Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Three time Eisner Award-winning Brian Michael Bendis (Ultimate Spider-Man, Daredevil, Powers, Alias, Fortune and Glory) didn't just appear out of thin air, you know! He worked his tuchas off on all aspects of the medium before totally losing his hair in mainstream comics.

Compiled in this exclusive collection are dozens of short stories, handpicked by the author, ranging from the trademark Fortune and Glory-style autobiographical anecdotes, to some of the darkest crime noir stories he has yet to tell.

Also included is a smattering of his favorite short work collaborations with Warren Ellis, Mike Avon Oeming, and many others. Plus a bonus portfolio of illustrations and essays that have rarely been seen before.

A fun, must-have collection of very hard to find material by one of the most consistently excellent creators in modern comics.

Review:

"Bendis is the funny-pages descendant of Sam Fuller, Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino." Entertainment Weekly

Review:

"The best writer in comics." Wizard Magazine

About the Author

Brian Michael Bendis is the three time Eisner Award-winning writer of the hit Marvel Comic books Ultimate Spider-Man, Daredevil, and Alias.

He is creator of the Jinx line of crime comics published by Image Comics. This line has spawned the graphic novels Goldfish, Fire, Jinx, and Torso with Marc Andreyko.

Brian's other projects include the Harvey, Eisner, and Eagle Award nominated Powers with Mike Oeming from Image, and the Hollywood tell-all Fortune and Glory from Oni Press, which Entertainment Weekly gave an A.

Powers is in active development at Sony as a feature film with Frank Oz attached to direct. Brian wrote and co-executive produced the pilot episode of MTV's CGI animated Spider-Man TV show.

He lives in Portland, Oregon, with his wife Alisa, his daughter Olivia, and his dogs, Shroeder and Buster.
