Collecting ULTIMATE HUMAN #1-4. 104 PGS./Rated T+ …$15.99 DAREDEVIL BY FRANK MILLER & KLAUS JANSON VOL. 1 TPBWritten by FRANK MILLER, BILL MANTLO, A classic Marvel hero redefined by one of comics’ greatest visionaries! A Marvel Comics mainstay since 1964, Daredevil got a new lease on life in a landmark 1979-1983 run by writer-penciler Frank Miller and inker-penciler Klaus Janson, whose daring reinvention of the character quickly made Miller one of the biggest and most influential stars in the comic-book industry. Miller put his own stamp on established cast members such as reporter Ben Urich, femme fatale Black Widow, mad assassin Bullseye, the saw-fisted Gladiator and monstrous crime boss Kingpin. Miller also introduced Daredevil’s mysterious mentor Stick, deadly ninja foes the Hand and Matt’s long-lost love Elektra, a beautiful assassin who would become one of Marvel’s most memorable characters. Mixing traditional super-heroics with mysterious martial artistry, doomed romance and dark personal drama, Miller’s character-defining DD run is collected across three titanic trade paperbacks!

In one bold stroke, writer Grant Morrison (All-Star Superman, Batman) propelled the X-Men into the 21st century — masterminding a challenging new direction for Marvel’s mutant heroes that began with the destruction of Genosha and never let up. Regarded as the most innovative thinker of the current comic-book renaissance, Morrison proceeded to turn the mutant-hero genre on its ear. Gone were the gaudy spandex costumes — replaced by slick, black leather and an attitude to match. Now, his entire Eisner Award-nominated run on NEW X-MEN is collected across three titanic trade paperbacks!

Super-villains drafted into serving as federal marshals, the Thunderbolts specialize in hunting down unlicensed super heroes — but they may be doing their jobs a bit too well. The prisons are full, so Thunderbolts Mountain is serving as a temporary jail while they process all their latest prisoners — some of whom happen to be ruthless psychics bent on destroying the team from within. And since the Thunderbolts include horrific head-cases like Venom, Swordsman, Moonstone and the Green Goblin, a little mental manipulation can be a very dangerous thing.
