捡来的Herbie Popnecker

封面

一眼相中,爱不释手。之所以说是捡来的,是因为原价49.95刀却被俺50Rmb一本搞来,全新,其中一本还是未开封的。抱回来疯查一统,发现还有第三本,暂时与其无缘呐。
前两卷收录了《Unknown Worlds》第20期, 《Forbidden Wrolds》第73、94、110、114和第116期,以及漫画《Herbie》第1-14期。

简介


Herbie Popnecker, 一部将英雄(super hero)滑稽化的漫画作品,首次露脸刊登于美国漫画集团(ACG)出版的《Forbidden World》1958年12月号,这部作品成为滑稽英雄漫画的开山——一个又矮又胖、愚蠢幼稚的人物形象。他的天赋加上他嘴里成天叼着的神奇棒棒糖,使得他能和动物说话、能飞、可以隐身,还能穿越时空。靠着这些独特的漫画特点,这位不靠谱的小英雄成为了历史上最强大最有名的英雄之一。

这位不靠谱的小英雄早期主要刊登于《Forbidden Worlds》和《Unknown Worlds》。由Richard E. Hughes编写(曾用笔名Shane O'Shea),Ogden Whitney绘制。他的性格特征也在每一次刊登得以完善:总是面无表情、简单的用语、好色,不仅是世界各国领导人的顾问,同时拥有比魔鬼还要强大的能力。

1964年4月《Hebie》漫画书出版,到1967年2月,也就是ACG转让的前期,一共出了23期。(意译)

1-Volume One护封介绍:

Make way for the Fat Fury! Herbie Archives Volume One reprints stories from the earliest days of the world's unlikeliest superhero, from his brief appearances in Forbidden worlds and Unknown Worlds to the first five issues of the Herbie comic book. Created by the imaginative team of writer Richard E. Hughes and artist Ogden Whitney, Herbie's dry wit and cool attitude get him through all sorts of extremely strange and surreal adventures.

This volume collects meterial from Unknown Worlds issue 20, Forbidden Wrolds issue 73, 94, 110, 114, and 116, and Herbie issues 1 though 5, originally published by American Comics Group, Inc.

2-Volume Two护封介绍:

"Whaddya mean, impossible? That's Herbie!" Legendary comics publisher ACG had a hit on its hands in the mid-1960s with the adventures of Herbie Poonecker, a plump lump of a kid who secretly possesses nearly unlimited superpowers with the help of his collection of incredible lollipops. Join Herbie as he takes on goofy cavemen, joins George Washington's army, gets the better of pop-culture figures like Gregory Peck and the Queen of England, and dons the unassuming costume of the Fat Fury for the very first time!
