Batman artist Graham Nolan once again teams up with Ominous Press, bringing you a story 20 years in the making! Ominous Press is very proud to present classic adventure tale of two Navy pilots arriving on a lost island populated by giant monsters and strange aliens: Graham Nolan's Return to Monster Island!

Two years have passed since our heroes, Mac and Duke escaped from their adventure on Monster Island. Now the island has once more appeared on earth, this time OVER the Bering Sea, and our stalwart pilots are once more called to service!

An alien group has taken over the island from the Gooch and Mac and Duke, with the aid of two Russian flyers have to set things right. Can they do it before the island phases out again?

Find out when you read the long awaited sequel to Monster Island...RETURN TO MONSTER ISLAND!

Also available is an all new, full color, version of the story that started it all, Graham Nolan's Monster Island. Printed in an oversized hardcover, this bad boy is beautifully colored by Gregory Wright and is printed at the same size as Graham Nolan's Return to Monster Island to make a complete set.

Kelly “Mac” MacGruder is a brave, strong-willed, Radar Intercept Officer. She’s a romantic at heart, and in love with Duke, but won’t let him know that!

Tommy “Duke” Mitchell is a top-gun Navy pilot, and a huge fan of John Wayne. Cool and confident, Duke thinks he’s a real ladies man ... and, in fact, he is!

(Maj.) Vitaliy Ivanoff is a top Russian MiG-31 pilot. Vitaliy is a proud Russian, well educated and ambitious. He desperately wants to acquire Gooch alien technology.

(Cpt.) Sergei Rustam the WSO (Weapon Systems Operator) of the Russian MiG-31. Sergei is not the sharpest tool in the Russian shed but he is loyal to Vitaliy and his country. He will do what must be done for mission fulfillment.

Awol is a former member of the Gooch (the caretakers of Monster Island), and now the rebel leader. He is a creature of great dignity, very polite, with a slow-burning but powerful fuse.

Rooster is a rebel, somewhat lazy, and although he has a very gruff exterior, is a softy at heart.

The monsters on the island rule the surface, air and water in their containment zone. If anybody finds themselves within their domain … well, that’s just too bad for them!

The long awaited sequel, Return to Monster Island and the all new colorized version of Graham Nolan's classic Monster Island are here, and you can get the full story in a few different ways including these gorgeous, oversized, hardcovers!
