Solid package with no extrasBy Christian HartmanWhile the collection is complete (including each cover), I knocked off a star for the total lack of introductory material on the characters, the production of the title, or Fritz Leiber. The book is printed on cheap(ish) paper but the coloring looks authentic as does the artwork (ie: not overly digitally enhanced). If you are a fan of 70's era SS or of Leiber's originals you should be happy with this collection.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Fun adventuresBy Joseph M. ReningerIn 1973, DC Comics started a new series called "Sword of Sorcery." The first issues were about Fritz Leiber's fantasy action duo, beefy barbarian Fafhrd and scampish rouge The Gray Mouser. They live in Nehwon, "a timeless land, a placeless place, which may--or may not--be of the planet Earth." They are the greatest swordsman of the land and are always in search of great adventures, strong drink, and soft women. Issues 1 through 5 are gathered in this volume.The stories blend fun action with fantasy plots, mostly based on stories by Leiber. In the titular "The Cloud of Hate," the boys follow a foggy mist that has pulled a dagger out of a dead body and is carrying it across the town of Lankhmar. It's Mouser's blade, so naturally they have to get it back. Also, doubtless the fog has stolen more valuable things that they can plunder. My favorite story was probably "Revenge of the Skull of Jewels" with its fun fight scenes and good dialogue. The jewel-encrusted skull of a thief wants to get back to Lankhmar's theives' guild, causing all sorts of complications and horrors.An imaginative diversion, perfect light summer reading!0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Very Nice and Enjoyable Graphic NovelBy David K. van HooseNice graphic Novel that does a really good job of graphical telling a number of Fritz Leiber's stories. In 1973, comics industry titan Denny O'Neil joined noted artists Howard Chaykin and Walt Simonson to adapt stories starring Fritz Leiber's timeless fantasy characters, the barbarian Fafhrd and the nimble rogue the Gray Mouser. Now, for the first time ever, Dark Horse Books is collecting all of those exciting tales of swords and deviltry into one handsome collection! About the AuthorDennis J.

From the majesty and mystery of fabled Asgard to the gritty streets of New York City, Thor was never the same. That is the mark of a true visionary. This first volume begins the collection of Simonsons epic run - completely remastered from the original artwork and newly colored by Steve Oliff !COLLECTING: THOR 337-345 I was absolutely thrilled to find the Walter Simonson story arcs in a graphic novels.

  • Honors Mcgee
    The Chanticleer September 18,1986 Val. 34 NO. 3 Jacksonvillle State University + Jacksonville. Ala. 36265 Capacity crowd honors McGee By ROY WILLIAMS Chanticleer Senior Editor A crowd of over 1,000 students, faculty and administration gathered at the Leone Cole Auditorium last Thursday to welcome and honor the new president, Dr. Harold McGee. The student - faculty tea, organized by SGA president Vonda Barbour, was the largest social gathering of its type ever held on campus, said Barbour. "We (the SGA) thought it would be neat for the student body to came together as a whole to honor Dr. Mae,instead of the University always being separated by Greeks, independents, faculty and staff. I'm real pleased with how it turned out," Brbour said. --- She extended her thanks to all the organizations, clubs and individuals who helped to make the program a success. "If we (the University) all work together, there is no limit to what we can accomplish this year," Barbour said. The tea consisted of the following activities: (1) Alpha Xi Delta began the program with a slide show presentation. (2) The president of Phi Beta Lambda, the business fraternity, gave a welcome to Dr. McGee. (3) The JSU Marching Ballerinas performed to the Southerners' tune of "Quilting Party." (4) The JSU Cheerleaders did several cheers. (5) The president of SAM (The Society for the Advancement of Management) welcomed Dr. McGee and presented him with honorary membership ta the club.

It has been accepted for inclusion in History in the Making by an authorized editor of CSUSB ScholarWorks. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Stan Lee: In Memoriam By Galilea Navarro It is unarguable that Stan Lee transformed the comic book landscape into what it was, what it is, and what it will be for years to come. As one of the most important and influential figures in American pop culture, he revolutionized the idea, the notion, of what it means to be a hero. Lee was a relentless spirit with a work ethic to match, who used his impoverished upbringing to pull himself from the shadows of an uncertain future to become the man he is remembered as today. And though he did achieve exactly that, it was not without the help of a collective of brilliant minds from writers to artists that helped Marvel’s “Method Man” establish his legacy. It is difficult to think of a world without Stan Lee, as his knack for spotting—and oftentimes exploiting—talent gave the world some of its most beloved characters, and his cameos in the films have endeared him to fans all over the world.
