I look forward to this one… although it appears patience will be in order. |

Did MuckMen ever come out? It was supposed to be an issue of Comic Book Creator. I have CBC on my pull-list, but for some reason I didn't get the last giant size issue. (The Joe Kubert one! Y'all know how much I love Joe Kubert!) So I was kind of assuming that # 6 DID come out, but just that my shop couldn't get it again. The twomorrows site says it's out Dec 14th. A bit pricier than I expected - over $20, though they're offering a discount, probably for online orders. And it's 180 pages. I see there's a Russ Heath issue that I missed, and a Bernie Wrightson one that's supposed to come out in Feb 2015. The Russ Heath issue was fascinating - There's the story of how he was invited to the Playboy Mansion for a weekend and just didn't leave.... He ended up living with Heff for quite some time. |

I look forward to this one… although it appears patience will be in order. When it finally releases the printed book will be on its last legs and the price will skyrocket due to its extreme specialty so you better pre-order it now. |

I know there are a few Tom Scioli fans hereabouts, so they might be interested in the fact IDW is collecting Amaerican Barbarian. The bad news-=Rob Liefeld is writingthe introduction  story here-M |

The bad news-=Rob Liefeld is writingthe introduction story here-M As long as he's not drawing it ... I'll probably get this, just based on Scioli and the few samples I've looked at online. Also, this reminds me, I have to finish reading Godland one of these days. |

I'm pretty interested to check out this collection of Torpedo. I remember coming across a couple parts of this back when I was a teenager and am interested to read the whole thing. Alack Sinner is another one of these type of series I would like to read that I briefly came across back in my original comic reading days.

I have a fairly complete run already, but Victor Moscosso's work in Zap! is some of my favorite comics work e-v-e-r, so I wouldn't mind a collection.
But not a 400$ collection.

$285 on Amazon, but I'm hoping at some point they'll put out another edition, even if it's without all the "bonus" material. Probably will cough up $80 for the Eightball collection, though. (even though I have all the floppies and--I think--all the TPB reprint collections). |

Yeah, I'm definitely in for the Complete Eightball myself, although I really wish that it was the complete Eightball and especially that it included the original Ice Haven story in it's original size and format. And I'll try and interlibrary loan the Zap! anthology - I am interested in the bonus stuff, just not 400$ worth.

I'm enough of a fan that I'm interested in the Complete Eightball as well, even though I have all the individual issues. Wonder if there are any extras?
