Throughout human history, dogs have performed service tasks for us. Some of the earliest documented cases occurred during the First World War, when, in the U.K. and Germany, guide dogs helped people with disabilities live fuller lives. In 1989 doctors discovered that a dog's nose, which harbors roughly 300 million sensors, could detect cancer cells with greater accuracy than lab tests, and scientists began to train service dogs to perform all manner of medical alerts by scent. Do Not Pet: A Service Dog's Graphic Tail follows the story of one such service dog, Ruby, who gave the author Joe Biel mobility, health, and companionship through the most difficult years of his life. This comic details their personal struggles with public awareness and accommodation and celebrates their remarkable interspecies bond. Topics include: the responsibilities and pitfalls of training a service dog, how to behave around service dogs in public, the difficulties of international travel, the history of working dogs in countries outside the U.S., the laws and regulations of various countries, and much more!

'The Prince & the Birch Tree' is the first comic in the 15-part Seeds of Spring series. Naguset begins to learn the origin of her nickname, which means birch tree. She remembers her mother, who died when she was a child, bonds with her sister, and begins to read Kropotkin's biography, in which his family life parallels her own experience. In this innovative serial graphic novel, Naguset, a modern Canadian Mi'kmaq teenager, exchanges books and mix tapes with her pen pal, Chris. Her imagination sparks when he sends her a biography of the 19th century Russian anarchist Peter Kropotkin. The story juxtaposes Naguset's personal and political coming-of-age in her loving family home with Kropotkin's rocky upbringing in a princely palace. These two stories of eventful lives and bold hearts are interwoven with Kropotkin's theories of freedom, Mi'kmaq vocabulary and social history, and an uplifting punk soundtrack, creating a unique reading experience bound to inspire readers to think in new ways about the issues of our time.

It's the moment the world has been waiting for: the return of everyone's favorite musclebound punk/metal romantic odd couple, Henry and Glenn. Over the course of three short stories, our metaldude heroes love, fight, hang out at the spa with Lars and James, squabble about property values with friendly satanist neighbors Hall and Oates, and work out their differences in therapy. It's hardcore. It's hilarious. It's a true testament to the power of love to overcome even the biggest, manliest egos of our time. (immagine) Categoria: Comics

Everyone's favorite aging punk odd couple lights up the page once more in the first all-new Henry & Glenn floppy comic in a decade. Inside you'll find 'I Don't Want to be Buried,' the first chapter of a brand new story written and drawn by Tom Neely. Our squabbling, loving heroes have adopted a new cat they named Iggy. Iggy and Henry become best friends, but Glenn has a lot of trouble connecting with the new kitty. Also, Henry gets cast in a new movie directed by Jon Twaters; so Glenn gets left home alone with Iggy… and it does not go well! You'll also find a retrospective of Henry & Glenn lore and collectibles, and a comic short True Tale of Henry & Glenn featuring the time Tom sat on a plane next to the drummer for Samhain. Plus a cameo from Henry and Glenn's neighbors Daryl and John and some spicy new pin-ups, including a back cover pin-up by Justin Hall! (immagine) Categoria: Comics
