SUICIDAL TENDENCIES INFECTIOUS GROOVES

ROCK & ROLL BIOGRAPHIES SUICIDAL TENDENCIES INFECTIOUS GROOV

Enjoy this cool flip book featuring two iconic California bands formed by the legendary Mike Muir! Suicidal Tendencies was formed in 1980 as a punk band in Venice, California. Originally only intended as a 'party band,' Suicidal Tendencies grew in notoriety. Suicidal Tendencies had a rough start, including being voted 'Worst Band/Biggest Assholes' in 1982 but the following year were voted 'Best New Band.' In 2000 Mike Muir eventually became interested in the funk music that Robert Trujillo had brought to the table. As a result, the two formed a funk metal side project in the vein of early Red Hot Chili Peppers called Infectious Grooves. Recruiting drummer Stephen Perkins and guitarist Adam Slagel, this helped expand Suicidal Tendencies' fan base into a wider audience that included members of the alternative rock community.

POPEYE MAN OVERBOARD GN

Visually stunning and poetic - the story of Popeye before he became Popeye! Everyone knows him: the loud-mouthed, one-eyed sailor man who shows off his biceps after gobbling canned spinach. He's funny, Popeye. His way of speaking, and his ready-made expressions… And what's more, he's a courageous guy, a good guy. A true hero. But this isn't exactly the Popeye you know. In this graphic novel there are other layers. A melancholy and beauty that only the exuberant watercolor art of Lelis and the sharp, sensitive script of Antoine Ozanam could express. Unlike the famous cartoons, the Popeye of this tale is an unlikely hero who could be found in any port around the world. In the story, a strange girl with flowery language arrives to hit him in his healthy eye. He's too old for her, but Olive is his girl, without a doubt. Like any man in love, reason disappears, and Popeye agrees to go on an adventure with Olive's brother...in search of a fabulous treasure. ABLAZE is proud to bring this acclaimed work of French writer Ozanam and multi-award-winning Brazilian artist Lelis to English readers worldwide. A brilliant reinterpretation of the origin of the character. And a magnificent adventure story!

ALL PRINCESSES DIE BEFORE DAWN GN

Three love stories, from budding desire to fading passion, play out within one family on a late summer's day-a day that will change all their lives forever. August 3, 1997. In the bathroom of his suburban home, eight-year-old Lulu is trying on his mom's lipstick. He dreams of kissing his best friend, a neighborhood boy. Meanwhile, his teenage sister, Cam, covers her much-older boyfriend sneaking up to her bedroom by blasting the latest summer hits. In the kitchen, their mother is waiting for their father, who didn't come home last night. On TV, newscasters are announcing the death of Princess Diana.... All Princesses Die Before Dawn is a devastating and richly illustrated slice-of-life graphic novel that has already found critical success in France that does not shy away from addressing homophobia, emotional abuse, and broken families, but remains quietly optimistic about the strength of love and the human spirit.

DANTES INFERNO GN

Guided by the poet Virgil, Dante crosses the nine circles of Hell to find his beloved, Beatrice, in Paradise. Along the way, he must recognize and reject each of the incarnations of sin. In each circle of Hell, Dante confronts both sinners and demons, from Cleopatra, Helen of Troy, Achilles, and Paris, whose loves were famously their downfall, to the Greek Furies and Medusa, to heretics like Epicurus, whose teachings claimed that the soul died with the body, now forced to writhe in a flaming tomb for eternity. Each layer of Hell reveals monsters, gods, historical and mythological kings, philosophers, queens, and hordes of the miserable, faceless damned, all culminating in a confrontation with Lucifer himself. Paul and Gaëtan Brizzi make Dante's famously dense literary classic accessible without distorting it and betraying the spirit of the Italian genius. They deftly translate it into comics while taking care to preserve the heart of the story: a taste for excess, dramatic tension, and the inevitable darkness of the subject matter.

Readers could cut out all 100 of these super hero and super villain stamps and place them in a special mail-order booklet. Once complete, these stamp books could then be redeemed for special discounts and exclusive merchandise. The program was so successful, a second set was released in 1975. And now, for the first time, these original stamp books, stamps, and all of the surrounding ephemera and source material are collected into one must-have volume for collectors and fans, along with text from Marvel Comics historian Roy Thomas and an all-new cover by Alex Ross.
