Since the debut of writer Alan Moore's AMERICA'S BEST COMICS line, readers have thrilled to the adventures found in its ongoing series: TOM STRONG, PROMETHEA, TOP 10, and TOMORROW STORIES. Now new readers (as well as those who were with us from the beginning) can catch up with ABC's foremost science hero - the one who started it all - in TOM STRONG BOOK ONE, a trade paperback reprinting the first seven issues of the popular ongoing series. Topped with a new cover by series artists Chris Sprouse & Al Gordon, TOM STRONG BOOK ONE's title character is a timeless wonder who could have sprung straight from the pulps of the '20s and '30s. A physical and mental superhuman, Tom's complex history is revealed not only in the collection's first story, "How Tom Strong Got Started," but in issues showcasing an incredible cast of characters - Tom's beautiful wife Dhalua, daughter of a mighty chieftain; Tom and Dhalua's illustrious daughter, Tesla; the enhanced ape King Solomon; and, of course, Tom's robotic valet, Pneuman. Joined by guest artists Arthur Adams, Dave Gibbons, Gary Frank, and Jerry Ordway, Moore, Sprouse and Gordon recount Tom's remarkable exploits over a nearly century-long career. Tom and his allies face a range of enemies that includes the ruthless, Moriarty-like foe Paul Saveen; the mechanized Az-Techs; a prehuman monster called The Pangean; the Modular Man; and Nazi super-woman Ingrid Weiss, who regards Tom not only as an enemy...but as an ideal mate. Featuring battles in other times, in other realms and on other worlds, the TOM STRONG BOOK ONE trade paperback proves that, when it comes to science heroes, Tom Strong is America's Best! TOM STRONG BOOK ONE is a 208-page trade paperback from AMERICA'S BEST COMICS $12.70 USA / $18.95 Can
