“I Shall Destroy All the Civilized Planets: The Comics of Fletcher Hanks” features the work of a comics genius so obscure that even many serious collectors were unaware of Fletcher Hanks...until now.

   

His work is everything that you want a comic book to be but so rarely is: weird, violent, stupid, fun and breathtakingly beautiful all at once. It's like a memory of a comic book story you read as a kid but are now not certain whether it really existed or not because nothing else has ever lived up to that particular type of thrill. It really existed, alright. And it was written and drawn by a guy you never heard of: Fletcher Hanks. Welcome home.

   

Included in the 128 page, full-color book are 15 of Fletcher Hanks’ finest stories as well as a comics Afterword by editor, Paul Karasik, that solves the true-life mystery: “Whatever Happened To Fletcher Hanks?”.
