Three years after the publication of the groundbreaking Asian American comics anthology Secret Identities, the team returns with a new volume-bigger, bolder, and more breathtaking in scope. This new book expands its horizon to include edgier genres, from hard-boiled pulp to horror, adventure, fantasy, and science fiction. Using this darker range of hues, it seeks to subvert and shatter the hidebound stereotypes that have obscured the Asian image since the earliest days of immigration: the stoic brute, the prodigious brain, the exotic temptress, the inscrutable alien, the devious manipulator. Shattered's 35 stories incorporate thrills, chills, and delight while exposing the hidden issues and vital truths of the nation's fastest-growing and most dynamic community, and features a cover by DC Comics' superstar Cliff Chiang!

Since its first publication in the 1990s, Lies My Teacher Told Me has become one of the most important and successful-and beloved-history books of our time. Nate Powell-the first cartoonist ever to win a National Book Award-has adapted Loewen's classic work into a graphic edition that perfectly captures both Loewen's text and the irreverent spirit of his work. Eye-popping illustrations bring to life the true history chronicled in Lies My Teacher Told Me, and ample text boxes and callouts ensure nothing is lost in translation. The book is perfect for those making their first foray past the shroud of history textbooks, and it will also be beloved by those who had their worldviews changed by the original.

It started with a visit from spirits. In 1991, Joseph Kony, the leader of a Ugandan rebel group known as the Lord's Resistance Army, claimed that spiritual beings had come to him, instructing him to lead brutal raids against civilians supporting the Ugandan government. For all the horror and condemnation his brutality has aroused around the world, Joseph Kony still survives. Army of God tells the rest of the story, from the chaos Kony has left behind to the long campaign to defeat him for good. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror
