A fun introduction in comics to deep thinking and the history of Philosophy! What is Thinking? And how does our thinking set us apart from other animals? Now that we're thinking, what is Reality? Is there an objective reality or are there numerous subjective realities? And do we move in it with a free will or is everything predestined? Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Erasmus, Descartes, Spinoza, Nietzsche: just a few philosophers who have pondered these questions. Comic artist Margreet de Heer and her husband Yiri travel through the history of Western Philosophy and draw a colorful picture of all these questions. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

In the first title story, the supremely talented (especially with women) and outrageous Carlos Nine gives us the complete low-down on the sexy and dangerous killer Alexandra that the young Dungeon-keeper fell for so heavily. In the second, Killoffer ('676 Apparitions of Killoffer') also focuses on a spicy girl, daughter of a prominent character. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

Part graphic novel travelog, part tongue-in-cheek travel guide, here are the adventures of caustic cartoonist Rall in the wild and wooly central Asian countries, a powder keg sitting on tomorrow's oil... Combines articles with comics chapters relating his experiences retracing the old legendary Silk Road starting with the sublime history of China and ending in the absurdity of the petty dictatorships of the 'The 'Stans' where Rall had the temerity to go back, including once with a group of listeners to his radio show, on a dare. It's exotic adventure, satire and a fun way to find out more about a part of the world that looms in importance with its immense reserves of oil. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

For some he was the philosopher of existentialism. For others the constant provocateur, the politically engaged author, the uncertain militant, the repenting bourgeois, the life companion of Simone de Beauvoir. From his first readings in the Luxembourg Garden to his refusal of the Nobel Prize for Literature, Jean Paul Sartre was all of this at the same time. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

by Dirk Schwieger An ex-pat in Japan experiences all things Japanese as ordered online! Dirk lived in Tokyo, had a comics blog where he had people dare him to try all sorts of different things - exotic, disgusting, revealing, whatever! - in this land of the Rising Sun, and then relate it with funky humor on the blog. The result is quite a fascinating inside look at the Japanese society, how they live, how they think, what they eat. Moresukine is the Japanese way of pronouncing 'Moleskin,' as these comics were created on one. This graphic novel comes designed exactly like a Moleskin - black cover, rounded edges, ribbon page mark. 'What a fun idea,' said Neil Gaiman, and other artists also contribute with their take on this adventure including James Kochalka and Ryan North. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

There's excitement in the Zombillenium horror themed park run by actual monsters. Brought in by Behemoth himself, the vampire Beauford Jaggar Carniegie III is officially supposed to help CEO Francis in managing the park. If one looks more closely, the reasons for his coming may seem less anodyne than announced. Of course, his mission is to increase return on investment for the shareholders, but for Behemoth that return has to be in souls. Francis is appalled but obligated to kowtow to the almighty consultant, determined to take power and pervert the rules of Zombillenium. Meanwhile, Aurelian goes through a bad patch. Depressed by his immortal status and the absurdity of his life... sorry, his death, he's burned out. And burnout, in a powerful demon, can be devastating. Held back in extremis by Gretchen, he avoids the worst. This is timely, because Gretchen has a plan for him! (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

The life of the great French painter, one of the founders of Impressionism, is narrated in lush comic art reminiscent of his style. From the Salon des Refuses ('Salon of the Rejected') and many struggling years without recognition, money and yet a family to raise, all the way to great success, critically and financially, Monet pursued insistently one vision: catching the light in painting, refusing to compromise on this ethereal pursuit. It cost him dearly but he was a beacon for his contemporaries. We discover in this comics biography how he came to this vision as well as his turbulent life pursuing it.
