(W) Warren Ellis (W/A) Mike Wolfer Combat Magician William Gravel is playing with powers far beyond his own in this second story arc of his ongoing series! The Major Seven gave Gravel a puzzle to solve, how does one of the royalty of magic in England get killed in a place where she cannot possibly die? Gravel only knows one way to solve puzzles - by shooting them, and then shooting anyone who complains. He doesn't know another way to do business, and that might just see him dead. How does one man affect a group who are more numerous and more deadly? Well, that's pretty much what the SAS was invented for! This issue is available with a regular or wraparound cover by Mike Wolfer. (immagine) Categoria: Comics

From BBC Video. This fantastic drama travels back in time to 1963 to see how the beloved Doctor Who was first brought to the screen. Actor William Hartnell felt trapped by a succession of hard-man roles. Wannabe producer Verity Lambert was frustrated by the TV industry's glass ceiling. Both of them were to find unlikely hope and unexpected challenges in the form of a Saturday tea-time drama, time travel and monsters! Allied with a team of brilliant people, they went on to create the longest-running science fiction series ever, Doctor Who, now celebrating its 50th anniversary. This Blu-Ray/DVD combo set also inlcudes 'An Unearthly Child,' the first Doctor Who serial, and the little-seen Doctor Who pilot. (immagine) Categoria: Video, Audio, Video games

FANTAGRAPHICS BOOKS

The definitive collection of comics and illustration from 1892 to 1942 by James Swinnerton, one of the founding fathers of the American comic strip. James Swinnerton is one of the most creative, respected, and prolific comic artists from the first half of the 20th century. Yet to the disappointment of classic comics lovers, his work has seen little reproduction. Until now. This sumptuous volume covers Swinnerton's six-decade career in comics, from his beginnings as a sports/editorial cartoonist for William Randolph Hearst in San Francisco to his years in the America's Southwest desert, where his love for the land and its people came through in his comics and illustration. Swinnerton is an excellent storyteller offering a cinematic style with humor that is both slapstick and sophisticated. At the forefront is his long-running Little Jimmy comic strip. This namesake character began by mixing satire of New York society with stories of rural America. He then took the characters on the road to South America, Mexico, and then settling for many years in Swinnerton's beloved Southwest. Also included in this book are his early one-shots and series like the rakish Mr. Jack and the anthropomorphic Mt. Ararat, and his 1940s stylized comic of the modern West, Rocky Mason. Swinnerton was famous for more than just comics. He wrote and illustrated the charming feature 'The Canyon Kiddies' and similar titles for weekly magazines. In his later years he became known as a premier painter of desert landscapes. All of these are featured in this book. Jimmy! includes an illustrated biography and essays by co-editor Michael Tisserand and Eddie Campbell. The comic strips in this volume are carefully restored to their original colors and printed at near-full size. Swinnerton lovers will be delighted by the richness and variety of the works seen here. Those new to this uniquely American artist will likely join the growing numbers who appreciate his important role in the history of the comics. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

THE 2nd 'ISSUE' OF ONE OF 2008'S MOST ACCLAIMED DEBUTS The acclaimed graphic novel anthology continues with sublife, Volume 2. Creator John Pham enlarges the scope and expands the style of his series with an all-new collection of stories and strips. 'The Kid' is a self-contained short story set in an eerily familiar post-apocalyptic future. Bloodthirsty marauders roam the blasted desert. A nomad and his dog, scavenging the road for gas and supplies, stumble upon a sealed bomb shelter, the contents of which will test whatever humanity he has left, as the marauders pursue him to a violent, frenetic climax. 'Deep Space' continues the atmospheric science fiction serial begun in Volume 1. In this episode, Captain Ho, Commander Wallach, and their newly adopted space-faring companion Deek attempt to harness the power of an alien crystal with the hopes of finding a way back home. But will their best-laid plans survive Captain's fragile mental state and impulse-prone behavior? In '221 Sycamore St,' teenage runaway Phineas accompanies his uncles on a training session with their dog Freya, but what they're training Freya to do illustrates the disturbing lengths to which his uncles will take their racist ideology. This chapter builds and expands upon the characters and themes established in the first volume, showcasing a vision of Los Angeles that is sometimes dark and fractured, inhabited by a quirky cast of characters. As if that were not enough, the artist includes various, stand-alone short strips including 'Socko Sarkissian,' a single-page gem about baseball's greatest fictional Armenian slugger, 'St. Ambrose,' a fractured memoir about the author's parochial school alma mater, and 'Mort,' a story that answers the burning question, what happens when a jealous blogger encounters his nemesis? sublife Volume 2 is filled to the brim with a dizzying variety of stories and styles, all of which surprisingly coalesce into a unified reading experience thanks to their shared themes and motifs, much like Chris Ware's annual ACME Novelty Library. Dogs, missed connections, ad hoc family units, desert landscapes are all elements that pop up and recur among the different stories. It makes each volume of sublife eminently readable on its own, and proves why Pham is among the most compelling new voices in comics today. (immagine) Categoria: Books: graphic novels

From Warren Ellis, the award-winning author, comics creator and popular columnist (and who is currently writing the screenplay for the film adaptation of the comics series GRAVEL, also published by Avatar Press), comes a collection of the most mind-bending columns you've ever read: DO ANYTHING. DO ANYTHING VOLUME ONE: JACK KIRBY RIPPED MY FLESH collects the first 26 chapters of Ellis' text masterpiece and is a grand tour through comics & culture as seen through a burgled robot head. The robot head of Jack Kirby lives on Warren Ellis' desk. It knows everything and is connected to everything. You must obey the robot head of Jack Kirby. There are many ways to look at comics. In this book, we see the medium through the hazy android eyes of Jack Kirby (actually the stolen and repurposed head of the missing Philip K Dick robot, which Mr. Ellis confesses to swiping off the back of a plane), taking a rattling ghost-train ride through the history of comics. David Bowie, the CIA, mad architects, Will Eisner, Frank Zappa, Tintin, the designer of Skylab, a train station in Paris, Arthur C. Clarke, the circus, the Black Panther Party and William S. Burroughs: all of these things are connected by Jack Kirby, all part of the secret history of comics, and all illustrating the special nature of the medium as the place where you can do anything. The continuing DO ANYTHING column, from which this book is derived, can be found every Tuesday at http://www.bleedingcool.com. (immagine) Categoria: Comics

Quarantine Studio wants to tickle your zombie tongue and feed you the rotted flesh you desire with Zombies Unleashed, a new line of original statues brought to you with the love and dedication a nice rotten corpse deserves! The series will include zombies from all walks of life, offering a delicate pastiche of the human form throughout the world and throughout the ages. We begin our line with Pigo the Clown, and Franklin. Pigo's greatest feat is his ability to keep his red nose attached as his face rots beneath. He's a swell clown, all things considered, and he would love to make your kids smile. Franklin appears unassuming enough, and even without arms, you can clearly see his charm- quite disarming, he is. Franklin is rooted in the roots of Zombie lore and it's connections with Voodoo and occult practices. Every Zombies Unleashed release rests atop a pile of cobweb draped skulls, and is fully painted, high quality cold cast porcelain in handsome collector box. Strictly limited and numbered editions. Don't miss out on these two handsome fellas, or your collection will be incomplete when the new dead rise! Each figure is 6 to 6/12 inches tall; designed and sculpted by William Paquet.
