Fantagraphics gør det igen! Helt uventet udkommer John Severin's western mesterværk fra 1950'erne, "American Eagle", fra Prize Comics Western #85-#113 samlet i en hc, til August! Sommeren er reddet! Eller i hvert fald sensommeren...

fra amazon.co.uk:
In the 1950s, between his legendary EC work and his celebrated Marvel comics, John Severin joined with Mad artist Will Elder and Two-Fisted Tales writer Colin Dawkins to introduce a new level of historical accuracy to the comic-book Western. While Native Americans had generally been vilified or left in the shadows of gun-slinging cowboy heroes, the American Eagle stories featured in Prize Comics Western were built around action-packed tribal intrigues and a heroic Crow warrior.

Collected here for the first time are all of the American Eagle stories drawn by Severin from Prize Comics Western #85-#113. Plus Severin-drawn stories featuring The Fargo Kid, Black Bull and The Lazo Kid. More than 55 exciting, gorgeous, Western tales of bullets vs. arrows, stampedes, tribal warfare, prospectors, buffalo hunters, broken treaties, gun battles, cavalry charges, wagon trains, and warriors on horseback. Thanks to Severin's famously exacting art, you'll be able to smell the leather and gunpowder.

With commentary by comics historian Howard Leroy Davis.

Jeg kender ikke serien, men jeg tjekkede den da Googa lagde den op, tegningerne ser fine ud og den kan allerede forudbestilles på Saxo.
