The Freebooters is a lively, character-driven graphic narrative set in a fantastic, ancient milieu that superficially bears resemblance to a world that will be familiar to longtime Windsor-Smith fans who remember his work on another famous warrior. This volume collects the entirety of Windsor-Smith''s "The Freebooter" stories from the acclaimed BWS: Storyteller comic book series from the early 1990s, including a full-length chapter from the unpublished tenth issue, plus more than 50 pages of new story. The Freebooters is amongst the most raucous and literate comics of Windsor-Smith''s career, the culmination of a lifetime of experience and knowledge, approaching his comics with a seriousness of purpose while never losing his unmistakable sense of humor. A ripping good yarn!

Adastra en África es una importante, y hasta ahora inédita narración gráfica del celebérrimo Barry Windsor-Smith. Su protagonista es Adastra, el personaje más popular de la serie Jóvenes Dioses que BWS publicó en su innovadora revista Storyteller. Este conmovedor relato había de ser la tercera y última parte de la magnífica historia Muerte en vida publicada en la colección The Uncanny X-Men de Marvel Comics. Aguardó durante más de una década en los archivos de BWS después de que Marvel, cuyos directivos no habían supervisado el proceso de creación, se negara a publicarlo. BWS pensó que su trabajo era demasiado bueno como para perderse, así que lo rehízo para que su protagonista fuera la Princesa Adastra, exiliada en la Tierra por su madre, la Reina Organa de Orgasma. En este libro se encuentra también una divertida e irrespetuosa entrevista con la irrefrenable Adastra, ahora en Nueva York tras un tiempo de ausencia, así como viñetas no incluidas en la versión final del cómic.

Una divertida e hilarante saga, y, al mismo tiempo, una de las grandes creaciones de uno de los maestros del cómic norteamericano: Young Gods, con guión y dibujo de Barry Windsor-Smith. En unos escenarios que nos recuerdan los de las añejas creaciones de Jack Kirby, tres jóvenes dioses buscan los recursos más disparatados para huir de los compromisos y restricciones que los atan. Una parodia genial y, al mismo tiempo, llena de humanidad (¡aunque sus protagonistas sean inmortales!)

Mr. Fantastic, the Thing, the Invisible Girl, and the Torch battle numerous villains and partner with other superheroes.

Collects the adventures of the X-Men from 1985-1987. The X-Men go through many changes beginning with the trial of Magneto. Then, Rachel Summers becomes Phoenix, Lady Deathstrike becomes a cyborg, Moonstar turns into a Valkyrie, and much more. Guest-stars the original X-Factor, Power-Pack, and Thor.

This is the third volume in a series collecting the early Conan comic-book stories by Roy Thomas and Barry Windsor-Smith. Originally created in the 1930s, Robert E. Howard''s Conan the Barbarian has survived to emerge as one of this century''s most powerful and popular characters. Even more impressive than the character''s lasting appeal over the past seven decades, is the caliber of talent involved in all of the various Conan incarnations. Of those, there are few that speak as clearly and as uniquely as artist Barry Windsor-Smith. Over the course of these early stories, Windsor-Smith''s stunning evolution from comic-book cartoonist to full-fledged artist is apparent and thrilling to behold. This volume collects issues #14, #15, and #17-#21 and features completely remastered color.

Collects the entire Young Gods stories, including the previously unpublished issues #10 and #11, plus new story material, background information, and behind-the-scenes art! The story and characters are sexy, ribald, and outrageously funny!

Contains various stories featuring Wolverine.

A monthly wall calendar featuring a gorgeous full-color Pre-Raphaelite painting for each month of the year. Barry Windsor-Smith began his career as a comics artist in the late-60s. Working on Marvel''s new "Conan the Barbarian" series, he immediately made a name for himself as one of the most exciting young stylists to arrive upon the scene. Infusing a Pre-Raphaelite influence into comics had never been done before, and Windsor-Smith created many of the most elegant and beloved comics of the 1970s. Then, deciding that mainstream superhero comics were not the best medium to foster his widening artistic ambitions, Windsor-Smith left comics to pursue the creation of single-picture, "easel" works. He released many fine art prints of his own works that reflected a more refined pursuit of his Pre-Raphaelite, Romantic and Symbolist interests. It is these handsome works that comprise the majority of the "BWS OPUS Calendar." 12 full-color plates plus covers and monthly calendar in this oversized calendar.

Adastra in Africa spotlights a young, exiled goddess traveling to an African village and striving to bring salvation to the famine-stricken area. It''s a compelling tale of an outsider attempting to use her own non-traditional methods to help a defiantly proud people regain its vitality, without compromising the tribe''s heritage and values. This stand-alone graphic novel features some of the most beautifully intricate and graceful drawing of Windsor-Smith''s legendary career.ufeff
