A lifelong Cleveland resident, Harvey Pekar (1939-2010) pioneered autobiographical comics, mining the mundane for magic since 1976 in his ongoing American Splendor series. Harvey Pekar's Cleveland is sadly one of his last, but happily one of his most definitive graphic novels. It combines classic American Splendor-ous autobiographical anecdotes with key moments and characters in the city's history as relayed to us by Our Man and meticulously researched and rendered by artist Joseph Remnant. With an introduction by Alan Moore to boot! (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

(W/A) Ray Friesen So what is this book about? It's about a Pirate Penguin named Pirate Penguin and a Ninja Chicken who isn't. They are the bestest of friends and also the worstest of enemies all at the same time. There are about a bajillion jokes inside this book, and it's filled with action, adventure and arguments. Sometimes the stories are really teeny, about stuff like ice cream or origami, and sometimes the story gets really epic-tastic, filled with spaceships and giant monsters and evil koalas and stuff.

(W) Robert Venditti (A) Brett Weldele In a dark downtown alley in Central Georgia Metropolis, a juvenile prank goes too far and a homeless man is killed. When the ensuing investigation reveals that the attackers aren't who they appeared to be, justice depends on the testimony of a single witness, a street snitch with a history of providing information to a uniformed cop named Harvey Greer. Harvey is placed on special assignment to track down the informant, but others have their own designs, including a wealthy socialite and an ex-con turned religious leader known to his followers as The Prophet. As days pass and anger among the anti-surrogate population grows, the city stands on a razor's edge. Will punishment be exacted in a courtroom or on the streets? This sci-fi/noir police thriller is a prequel that sheds new light on the characters and events of The Surrogates, soon to be a major motion picture from Touchstone Pictures starring Bruce Willis.

In the grim cold of February surfaces a thrilling new League of Extraordinary Gentlemen book - Nemo: Heart of Ice, a full-color 48-page adventure in the classic pulp tradition by the inestimable Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill. It's 1925, fifteen long years since Janni Dakkar first tried to escape the legacy of her dying science-pirate father, only to accept her destiny as the new Nemo, captain of the legendary Nautilus. Now, tired of her unending spree of plunder and destruction, Janni launches a grand expedition to surpass her father's greatest failure: the exploration of Antarctica. Hot on her frozen trail are a trio of genius inventors, hired by the megalomaniacal Charles Foster Kane to retrieve the plundered valuables of an African queen. It's a deadly race to the bottom of the world - an uncharted land of wonder and horror where time is broken and the mountains bring madness. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

(W/A) Jeffrey Brown Some creators cannot be pigeonholed, with each new work being completely unlike the last. Jeffrey Brown is one such creator. From autobiographical memoirs to gag cartoons to 1980's kitsch-nostalgia, each new work takes readers into worlds never seen before. AEIOU completes Brown's most famous work, the 'Girlfriend Trilogy,' where he explores the subtle difference between knowing someone and loving that someone. Sulk! collects some of Brown's experimental comics, mixing fantasy, science-fiction, and realistic fiction in unequal measures. The Incredible Change-Bots is both a parody of classic 1980's transforming robot cartoons, as well as a meditation on the nature of nostalgia, while not skimping on robot-on-robot epic battle action! Finally, for anyone who needs some comic reading that's quick, there's I Am Going To Be Small, Brown's collection of hilarious gag cartoons. Each book features Brown's trademark expressive artwork, while being completely new and different. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels
