Another New Wood Book!

What a year for Wood! We already have Vanguard's sc-fi collection and IDW's amazing art book (my review is still coming). Coming soon we'll see the Galaxy illustrations book, Fantagraphics' EC stories volume and the US version of last year's Spanish exhibit catalog.

Now Vanguard has announced yet another new book, this one collecting Woody's non-EC crime and horror work from the fifties.

"Vanguard Publishing continues their Wally Wood Classics series by following STRANGE WORLDS: The Science-Fiction Comics of Wally Wood with EERIE Tales of Crime & Horror! The Complete non-EC 1950s Crime & Horror Comics of Wally Wood!"


More details to follow.

Ronn Sutton Request

From our good friend and contributor Ronn Sutton:


Ok, I need your help & suggestions. I've done several collaborative strips with the lovely & talented Hilary Barta (I pencil, he inks) for FEAR AGENT, ELVIRA and elsewhere (including this ELVIRA story "Spa Tront!" where I gave Wally Wood's EC aliens a second chance at life). Hil & I (and Janet) will be at Chicago Wizard World in the Fall and we want to do a sci-fi print together to sell at the show. Anyone got a good idea for a slightly humorous EC-inspired 1950s-ish Sci-fi pin-up? Gotta have a girl in specesuit, aliens, UFOs, etc. Want to pack in as many cliches as possible. Anybody smarter than me got a good idea for a picture?

Booksteve's Sally

A couple of unused roughs done by me for my early eighties self-published newsletter. I took photocopies of my FOO Sally Forth art and cut Wood-style screens in an attempt to create bathing suits.
