New Jason Hofius Book release

I just got this email about Jason Hofius' new book. And yes, he's co-authoring with George Khoury again, like he did for the BOTP book.

AGE OF TV HEROES finally ships March 24!

You can see an exclusive 12-page PDF Preview of the book now at:

http://www.twomorrows.com/media/AgeofTVHeroesPreview.pdf

Age of TV Heroes examines the history of the live-action television adventures of everyoneÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s favorite comic book heroes! This handsome full-color hardcover features the in-depth stories of the actors and behind-the-scene players that made the classic super-hero television programs we all grew up with. From legendary shows like The Adventures of Superman and Batman, to the modern era of The Tick and Smallville, itÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s colorfully presented in vivid detail, lavishly designed with a bevy of color photographs. Included are new and exclusive interviews and commentary from Adam West (Batman), Lynda Carter (Wonder Woman), Patrick Warburton (The Tick), Nicholas Hammond (Spider-Man), William Katt (The Greatest American Hero), Jack Larson (The Adventures of Superman), John Wesley Shipp (The Flash), Jackson Bostwick (Shazam!), and many more, including comments from Reb Brown, Stephen J. Cannell, Chip Kidd, Stan Lee, Noel Neill, John Romita, Alex Ross, Ilya Salkind, Lou Scheimer, Lorenzo Semple, Lyle Waggoner, and other actors, producers, and crew. Re-experience the pop culture birth of the super-hero phenomenon, and relive the first time that these heroes came to life on TV! Written by Jason Hofius and George Khoury, with a new cover by superstar painter Alex Ross!

192-page FULL-COLOR HARDCOVER, $39.95 cover price (ON PRESS NOW!)

Thank you for posting this TJ.
I received that email as well and wondered about mentioning the book in another thread.

I am wondering if BOTP is mentioned in this new book.

Hi all!

If it is, it's only in passing. The book focuses entirely on TV versions of comic superheroes, not heroes made for TV.
