(W) Alan Moore, Tim Perkins (A) Eddie Campbell Two of Alan Moore's performance pieces are adapted by comics by his From Hell collaborator Eddie Campbell. The Birth Caul is a shamanism of childhood, a journey from the present to the past, back into the womb and beyond. The magical creation theory story of love, death and resurrection Snakes and Ladders entwines the disinterment of Oliver Cromwell and Elizabeth Siddell, the visionary nature of Arthur Machen's experiences after the death of his wife, and Moore's magical traveler John Constantine.

by Brian Bolland This collection of short strips takes readers away from the guns and testosterone, and into a world of wit and whimsy exclusively Bolland's own. Includes a new 20-page The Actress and The Bishop story, along with their other classic adventures, set in a strange suburban idyll. Mr. Mamoulian is Bolland's alter ego; an observer of life in a state of constant bemusement. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

1814, near the little village of Hartlepool England, a war-ship in the Napoleonic fleet sinks. Amid the wreckage, fishermen discover a survivor: a monkey dressed in full military regalia, the mascot of the shipwrecked French vessel. The people of Hartlepool despised all Frenchmen and, though they have never seen a Frenchmen - or a monkey for that matter, the ape unfortunatly found himself court martialled. Inspired by the famous legend of the Hartlepool monkey, this is a tragi-comic fable of war and jingoism, of xenophobia and ignorance and of the glimmering of enlightenment.

The front door of Shuna's family home acted as a gateway to Bangladesh. Nothing haram passed through this door, this was a devout house. When Shuna walked through this door, she switched her rebellious face to her pious face, which eagerly absorbed the teaching of the Prophet, striving to be a good Muslim girl. The switching between these two faces became increasingly difficult as they grew further and further apart, and when she accepted a marriage proposal by David, a non-Muslim, the secret life she led became impossible to ignore.

Gilbert Shelton created the multi-million selling Freak Brothers and Fat Freddy's Cat. Wonder Wart-Hog was his earliest creation, dating from 1962 and still appearing in Zap Comix to this day. Possibly his favorite, the character has appeared over the years in publications varying from Bacchanal, Help, Drag Cartoons, to underground comics such as H-Bomb Funnies, Feds 'n' Heads and Rip Off Comix as well as in several long comic stories of his own, including The Nurds of November and Battle of the Titans.

(W/A) Gilbert Shelton Fat Freddy's Cat began life as a footnote strip to the Freak Brothers and later appeared in many comics of his own. The never-ending army of roaches out for world domination drive him to distraction, as does Fat Freddy's failure to feed him or empty his kitty litter box. This cat has traveled to Mexico, saved the world from alien invasion, and worked as a government agent in Washington trying to save the world from the 'hee hee hee' drug. Collected in one massive volume, Fat Freddy's Cat will appeal to the sarcastic cat-lover in all of us. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

by Grant Morrison, Tom DeHaven & Rian Hughes Rian Hughes, acclaimed as an illustrator and designer, collects some of his groundbreaking comics artwork in this remarkable collection. Writer Grant Morrison reworks of the classic British comics character, Dan Dare, set in a mass unemployment 1980's in which Dare is no longer sure of his place in the England around him. 'Science Service,' co-written with John Freeman, allows Hughes full rein for his retro style. For Raymond Chandler's 'Goldfish', adapted by Tom DeHaven, he captures the noir shadows in a clever use of 2-color artwork. Also in the book are 'Really & Truly,' also by Grant Morrison, from 2000 AD, and a selection of sketchbook pages. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

These are the first beats of the Beatles' career as only legendary rock cartoonist Mauri Kunnas could tell them. The cover depicts John, Paul, George, and Ringo crossing the street Abbey Road style, but the street's in Hamburg's seedy Reeperbahn red-light district, and the flip cover adds lost Beatles Pete Best and Stu Sutcliffe to the mix. Kunnas chronicles the band from Ringo's birth (against a backdrop of the Luftwaffe shelling Liverpool) through the release of their hit, 'Please Please Me'/'Ask Me Why.' Focusing on the band's pre-fame days in a sly and irreverent style (and not shying away from Brian Epstein's fixation upon John), Kunnas makes liberal use of corny in-jokes and hokey wordplay, but it's all done in good fun.
