Wrightson’s The Muck Monster: Artist’s Edition
Portfolio
Bernie Wrightson (w & a)
Bernie Wrightson is one of the most acclaimed horror artist's of
all time. His work on Swamp Thing and many DC mystery books are
hailed as classics of the form, but his undisputed masterpiece is
Frankenstein, illustrated from the Mary Shelley novel. Leading up
to Frankenstein, Wrightson did a series of breathtaking stories for
Creepy and Eerie magazines, in the mid 1970s. Chief among these
stories, and with the beginnings of the style he adopted for
Frankenstein, was The Muck Monster.
Now, IDW Publishing is pleased to announce the first Artist's

Bernie Wrightson's The Muck Monster. As with all Artist's Editions

Neal Adams’ Thrill
Kill: Artist’s Edition Portfolio
Neal Adams (w & a)
Neal Adams redefined the look of comics in the 1970s. His
groundbreaking dynamic storytelling, coupled with a sense of
realism that was never before seen in mainstream comics, has made
Adams one of the most influential artists of the last 50 years. He
was responsible for what many consider to be the definitive version
of Batman, as well as being the co-creator of one of the Caped
Crusader’s greatest villains: Ras Al Ghul. He has produced
near legendary runs on Green Lantern, Deadman (in Strange
Adventures), the Avengers, the X-Men and many more.
Now IDW is pleased to present one of Neal's outstanding stories in
the Artist's Edition Portfolio format. Each page scanned from the
original art to match in exacting terms the look and feel of his

The
Art of Molly Crabapple, Vol. 2: Devil in the
Details
N/A (w) • Molly Crabapple (a) • Molly
Crabapple (c)
Fine artist, illustrator, and comics creator Molly Crabapple
captures the absurdity of modern life in intricate, theatrical
detail in her fine art work, drawing inspiration from politics,
polite (and not-so-polite) society, and hundreds of years of
literature. Her work is burlesque-inspired in the broadest
definition of the word—deftly satirizing the powerful with
adorably sinister animals, steampunk-tinged machinery, and of
course, beautiful girls.
But it's not all fantastical—when Occupy Wall Street broke
out, Molly was there, capturing the immediacy of the revolutionary
feeling in pen and ink. In a new 48-page book from IDW, you can get
Molly's art in gorgeous full-color, work that's decorated glamorous
nightclubs, museums and galleries, and protest signs and occupied
spaces around the country.
