description: Meet Michael T. Gilbert's "Doc Stearn... Mr. Monster" in a new book featuring seven stories of Forbidden Knowledge culled from his self-titled Eclipse Comics series. Contents include Mr. Monster classics, such as "The Case of the Reluctant Werewolf," "The Hemo Horror," "No Escape from Dimension-X" and more. Comics legend Alan Moore contributes not only the Foreword, in which he elevates Mr. Monster (alongside Captain Marvel, The Spirit, The Fighting American and Plastic-Man) into his approved pantheon of essential superheroes, but also a story of garbage-gone-bad, "The Riddle of the Recalcitrant Refuse." Supporting Gilbert's efforts to document the frightening facts forming Mr. Monster's Forbidden Knowledge are artists Williams Messner-Loebs, Roger Stewart, Jeff Bonivert, Dave Stevens and Steve Bissette; colorists Steve Oliff and Eric Vincent; and lettering wizard Ken Bruzenak. Witness the terror for yourself in Mr. Monster: His Books of Forbidden Knowledge, Volume One. Read it at your own risk!
