BACK ISSUE Vol. 12, September 2005, examines comics revamps of the '70s and' 80s in our “Extreme Makeovers” issue! Pulitzer Prize winner MICHAEL CHABON, DAVE GIBBONS, ROY THOMAS, KURT BUSIEK, and other insiders explore the history of the postmodern super-hero — from Squadron Supreme to Watchmen to today — with rare Gibbons Watchmen art! TOM DeFALCO and RON FRENZ go “Pro2Pro” to unravel the true story behind Spider-Man's 1980s costume change, while DENNY O'NEIL and friends unlock the secrets of Superman's 1970 revamp (with art by CURT SWAN and MURPHY ANDERSON)! BOB ROZAKIS and MARSHALL ROGERS plug us in to the Calculator, recently rebooted in DC's Identity Crisis, and “The Greatest Stories Never Told” spotlights JOHN BYRNE's aborted SHAZAM! Plus: MIKE FRIEDRICH's “Off My Chest” editorial reminds us of how Star * Reach changed the comics world; TONY DeZUNIGA draws bead on Jonah Hex, the anti-hero that reinvented the Western comic (with JOHN ALBANO's never-before-published roughs for the first Hex story); a look at how STEVE GERBER and JACK KIRBY's Destroyer Duck took a stand for creator rights; a “Rough Stuff” pencil-art gallery featuring FRANK MILLER's Elektra, LEE WEEKS 'Daredevil, DAVID MAZZUCCHELLI's Batman: Year One, CHARLES VESS' Spider-Man, and more; plus extra surprise features! With an all-new SPIDER-MAN cover by RON FRENZ and JOE RUBINSTEIN! Back Issue is a trademark of TwoMorrows Inc., and published by TwoMorrows Publishing.
