As another year winds down, holiday shopping reeves up. That means that publishing houses want to get their best stuff out just in time so it can be bought for that special someone. One of those books comes from Marvel, or more specifically their Icon creator owned line. I’m speaking of Criminal The Definitive Edition Volume 1 HC by Ed Brubaker and Sean Phillips (with colors by Val Staples). Brubaker has become a favorite of mine in recent years because of his work on Daredevil and Captain America. This is my first go around with Criminal and it was worth the wait. This oversized volume is beautiful and full of extras. I’ll go over it in detail on today’s show.

Additionally covered today are details about the Superman Earth One HC-GN. In short it’ll be $19.99, 128 pages and is expected on September 7, 2010. I also go over Marvel’s Greatest Comics reprint project which is launching in March and pose the question – Who is Marvel’s “Trinity” – Characters wise and Creator wise?

All this and the New Releases of the Week.

    Hi Chris! Long time listener -first time commenter… ;-)

    One thing struck me: Is the photo on the cover of Harvey Keitel??

    Keep up the good work!
