(W) David Hajdu In the years between World War II and the emergence of television as a mass medium, American popular culture as we know it was first created - in the pulpy, boldly illustrated pages of comic books. No sooner had this new culture emerged than it was beaten down by church groups, community bluestockings, and a McCarthyish Congress - only to resurface with a crooked smile on its face as MAD magazine. The story of the rise and fall of those comic books has never been fully told - until The Ten-Cent Plague. David Hajdu's remarkable book vividly opens up the lost world of comic books, its creativity, irreverence, and suspicion of authority. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

Hail to the Chin is the new raucous and sardonic memoir from Bruce Campbell, a follow-up to the bestselling If Chins Could Kill. It's been 15 years since his first memoir but Bruce is still living the dream as a 'B' movie king in an 'A' movie world. Bruce covers the professional and the personal with stories about his quickly canceled series Jack of All Trades, working on Sci-Fi Channel movies in Bulgaria and playing Santa Claus and Ronald Reagan as well as his move from Los Angeles to Oregon where he distills lavender and joins the local Elks club. And now in this updated paperback, Bruce shares brand new stories from his life since the hardcover's publication, including a requiem of Ash and details from his European book tour. With an introduction by New York Times bestselling author and famous minor television personality John Hodgman. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

In the Walking Dead universe, there is no greater villain than The Governor. The despot who runs the walled-off town of Woodbury, he has his own sick sense of justice: whether it's forcing prisoners to battle zombies in an arena for the townspeople's amusement, or chopping off the appendages of those who cross him. Now, for the first time, fans of The Walking Dead will discover how The Governor became the man he is, and what drove him to such extremes. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

by Michael Palin Michael Palin has kept a diary since the late 1960s, when he was newly married and beginning to make a name for himself as a TV scriptwriter. This volume of his diaries reveals how Python emerged and triumphed, how he, John Cleese, Graham Chapman, the two Terrys - Jones and Gilliam - and Eric Idle came together and changed the face of British comedy. Here too is his growing family, his home in a north London Victorian terrace, which grows as he buys the house next door and then a second at the bottom of the garden. Meanwhile Monty Python refuses to go away: the hugely successful movies (Holy Grail and The Life of Brian) that follow the series, the at-times extraordinary goings-on of the many powerful personalities who coalesced to form the Python team, the fight to prevent an American TV network from bleeping out the best jokes on U.S. transmission, and much more - all this makes for funny and riveting reading.
