Howard Victor Chaykin is a longtime veteran of the comic book business. As a cartoonist — both writing and drawing — he has been a major influence on the direction of comics, referred to frequently as one of the principal architects of the modern comic book. His signature creation, American Flagg!, introduced a new level of narrative complexity, depth of character, and point of view in its text, not to mention a previously unseen level of design and craft to the visual nature of an all-too-frequently staid and timid medium. Chaykin continues to produce work that pushes the envelope of concept, context, and content in comics…in The Divided States of Hysteria for example, a comic book which, thanks to social media, enraged an entire new generation of the willfully ignorant who might have had a better case if they’d actually read the damned book. Chaykin’s new series, Hey Kids! Comics!, is a fictionalized history of the comic book business, a love letter written with just a frisson of acid in the ink, to the field he’s loved and called home for over four decades.
Katie Cook is a cartoonist whose main focus is in comics and children’s books. She is the creator of the comic Nothing Special (online with Webtoon and in print from Ten Speed Graphix!) and Gronk: A Monster’s Story (probably still online? Books available from the stacks of boxes in the dark, scary part of my basement if you go down there yourself). Katie is the illustrator of the Star Wars books ABC-3PO, Search Your Feelings, The Galactic Storybook, and more. She has also written and drawn for My Little Pony, Marvel, Disney, Fraggle Rock, and so many other people. To all these companies, please don’t make me draw a horse again. We all know how that turned out.
The sons of a Chevrolet division chief, Greg Hildebrandt and his identical twin brother, Tim, were born in Detroit, Michigan in 1939. Both boys were avid artists and creative thinkers from a young age and carried their artistic passion with them throughout their childhoods.
After attending the Meinzinger Art School at age 18, Greg and Tim worked for the Jam Handy Organization and Industrial Film Production Corporation. They worked on animated training films for the auto industry, the military and major US corporations. In 1963, they moved from Detroit to New York City to work for Arch Bishop Fulton J. Sheen. He hired them to create art for his weekly TV show, Life is Worth Living, and to produce films on world hunger.
Eventually their focus moved on to commercial illustration, and in 1975, Greg and Tim illustrated the first of a series of Lord of the Rings calendars for Ballantine Books. This series of paintings launched the two men into international fame, with over a million calendars sold, and the name The Brothers Hildebrandt(R) was born! In 1977, Lucas Films hired the Brothers Hildebrandt to create the movie poster for the first Star Wars film, Star Wars: A New Hope. They only had 36 hours to create and paint the art. The movie was about to break in the theaters. They completed it on time. Lucas was very happy and another worldwide fandom was created.
In 2015, Greg had the opportunity to return to Star Wars after 20 years for Marvel Comics. He painted three new pieces for them for Star Wars compendium covers. He also painted Deadpool, Old Man Logan, Secret Wars, Captain America vs. Hitler, Black Panther, Thor, Thanos, The Inhumans, Conan and Old Man Logan comic covers for them.
In 2015, Greg started a new series titled “The Dark Side”. In this series, he painted his favorite villains in extremely large paintings, focusing mostly on giant head shots. The first three in the series are The Joker, Harley Quinn, and Batman.
In 2018, Greg began a new series titled “What If”. What if he wasn’t a kid in the 40’s and 50’s? What if he was an artist hired to paint the movie posters for the films he has loved since his first movie at age 5? So, he started with Creature from the Black Lagoon. The second painting he completed in this series is a painting for King Kong, 86 inches tall! This one is a killer piece of art. Then, Greg decided to repaint the 1977 Star Wars poster. In 1977, he painted it in 36 hours with his brother Tim. This time, he painted it in 36 hours alone.
Recently, Greg was honored by the Air Force at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware. They requested a license to put one of Greg’s pinup paintings titled, “Keep em Flying”, on the nose of a transport plane. Greg, of course, said yes. This is a dream come true for him.
Bob McLeod is best known for co-creating and illustrating The New Mutants for Marvel Comics. He began his career with Marvel’s Crazy magazine, penciling, and inking movie and TV satires and the Teen Hulk strip. He has pencilled or inked all the major characters for Marvel and DC, including Spider-Man (most notably Kraven’s Last Hunt), The X-Men, Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, GI Joe,Star Wars, The Hulk, Conan, and many more. Bob also wrote and illustrated a children’s alphabet book, Superhero ABC, published by HarperCollins, which received starred reviews. He edited and wrote articles for Twomorrows’ Rough Stuff magazine and taught art at the Pennsylvania College of Art & Design for many years. He’s currently doing occasional variant covers for Marvel and commissions for his fans, along with occasional freelance jobs and personal projects. His website is www.bobmcleod.com.
