Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

When Charlton closed shop, they sold off most of their properties, with many left to languish in limbo. If anything, appreciation of their comics has grown over the years, with fan publications dedicated to their memory. THE CHARLTON ARROW is the fruits of those labors and we hope it properly honors the Charlton legacy! CHARLTON ARROW #6 CONTENTS MR. JIGSAW: THE CHASE Part II The epic concludes as the classic Charlton heroes Mr. Jigsaw and Liberty Belle team up to vanquish a global terror threat in Maine! Story by Ron Fortier, art by Gary Kato. BILLY THE KID: DEAD MAN’S AMBUSH One of Charlton’s most popular western characters returns in an all-new pulp adventure by Paul Kupperberg with a rip-roarin’ illustration by long-time Billy the Kid artist Jose Delbo! DEATHWATCH There is a realm between shadow and light. Day and night. Heaven and Hell. It exists in the final tick of the clock that separates life from death... the moment when Deathwatch comes for you! Written by Roger McKenzie with art and color by Ben Torres. THE KNIGHT Nothing can stop Link Chain, agent of C.H.E.S.S., a.k.a. The Knight. It’s his world and we are all just pawns! By Daniel Wilson with art & color by Darren Goodhart.

A new kind of hero with an awesome responsibility by writer Michael Jan Friedman and artist Caio Cacau. PYTHAGORAS WAS WRONG Visit the post-bellum South... if you dare! A steampunk Confederate nightmare where one man tries to make a difference! Script by Derek Adnams and featuring the last unpublished work of P.D. Angel Gabriele. 1776: THE MUSICAL COMIC BOOK A hit Broadway musical that became a film... and then a comic book? A look at one of Charlton’s oddest comics (and that’s saying something) by Steven Thompson. BILLY THE KID: GERONIMO’S REVENGE! The western outlaw, caught between vicious gunrunners and fierce Apaches! A sneak peek at a new Billy the Kid collection shot from Charlton’s original photostats. Story by Joe Gill, art by John Severin. THE PROBLEM Artist/writer Dan Reed returns to his Charlton roots and introduces The Problem, a new horror host with a weird tale of terror in the swamps!

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Though never as popular as DC, Marvel or even Archie, Charlton Comics had a long run from 1944 to 1985 and also produced a line of successful publications like Hit Parader. They didn’t spawn the superhero icons other publishers did but released a variety of titles that have become beloved by millions. They were fortunate to employ an array of legendary writers and artists who displayed a creative passion in the Charlton titles more than with other publishers, where they received more pay and fame.
