by Michael Chabon The 2001 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, is the story of two ambitious young men; Sammy Clay, a New York City writer, and his cousin, Josef Kavalier, a refugee draftsman from Prague, brought to the States by the events of the Second World War. Arriving on his cousin's doorstep in 1939, the two embark on a friendship - and subsequent working relationship - sparked by the emerging concept of the comic book. Using narrative, flashbacks, and shifting perspectives, Chabon whisks us away on a journey spanning some 15 years, exploring themes of sexuality, loyalty, family, politics, and censorship, all while deftly sketching a picture of a rapidly-changing American society.

by 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

Jimmy cannot die. When the body he is occupying is killed, Jimmy's consciousness simply takes over the body of the living person in closest proximity to him. Simple, right? Not once Jimmy gets started. Because Jimmy is an insurance actuary. His mind is sharp and highly analytical, and he cares about nothing but his own survival and the survival of his adorable daughter. To avoid the shadowy government agency on his tail, Jimmy will do anything to protect his family, even if it means tearing the world down around them in the most mind-bogglingly complex and fiendishly clever way possible.

From New York Times-bestselling authors and illustrators Mike Mignola and Tom Sniegoski, come two thrilling anti-heroes: Grim Death and Bill the Electrocuted Criminal battling against crime. An uneasiness festers upon the city streets, threatening the peace and safety of law abiding citizens. A war is escalating, and it seems as though the good and righteous are being crushed beneath the unholy weight of evil's onslaught. A lone figure, clad in a slouch hat and clothes seemingly stitched from the blackest shadows, masked in the guise of a skull-faced death - a Grim Death - emerges with guns blazing. With him, a wronged ex-con clad in the striped costume of his misfortune - Bill the Electrocuted Criminal. In this beautifully illustrated 1930s Pulp-style novel, two dark new characters take to the street to fight the growing infection of organized crime. Grim Death and Bill the Electrocuted Criminal are not your average heroes, but they want justice. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

(W/A) Jon J. Muth, with John Kuramoto This adaptation of a Chinese folktale begins with a man's dissatisfaction with his life. Weary of being a stonecutter, he becomes many things in his quest for authority, each time finding that greater power lies elsewhere. Rooted in Taoist principles, Stonecutter is an exquisite tale about self-acceptance. Originally published in a small, limited edition fifteen years ago, Jon J. Muth republishes the story because 'Certain stories leave you with more than when they found you. They shed light on something, or unknot something for you, or offer some insight. At least they do for me. Stonecutter is one such story.' This inspiring tale pushes the boundaries and possibilities of graphic literature, and is now available for a new audience.

An illustrated novel from the acclaimed creator of Hellboy - with over 100 illustrations! Fifty years have passed since earthquakes and a rising sea level left Lower Manhattan submerged under more than thirty feet of water, so that its residents began to call it the 'Drowning City'. Among them are fourteen-year-old Molly McHugh and her friend and employer, Felix Orlov. Once upon a time, Orlov the conjuror was a celebrated stage magician, but now he is an old man; a psychic medium, contacting the spirits of the departed for the grieving loved ones left behind. When a s?ance goes horribly wrong, Felix Orlov is abducted by strange men wearing gas masks and rubber suits, and Molly finds herself on the run. Her flight leads her into the company of Simon Hodge, a Victorian detective, and his stalwart sidekick, Joe Golem, whose own past and true identity is a mystery to him.
