Sadowski will produce a series of new collections of classic comic material for the publisher, reports ICv2.
The first collection, Four Colour Fear: Forgotten Horror Comics of the 1950s, will feature work from industry legends such as Steve Ditko, Frank Frazetta, Jack Cole and Al Williamson.
"I try to provide a service to the reader who has neither the time, inclination, nor bank account to purchase and sift through hundreds of golden age comic books to glean off that precious 10% - the most distinctive and worthwhile examples from a particular genre," said Sadowski.
The other titles planned include Setting the Standard: Alex Toth at Standard Comics 1952-54, The Road to Plastic Man: The Golden Age Comics of Jack Cole 1937-41, Away from Home: EC Artists at Other Companies, Creeping Death from Neptune: Basil Wolverton’s Sci-Fi and Horror Comics 1938-55 and The Comic Book Frankenstein: The Monster According to Dick Briefer.
Four Colour Fear will be released in April 2010.
