On Wednesday, February 29, 2012 at 7pm, The Beguiling (Toronto's finest book store) is hosting a book
launch for the release of my latest book, Amazing
Mysteries: The Bill Everett Archives v1. It looks like the book will make its way into stores on the Wednesday prior, so there will be plenty of copies available for purchase!
The event features a book
signing and exclusive slide show entitled "Bill Everett and Steve Ditko: Before the Sub-Mariner and Spider-Man" (as we also preview the third volume of my Steve Ditko Archives series, out in April). Join our Facebook Page for the Event.
The event is being held right next to The Beguiling at The Central (restaurant and bar), 603 Markham St., Toronto, Ontario, Canada. All those who attend will receive a signed Everett
Archives v1 tipped-in bookplate by me!
Bill Everett
created the Sub-Mariner (the first anti-hero and mutant of the Marvel
Universe), and co-created Daredevil. "The Bill Everett Archives v1"
reprints for the first time Everett's earliest work in comics from
1938-42 featuring his creations Amazing Man, Hydroman, Skyrocket Steele
and many more!
Steve Ditko is the co-creator and original
artist of the Amazing Spider-Man, but produced an entire library worth
of work in the decade prior. "Mysterious Traveler: The Steve Ditko
Archives v3" debuts in April and focuses on Ditko's stellar work from
1957 for Charlton Comics.
