Collected as part of our new Lost Marvels series, collaboratively produced with Marvel Comics, this new Howard Chaykin-centered volume of smartly imaginative scripts and beautifully designed art features Dominic Fortune, Monark Starstalker, and Phantom Eagle!

This new volume contains retro-science-fiction bounty hunter Monark Starstalker's debut appearance and all Chaykin's colour-comic-book Dominic Fortune stories, including the character's unexpurgated Max series, published a generation later.

Completing the package is the collision between pulp heroism and the devastating, bloody realities of World War I in Chaykin's 111-page collaboration with The Boys writer Garth Ennis on War Is Hell: The First Flight of the Phantom Eagle.

The collection is introduced by author and comics scholar Brannon Costello. This second title in Fantagraphics' Lost Marvels series collects some of the most exciting, sought-after work by Howard Chaykin from 1975 to 2008.

About the Author

Best known for characters like his parodic 1980s American Flagg, Marvel's Dominic Fortune, and DC's revisionist Blackhawk -- not to mention his controversial, X-rated Black Kiss and the first 10 issues of Marvel's crowd-pleasing Star Wars series -- writer-artist Howard Chaykin has prodded mainstream comics in challenging directions for more than 50 years, throwing pulp heroes and retro-science fiction into a postmodern blender with generous helpings of politics, sex, and satire.
