A Flight of Angels Hardcover
Written by HOLLY BLACK, BILL WILLINGHAM, ALISA KWITNEY, LOUISE HAWES and T.D. MITCHELL
Conceived and illustrated by REBECCA GUAY
ANGELS: Guardians. Messengers. Warriors. Fallen. All these angelic aspects and more are explored in A
FLIGHT OF ANGELS, a riveting tale in the tradition of The Decameron and The Canterbury Tales. A
mysterious angel plummets to Earth and lands deep in a dark forest, where his dying body is found by the
mystical denizens of this strange place. As the gathered fauns, fairies, hags and hobgoblins debate what
to do with him, each tells a different story of who they imagine this celestial creature to be: a hero, a lover, a
protector or a killer. Once the stories have been told, a verdict is rendered – and the outcome will leave you
breathless. Conceived and stunningly illustrated by fantasy art legend Rebecca Guay (Magic: The
Gathering, Veils), A FLIGHT OF ANGELS is written by an all-star line-up of today’s top fantasy talent,
including Bill Willingham (FABLES) and Holly Black (The Spiderwick Chronicles) in tales that will grip your
heart and make your imagination soar. 128 PGS. Rated Mature Readers

Aaron & Ahmed TPB
Written by JAY CANTOR; Art and cover by JAMES ROMBERGER
"What causes terrorism?" After his fiancée dies on 9/11, this question plagues Aaron Goodman. It
makes him give up his career as a doctor to become an interrogator at Guantanamo Bay. It leads him to
meme theory, as he wonders if there could be a cold science behind the conversion of people into
suicide bombers. And ultimately, it brings him to Ahmed, a Gitmo prisoner who promises the answers to
all of Aaron's questions, and in the process, he'll take Aaron from Guantanamo Bay to the jihadist camps
in Pakistan, back to Ground Zero in New York City. But where do Ahmed's real loyalties lie? From where
did that loyalty spring? To answer that, Aaron will have to reexamine everything he believes and stare
down one of the most compelling questions of the 21st century. MacArthur Prize fellow and novelist Jay
Cantor (Krazy Kat, Great Neck) joins artist James Romberger (THE BRONX KILL) for this unforgettable
and pressingly relevant graphic novel. 128 PGS.

Can't Get No TPB
Written by Rick Veitch; Art and Cover by Veitch
Corporate exec Chad Roe had the "perfect" modern life. But the trophy wife, the prestigious job and the
pills have always threatened to overwhelm him, and things go from bad to ugly when one night of
debauchery hits the sobering light of September 11, 2001.
Comics iconoclast Rick Veitch (SWAMP THING, Brat Pack) writes and illustrates a graphic novel as
singular in its execution as it is in the events it portrays. Half the height of a standard comic, told in
landscape format with over 350 pages of story, Can't Get No features Veitch inventing a poetry unique to
the medium to tell the story of a man and nation torn by tragedy.
Reeling from the financial collapse of his business, Chad Roe descends into a night of depravity, only to
wake up a "marked" man – literally – his body covered in a permanent tattoo. But Chad will be only one of
the many whose lives are forever changed after that Tuesday morning of September 11, 2001. Instead of
picking up the pieces, he takes to the road, heading straight into the shell-shocked heart of America on a
desperate search for salvation. B&W, 352 PGS.

Fountain TPB
Written by Darren Aronofsky; Adapted by Kent Williams; Art and cover by Williams
This fall, Darren Aronofsky — the acclaimed director behind such critically acclaimed films as Pi and
Requiem for a Dream – releases The Fountain, his most ambitious movie yet. Now, in time for the film's
greatly anticipated debut, is the softcover edition of last year's sought-after THE FOUNTAIN graphic novel,
which earned artist Kent Williams (Blood: A Tale, Havok/Wolverine: Meltdown) an Eisner Award nomination
for Best Painter.
An odyssey about one man's thousand-year struggle to save the woman he loves, The Fountain follows
Thomas as he feverishly travels through three distinct eras: as a 16th century conquistador battling a fierce
Mayan army, as a present-day scientist searching for a cure for his wife's mortal disease and as a future
explorer seeking to uncover the secrets of a dying star.
The Fountain graphic novel is a sister-project to the film, which is released by Warner Bros. Pictures and
Regency Enterprises and stars Tony-Award-winner Hugh Jackman (The Boy from Oz, X-Men) and Oscar-
winner Rachel Weisz (The Constant Gardener, The Mummy). Using the same story as its seed but
stretched instead upon the limitless canvas of the comics medium, the graphic novel provides an insider's
accompaniment to the movie, providing perhaps the ultimate "director's cut. Oversized Softcover, 176 PGS.

