All-Ghoul School
All-Ghoul School (Paperback)
By Marc Sumerak

Review & Description

Becca Norman has everything a high school Sophomore could ever want: beauty, brains, money, and popularity. But when she finds herself caught in the middle of a major cheating scandal, Becca's perfect little world comes crashing down around her! There's only one way to redeem herself - by spending the summer at a creepy old boarding school called Darkmoor Academy. Too bad Becca doesn't realize that Darkmoor Academy is secretly a finishing school for young female monsters... and she's been selected as the school's first human student! Unfortunately, Becca's creepy new classmates aren't too happy to have a human lurking in their shadows either. At her old school, Becca was at the top of the food chain, but at Darkmoor she's no more than a midnight snack! Only with the help of some freaky new friends will Becca be able to unseat the school's queen of mean, Elle Diablo, and restore some order to the most chaotic classroom in history. And you thought Algebra was scary! Read more

Anomalous (Paperback)

Anomalous
Anomalous (Paperback)
By S. Claus

Review & Description

"Anomalous" is a text-free sketchbook packed with demented doodles from the mind of 20+ year feature-film animation veteran Scott Claus. Compiled from five years worth of notebooks, this collection is fanciful, funny, sexy, disturbing, sloppy, stupid, beguiling and completely engrossing. Stuffed with hundreds of quick, raw pen sketches on lined notebook pages, the effect is that of an undiluted, rambling memoir charting images from one artist's subconscious over a period of time, creating a new form of self expression: a "doodle-ography."

Comic Squad (Volume 1) (Paperback)

Comic Squad (Volume 1)
Comic Squad (Volume 1) (Paperback)
By Ginger Voight

Review & Description

When twelve-year-old Alice Thorton moves to strange and unusual Stone Gully, the only tie she has to her recently deceased dad is his prized Joe Dakota comic book collection. The only other person in town who seems to show any interest in this treasure trove is Dwight, a forty-year-old kid and sniveling comic book store owner, who has his own purposes for some of her more rare memorabilia. He snatches a pair of 3-D glasses to go with his own copy of the matching comic book. In a cyclone of color and light that changes him from a flesh and blood man into a two dimensional drawing in the book, he realizes too late that this extremely rare combination actually opens a portal between the comic book world and his own. When dastardly Dr. Horror escapes into their sleepy little town, he and his henchman Twitch turn the entire burg on its ear by switching the personality of each adult thanks to a strange blue potion. This chaos buys him some time until he can perfect his ultimate weapon - his mind control potion - uninterrupted. It is a dangerous concoction that the new world and its fascinating elements can finally help him complete, and he has already singled out a target - the owner of the town's nuclear power plant. The new world also makes Dr. Horror stronger and younger by the day. Not so coincidentally it simultaneously steals the strength of his nemesis, the superhero Joe Dakota, the minute he tries to join the kids and subdue the villain. That means it is up to the geeks and the outcasts - a band of misfits, thrown together by their common knowledge of all things comic book - to defeat the bad guy and save their families, their town... and possibly the world. You used to call them geeks. Prepare to call them heroes. "Comic Squad" is the fun adventure for kids of all ages that challenges each individual to be their own hero, and to appreciate the unsung heroes we have right in our own family. It's a story about friendship, about family and the inner courage within. Join Alice and the gang for the first adventure of The Comic Squad, and enjoy the first chapter of the new adventures of the Squad, available exclusively in the paperback version! Read more

You Might be a Monster: & Other Stories I Made Up (Hardcover)

You Might be a Monster: & Other Stories I Made Up
You Might be a Monster: & Other Stories I Made Up (Hardcover)
By (Artist) Attaboy

Review & Description

"Attaboy is the co-founder and editor of Hi-Fructose, the excellent new magazine about candy, toys, and monsters. He also creates his own incredibly-inspired and beautiful illustrations."—BoingBoing

"[Attaboy creates] a contradictory land where everything comes with sharp pointy teeth but works a way into your heart with their deceptive charms."—Clutter Magazine

What if you combined Shel Silverstein and Tim Burton with a dollop of Dr. Seuss? You'd get Attaboy. With a theatrical eye for the absurd and unbridled paintbrush, his hilarious anthology of illustrated poems will amuse everyone who is a kid at heart.

