Media Release -- Out in stores this Wednesday comes The Phantom: The Complete Series: The Gold Key Years-Volume One by Hermes Press. This full-color hardcover reprint volume represents the first eight issues of The Ghost Who Walks' sojourn at Gold Key Comics from 1962 to 1964. With stories by Bill Harris, artwork by Bill Lignante, and painted covers by the legendary George Wilson, The Gold Key Years is a treasure trove of Phantom stories, not seen in over forty years, and represented through digital reconstruction with vivid flat coloring.
Media Release -- Hermes Press proudly announces the complete reprint of Gold Key Comics' television tie-in of the legendary supernatural suspense series Dark Shadows in a series of five hardcover volumes. The forerunner to today's immensely popular vampire-themed television programs and theatrical films, Dark Shadows still garners serious attention as one of the most memorable TV shows of the last forty years. As anticipation builds after director Tim Burton's announcement at Comic-Con International 2009 that his next project would be a big-screen remake of Dark Shadows — starring Johnny Depp in the role of reluctant vampire Barnabas Collins — the time seems perfect to reprint the full run of 35 Gold Key comic books based on the show, first published from 1968 to 1976.
Media Release -- AUGUST 5TH, MIlWAUKIE, OR–In a packed panel on Saturday morning during Comic Con, Dark Horse president, Mike Richardson called a surprise guest to announce Dark Horse's plans to develop new comics and graphic novels for the Gold Key Comics' superheroes. Fans were shocked to see Jim Shooter enter the room; the man recently named the "Steve Jobs of Comics" by Comic Book Bin. http://tinyurl.com/ku9o3w
Shooter is perhaps best known for his nine year tenure at Marvel Comics, beginning in 1982, with highlights including Chris Claremont and John Byrne's run on the Uncanny X-Men, and Frank Miller's run on Daredevil. Also under Shooter's editorial reign, Walt Simonsen revamped The Mighty Thor and made it again a bestseller. Following his successful run at Marvel, Shooter launched the well-received Valiant comics imprint in the early 90s, bringing many of Marvel's creators with him.
