(W) Leo Tolstoy, Ben H. Winters Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters co-author Ben H. Winters is back with an all-new collaborator, legendary Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy, and the result is Android Karenina, an enhanced edition of the classic love story set in a dystopian world of robots, cyborgs, and interstellar space travel! As in the original novel, our story follows two relationships: The tragic adulterous love affair of Anna Karenina and Count Alexei Vronsky, and the more hopeful marriage of Nikolai Levin and Princess Kitty Shcherbatskaya. These characters live in a steampunk-inspired world of robitic butlers, clumsy automatons, and rudimentary mechanical devices. But when these copper-plated machines begin to revolt against their human masters, our characters must fight back using state-of-the-art 19th century technology and a sleek new model of ultra-human cyborgs like nothing the world has ever seen!

Kim Smith's adorable illustrations give a classic feel to this modern holiday tale. Featuring all of the iconic moments and laugh-out-loud lines from the film, this story of infectious Christmas spirit in the face of cynicism is a must-have for Elf fans of all ages.

Surrealist icon Salvador Dali and iconoclast comedians The Marx Brothers planned a never-made film that merged their sensibilities in a sublime mashup of absurdity, surrealism, slapstick, and wit. But the original screenplay was lost... until now. Rejected by MGM studios, the script was thought lost forever. But author Josh Frank found it, and with comedian and writer Tim Heidecker and Spanish artist and comics creator Manuela Pertega, he's recreated the film that Dali and the Marx Brothers would have made as a graphic novel that presents the story in all its full-color, fully cinematic, fully surreal glory. A remarkable plural marriage of art, absurdity, biography, and comedy, Giraffes on Horseback Salad is a cinematic, comedic, and literary experience like no other.
