Lost Marvels Hc No 04 Gil Kane Rarities Vol 01 Jungle Boo Ka-Zar Gulliver & Other Rediscovered Work From The 1970S (Mr)
The Lost Marvels series again delves into the misty margins of MarvelÕs past to shine a light on extraordinary work that has never or rarely been collected for modern readers. This is the first volume of a compendium of some of the legendary Gil KaneÕs finest storytelling. Freed from the conventions of super-hero battles, KaneÕs art is a revelation here, capturing in flamboyant, imaginative detail the classic settings and characters of Rudyard KiplingÕs Jungle Book tales (made even more vibrant by the great P. Craig RussellÕs inking); the origin of Ka-Zar from Astonishing Tales; and episodes of Gullivar Jones, Warrior of Mars, an adaptation by Kane and Roy Thomas of the seminal 1905 SF/Fantasy novel. Plus, a genre-hopping gallery of 100 exciting covers by the artist who almost single-handedly defined the look of 1970s-era Marvel.
