The Modern Masters series continues its look into the lives and work of today's top comic-book artists, this time spotlighting Kevin Nowlan. Cover artist, penciler, inker, letterer, colorist-even writer-he has done it all, and done it masterfully. Kevin's work on comic-book icons Batman and Superman ranks among the best in those characters' rich histories. His humorous "Jack B. Quick" feature - co-created with industry legend, Alan Moore - not only allowed him to explore his Mid-Western roots, but also won him an Eisner Award along the way. This volume features an in-depth interview with Nowlan, fully illustrated with rare and never-before published artwork, as well as a gallery section of sketches and finished pieces.

Ian Grey does not accept the traditional harsh assessment of Boris. The first years of his reign were successful, but slowly the power of the rival families. the Romanovs and the Belskys, grew. He remained in power throughout his lifetime but after his death the opposition proved too strong for the Godunov family, and his son Tsar Fedor was murdered. The years following his death were those of killing and internal war which surpassed even the horrors of the reign of Ivan the Terrible. A fascinating and sympathetic biography.

The Mongols formed one of the finest armies ever known--and when they swept across the Danube on Christmas Day 1241, the west lay at the mercy of these "horsemen from hell." From a wealth of contemporary sources comes the story of these soldiers, and especially of Subedei Bahadur, the illiterate military genius who brought 20th-century warfare to Medieval Europe. A fascinating examination of their tactics and training--good enough to invent strategies that Rommel and Patton would later use to such devastating effect--proves the Mongols were more than mere barbarians: they were martial masterminds of the highest order.

The US Army had a unique tactical doctrine during World War II, placing the emphasis for tank fighting on its Tank Destroyer Command whose main early-war vehicle was the M10 3-inch Gun Motor Carriage, based on the reliable M4A2 Sherman tank chassis. This durable and versatile vehicle saw combat service from the North Africa campaign in 1943. By 1944, its gun was not powerful enough and it was rearmed with the new 90 mm gun, becoming the M36 90mm Gun Motor Carriage. This book details one of the only US armoured vehicles capable of dealing with the Panther and Tiger during the Battle of the Bulge.
