The Marvel Legacy of Jack Kirby

By: John Rhett Thomas,Various

Jack Kirby earned the nickname "King" over 50 plus years in comics, from co-creating Captain America to the Fantastic Four to Devil Dinosaur. In addition, Jack's explosive layouts, high drama and fantastic imagination helped evolve the art form in ways few others can claim. Now, the House of Ideas explores that work in The Marvel Legacy of Jack Kirby. In essays and commentary, this deluxe, oversized volume reviews the comics, the influence and the times of Kirby, and puts a special focus on the month that changed everything, November 1961. Don't ask- just buy!

Civil War High Commands

By: John Eicher,David Eicher

Based on nearly five decades of research, this magisterial work is a biographical register and analysis of the people who most directly influenced the course of the Civil War, its high commanders. Numbering 3,396, they include the presidents and their cabinet members, state governors, general officers of the Union and Confederate armies (regular, provisional, volunteers, and militia), and admirals and commodores of the two navies. Civil War High Commands will become a cornerstone reference work on these personalities and the meaning of their commands, and on the Civil War itself. Errors of fact and interpretation concerning the high commanders are legion in the Civil War literature, in reference works as well as in narrative accounts. The present work brings together for the first time in one volume the most reliable facts available, drawn from more than 1,000 sources and including the most recent research. The biographical entries include complete names, birthplaces, important relatives, education, vocations, publications, military grades, wartime assignments, wounds, captures, exchanges, paroles, honors, and place of death and interment. In addition to its main component, the biographies, the volume also includes a number of essays, tables, and synopses designed to clarify previously obscure matters such as the definition of grades and ranks; the difference between commissions in regular, provisional, volunteer, and militia services; the chronology of military laws and executive decisions before, during, and after the war; and the geographical breakdown of command structures. The book is illustrated with 84 new diagrams of all the insignias used throughout the war and with 129 portraits of the most important high commanders.

Collects Marvel Two-In-One (1974) #47-60, Annual (1976) #4. Benjamin J. Grimm — the world’s one and only Ever-Lovin’ Blue-Eyed Thing — doesn’t shy away from any fight.

But he’s not fighting alone: The Thing will battle alongside Jack of Hearts, Doctor Strange, the Inhumans, Moon Knight and the Human Torch — as well as the Marvel Universe’s greatest poker club! But all this action is just a prelude to Gruenwald, Macchio, Byrne and Pérez’s all-time classic: the PROJECT PEGASUS SAGA! The Project is part advanced energy research facility and part super villain prison — and that makes for one dangerous (and exciting!) combination when the inmates break out! Plus: Don’t miss the incorrigible Impossible Man’s attack on the Marvel Bullpen!
