It feels good to be bad… Assemble a team of the world’s most dangerous, incarcerated Super Villains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government’s disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity.

U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself? Based on the characters’ appearances in Suicide Squad, choose from: Deadshot (Sculpted by Adam Ross), Harley Quinn (Sculpted

by James Marsano), The Joker (Sculpted by James Marsano), or Katana (Sculpted by Sam Greenwell)! Each measures approximately 12” tall.

BOOKS THE BRONZE AGE OF DC COMICS: 1970-1984 HC

(W) Paul Levitz (A) Various With an undeniable mass appeal, Christopher Reeve’s Superman cemented the role of the superhero as America’s most enduring archetype, and the comic book as one of the country’s most significant native art forms. That art form, however, was already moving in a new direction; influenced by the emergence of underground comics and shifting political tides, DC’s line of comics was increasingly aimed at adults. Socially relevant subjects such as drug addiction, racism, and women’s rights had entered the mainstream, and comics weren’t just for kids anymore. The Bronze Age of DC Comics includes an original interview with Green Lantern/ Green Arrow writer Denny O’Neil.

FEB151807

(W) Paul Levitz (A) Various From the very first issue of Marvel Comics in 1939, Marvel created a universe grounded in a world that readers recognize as close to their own, brimming with humor and heartache. This audacious approach launched the creation of heroes who have since become household names — Spider-Man, The Incredible Hulk, the Fantastic Four, Iron Man, the Avengers, Thor, the X-Men, the list goes on. Taschen and author Paul Levitz presents this magnum opus of the influential comic book publisher, delving deep into the heart of thousands of costumed characters who continue to fight the good fight in comics, movies, and toy aisles of the world!

(W) Toshio Ban, Frederik Schodt (A/CA) Osamu Tezuka This graphic-format biography of Osamu Tezuka — Japan’s “God of Manga” — looks at one of the 20th century’s great creative artists, bringing us Astro Boy, Kimba the White Lion, Black Jack, and many more! It is also an anecdotal study of the evolution of Japan’s early manga and anime business and its heroes. A never-before-seen popular culture history of post-war Japan, it is sure to fascinate fans and anyone interested in manga, anime, and the potential of the graphic storytelling medium.
