Straight Talkin' from Howard Chaykin! The feisty writer/artist gives us a candid interview on his superlative career in comics, from early days assisting Gil Kane, Wallace Wood, and Gray Morrow, to his '80s super-star years on American Flagg and The Shadow, to his current work on Mighty Love and Challengers of the Unknown! Plus a massive gallery of rarely-seen and unpublished artwork, all behind a brand-new cover by Howard. Also, this issue's CBA Classic explores the'70s "Horror-Mood" black-&-white mags published by Skywald with a massive tribute to the late writer/editor of Psycho and Nightmare, "Archaic" Alan Hewetson. Plus a mini interview with Leah Moore & John Reppion about Wild Girl, a Sonny Liew sketchbook section, and our usual views & reviews, and more cool stuff! -- 112 pages, Diamond: MAY043054
