All Star Superman by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely is a wondorous thing But the big collection, Absolute All Star Superman can be a bit hefty –  and out of print And the two separate paperbacks are a little… separate. Well in October, DC are putting out both volumes in one paperback A perfect holiday present[...]

You know how Scott Dunbier has permiered the Artists' Edition format, replicating as perfectly as possibly the original art boards to a comic, printing them and binding them, for Dave Stevens' Rocketeer and Walt Simonson's Mighty Thor? Well trust Chip Kidd to go one better with his vast fortune. Buying the original art to All Star[...]
