POLARIS

If you mention the word 'super-hero' these days, everyone and their mum can tell you a potted history of it all, because they've sat through numerous phases, extended TV series, and animated side-specials of expansive character-development, culminating in extraordinary final chapters, with the screen literally stacked full of characters battling one another while your eyes bleed with excitement and spectacle. But before 1997, people would generally only think of a few things: Christopher Reeve, Michael Keaton, Nicholas Hammond's Spider-Man, Bill Bixby trying not to get angry, Dolph Lundgren mumbling in broken English, and how Michael Crawford dressed like a bird was the closest thing Disney had to a cinematic universe. By 1997 there could be no doubt that the genre was dead. Out was the sheen of verisimilitude, and in were Bat-credit-cards, ugly CGI, slashed budgets, rubber nipples and Martin Sheen in a girdle. So, whatever happened to the heroes? Join John Rain as he walks through every film of note from 1978 to 1997, and examines just what went wrong, and how.

On a train in the London Underground, a young couple is terrorized by a demon. In a suburb, a poltergeist forces a family to flee their home. Hellboy has his hands full. While the supernatural is on a rampage in London, a series of brutal 'Torso Murders' turns up at various sites around the city. All of the corpses are headless, limbless, and drained of their blood.

Hellboy descends into the dark underworld of London, encountering demons who prophesy the coming of plague and the opening of an Eye to the otherworld, bringing forth death and destruction upon the land.

JOHN WILEY & SONS

(E) William Irwin, (E) Mark D. White Alan Moore's Watchmen is set in 1985 and chronicles the alternative history of the United States where the US edges dangerously closer to nuclear war with the Soviet Union. Within this world exists a group of crime busters, who don elaborate costumes to conceal their identity and fight crime, and an intricate plot to kill and discredit these 'superheroes.' Alan Moore's Watchmen popularized the graphic novel format, has been named one of TIME magazine's top 100 novels, and is now being made into a highly anticipated movie adaptation. This latest book in the popular Blackwell Philosophy and Pop Culture series peers into Moore's deeply philosophical work to parse and deconstruct the ethical issues raised by Watchmen's costumed adventurers, their actions, and their world.

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.
