Legend Of Lady Satan (HC)
Gwandanaland Comics #2417-HC: She is the Damsel Of Darkness! Her Complete Skywald Stories!
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
She is the loyal lover of the Devil – the damsel of darkness – she is LADY SATAN; but it's not that simple, because within one body lives two women. One is the “Black Witch of Salem,” evil, and the other is Anne, who is good and struggles to regain control of her own body. This strange series appeared in Scream #2-4 (drawn by Ricardo Villamonte) and Psycho #19 (drawn by Pablo Marcos). This was a short-lived series from a short-lived publisher, both a great shame – but we are proud to offer it here, collected into one book for the first time ever.
Launched by Golden Age veteran Sol Brodsky and I.W. Publishing's pirate reprinter Israel Waldman, Skywald (using parts of each last name) was going to be the next force in comics! The long list of established professionals suiggested that this would be the case: Writers T. Casey Brennan, Gerry Conway, Steve Englehart, Gardner Fox, Doug Moench, Dave Sim, Len Wein, and Marv Wolfman, and artists Rich Buckler, Gene Day Vince Colletta, Bill Everett, Bruce Jones, Pablo Marcos, Syd Shores, Chic Stone, and Tom Sutton (plus a little work from newcomer John Byrne). The line centered on horror, with NIGHTMARE, PSYCHO and SCREAM headlining. The stories were top-notch and the artwork unparalleled, and for five years Skywald offered masters of the genre. Alas, this small company could not compete with the power of major distributors of Marvel and DC, being pushed off the newsstands, until in 1975 the last Skywald issue was published.
Skywald produced incredible stories, but they were negligent in one very important task – they failed to copyright their horror mags. So, for the first time in Gwandanaland ComicsTM history, we're able to bring you some great books from the 1970s! Look for the individual issues, economical four-issue collections, and even some bigger than that!
