 |
| FIRE ON THE WATER GN With immigration and workers’ rights dominating the news cycle, this story is an important reminder of the essential role of immigrants in the history of the United States. As historical fiction, Fire on the Water sheds light not only on one of America’s earliest man-made ecological disasters but also on racism and the economic disparity between classes in the Midwest at the turn of the century. This original graphic novel features an introduction by Paul Buhle (The Art of Harvey Kurtzman), author, biographer, and former senior lecturer at Brown University, has received acclaim from New York Times bestselling author Derf Backderf, and earned a place on the Boston Globe‘s Best Books of 2017 list. |

| MONSTROUS WOMEN IN COMICS Monsters seem to be everywhere these days, in popular shows on television, in award-winning novels, and again and again in Hollywood blockbusters. They are figures that lurk in the margins and so, by contrast, help to illuminate the center-the embodiment of abnormality that summons the definition of normalcy by virtue of everything they are not. Samantha Langsdale and Elizabeth Rae Coody’s edited volume explores the coding of woman as monstrous and how the monster as dangerously evocative of women/femininity/the female is exacerbated by the intersection of gender with sexuality, race, nationality, and disability. |

| DOOMSDAY CLOCK VOL 2 WITH SLIPCASE The fate of the DC Universe is decided in a confrontation between Superman and Dr. Manhattan in this concluding hardcover collecting Doomsday Clock #7-12! With the Earth teetering on the brink of an international super-war, Black Adam and his followers make their move! And while our heroes are busy elsewhere, Dr. Manhattan has set his endgame into motion. The Doomsday Clock continues to tick toward midnight with the fate of the Multiverse hanging in the balance. Doomsday Clock Part 2 ships in a free slipcase with enough space for Doomsday Clock Part 1-a comics shop exclusive! |

| AMAZING FANTASY OMNIBUS At the dawn of the Silver Age, Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko – three of comics’ greatest talents – had readers crying, “Make mine monsters,” with a cadre of ten-ton terrors, from Torr to Manoo to the one and only Monsteroso! Backed up by weird tales of witchcraft, Martians and occult master Dr. Druid, it seemed that these titanic tales could never be topped. And then Lee and Ditko did just that, seamlessly transitioning into an all-new approach featuring aliens, time travel, ghosts and atomic nightmares! With lushly illustrated stories, Ditko set a new standard for comic art, and Lee raised the bar ever higher with his scintillating scripts. And, oh, in the last issue they created some guy named Spider-Man. Experience a lynchpin series in Marvel history! Collecting AMAZING ADVENTURES (1961) #1-6, AMAZING ADULT FANTASY #7-14 and AMAZING FANTASY (1962) #15. |
