Money, women, power, and rebelling against the golden years. These are some of the perilous and alluring patterns that weave their way through Crazy for You. In this double feature of love and obsession, two short stories by the acclaimed writer Paul Theroux are adapted by veteran cartoonist Steve Lafler. ?Minor Watt? is a high society satire lampooning the perverse relationship between art and the art market ? and what happens when the joy of owning is outstripped by the thrill of destroying. ?Siamese Nights? is a tale of infidelity, infatuation, and exoticism, blending into an intoxicating, midlife crisis siren song. Little choices and self-betrayals build until a quiet leitmotif rolls into a shattering crescendo. Lafler's bold and expressive style effortlessly captures the pulp exuberance adorning Theroux?s stories and the profound vulnerability underlying his characters. Crazy for You will stop you in your tracks right before it bowls you over.

BUFF SOUL HC

How do you prevent history from repeating itself, and is it possible to protect the one you love from themselves? When cartoonist Moa Romanova joins her rock star bestie on a U.S. tour, life quickly turns chaotic, as adolescent trauma begins to haunt her. Buff Soul tackles addiction, friendship, and loss in a rollicking road trip adventure involving selling speed, breaking bones, massive hangovers, drug withdrawal, having your entire fist inside your best friend, and shooting guns in the desert. What begins as an insanely comical, hedonistic road trip in the spirit of Pineapple Express, takes a dark turn when her best friend disappears. This event triggers memories of an adolescent trauma she had yet to reckon with, leading Romanova to confront the reality of how far she?s let her self destruction go.

CABBIE HC DEFINITIVE EDITION

Coupling the grand guignol morality of Paul Schrader and Martin Scorsese?s Taxi Driver with the squashed black-and-white perspectives and grotesque human physiognomy (and humanity) that defines Chester Gould?s Dick Tracy, Mart??s The Cabbie (starring the eponymous ?hero? known only as the Cabbie) was first published in installments in 1980s Spain, a product of a life lived under, and coming out of, Franco?s fascist dictatorship.In Volume One (initially published in 2011), the Cabbie?s father?s coffin is stolen in an act of vengeance for the Cabbie?s vigilantism ? right after his mother tells him his inheritance is inside! Cabbie takes to the mean streets in a quest to find it. In Volumes Two and Three (both never before available in English), Cabbie runs the gauntlet of mad science, dog races where the dogs chase humans, evil millionaires, presidents, and popes in addition to every nightmare scenario imaginable. Ultra violent, ultra profane, and ultra vicious, The Cabbie is filled with scummy noir characters exaggerated to the absolute limit ? and the worst of them all might be the titular Cabbie, precisely because, not unlike Travis Bickle, he sees himself as a force for good.There have been various incomplete English editions over the last four decades, but this is the definitive Cabbie saga published in English for the first time, complete with ?extras,? including a cover gallery!

SPAWN OF VENUS AND OTHER STORIES HC

This mouth-watering collection features the finest (and rarest!) science fiction stories Wallace Wood ever drew ? more than two dozen! Wood?s meticulously detailed, genre-defining brushwork introduces you to breathtaking planetary vistas, terrifying aliens, and sleek rocket ships surging with the power to conquer the stars.Our title story is a rarity that never appeared in any EC comic. Writtenand drawn for a 3-D comic that was canceled before it could be printed, we present it here in easy-on-the-eyes 2-D. Then, Wood?s most iconic story, ?My World? is a stunning showcase of the preternatural talent and technique he brought to all his stories. Also included are his trilogy of Ray Bradbury adaptations ? ?Home to Stay,? ?There Will Come Soft Rains?? and ?Mars Is Heaven!? ? plus ?He Walked Among Us,? a ?what if??? variation on Bradbury?s ?The Man? from The Illustrated Man.But that?s not all! An incredible science fiction bonus: Al Feldstein wrote many stories of people reaching from the beyond to right a wrong, but with this volume, in a twist worthy of the best of EC, he does the same himself! In 1955, the Comics Code rejected the second page of ?You, Rocket? and forced EC to completely rewrite and redraw it. When the original art for that rejected page was rediscovered, one panel was missing. But Feldstein, in a middle-finger gesture to the Code and its heavy-handed censorship, wrote a new panel, restoring ?You, Rocket? to what it was always meant to be. Sadly, he passed away before his final EC writing assignment was published. But here it is now, for the first time anywhere. Justice from beyond the grave.26 stories in all, most scripted by EC legend Al Feldstein, plus in-depth commentary by EC experts Thommy Burns, Grant Geissman, and Jon Gothold. TheSpawn Of Venus And Other Stories is the ultimate EC Wallace Wood science fiction collection.
