Virgin Comics and Deepak Chopra present the story of Saraswati, she of the white swan, daughter of Brahma and the wise but temperamental goddess of wisdom and learning. In an ancient age ridiculed by his wife for his lack of intellectual finesse, a young man named Kalidasa embarks on a quest to achieve enlightenment. His prayers are answered as Saraswati blesses him with the wisdom of sages and prophesizes his destiny to be the greatest of all poets, yet lost in his youthful enthusiasm the young poet hastily composes a hymn in honor of the goddess marveling at not only her wisdom and prowess, but also her ethereal beauty. Miffed at this seeming affront the goddess puts a curse on Kalidasa that he shall lose his glib tongue in the holy city of Varansi (immagine) Categoria: Comics

Harker, head of the '68,' is pleased with the arrangement he's made with Jess, and is determined to end the cycle of reincarnation he faces by helping her kill those he is meant to lead - even if that means destroying The Faithful, the secret society within the '68' created to protect its members from any harm. As the blood count rises, Jess finds herself amidst a labyrinth of duplicity. Between The Faithful, Harker, and those closest to Jess, who can she trust, and who will pay the price of the Snake Woman's blood bath? (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

A ganja-fueled road trip through the desert turns deadly in this shocking horror tale. On one last bender with his best friend on the eve of his wedding, Rishi crashes into and kills an old mystic known as a Kapalik.

It's a perfect cover-up, except for the fact that you can destroy a Kapalik's physical body, but his soul forever lingers...and in this case seeks bloody revenge. (immagine) Categoria: Comics
