The latest entry in the Red Circle reprint series, this historical edition highlights one of the pioneering super-hero titles of the Silver Age: The Fly! Tommy Troy is a young boy whose world is turned upside down when he meets an emissary of the Fly World and is given a special ring that magically transforms him into the superhuman Fly! Considered an early prototype of Spider-Man, the Fly's earliest adventures were charted by some of the most legendary creative talent in comics: Jack Kirby! Joe Simon! Jack Davis! Al Williamson! All of these artists and more are featured in this special edition that collects titanic tales from 1959 and 1960. This Red Circle imprint features a special foreword by Joe Simon and a front cover illustration by fan-favorite Joe Staton.

A rare foray into all-ages work, “The Adventures of Venus” was Gilbert Hernandez’s contribution to the kids’ anthology Measles, which he edited in 1999 and 2000. Luba’s niece Venus creates and collects comic books, walks through a scary forest, plays soccer, schemes to get the cute boy she likes, laments the snowlessless of a California Christmas, catches measles, and travels to a distant planet (OK, the last one may be a dream).

With stunning illustrations from David Roberts, and a sparkling new text from Tom Moorhouse, this is a glorious picture-book edition of The Wind in the Willows. Kenneth Grahame's children's classic has all the ingredients you need to make a perfect picture book - great characters, humour, lots of adventure, and a heartwarming message about the true value of friendship. This is the perfect book to introduce a really young audience to Mole, Ratty, Badger and, of course, Mr Toad.
