So sweet! This will have several covers, including a Star Brand and a Warriors of Plasm cover!

How cool is this? Looks like it's a picture book as well. I'll enjoy the Valiant coverage for sure, as well as those 80s and 90s lost universes. It will be fun to read about some of the stuff before my time as well. I have quite a few issues from the 60s that fall within this book.

I of course helped with the New Universe checklist, which includes appearances of the characters all the way up to the present day. Fellow board member Josh Deck helped with that as well.

I don't think DUs can ever be quit, they are always there, calling from the shadowy long boxes....

That checklist was a hell of a lot of work between you, me, & a guy named Lee! :high-five:

I am **super** excited for this book - I also contributed some comic cover scans and a couple of original pages of New U art from my ever-growing original art collection (one of which is a John Romita Jr page from Starbrand #1 that is a portion of the origin story of Ken getting the brand!).

There is something else I was involved in for this book, but I won’t say what until it is actually released for sale - just in case it doesn’t pan out for any reason.

Mind you, I’m also extremely impressed by the Atlas Iron Jaw cover by Lee Weeks & the Defiant Dark Dominion cover by JG Jones too. Some pretty epic new cover artwork for this book (although, I think the JG Jones piece is possibly a formerly unpublished piece done for the series back in the 90’s?)

That's really neat... I'm torn between the Starbrand cover and the Crusaders cover.

I’ve received permission to say I’ve seen a draft of some of the interior pages of this book, and they look spectacular. This is going to be a must have for fans of these universes.

Was in NYC the last two weeks for work. Stopped by Metropolis Comics and they had 1 hard cover copy of Dead Universes guide left so I finally have my copy. Flipped through the book on the plane - it looks great. A very cool project.

Right on man! I think they did a great job on the book, and I’m not just saying that because I was a contributor! I ended up getting a couple of copies of it - I have the Star Brand cover and the Iron Jaw one as well.

I don’t know if you’re much of a New Universe fan, but I hope you enjoy the article I wrote for that section if you happen to read it (which started off as an interview, but they removed the questions and just ran my answers instead) 8-)
