COMING SOON! - A Lost Classic Restored. A Timeless Tale Reborn.
Step back into the Golden Age of Comics with this meticulously reprinted edition of Arabian Nights, originally illustrated by pioneering artist Lillian Chestney in 1943. One of the earliest and most remarkable women in comic book history, Chestney brought Scheherazade’s legendary tales to life with lush, imaginative artwork that still dazzles today.

Howard, Clark Ashton Smith, and Fritz Leiber drew deeply from its themes of adventure, magic, and myth.
