Just arrived from Michael Kaluta is this handsome oversized hardcover edition of STARSTRUCK from IDW, collecting the newly reprinted series with marvelous new color by Lee Moyer, and the same old lettering by myself (and John Workman on a few Galactic Girl Guides stories). IDW is producing some extremely nice hardcovers these days, giving DC a run for their money in that area. I have a fondness for this project, which I started working on in 1980, and added to sporadically over the years since. I recommend it highly. Best darn space opera you’ll find in comics.

I knew that DC was doing a new one-volume omnibus hardcover edition of Grant Morrison’s THE INVISIBLES, but until it arrived I didn’t conceive of how large it would be. There were three series, I lettered two of them, and with all the additional material (there’s lots) it comes to about 1500 pages, and weighs 10 pounds. Light reading, it’s not!

I mean, look at these side views — thicker than a New York City phone book, I bet! (If they still make those.) If you’re a Morrison fan, this is probably something you want to at least consider getting, even if you have the trade paperback collections. Better get going on your arm workouts, though! And I bet Rian Hughes is pretty happy with the showcase his logo is getting!
