Twomorrows Publishing October 2026 Solicitations

We commemorate the 10th anniversary of the passing of Darwyn Cooke, in a special double-size issue, which features two comprehensive interviews with the brilliant artist—one from 2004 conducted by Jon B. Cooke and another from 2010 by Tucker Stone. We also feature numerous testimonials and tributes from many of Dar’s friends and fans. Behind Darwyn’s cover of Canuck Joe Shuster's co-creation Superman, our theme for the issue is “Truth, Justice, and the Canadian Way,” as we look at fascinating subjects exclusively from the Great White North. These include, courtesy of Richard Comely, a definitive look at the history of Captain Canuck; the life journey of Arn Saba, creator of Neil the Horse and today known as Katherine Collins; and feature a profile of David Boswell of Reid Fleming fame. Plus, we gaze deeply into Orb magazine with founder James Waley, behold Andromeda with editor Dean Motter, and be vexed by Vortex Comics with publisher Bill Marks; and Janet Hetherington shares her look at the Joe Shuster Awards and the Canadian Comic Book Hall Of Fame.

It’s so much more than a 3 hour tour, as Mark Voger takes us back to Gilligan’s Island! Check out the strange side of fun with Weird Toys by Scott Saaverda. Take a drive down 77 Sunset Strip with Will Murray, and then from Beautiful Downtown Burbank: it’s Laugh-In's Gary Owens! Then we look back at ancient astronauts and the phenomena of Chariots of the Gods, and its effect on the pop culture we grew up with! Featuring columns by Andy Mangels, Scott Shaw!, Aaron Sultan and more. Edited by Ed Catto.

All new! All grue! It's the long-awaited sequel to author/designer Mark Voger's Rondo Award-winning book “Monster Mash: The Creepy, Kooky Monster Craze in America 1957-1972” which redefined Monster Kid fandom with a visually immersive graphic approach. This companion book revisits the period, while examining its literary and cinematic roots of its fictional precedents (Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein,” Bram Stoker’s “Dracula”); early silent films (“Cabinet of Dr. Caligari,” “Nosferatu”); the golden age of monster movies (with such stars as Lon Chaney Sr., Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff and Chaney Jr.); the 3-D and teenage monster movie trends; the Edgar Allan Poe adaptations and Hammer Studios releases of the period; the monsters of Sixties TV; the eye-popping toys, memorabilia and comics; and the aftermath of the influential Monster Craze. It features interviews with filmmakers such as Ray Harryhausen (“20 Million Miles to Earth”), Roger Corman (“The Pit and the Pendulum”), and stars like Gloria Stuart (“The Invisible Man”), Ricou Browning (“Creature From the Black Lagoon”), Haruo Nakajima (“Godzilla”), Jonathan Haze (“Little Shop of Horrors”), Hazel Court (“Curse of Frankenstein”), Kathryn Leigh Scott (“House of Dark Shadows”), Robert Quarry (“Count Yorga, Vampire”) and many others. No monster fan should be without this treasure trove of terror!
