As expected, Dark Horse's reprints of the Warren horror mags shifts over to EERIE for the next volume in March of 2009. Looks like this will be up to #6 (unless for some reason they're including all of the #1 "ashcan" which is reprints from CREEPY), so will include "Room With A View", "Shrieking Man", "Black Magic" and "Deep Ruby", great stories all, and "Black Magic" is probably the pinnacle of Ditko's ink-wash work.
Dark Horse also has a collection of the first dozen issues of Marvel's INDIANA JONES comic from the 1980s. If they do a second volume it could include as much as 178 pages of Ditko.

I am not aware of DH doing any reprint of Marvel's Indiana Jones comics.
ReplyDeleteThey have published 2 'Omnibus' volumes of the Indiana Jones comics that Dark Horse published.
The reprint of the Marvel Indiana Jones is upcoming early next year, this book.
ReplyDeleteOk.
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, DH's own site isn't show these upcoming books. This is, like, the 2nd or 3rd book coming from DH that you only know about from listings at amazon.com.
I would think the chances are good for DH to continue with these reprints.
