-quality paper would be great.
Baron's Badger stuff: glad to hear it's in the pub queue.
Elementals (why the hell haven't they been collected yet?!?!?!?)

Fourth:
A few of my own:
It's stupid, but I really want the Golden Age Street & Smith Doc Savage stuff in one volume. I read a couple when I was a hatchling and I enjoyed them. I may not like them so much now, but it would be cool to have them . . . .
I'd also like someone to pull all of the Golden Age Destroyer stories together (we're talking Timely Comics era here), mostly for research purposes, but partly because the costume is cooool. . . . It takes a man very comfortable with himself to wear striped pants and skulls. . . .
Inferior Five, anyone?
First Comics' Chronicles of Corum by Baron and Mignola.

And I'm only one book shy of completing my run, but I'd like to see more people reading Shade, the Changing Man, so they need to do a Showcase or otherwise collect more than just the first half-year.

Hellstorm: Prince of Lies
Ellis's Marvel 2099
Hard Time
Resurrection Man
Sleeper
Essential Vertigo: Swamp Thing
Human Target

And at the binder right now:

Ellis's Excalibur (including Pryde and Wisdom)
Fallen Angel v. 1
Sleeper (I gave the first away as a gift)
All of Ellis's random early Marvel work through the Wolverine run

And I'll soon be sending off:

American Virgin
Wildcats 3.0
Runaways v. 2

It's a hell of a lot of fun.
