In the graphic novel series adaptation Stephen King's The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger, creatively overseen by Stephen King himself, the full story of Roland's troubled past and ongoing saga is revealed. The barony of Gilead has finally fallen to the forces of the evil John Farson, and the surviving young gunslingers were massacred at the decisive Battle of Jericho Hill. But one has risen from the ashes: Roland Deschain. Now as the last of the gunslingers, Roland sets out in search of the mysterious Dark Tower, the one place where he can set the events of his out-of-sync world right again. Along the way, Roland will battle forces from his worst nightmares as he trails the elusive Man in Black, the inhuman sorcerer who holds the key to Roland's desperate search.

Taking place directly following the shocking events seen in The Gunslinger Born, Roland along with Cuthbert Allgood and Alain Johns must flee for their lives from the town of Hambry, with a murderous posse close behind and the road ahead to Gilead and home fraught with peril. But Roland cannot resist the lure of their stolen prize - the enchanted seeing sphere nicknamed 'Maerlyn's Grapefruit' - and finds his consciousness trapped inside this mystical orb, where many important secrets lie in wait, their revelations heralding death or worse. And while Roland's ka-tet is absorbed in its own drama, something is emerging from the desolate place known as the Dogan, as a long-slumbering spirit that portends great evil has awakened once more.

Experience a surreal descent into one man's psychosis in this haunting and chilling graphic novel from Jeff Lemire, the New York Times-bestselling author of Roughneck and Sweet Tooth. A man wakes up alone in a strange room with no recollection of who he is or how he got there. The padlocked doors and barren lobby reinforce the strangeness of this place. This is, as he reads from an old-fashioned keychain beside his bed, the Edgewater Hotel. Even worse, something ominous seems to be lurking in one of the rooms. But when he meets a young companion-the only other soul in this vast, enveloping emptiness-his new friend begs him not to unlock the door. There must be something behind it…but what?

Joel Kupperman became one of the most famous children in America during World War II as one of the young geniuses on the series Quiz Kids. With the uncanny ability to perform complex math problems in his head, Joel endeared himself to audiences across the country and became a national obsession. Following a childhood spent in the public eye, only to then fall victim to the same public's derision, Joel deliberately spent the remainder of his life removed from the world at large. With wit and heart, Michael Kupperman presents a fascinating account of mid-century radio and early television history, the pro-Jewish propaganda entertainment used to counteract anti-Semitism, and the early age of modern celebrity culture.

With his masterful illustration style, bestselling French creator-storyteller Chabouté (Alone, Moby-Dick) explores community through an everyday, often ignored, object: the common park bench. From its creation, to its witness to the fresh ardor of lovers, the drudgery of businessmen, the various hopes of the many who enter its orbit, the park bench weathers all seasons. Strangers meet at it for the first time. Paramours carve their initials into it. Old friends sit and chat on it for hours. Others ignore the bench, or (attempt to) sleep on it at night, or simply anchor themselves on it and absorb the ebb and flow of the area and its people. This could be a bench in my hometown or yours - the people in this little drama are very much those we already recognize. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

The evil deceptions woven by the merciless, mesmerizing power of the mystical seeing sphere known as 'Maerlyn's Grapefruit' warped Roland Deschain of Gilead's sense of reality, causing him to unintentionally commit a shocking and unforgivable crime-one that may surely earn him a swift journey to the gallows. But what has happened to Roland is only a taste of the bitter fate for all of Mid-World's noblest defenders, as the violent insanity and destructive scheming of the monstrous 'Good Man' John Farson and the inhuman Marten Broadcloak finally culminate in an all-out assault on the city of Gilead itself.

Evocatively wrought and gorgeously illustrated, Other People collects Days of the Bagnold Summer and Driving Short Distances, first published in the UK to wide acclaim. In Bagnold Summer, a teenager spends a long summer with his mother, much to his disappointment. Capturing the dynamics of family and growing up, Winterhart captures the ennui, pathos, and affection of the mother-son relationship. In Driving Short Distances, Sam needs a job and purpose, so begins a apprenticeship of sorts in the passenger side of Keith's car. As Sam learns something about the self-styled big-man Keith, and the humility of everyday living, Winterhat's pen turns ordinary life into a tableau poignant and comedic.

Anjeline walks with an open heart, but alone, through a world that consistently rejects her; Franck, another loner, never smiles.
