In 1993, Scott McCloud tore down the wall between high and low culture with the acclaimed international hit Understanding Comics, a massive comic book that explored the inner workings of the world's most misunderstood art form. Now, McCloud takes comics to the next level, charting twelve different revolutions in how comics are created, read, and perceived today, and how they're poised to conquer the new millennium. McCloud explores the life of comics as an art form and as literature and the volatile and shifting public perceptions of comics. McCloud Also paints a breathtaking picture of comics' digital revolutions. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

(W) Neil Gaiman The author's preferred text is presented in this 10th Anniversary Edition of the New York Times-bestselling tour-de-force that USA Today called 'a powerful, searing force that makes readers confront what is real and what is not.' Shadow is a man with a past. But now he wants nothing more than to live a quiet life with his wife and stay out of trouble. Until he learns that she's been killed in a terrible accident. Flying home for the funeral, as a violent storm rocks the plane, a strange man in the seat next to him introduces himself. The man calls himself Mr. Wednesday, and he knows more about Shadow than is possible. He warns Shadow that a far bigger storm is coming. And from that moment on, nothing will ever be the same.

(W) Kris Wilson (A) Matt Melvin Cyanide and Happiness is the first-ever collection of the #1 comic on the Web. With 30 never-before-seen comics and appearances from fan-favorite characters like Seizure Man, SuperJerk, Captain Obvious, Prostate Man, and Obese Maurice, Cyanide and Happiness is a must-own for fans of the irreverent, hilarious cult comic from Explosm.net. The comic's crudely drawn figures and the wildly inappropriate topics they cover - including cannibalism, murder, and incest - is reminiscent of South Park but with a profane sensibility all its own.

(W) Neil Gaiman, Al Sarrantonio Literature is considered to fall in two major categories: mainstream fiction, and all the rest, commonly known as 'genre.' This second category has always been considered inferior. But the barrier between 'genre' and 'mainstream' fiction is an artificial one, contends Neil Gaiman. Stories is a groundbreaking anthology that will expand and redefine the limits of imaginative fiction and afford some of the best writers in the world the opportunity to work together and defend their craft.

SYNOPSIS: In this full-color, contemporary graphic novel for fans of Raina Telgemeier and Gene Luen Yang, a twelve-year-old kid from Washington Heights starts his seventh-grade year at a new posh private school, where diversity is low and the struggle to fit in is real. Seventh grader Jordan Banks loves nothing more than drawing cartoons about his life. But instead of sending him to the art school of his dreams, his parents enroll him in a prestigious private school known for its academics, where Jordan is one of the few kids of color in his entire grade. As he makes the daily trip from his Washington Heights apartment to the upscale Riverdale Academy Day School, Jordan soon finds himself torn between two worlds-and not really fitting into either one. Can Jordan learn to navigate his new school culture while keeping his neighborhood friends and staying true to himself? (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
