, Glen Orbik, Howard Chandler Christy We open this latest issue with Glenn Fabry who was one of the seminal artists from 2000AD in the UK, and then became one of favorite cover illustrators for the Vertigo line of comics in the USA. Then we remember Glen Orbik who brought back all the thrills and chills from the crime pulp covers of the 1940s into the new millennium. We take a look back at Howard Chandler Christy, creator of the Christy Girl, and then at some German children's books about children behaving badly and how they inspired some popular comic strips and animated cartoons.

More like a book than a magazine, illustrators is the art quarterly devoted to the finest illustration art ever published. Truly fabulous art abounds in every issue, much of the art taken from scans of the original artwork.

, John Cullen Murphy, Thomas Yeates This is your chance ever to own part of history as we delve into Prince Valiant, the greatest comics strip created by Hal Foster, explore its origin, the coloring process and showcase samples from original artwork and the color proofs, many scanned at their actual size. We also feature all the artists that followed Foster from John Cullen Murphy to Gary Gianni and the current artist Thomas Yeates, with samples of their work scanned from their original artboards. In addition we interview Cullen Murphy who wrote the script for many years after Foster retired, Meg Nash who colored the strip from 1991 until her father John Cullen Murphy retired in 2004, Mark Schultz the current writer, and Scott Roberts the colorist since 2004. Limited to 1,000 copies.
