Forbidden Planet, The Twilight Zone, The Blob, The Outer Limits, The Day the Earth Stood Still: The 1950s spawned the greatest sci-fi stories ever! Bug-eyed monsters from other worlds invaded our movies, literature, television, and comic books. The young cartoonist, Steve Ditko, honed his storytelling skills throughout the 1950s on mystery, horror, and some of the farthest-out sci-fi comics of all time. Steve Ditko: Space Wars collects a wealth of the Ditko's finest work prior to his world-shaking creation with Stan Lee, Spider-Man! Ditko's eclectic, sometimes surrealistic work proves retro-futuristic as he takes us into the cosmos to find star-crossed lovers in the backstabbing debacle, Dead Reckoning. Then, the deadliest space ship in the galaxy hovers menacingly over us while the invader demands complete surrender and our military warns it's useless to resist in The Conquered Earth! These plus The Creature from Corpus III, The King of Planetoid X, and The Juggernauts of Jupiter are just a sampling of the pulse-pounding tales featured in Steve Ditko: Space Wars.
