"Captain Blue Hen is thrilled to host David Michelinie and Brett Breeding. So many of David's characters and storylines are a part of the Marvel Movie's DNA," says Joe Murray, owner of Captain Blue Hen Comics and President of the Board of ComicsPRO, "Venom, Carnage, Scott and Cassie Lang of the Ant-Man movies, Taskmaster from Black Widow and Ghost from Thunderbolts, and Rhoadey from the Iron Man films all got their start from David's typewriter. He was also a writer for the weddings of both Spider-Man and Superman. We're proud to offer a full collection of David's works from his personal files."

"To also have Brett Breeding for this event is a spectacular double feature," adds Murray. "Brett was infamous for being the artist on Superman #75, The Death of  Superman, along with Dan Jurgens. To commemorate the 'Death of Godzilla', publisher IDW enlisted Breeding and Jurgens to recreate their iconic cover this time featuring the King of Kaiju. Brett and David collaborated on a number of titles including Thundercats and Superman."