In his trademark style of bold color and twisted humor, Attaboy's baker's dozen of zany rhymes introduce off-the-wall characters (a child who is a sock magnet), highlights the adorably peculiar (a hugging cactus), and juxtaposes the mundane (counting sheep to sleep) with the bizarre (zombie clowns).

Then there's the title story. Because of his beastly behavior, Gustav's parents hire an expert to determine if their son is truly a monster! "Do you chew with BOTH your mouths open?" If you answer "yes" then more crazy creatures follow! Enjoy hidden jokes and hilarious wordplay in this collection from an irreverent twenty-first century imagination.

Attaboy is an internationally renowned gallery artist who successfully modernized classic toys and games for Hasbro and created stationary for Dark Horse Comics. The Disney Channel broadcast his animation Too Many Robots. He co-founded the quarterly popular art magazine Hi-Fructose (www.hifructose.com) whose collected volumes Last Gasp has been published.

The Sons of Liberty, Book 1 (Paperback)

The Sons of Liberty, Book 1
The Sons of Liberty, Book 1 (Paperback)
By Joseph Lagos

Review & Description

Forget everything you thought you knew about America's early days-history packs a punch in this full-color, two-fisted, edge-of-your-seat adventure!

 

Graphic novels are a revolution in literature, and The Sons of Liberty is a graphic novel like no other. Visual and visceral, fusing historical fiction and superhero action, this is a tale with broad appeal-for younger readers who enjoy an exciting war story, for teenagers asking hard questions about American history, for adult fans of comic books, for anyone seeking stories of African American interest, and for reluctant readers young and old.

 

In Colonial America, Graham and Brody are slaves on the run-until they gain extraordinary powers. At first they keep a low profile. But their mentor has another idea-one that involves the African martial art dambe . . . and masks.

 

With its vile villains, electrifying action, and riveting suspense, The Sons of Liberty casts new light on the faces and events of pre-Revolution America, including Ben Franklin and the French and Indian War. American history has rarely been this compelling-and it's never looked this good.

Review & Description

Anya could really use a friend. But her new BFF isn’t kidding about the “Forever” part . . .

Of all the things Anya expected to find at the bottom of an old well, a new friend was not one of them. Especially not a new friend who’s been dead for a century.

Falling down a well is bad enough, but Anya’s normal life might actually be worse. She’s embarrassed by her family, self-conscious about her body, and she’s pretty much given up on fitting in at school. A new friend—even a ghost—is just what she needs.

Or so she thinks.

Spooky, sardonic, and secretly sincere, Anya’s Ghost is a wonderfully entertaining debut from author/artist Vera Brosgol.Product Description

"Highly recommended for anyone who has ever wanted a super power or laughed at the antics of Hollywood's A-list."

"Boltman is more than just a hilarious superhero dark comedy. It is also an inspired parody of celebrity cult madness, a meditation on the impact of superhero mythology, and an exploration of different kinds of heroism and hero worship."

A hapless young man believes he is the incarnation of Boltman, a comic book superhero. On a quest to unlock the secret of Boltman’s super powers and complete his transformation, Kevin must rescue his sidekick, Ampere, from the clutches of Tommie Boy and the Church of the Mind, an evil celebrity cult of energy vampires. In his costume, Kevin is stronger and faster than anyone can believe; he becomes Boltman, but Boltman has a mind of its own. On the path to fulfill his destiny, Kevin begins to wonder if he is really just losing his mind, or if Boltman is a separate entity, bent on using Kevin for its own mysterious ends."Highly recommended for anyone who has ever wanted a super power or laughed at the antics of Hollywood's A-list."