Joe Staton has been drawing comics since he started working for Charlton Comics in 1971, where he co-created E-Man and Michael Mauser. Though the bulk of his work has been for DC Comics, at last count, Staton has worked for at least 30 publishers and 100 different editors. Among his many comics credits are Action Comics, Green Lantern, The Legion, Classics Illustrated, and various incarnations of Batman. During his time on Green Lantern, he co-created several GLs, including Kilowog, Arisia, and Salakk. He also designed GL Guy Gardner’s “bad boy” look. More recently, with his writer-wife Hilarie, he produces medical comics such as Pete Learns All About Crohn’s and Colitis and Amy Goes Gluten-Free. In 1998, he received the Eisner Award for his work on World’s Finest: The Superman-Batman Adventures. He penciled over 100 issues of the Cartoon Network’s Scooby Doo comic. He illustrated a graphic novel adaptation of Ayn Rand’s Anthem for NAL and a graphic biography of Ronald Reagan. Since 2011, working with writer Mike Curtis, Joe was the regular artist for the long-running Dick Tracy newspaper strip (available online at www.gocomics.com/dicktracy). Dick Tracy received Harvey Awards in 2013, 2014, and 2015 for Best Syndicated Strip or Feature.
Brian Stelfreeze, one of the original Gaijin Studios members, is a multi-talented artist, with experience and credits penciling, inking, coloring, painting, and even writing. His comic book covers have gained him much attention and lauding, and his run painting covers on DC Comics’ Shadow of the Bat for over 50 issues is noteworthy by itself. Brian’s creative output can be found on BOOM! Studios’ Day Men, Marvel Comics’ Black Panther, and be sure to pick up BOOM! Studios’ The Signature Art of Brian Stelfreeze to get a definitive look at the works of his publishing career.

Titan Comics has revived the black and white newsprint Savage Sword of Conan, and this first issue is well worth your $6.99.
Beginning with an introduction by Roy Thomas about the history of the title (and teasing his involvement in future titles), Savage Sword kicks off for good with the epic “Conan and the Dragon Horde” by John Arcudi and Max von Fafner. This story is filled with classic Conan themes like greed, lust, and fear of the unknown as Conan’s mercenary gig turns into a hellish nightmare. Von Fafner brings the blood, gore, and big animals using cutting diagonal panels for the more powerful fight scenes. The story has kind of a road trip format taking us to exotic and dangerous places in the Hyborian Age, and there’s some romance too with Conan having searing chemistry with siege weapons engineer Ineah.
This dragon/dinosaur slaying yarn is followed by a prose flash fiction story from Jim Zub that is heavy on adjectives, but redeems itself through visceral action sequences and pointed commentary about religious fanaticism through Conan’s conflict with the Stygians.
As well as Conan, Savage Sword features the first part of a Solomon Kane serial from Patrick Zircher and a companion essay from Jeffrey Shanks that sets up this lesser known character’s role in pop culture. The Conan story is definitely more engaging, and the Solomon Kane serial leads off with a lot of info dumping about Welsh folklore and mythology before turning into a monster story. I definitely enjoy Zircher’s black and white work here than his work for Marvel and DC especially his use of shadow when the mysterious Gawr takes a family’s livestock.
All in all, Savage Sword of Conan #1 is a worthy return of this title and a showcase of gorgeous sword and sorcery visuals paired with insightful arcs for Conan and Solomon Kane.

I’ll admit, my knowledge of Conan the Barbarian is limited. I’ve read some comics. I’ve read some arcs, series, and overall I’ve enjoyed it. The recent relaunch from Titan Comics has sucked me in with a great classic feel to it. So, I was intrigued to check out The Savage Sword of Conan #1, a new addition to Titan’s line based on the classic Robert E. Howard characters. What I found was a solid anthology, mixing prose, comics, and pin-ups. It’s different enough to stand out from the ongoing series and opens up a lot of opportunity for what’s to come.
The Savage Sword of Conan #1 is packed with two comics, a prose story, some history, and lots of art. It’s a great mix not just featuring Conan, but Solomon Kane as well. For those that might not want a sweeping epic, but instead some fun, short pulp entertainment, the comic fills that niche, delivering something that’s not as common in comics today.
Most importantly, The Savage Sword of Conan #1 delivers an entry point that anyone can dive in and enjoy. You don’t need to know these characters to appreciate the stories and be entertained by them.
