TOY STORY: WOODY’S ROUNDUP #4—STINKY PETE On sale June 1 4" tall; Limited to 950 numbered pieces Packaged in its own tin box, with a pin-back button and character booklet $49.95 Dark Horse launches a new series of vintage-style statuettes featuring four of Toy Story’s best-known characters. Featured this month is the fourth and final figure from Woody’s Roundup, Stinky Pete the prospector. In examining the candidates from this classic film’s many characters, we agreed with Disney that Woody and his gang were best suited to the deliberately rough-hewn, somewhat distressed Syroco style that sculptors Yoe! Studio describe as “primitive but charming.” ALSO AVAILABLE TOY STORY: WOODY’S ROUNDUP #3—JESSIE (NOV108068) $49.95 ************************************************************************ CELEBRATING 25 YEARS Mike Richardson is, of course, Master and Commander of Dark Horse. When he’s in New York, or we’re at a convention somewhere, often we’ll have a cup of coffee and talk. Sometimes there’s business to discuss, now that I’m redeveloping the Dell/Gold Key characters for Dark Horse, but that never takes long. Mike is just, honorable, and generous. I’m smart enough to agree with a just, honorable, and generous man. We usually end up talking old war stories for a while. We’ve both been in and around this business for decades. From the outside, I guess it looks like the whole thing is a lark. How could making comics not be fun from soup to nuts?! A party! Sad to say, even in comics there are the occasional weasels, jerks, egomaniacs, and other party poopers. I marvel at his horror stories, and he marvels at mine. But mostly, we talk about comic books. The ones we loved growing up, the ones we love now, the things that we can do . . . ! Ideas! Stories! Characters! It’s like we’re suddenly both kids again, about to steal a couple of tablecloths, tie them around our necks, and patrol the city! A certain notable Daredevil contributor once told me he spent a night prowling the rooftops of Hell’s Kitchen to see what it would be like. When Mike and I get on a roll talking, that seems so reasonable . . . ! Anyway…. When I worked for Marvel Comics, the Big Bosses there had never so much as opened a comic book. The promotions VP who mostly handled costumed character appearances and the White House Easter Egg Roll, once asked me how many stories were in each comic book. A licensing VP once asked me if we owned Wonder Woman. No, that’s DC. Speaking of DC, once, at an industry social function, one of their Big Shots asked me what “inking” was. That was long ago. Upper-management types at those houses probably care now. Especially now that the Giant Corporate Parent Companies have taken a direct hand. Dunno. This I do know. Mike loves comics. Dark Horse loves comics. So do I. -Jim Shooter RELIST DOCTOR SOLAR, MAN OF THE ATOM ARCHIVES HC VOLUME 1 (SEP040023) $49.95 VOLUME 2 (JAN050054) $49.95 VOLUME 3 (JUN050036) $49.95 VOLUME 4 (JUL070016) $49.95 DOCTOR SOLAR, MAN OF THE ATOM ARCHIVES VOLUME 1 TP (JUN100018) $19.99 MAGNUS, ROBOT FIGHTER ARCHIVES VOLUME 1 TP (AUG100023) $19.99 MAGNUS, ROBOT FIGHTER 4000 A.D.

With absurdly comedic interactions, the text varies from straightforward to even more abstract and nonsensical than the images that it accompanies. The paintings reference child’s play or literature and others are seemingly without reference, completely untethered. Pages that could be forgettable one-liners become investigations into intellect and our ability to draw correlations between contradictory elements in a single image.

Brown cooly documents with dramatic subtlety the violent rebellion on the Canadian prairie led by Riel, who some regard a martyr who died in the name freedom, while others consider him a treacherous murderer.

The play proved so successful, and Lugosi's take on the role so influential, that when Dracula was brought to the screen by Universal in 1931, only Lugosi could essay the role of Count Dracula, and his performance would inspire generations. This stunning 1/8-scale styrene model kit recreates Lugosi's interpretation of Dracula from the Broadway play. Needs paint and glue for final assembly. Recommended for experienced modelers.

Trotsky, Lenin and Stalin plan to spread the workers’ revolution by blasting through Poland in order to support the growing communist movements in Germany, France and Britain.

Strike of the Eagle is the first game in the new Fog of War series, which covers pivotal wars of different eras, allowing players to relive and learn about the struggles that took place.

(STK438580) (C: 0-1-2) CD PI SONIC SCI-FI CD The 1950s was dubbed "the decade of possibilities," the frontiers of space became the new wild west as authors, film directors and musicians alike became inspired by the likelihood of man exploring space. As early as 1951, 20th Century Fox commissioned The Day The Earth Stood Still, the film that according to the posters "started it all." The soundtrack would be as important to the film's overall impact as any other facet of the production. Bought in was seasoned movie score composer Bernard Herrmann, famed for his work with Orson Welles. Disc 2 of this set features the work of Louis & Bebe Barron, famed for their pioneering work in the electronic field. MGM bought them in to write the music for their ambitious 1956 production The Forbidden Planet, and in so doing were rewarded with a score that to this day sounds futuristic and eminently listenable.
