RETURN OF THE SCORPION!
Been fascinated by this little Dime Action Book’s existence since I wrote my book on comics and transmedia back in 2012 (ohmyfuck it’s been HOW long??): CAPT. MARVEL: RETURN OF THE SCORPION is one of the earliest (if not the earliest?) instances of a sequel to a film – in this case, Republic Pictures’ seminal THE ADVENTURES OF CAPTAIN MARVEL serial (I am and forever will be a movie serial otaku) – that’s done in a different medium than the original. Chuffed to finally add it to The Collection.
1935 Chester Gould sketch
This signed Chester Gould pencil sketch from 1935, drawn on the back of a wine menu, of Dick Tracy and Junior marks a massive new addition to both the Dick Tracy and the original comics art parts of The Collection. Chuffed to add it to the shelves.
