MORE THAN MORTAL #0 - Creators: by Sharon Scott & Wellington Alves Description: Full Color. The hugely-successful fantasy series, More Than Mortal, returns to Avatar with original creator and writer Sharon Scott! In ancient Ireland, the land was riddled with both internal clan rivalries, and external invasion; it was a time of legends, great warriors, and fierce druidic magic. Although the Tuath gods no longer walked the land, their power and influence still pervaded. The battle between Man and dark Faerie had been waging for decades. The battle came to a head during a bloody siege at a temple in Kildare where Midir and his Faerie horde were devastating the Celtic army. It seemed all was lost... and that an entire people and their way of life would be destroyed. Desperate, a group of druids performed a powerful spell; a plea to the Land to protect itself. The druids gave birth to a guardian that day; a being that emulated the very essence of Ireland and its distinction: beauty, strength, independence. She was an elemental, part of the land, and bound to defend it - she became Brigid The Protector.

(6x9) BLACK HOLE COLLECTED HC - Available again. Creators: by Charles Burns Description: Black & White. Suburban Seattle, the mid-1970s. We learn from the out-set that a strange plague has descended upon the area's teenagers, transmitted by sexual contact. The disease is manifested in any number of ways - from the hideously grotesque to the subtle (and concealable) - but once you've got it, that's it. There's no turning back. As we inhabit the heads of several key characters - some kids who have it, some who don't, some who are about to get it - what unfolds isn't the expected battle to fight the plague, or bring heightened awareness to it , or even to treat it. What we become witness to instead is a fascinating and eerie portrait of the nature of high school alienation itself - the savagery, the cruelty, the relentless anxiety and ennui, the longing for escape. And then the murders start. As hypnotically beautiful as it is horrifying, Black Hole transcends its genre by deftly exploring a specific American cultural moment in flux and the kids who are caught in it. 352 pages. (7x10) Publisher Rating: MATURE THEMES. LONG CHALKBOARD & OTHER STORIES GN - Available again. Creators: by Jenny Allen & Jules Feiffer Description: Black & White. Here is a triptych of modern life as it is lived by men and women of a certain age: the baby boomers. Jenny Allen's clever, offbeat narratives and Jules Feiffer's playfully expressive drawings coax to the surface the hidden anxieties, familiar frustrations, and downright fury that we try to convince ourselves that we don't feel. The characters who move through these stories are reckoning with lives that didn't turn out quite the way the expected. On the other hand what they didn't expect turns out to be all right anyway: a little redemption bubbling up in the kitchen where "Judy's Wonder Chili" is made; or hiding in the folds of an origami crane, waiting to be found by the children's book writer in "Something Happened"; or revealing itself on the surface of the well-used chalkboard of the title tale. 128 pages.

(7.5x9.5) MAGIC MIRROR OF MC ESCHER TASCHEN 25TH ANIV EDITION - Creators: by Bruno Ernst & M.C. Escher Description: Full Color. In taking that title for this book, mathematician Bruno Ernst is stressing the magic spell Escher's work invariably casts on those who see it. Ernst visited Escher every week for a year, systematically talking through his entire oeuvre with him. Their discussions resulted in a friendship that gave Ernst intimate access to the life and conceptual world of Escher. Ernst's account was meticulously scrutinized and made accurate by the artist himself. Escher's work refuses to be pigeonholed. Scientific, psychological, or aesthetic criteria alone cannot do it justice. The questions remain. Why did he create the pictures? How did he construct them? What preliminary studies were necessary before he could arrive at the final version? And how are the various images Escher created interrelated? This book, complete with biographical data, 250 illustrations, and explications of mathematical problems, offers answers to these and many other questions, and is an authentic source text of the first order. 240 pages.