John Arcudi and Max von Fafner handle the story and art for Conan and Patch Zircher delivers the return of Kane with both story and art. Both are solid additions to each character playing off their strengths, and in both, not being tied down by an ongoing series with arcs. You can sit back and enjoy them.
Jim Zub provides a pulpy prose tale inspired by Joe Jusko‘s art, Roy Thomas delivers an introduction, and Jeffrey Shanks writers on the history of Solomon Kane. The Savage Sword of Conan #1 feels like it celebrates Howard’s creations and uses the lack of a need for continuity to have fun with it all. It’s a throwback release in some ways, and it’s a hell of a lot of fun due to that.
The art is as solid as you’d expect with black and white images that’ll suck you in on the detail. The prose stand out with their presentation and pinups a great addition showing off the styles of different creators for these classic properties.
The Savage Sword of Conan #1 is a great addition to the comic shelf. It not only stands out from the Conan the Barbarian series but is an easy way to dive into these worlds. It opens up the opportunity for Titan to not only give other creators a shot at writing Conan, Kane, and more, but also try out other characters from Howard’s worlds and see what might work in their own comics. It’s an anthology collection, a throwback to old comic magazines, that has been generally missing from the comic store shelf and is a welcome return.

DSTLRY has debuted new variant covers for The Blood Brothers Mother #1, the kickoff of a biting western tale of revenge by Brian Azzarello and Eduardo Risso, the Eisner and Harvey Award-winning creative team behind Vertigo crime classic 100 Bullets.
Legendary creative team Brian Azzarello, Eduardo Risso, and editor Will Dennis return with a carnage-filled western saga, bringing their honed characters, dialogue, and textured illustration to a genre steeped in American iconography and bloodshed.
The Blood Brothers Mother follows three children—their step-father gunned down by their recently paroled father; their mother kidnapped; their family torn asunder. The kids set off to rescue her across the wild Texas frontier, where they’ll face the harsh elements of an unforgiving landscape, deadly animals hungry for blood, merciless bounty hunters, and so much more.
Along the way, they’ll learn the real cost of revenge—not just in lives, but in how it stains a soul. While revenge may be satisfying in the moment, it leaves a yearning behind that lasts a lifetime. And once you taste it, nothing else is ever so sweet.
The creator-owned western launches this May as the esteemed duo seek vengeance with a pair of open order covers by Risso and new incentive variants by Rafael Albuquerque, Howard Chaykin, and Junko Mizuno, all of which will also be available as variants for the digital release on dstlry.co:
Cover A – Eduardo Risso – Open Order
Cover B – Eduardo Risso – Open Order
Cover C – Rafael Albuquerque (American Vampire, Blue Beetle) – 1:10 Incentive Variant
Cover D – Howard Chaykin (American Flagg!, Star Wars) – 1:25 Incentive Variant
Cover E – Junko Mizuno (Pure Trance, Ravina the Witch?) – 1:50 Incentive Variant

If you’re a fan of comics, you know the name Howard Chaykin. The legendary creator of American Flagg!. The man who first brought Star Wars to comics. He has worked for every publisher in the comic book business, on every major character. He’s best known for his creator owned work over the years. Chaykin now takes destiny into his hands with his first ever crowdfunding campaign forJohn Benteen’s FARGO: Hell On Wheels!
The campaign is for a 96+ page prestige format hardcover graphic novel adaptation of one of Chaykin’s favorite characters from the highwater era of paperback adventure heroes of the sixties and seventies. Chaykin writes and draws the entire book, along with the extraordinary colorist Yen Nitro and of course his longtime letterer/designer, Ken Bruzenak.
Neal Fargo has been perfectly described as ” Conan meets The Wild Bunch.” In Hell on Wheels, Fargo is hired to protect a small railroad under relentless attack from a corrupt and ruthless competitor with money to burn, and hired guns to do the burning.
Fargo is a man ready for any challenge, and for this hardboiled soldier of fortune, payback is fair game. Packed with fist fighting brawls, gunplay, women and whiskey from running start to stunning finish, Hell on Wheels is the perfect example of why Fargo is a timeless character in the timeless world of adventure fiction, and perfect for the modern graphic novel.
Supporters of the campaign are in for massive treats, as there are art contributions to the book by a murderer’s row of artists, including Gary Frank, Butch Guice, Eduardo Risso, Denys Cowan, Mahmud Asrar, and more with a cover by Dave Johnson. They also have the chance to be drawn into the comic and have their likeness be mercilessly slaughtered on page, in the way only Howard Chaykin can deliver a massacre!
