Joe Hill
Joe Hill / g.i. joe trade paperbacks SAVE SHOP ONLINE SALES...
The definitive study of Joe Hill, American labor martyr, proletarian fold hero, and song writer.
"Joe Hill became symbollic of the kind of individual sacrifice that would make a revolutionary new society possible. Thus labor radicals, communists, and novelists and playwrights such as John Dos Passos, Wallace Stegner, and Barrie Stavis used the circumstances of Hill's convictions and manner of his death to create a legend that transformed 'just another forgotten migrant worker' into 'The Man Who Never Died," as the song which Paul Robeson enthralled audiences in the 1930s and 1940s had it . . . Gibbs Smith has served us well be recapturing the memory of a man whose songs, to quote another wobbly, evoked the spirit of radicals who were the 'very epitome of guts and gallantry,' a handful of homeless heroes touched by true romance. Men and women whose spirits were stirred far above their belly-need; men and women inspired by visions of heaven on earth. Now, as then, society needs such men and women."
--Melvyn Dubofsky, The New York Times Book Review

Customer Review :
Did the other reviewers miss the point, or did I? : Joe Hill
This is a well-researched, fairly well-composed telling of the life and the trial and execution of Mr. Hill, which led to the famous and wonderful song, "I Dreamed I Saw Joe Hill Last Night." However, it convincingly argues that Joe most likely did MURDER two people that night in Salt Lake City in a botched robbery. So the explosive part of the story is not that "The copper bosses killed you, Joe" as the song declares, but that Joe got a fair trial, for his era, even in Utah. He was his own worst enemy during the legal proceedings, unwilling to cooperate with his attorneys and unable or unwilling to declare a credible alibi. This does not negate the power of some of his labor songs, or the power of songs about him, for songs do not have to tell the truth to be good songs. But to see four reviews, none of which point out that Joe was guilty, after all, is amazing. You can't read this book and respect Mr. Hill quite as much after you are done as you did when you were ignorant of the circumstances of the case. The song says "They framed you on a murder charge" and there has NEVER been any believable evidence produced to support the line. I wish the song WAS true, frankly.

Great Character : Deadpool Classic, Vol. 1
You get Deadpool's first appearance in New Mutants #1, his first two mini-series, and the first issue of the classic Joe Kelly run. Good stuff. Sure, it skips a few of his X-Force appearances, but those will probably end up in an X-Force Classic one of these days where they will work better anyway. Support this book so we can get the complete Joe Kelly run collected.

G.I. Joe Vs. The Transformers Volume 1 (v. 1)
G.I. Joe Vs. The Transformers Volume 1 (v. 1) / g.i. joe trade paperbacks CHEAPEST ON LINE DEALS...
Both G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero and the Transformers have been loved by millions across the world for years. This story begs to ask WHAT IF the Transformers, living alien robots from another world, fell into the hands of COBRA, a small, quickly growing organization bent on world domination? When Cobra launches its first attack on U.S. soil, armed with tanks, jets and vehicles that transform into giant robots, it's too much for the regular armed forces to handle, and G.I. Joe is formed to stop them. Freeing the heroic Optimus Prime from Cobra's control is our world's only hope..../ G.I. Joe Vs. The Transformers Volume 1 (v. 1) / g.i. joe trade paperbacks

Timeless yet always fresh. : G.I. Joe Vs. The Transformers Volume 1 (v. 1)
This is absolutely one of the masterpieces of my collection. The mix of GI Joe and Transformers improves both. The Transformers feel larger and more epic than they ever had before, and the Joe's seem more fearless when battling for freedom among the giant transformers.
As a Transformers fan, I really appreciate the depth and accuracy given to each of the (relatively few) Transformers who star in this story. As a new GI Joe fan, it was a great introduction to some intersting characters.
This book is action packed, but remains fresh clever. The art does well to convey the story and is still engaging during the third re-read. The tone of this book is positive, extolling the virtues of bravery, cooperation, and heroism.
It's only fair to warn the buyer that this praise is equally true of the next two volumes as well. Book I is a good mix of attention on on the Joe's and the Transformers. Book II gives most of the attention to the Joe's, and book III leans more toward the Transformers. All three serve up good action, sparse but enjoyable dialog and clever plot shifts. If you're only going to buy one, buy this one to start, then buy the other two anyway. You'll love them!
