Ender's Game: Recruiting Valentine is a one-shot publication of Marvel Comics as part of its Ender's Game series, adapted by Marvel Comics from the novel Ender's Game (1985), a science fiction novel by American author Orson Scott Card. It and its sequel Speaker for the Dead (1986) both won Hugo and Nebula Awards, making Card the only author to win both of American science fiction's top prizes in consecutive years. Its first two just-concluded concurrent series, Ender's Game: Battle School and Ender's Shadow: Battle School--naturally already posted here by yours truly--dealt with the protagonist Ender Wiggin and his friend Bean but left out subplots involving Peter's other genius older siblings, Valentine and Peter as found in the novel (and who will become leading characters in Card's later Ender Wiggin novels). This one-shot attempts to remedy that.

Zombie killer!


Skeleton Hand was a very successful pre-Code title for ACG. According to the excellent article on ACG by Michael Vance in Alter Ego #61 (highly recommended!) all of the "supernaturals" sold well for that company. They used a lot of artists, some of them old-timers from the beginnings of comic books, which included artist Jon L. Blummer, who drew the eerie zombie-crime story, "Death For Hire."

Blummer drew for several companies, including very early DC. He had a style that reminds me a bit of Rudy Palais. According to biographical information I've read, Blummer had only a couple of years left to live when he drew this story, which appeared in Skeleton Hand #1 in 1952. He died in 1955.
