The definitive biography of the visionary publisher of Famous Monsters of Filmland, the magazine that inspired filmmakers Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, Joe Dante, and many more. This heavily illustrated biography features eye-opening ― often outrageous ―anecdotes about Warren, a larger-than-life figure whose ability as a publisher, promoter, and provocateur make him a fascinating figure. In addition to Forrest J. Ackerman’s Famous Monsters of Filmland, he published Help!, a magazine created by MAD’s Harvey Kurtzman, which featured early work by John Cleese, Gloria Steinem, Terry Gilliam, Robert Crumb, and Diane Arbus; Creepy and Eerie magazines, with covers by painter Frank Frazetta and comics art by Steve Ditko, Wallace Wood, Bernie Wrightson, Al Williamson, and many others. His most famous co-creation, the character Vampirella, debuted in her own magazine in 1969, and continues to be published today.

Lock your doors and gather close . . . if you dare! Once a rising TV journalist, Jerri Bartman has returned to her small Midwest hometown station. Demoted to hosting the nightly Creature Feature, Jerri's professional humiliation is eclipsed by the discovery that her new job comes with a secret, supernatural duty. Her missing predecessor, Count Crowley, was one of the last "Appointed" hunters of monsters. Yes. Monsters. They're real and they're hell bent on controlling the news and information consumed by humans. Everything we've ever been taught about monsters is a lie and Jerri's only possible advisor is a senile male chauvinist. It's 1983 and the outlook for humanity is getting . . . gnarly and their only hope is an alcoholic, acerbic horror host from Missouri. David Dastmalchian's authorial comics debut with artist Lukas Ketner--this terrifying trade collects issues #1-#4 of the Dark Horse Comics series Count Crowley: Reluctant Midnight Monster Hunter!

Although he is most remembered for his vast collection of science fiction memorabilia; his influential magazine, Famous Monsters of Filmland; and his frequent sci-fi convention appearances, Forrest J Ackerman (1916-2008) also left a sizeable body of work in print. An introductory biographical section traces Ackerman's early enthusiasm for pulp magazines and film productions of a fantastic nature, his rise to prominence in "fandom," his acquisition of memorabilia, his work as a literary agent, the founding of his landmark magazine in 1958, and his friendship with a number of performers and personnel from genre films. The extensive bibliography includes listings of books, published letters, articles, fiction, verse, speeches, screenplays, comics, discography, liner notes, and periodicals edited and published by Ackerman. A thorough filmography, a selected listing of nationally televised appearances, and rare photographs of Ackerman throughout his lifetime complete this definitive catalog of one of science fiction's most interesting personalities.

In the once-dominant and still-popular world of monster magazines, one name ruled for a long time..... but trademark rights prevent me from telling you that name. Still, you know - right? This volume contains first four issues of that famous magazine, and celebrate everything MONSTER. From the classics of Lon Chaney, Jr., Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff and others, to the "modern" late 50s starts such as Vincent Price, this is a treasure-trove of the best of the worst that movies had to offer during its heyday. Originally published in 1958 as a one-shot, before long James Warren and Forrest J. Ackerman had a hit on their hands. Now hundreds of issues have been published, although it is now (sadly) more an online endeavor. Fortunate for the print-magazine fan, the first 21 issues of this magazine did not have the copyright renewed and therefore fell into the public domain - - and so Gwandanaland Comics is proud (and legally able) to bring you those issues! ISSUES #1-8 GWANDANALAND COMICS(TM): We specialize in character collections - many for the first time in print; we also publish individual issues from the past as well as complete comic title series'. Our books are not digitally remastered; we use images from actual comics, and make only minor adjustments to bring out their best characteristics without losing the authentic feel - it is rarely perfect, but we believe it is exciting. We take your requests and create special collections never gathered together before! At Gwandanaland Comics we take the extra time to give you the best quality possible! GWANDANALAND COMICS(TM) wishes everyone to know the value of, and debt owed to two Websites which have made sure that public domain and other comics are available to the world. Please visit these sites and enjoy viewing their comic files.

Five years after the fall of civilization, Josie Revelle and her small band of survivors flee a crumbling Washington DC in search of a more sustainable life. Instead they find burnt-out cities and a countryside poisoned by a mutated, vine-like fungus. They're soon captured by a paramilitary force in thrall to Empress Dawn, a former TV star turned self-appointed royal highness. Her goal is to seize a cache of desperately needed fuel ... and to wipe out the Unhumans, shadowy beings thought responsible for spreading a fatal infection as well as for cultivating the blight swallowing the landscape.Josie begins to question the nature of the Unhumans and the true intentions of the empress, but before she can act, a horde of barbarians storms in, bringing chaos and tearing Josie's band apart. She must now choose a side. One that could force her to wage war against her closest friends.At once a savage survival story and an exploration of honesty and friendship, Generation 0: Unhumans delivers an intricately plotted, dark apocalyptic adventure you won't want to put down. Content warning: graphic/disturbing violence, profanity, and sexual situations. Suggested 14+
