Description:	Elvis, Hero of the Comic Books is the first comprehensive record of Elvis Presley as found in comic books, graphic novels, graphic biographies, and (select) comic strips. Inside this book you will find information on more than 400 titles of comic and graphic novel/biography books, caricatures and comic strips directly about Elvis, those in which he has a cameo role, and others that were inspired by him. Also included is artwork from a number of releases and an eclectic variety of Elvis related comic book ephemera. Elvis, Hero of the Comic Books features more than 600 images. In addition, the book features various Sidebars, which present a more detailed account of a particular title or issue. The narrative themes found in the releases presented in this book are eclectic, ranging from straight biographies, Elvis as crime fighter, Elvis clones and Elvis in the super-hero realm, to anthropomorphic Elvis, Elvis parodies/satire, and Elvis as demon, vampire, and zombie (this is a particularly popular theme). There is even a fairy godmother, a Lady Hellvis and a "For Mature Readers Only" section! Also released as hardback version. Source: book back cover.
