Featuring familiar characters as never before seen and introducing new players destined to become Star Wars icons, Episode I is a must-see film experience, and this comics adaptation is a must-read for all Star Wars enthusiasts.

Al Williamson stands in rarified air, among the titans of the development of comics as an art form. Drawing from the tradition of the heyday of book, advertising, and comic-strip illustration, Williamson brought a command of craft and dynamics rarely seen, before or since, to a field that had largely valued speed over skill. As part of an amazing stable of young artists at E.C. in the 1950s, Williamson helped change the industry forever although much of his work of the era has remained hidden. This work includes a diverse array of fantasy, science fiction, westerns, war stories, and more that showcases the astonishing range of this master of the form. Al Willaimson: Hidden Lands at last uncovers these stories from his days at Atlas, E.C., Charlton, Harvey, Dell, and more — including collaborations with Roy Krenkel, Wally Wood, Frank Frazetta, and other top creators of the era — most of which have never been reprinted as well as a wide array of material that has never before been published, including fascinating sketches and works from his career''s infancy and photos from the artist''s personal scrapbooks. Covered in fascinating depth by writers Mark Schultz, Thomas Yeates, and Steve Ringgenberg and gathered from extensive, lively interviews with Williamson, Al Williamson: Hidden Lands is an essential volume for any fan of this giant of graphic fiction as well as for those interested in comics history of the classic era of pen-and-ink illustration.

The art of Al Williamson compliments short stories by Harlan Ellions, Bruce Jones, Archie Goodwin, and Mark Schultz.

Joseph Clement Coll executed hundreds of drawings for Associated Sunday Magazines. Because of Associated''s rarity, these images have remained relatively unknown. Selected from a near complete run from 1904 to 1917 ? over 220 of the finest are reproduced here, many for the first time since their original publication. Over 40 have been scanned direct from the original art and rendered for the most part at full size, revealing the tonal effects lost in the original printed form. This is the first time such a large collection of Coll''s originals has been assembled in one volume. Coll''s work for Sir Nigel is reproduced nearly in its entirety, showcasing his brilliant imagination and ease at handling adventure art.All images include the corresponding source information. A bibliography of Joseph Clement Coll''s work for Associated Sunday Magazines is included as well.

Set 32 years before the original Star Wars trilogy, the first episode focuses on eight-year-old Anakin Skywalker (who eventually becomes Darth Vader) and the training he receives from Obi-Wan Kenobi.

For fifty years, Al Williamson has epitomized artistic integrity. From his collaborations with Hogarth, Frazetta, Krenkel, Wood and Torres, to his award-winning Flash Gordon, often imitated Warren Magazines, to his classic Star Wars and Secret Agent newspaper strip art, Williamson''s adventurous romantic work has consistently elevated the art of the comic strip to the level of Golden Age illustration and museum quality fine art. Vanguard Productions started publishing periodicals in 1991. The Al Williamson Sketchbook (1998) is Vanguard''s landmark, first publication in the book format.

When George Lucas made the first Star Wars motion picture, a scene was shot wherein Han Solo met Jabba the Hutt. But as any Star Wars fan knows, Jabba didn''t appear until the third film, Return of the Jedi. Lucas had hit the technological wall -- he couldn''t craft Jabba the way he wanted, so he simply removed the scene from his initial, ground-breaking movie. Two decades later he that footage -- with a young Harrison Ford portraying a brash Han Solo -- and added Jabba to it. The result is incredible. The hair will stand up on the back of your neck, and you''ll feel twenty years younger as you experience that remarkable thrill all over again. That''s the same feeling you''ll have as you read this adaptation of Star Wars: A New Hope. Crafted completely from scratch by Bruce Jones, Eduardo Barreto, and longtime Star Wars artist Al Williamson, with a stunning cover by Greg and Tim Hildebrandt, this adaptation includes the new scenes from the Special Edition. Experience it again, for the very first time. *
