Sigurd Dragonsbane, one of the greatest creations of legendary comic book writer/artist Jack "The King" Kirby, returns in an epic tale of valor and victory! When the Fell Mists, which have shrouded the borders of Valhalla for time immemorial, rise to expose other Mythlands beyond his own, Sigurd and his brethren Balduur, Honir, and Heimdall revel in the knowledge that they may once again ride abroad into unknown lands, lending arms to those in need. Tahmina, a princess imprisoned by fearsome dragons in distant Persia, sends a psychic projection to Valhalla, requesting their aid. Across strange summits and seas, they rush into adventure... facing witches, hulking beasts, and fiery she-demons along the way!

From his days before Marvel, through the Sliver Age and on into designing and creating the characters we know and love still today (including Wolverine, the Punisher and many, many more), Romita: Generations covers it all.

Captain Victory is the greatest space hero of all! When the fearsome warrior Mekkanos finally tracks down his ship, the valiant captain pays the ultimate price... but his death is only the beginning! Having the most strategic mind in the entire Ranger Corps, he's far too valuable to risk total annihilation, and his superiors long ago inacted a contingency plan: maintain clone bodies, that - with a memory download - can be sent into space to die again and again and again. Only this time, two copies were created, the memory downloads incomplete and bodies ejected into far-flung time and space. Can a teenage, amnesiac Victory survive the dangers of 1970s New York City? Can a scarred, hulking Victory survive a hazardous alien landscape millions of light-years away? The race is on, as the loyal crew of the Dreadnaught: Tiger embark on a mind-blowing rescue mission! Born from the fertile imagination of comic book legend Jack Kirby, Captain Victory bounds into cosmic adventure anew courtesy of writer Joe Casey (Sex, Uncanny X-Men) and artist Nathan Fox (Blue Estate, Haunt). Boldly experimental in story and design, this worthy addition to The King's legacy features guest art contributions from Farel Dalrymple, Nick Dragotta, Ulises Farinas, Michel Fiffe, Jim Mahfood, Benjamin Marra, Dan McDaid, Grant Morrison, Jim Rugg, and Connor Willumsen.
