Download or read book Heroes in the Night written by Tea Krulos and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Watchman didn't arrive in a Batmobile but drove a tan, four-door Pontiac. He was in costume, of course—a trench coat, motorcycle gloves, army boots, a domino mask, and a red hooded sweatshirt emblazoned with a W logo. Journalist Tea Krulos had spoken to him over the phone but never face-to-mask. By the end of the interview, he wasn't sure if the Watchman was delightfully eccentric or completely crazy. But he was going to find out. Heroes in the Night traces Krulos's journey into the strange subculture of Real Life Superheroes, random citizens who have adopted comic book&–style personas and hit the streets to fight injustice. Some concentrate on humanitarian or activist missions—helping the homeless, gathering donations for food banks, or delivering toys to children—while others actively patrol their neighborhoods looking for crime to fight. By day, these modern Clark Kents work as dishwashers, pencil pushers, and executives in Fortune 500 companies. But by night, only the Shadow knows. Well, the Shadow and Tea Krulos. Through historical research, extensive interviews, and many long hours walking patrol in Brooklyn, Seattle, San Diego, Minneapolis, and Vancouver, British Columbia, Krulos discovered what being a RLSH is all about. He shares not only their shining, triumphant moments but some of their ill-advised, terrifying disasters as well. It's all part of the life of a superhero. As the Watchman explains, &“If everyone made little changes in what they did, gave a little more to charity, watched out for their neighbors, we wouldn't have the problems that we have.&”

Download or read book The Original Black Panther The Life Legacy of Jim Mitchell written by John Cosper and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-02-28 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before there was Bobo Brazil, before there was television, there was the original Black Panther! Jim Mitchell wasn't the first African American to make a living in the sport of professional wrestling, but the Louisville, Kentucky native was the first to become and international superstar. Trained by the great welterweight champion Jack Reynolds, Mitchell broke out in the business in the early 1930s, becoming a main event superstar in the Indianapolis territory by the age of 23. Jim Mitchell became a top draw in every territory he worked, from his adopted home base of Northwest Ohio to the Boston area to the Pacific Northwest to sunny Southern California as well as sojourns to Europe, Canada, and Australia. He feuded with some of the biggest heels of his era including Danny McShain, Wild Red Berry, and Martino Angelo. His most storied rivalry was with none other than Gorgeous George, a feud that culminated in a riot in the hot summer of 1949 at the Olympic Auditorium. He was a trailblazing African American athlete whose exploits were overshadowed by the advent of television and the rise of a new generation of stars, not the least of which was Bobo Brazil. Wrestling historian John Cosper takes you back to the golden age of professional wrestling and uncovers the lost story of a true pioneer. The Original Black Panther is filled with stories of Mitchell's exploits taken not only from the newspapers of the day, but from a treasure trove of documents found in Jim Mitchell's home years after his death. More than 100 images of programs, posters, ledger books, personal letters, and photographs from Mitchell's own archive bring the story of this amazing man to life. With a foreword written by WWE Hall of Fame Mark Henry, Jim Mitchell's biography is a must read for every professional wrestling fan. It's the long lost story of the man who broke ground for future generations and fought the prejudices of his day by becoming a champion in and out of the ring. "Wrestling historian John Cosper has done it again. His newest book, The Original Black Panther: The Life and Legacy of Jim Mitchell is a fascinating journey into the history of one of wrestling's forgotten superstars. This book is compelling, informative, and leave you wanting more. Major kudos to Mr. Cosper. Another great job!" - Tim Hornbaker, author of "Death of the Territories"

Download or read book Queen of the Ring written by Jaime Hernandez and published by Fantagraphics Books. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past 40 years, acclaimed graphic novelist Jaime Hernandez has been creating a Love and Rockets-adjacent world ― set in the heyday of 1960s and ’70s women’s wrestling and lucha libre! ― with an entirely separate cast of characters who have aged and evolved: the beautiful and brutal Bettie Rey, the I.F.W. Pacific Women’s Champion ― a.k.a. Golden Girl ― as well as former champions Pantera Negra, Miss Kitty Perez, and many more. As Hernandez puts it, “It’s my Love and Rockets world that’s not my Love and Rockets world.” This best-of book spotlights the women who are often ignored in pro wrestling in 125 full color illustrations: pin-ups, action shots, fake wrestling magazine covers, all presented in a large paperback format that echoes the lucha libre magazines of the 1960s. Hernandez also discusses the work in an interview with fellow cartoonist Katie Skelly. Despite having created one of the most expansive and remarkable casts of characters of any cartoonist who ever lived (under the umbrella of the ongoing L&R comic book series), acclaimed graphic novelist Jaime Hernandez ― Will Eisner Hall of Famer; Eisner, Harvey, Ignatz, and PEN Award winner; L.A. Times Book Prize winner; and on a very short list of contenders for the title of America’s Greatest Living Cartoonist ― has been privately amassing a body of work that no one else has ever seen for over 40 years. Until now.
