                          PREVIEW OF PREVIEWS

Diamond has updated their web site for the new PREVIEWS out next
week. Writer/Ad Coordinator Vince Brusio is the designated
editorial writer for Previews' "The Splash Page" which is our
source material

Stewbum of the Starscape!
Horror comics were especially big in the 1950s, but sci-fi titles
started to carve a bigger niche when EC Comics created later
amalgams like Weird Science-Fantasy, and Incredible Science
Fiction. These series boasted names like Reed Crandall, Al
Feldstein, Frank Frazetta, Angelo Torres, Al Wiiliamson, and
Wally Wood. And fans took notice of the talent. They couldn't
help but pay attention.

Expect to see such reactions from readers when Image Comics
unveils a new book from the creator of Sea of Red. Rick
Remender's Fear Agent #1 is definitely a tip of the hat to the
classics that came before it.

Artists Tony Moore (Walking Dead) and Sean Parson also have a big
stake in this title, as both artists recognize EC's high water
mark for sci-fi storytelling. They know good sci-fi should also
involve elements of war and horror comics for extra long flavor,
gum decay, and curvature of the spinal cord. After all, the human
condition is just as important as the monster who wants to eat
it. And what's funnier than monsters eating people?

Lessons have been learned, tested, and applied in Fear Agent #1 -
but not in the way you would expect. Yes, it's time for a new
direction in storytelling. But this book is not recycled space
opera. Fear Agent is shards of twisted metal adrift in the black
vacuum, ready to tear open your spacesuit, and cripple the NASA
escape pods. All on board the scuttled space station can watch in
horror as Rick Remender punches holes in our air tanks!

The premise of the new book is that humans no longer have the
luxury of depending on The Fear Agents. The protectors that
successfully drove away three merciless alien forces have
disbanded, and left humanity to its own devices. Good luck with
interstellar predators!

So the question is what happens to Earth when you take away the
safety net? It appears that we're left only with generic bug
spray in the form of Heath Huston. Although he is a former Fear
Agent, his penchant for alcohol does not inspire a lot of
confidence for those who want planetary life insurance. Betting
on the abilities of Heath is like betting on a janitor with a
high score in Space Invaders: neither person looks qualified for
eliminating extraterrestrials.

Imagine the carnage, then, when this sole Fear Agent has to face
the threat of jellyfish brains, ape-men, and fascist robots. One
must hope that the guy who bounces around the stars drunk off his
nut can pull it together quick enough so that we don't wake up in
the morning with chestburster heartburns.

Look for Fear Agent #1 from Image Comics in the Premiere section
of Previews!

Taking It To The Street!
Mention the words "Street Fighter" to your comrades, and they'll
conjure up references to the 1994 movie with Jean-Claude Van
Damme, or the classic video arcade game that's ready to celebrate
its 15th anniversary.

This is your cue to let them know that the legend has grown. You
could see this for yourself if you went to last year's San Diego
Comic-Con International, when Capcom and Udon Entertainment
shared a booth to show off their new Street Fighter goodies.

So when you catch a glimpse of Street Fighter II #0 in this
month's catalog, know upfront that this isn't a one-shot deal.
The book is offered at a special introductory price because it's
an introductory jumping-on point for new readers, and it sets the
stage for the full relaunch of Street Fighter II #1 next month.
Ryu will soon face fighters from different disciplines around the
world. The new Street Fighter mythos will be dark and vengeful.
Ryu's driving force to vanquish opponents is fueled by his anger
over Gouken's tragic death. Retribution is in order, and Ryu
refuses to compromise.

Characters also unfamiliar with the idea of compromise include
Ryu's enemy, Akuma. The fierce villain is a key player in the
Street Fighter mythos, and helps to make Ryu's quest difficult,
if not impossible. So fans who cheer for the bad guy will flip
when they see that the Street Fighter: Akuma 8-Inch Bust
continues Udon's line of high-end collectibles. Standing 8" tall,
each bust is individually hand-cast and painted, and is limited
to 2,500 pieces.

Look for both Street Fighter II #0 and Street Fighter: Akuma 8-
Inch Bust from Udon Entertainment in the Comics section of
Previews!

It's A Deadly Day in the Neighborhood...
Everyone's favorite wall-crawler is coming at you with another
amazing monthly title from Marvel Comics. Friendly Neighborhood
Spider-Man #1 is written by comic writer extraordinaire Peter
David. The new title brings fans into the first part of a 12-part
cross-over arc called "The Other," which spans titles Friendly
Neighborhood Spider-Man, Amazing Spider-Man, and Marvel Knights
Spider-Man.

Accompanying David on this new Spider-Man book is fan-favorite
penciler, Mike Weiringo. The artist has recently been applauded
and given accolades for his work on Fantastic Four with former
Kingdom Come writer, Mark Waid. You can bet that Weiringo's style
will bring radiance to the pages of Friendly Neighborhood Spider-
Man, as well as provide incredible covers to the series that will
soon make people stop and think when they look over the comic
racks.

Haunted by unsettling dreams and a disturbing sense of dread,
Peter Parker is convinced that people are out to get him - and
it's making him crazy. The paranoia leaves a bad taste in his
mouth. Cold sweat pushes out of his hot neck, his ears burn, his
chest feels heavy ... it's not a good time to be Peter Parker.
But aside from this inner turmoil, "The Other, Part 1" introduces
readers to a new and dangerous addition to Spidey's rogue's
gallery that goes by the name of "Tracer." In addition to
contending with Tracer, Spidey must also deal with chilling news
that will change his personal life in a most unpleasant manner.
The underlying theme of this story is that even the most
invincible hero can fall because of his fragile humanity.

Teaming with fellow Spidey writers J. Michael Straczynski and
Reggie Hudin, David is helping to weave an intricate web of plots
aimed at breaking the will of Spider-Man. The seeds were planted
way back in Straczynski's first story arc on Amazing Spider-Man.
And now the seeds are sprouting! Be sure to check out the first
part of this story arc in the Marvel Previews supplement!
