☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis collection brings together the first story arc of Howard Chaykin's meta-commentary on the comic book industry, exploring the cutthroat business and creative conflicts behind the panels from the Golden Age to the modern era. Originally published by Image Comics in 2019, the series uses a rotating cast of fictional creators and publishers to examine the exploitation, ambition, and artistry that have shaped the medium. Chaykin's signature satirical style and dense visual storytelling offer a cynical yet affectionate look at the people who make comics.
In "Further Untold Tales of Comics! Season's Greetings," Howard Chaykin shares behind-the-scenes stories from the American comics industry, drawing from real-life anecdotes he’s collected over the years. The tale blends personal recollections with fictionalized characters—composites of the people who shaped comics—offering a warm, reflective look at the craft’s history. Written, drawn, and inked by Chaykin, with colors by Wil Quintana, and a cover by Don Cameron, this issue captures the spirit of the medium through intimate, imagined moments from its past.
In this sharp satire from *Hey Kids! Comics! #1*, Powerhouse delivers a seemingly noble message to his young readers—urging them to direct their anger toward those who truly differ. But with a sudden twist, the hero’s call to reject prejudice redirects that energy in a startling, ironic way.
