Book excerpt: From Scott Peterson and José García comes Truckus Maximus, a YA dystopian graphic novel about modern-day gladiators who race monster trucks on reality TV. In a near-future world where the Roman Empire never fell, only two things matter: honor and the Game. “The Game” is Truckus Maximus, a competition where drivers race against one another—to the death. The best of the best is a young driver named Axl. The leader of Team Apollo, Axl drives hard and lives by a strict moral code. That code will be tested to its limits by the Caesar—the cunning ruler of the Roman Empire—and the Dominus, the absolute master of the Truckus Maximus games who can change its rules at will. But Axl can't survive this race on his own. To do that, he'll have to embrace his team, including a defiant new racer named Piston. Will he learn that family is more important than honor or the Game? Or will he go down in flames?

Download or read book Creech written by Greg Capullo and published by . This book was released on 1999-08-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Released in July 1999, the Creech Trade Paperback, "Rage Against Death", collected the story that creator/writer/artist Greg Capullo first showed us two years ago. This collection features a new cover by Ashley Wood, an introduction by Todd McFarlane, character and creator bios, updated graphics, and yes, spelling mistakes were fixed, too. Although this collection does not collect every single printed page from the original series, the first printing possess, by accident, a great collectors value. Delays at Todd McFarlane Productions as well as Quantum Graphics set the release date back from early June to mid-July. All first printing copies produced were printed on damaged paper. Apparently, the printers sent the book out with what basically looks like water damage on most or all the pages. When creator Greg Capullo saw this he was furious. He immediately contacted Todd McFarlane's office to rectify the situation. With the initial print run being around 7,000 copies, and only about half that shipped, it was arranged to destroy the remained damaged issues and reprint them. The new copies printed to fix the error will still be labeled as "first printing." However, according to Capullo, the new issues that will be reprinted will have some changes, namely the back cover summary. Currently, if you have a Trade Paperback with the summary that starts with "A living creature from human DNA combined with alien genetic material leaves a trail of death and destruction when it escapes from the embryo compound." then you have one of only around 3,000 copies of that edition.

Download or read book Horror Comics in Black and White written by Richard J. Arndt and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2013-01-21 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1954, the comic book industry instituted the Comics Code, a set of self-regulatory guidelines imposed to placate public concern over gory and horrific comic book content, effectively banning genuine horror comics. Because the Code applied only to color comics, many artists and writers turned to black and white to circumvent the Code's narrow confines. With the 1964 Creepy #1 from Warren Publishing, black-and-white horror comics experienced a revival continuing into the early 21st century, an important step in the maturation of the horror genre within the comics field as a whole. This generously illustrated work offers a comprehensive history and retrospective of the black-and-white horror comics that flourished on the newsstands from 1964 to 2004. With a catalog of original magazines, complete credits and insightful analysis, it highlights an important but overlooked period in the history of comics.

Download or read book The Comics of Joe Sacco written by Daniel Worden and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2015-07-29 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named a Notable Scholarly Publication of 2015 by the Comics Studies Society Contributions by Georgiana Banita, Lan Dong, Ann D'Orazio, Kevin C. Dunn, Alexander Dunst, Jared Gardner, Edward C. Holland, Isabel Macdonald, Brigid Maher, Ben Owen, Rebecca Scherr, Maureen Shay, Marc Singer, Richard Todd Stafford, and Øyvind Vågnes The Comics of Joe Sacco addresses the range of his award-winning work, from his early comics stories as well as his groundbreaking journalism Palestine (1993) and Safe Area to Goražde (2000), to Footnotes in Gaza (2009) and his most recent book The Great War (2013), a graphic history of World War I. First in the series, Critical Approaches to Comics Artists, this edited volume explores Sacco's comics journalism and features established and emerging scholars from comics studies, cultural studies, geography, literary studies, political science, and communication studies. Sacco's work has already found a place in some of the foundational scholarship in comics studies, and this book solidifies his role as one of the most important comics artists today. Sections focus on how Sacco's comics journalism critiques and employs the standard of objectivity in mainstream reporting, what aesthetic principles and approaches to lived experience can be found in his comics, how Sacco employs the space of the comics page to map history and war, and the ways that his comics function in the classroom and as human rights activism. The Comics of Joe Sacco offers definitive, exciting approaches to some of the most important--and necessary--comics today, by one of the most acclaimed journalist-artists of our time.
