Starlin.Īlso, I remember you said it was originally going to be a superhero story. It will be along side my signed reprints of almost all of MArvel's Silver age's first appearances and the reprint of the first appearance of Thanos signed by Mr. Why? Because for real important comics I try to get an extra copy to be signed so I can (at some point) but it on display, and have one to read. To be fair though I bought mine used and already beat to Hell, so it was considerably less.Īlso, I got the first issues signed by the writer last May, and to do that I tracked down an individual copy of the epic printing. I just assumed it was a hardcover, since it was only 12 issues and Farewell Moonshadow, so such a hefty price seemed odd to me. i got a lot of jive about it since I was the one who brought him in, it was a specialty order, he was living out of town for a few months, and it was $40.00. He liked it so much that he gave a very interesting critique, which I have shared here before, and then about a year later ordered the Compleat Moonshadow from our local comic shop. I lent my old beat-up copy of the Epic trade (non-signed) to an associate of mine back in 2005 when we were doing some comic lending. And let’s not forget Marvel’s then editor-in-chief, Jim Shooter, who gave my oddball pitch his approval, then sent me over to Archie G. I also have to tip my hat to our extraordinary letterer, Kevin Nowlan, and two equally-extraordinary artists, Kent Williams and George Pratt, who pitched in to help Jon J when deadlines got tight. Jon J and I had three wonderful editors watching our backs-Laurie Sutton, Margaret Clark and the late, great Archie Goodwin -all of whom allowed us to tell our story in exactly the way we wanted, providing tremendous support and encouragement throughout our entire run. His work always challenged me, dared me to reach beyond my comfort zone and be better than I’d ever been.
Of course it didn’t hurt that I was working with Jon J Muth, as brilliant an artist-and wonderful a collaborator-as the medium has ever seen.
It allowed me to step outside the Marvel-DC mindset and discover my own voice: over the course of those twelve issues I stopped being a “comic book writer” and become a writer. Someone (and for the life of me, I can’t remember who!) once said that whatever story you’re working on should be written as if it’s the only one you’ll ever tell-pouring all your thoughts, feelings, ideas, ideals, passions, philosophies, hopes and dreams.every iota of Who You Are.into it. Collects Moonshadow #1-12 and Farewell, Moonshadow.Moonshadow changed that-and changed the course of my creative life in the process. Nearly unnoticable trace of rubbing at the extreme tips of the outside corners. Book has a nearly unnoticable trace of rubbing at the head and tail of the spine and a light bump at the front corner of the tail of the spine. Colorful artwork spine and covers are clean and glossy.