How to Understand Israel in 60 Days or Less TPB
Written by SARAH GLIDDEN Art and cover by SARAH GLIDDEN
When Sarah Glidden took a “Birthright Israel” tour, she thought she knew what she was getting herself
into. But when she got to Israel, she found that things weren’t quite so simple. HOW TO UNDERSTAND
ISRAEL is Sarah’s memoir not only of her Israeli government-sponsored trip through Tel Aviv, Jerusalem,
the Golan Heights, Masada and other famous locations, but of the emotional journey she never expected
to take while she was there. Her experience clashes with her preconceived notions again and again,
particularly when she tries to take a non-chaperoned trip into the West Bank. Sarah is forced to question
first her political beliefs and then her own sense of identity, until she finds that to understand Israel she
first must come to understand herself. 208 PGS. Rated Mature Readers

Inconegro Hardcover
Written by Mat Johnson; Art by Warren Pleece; Cover by Stephen John Philips
Writer Mat Johnson (HELLBLAZER: PAPA MIDNITE), winner of the prestigious Hurston-Wright Legacy
Award for fiction, constructs a fearless graphic novel that is both a page-turning mystery and a
disturbing exploration of race and self-image in America, masterfully illustrated with rich period detail
by Wareen Pleece (THE INVISIBLES, HELLBLAZER). In the early 20th Century, when lynchings were
commonplace throughout the American South, a few courageous reporters from the North risked their
lives to expose these atrocities. They were African-American men who, due to their light skin color,
could "pass" among the white folks. They called this dangerous assignment going "incognegro." Zane
Pinchback, a reporter for the New York-based New Holland Herald barely escapes with his life after his
latest "incognegro" story goes bad. But when he returns to the sanctuary of Harlem, he's sent to
investigate the arrest of his own brother, charged with the brutal murder of a white woman in
Mississippi. With a lynch mob already swarming, Zane must stay "incognegro" long enough to uncover
the truth behind the murder in order to save his brother — and himself. He finds that the answers are
buried beneath layers of shifting identities, forbidden passions and secrets that run far deeper than
skin color. 136 PGS. B&W. Rated Mature Readers

Written by KEVIN BAKER Art and cover by DANIJEL ZEZELJ
New York Times bestselling author Kevin Baker (Dreamland) writes his first original graphic novel with
internationally acclaimed artist Danijel Zezelj. Alik Strelnikov lives in the shadow of Coney Island, a world of
silenced rides and rusting amusement parks that mock his dreams of becoming a hero. Ten years ago,
he traded a brutal existence in the Russian army for the promise of America only to become an enforcer in
the Brooklyn mob. Now, he chases his ghosts with all he has left: booze, heroin and his lover, Marina,
part-time prostitute and full-time fortune teller. The only way the two of them can escape their miserable
fates hinges on a desperate plan that will put them between warring mobs and span a century, from
contemporary Coney Island to the Russia of the Second Chechen War to spellbinding 1910s New York.
Mixing historical novel, immigrant fiction and crime thriller, LUNA PARK marks Kevin Baker's return to
Coney Island, the setting of his critically beloved Dreamland and features breathtaking art by Danijel Zezelj
(LOVELESS) with to-die-for colors by Dave Stewart (DC: THE NEW FRONTIER). 160 PGS. Rated Mature

Marzi TPB
Written by MARZENA SOWA Art and cover by SYLVAIN SAVOIA
“I am Marzi, born in 1979, ten years before the end of communism in Poland. My father works at a factory,
my mother at a dairy. Social problems are at their height. Empty stores are our daily bread. I’m scared of
spiders, and the world of adults doesn’t seem like a walk in the park.” Told from a young girl’s perspective,
Marzena Sowa’s memoir of a childhood shaped by politics feels remarkably fresh and immediate.
Structured as a series of vignettes that build on one another, MARZI is a compelling and powerful coming-
of-age story that portrays the harsh realities of life behind the Iron Curtain while maintaining the everyday
wonders and curiosity of childhood. With open and engaging art by Sylvain Savoia, MARZI is a moving and
resonant story of an ordinary girl in turbulent, changing times. 256 PGS.

A digest-sized, black-and-white trade paperback reprinting the 4-issue Vertigo miniseries from writer Mike
Carey (LUCIFER) and artists Sonny Liew and Marc Hempel, MY FAITH IN FRANKIE tells the story of a girl

beyond a broken heart, and Frankie and Jeriven will both have to do some fast growing-up if they're going
to survive. This collection also features sketchbook material from Liew and preview pages of Jill

Pride of Baghdad TPB
Written by Brian K. Vaughan; Art and cover by Niko Henrichon
In his award-winning work on Y: THE LAST MAN and EX MACHINA (one of Entertainment Weekly's 2005
Ten Best Fiction titles), writer Brian K. Vaughan has displayed an understanding of both the cost of survival
and the political nuances of the modern world. Now, in this provocative graphic novel, Vaughan examines
life on the streets of war-torn Iraq. The experience is made all the more evocative by the lush, spectacular
artwork of Niko Henrichon. In the spring of 2003, a pride of lions escaped from the Baghdad Zoo during an
American bombing raid. Lost and confused, hungry but finally free, the four lions roamed the decimated
streets of Baghdad in a desperate struggle for their lives. In documenting the plight of the lions, PRIDE OF
BAGHDAD raises questions about the true meaning of liberation - can it be given, or is it earned only
through self-determination and sacrifice? And in the end, is it truly better to die free than to live life in
captivity? 136 PGS. Rated Mature Readers

Sentences: The Life of M.F. Grimm Hardcover
Written by Percy Carey; Art and Cover by Ronald Wimberly
Underground rap icon Percy Carey tells the true story of his life in the "Hip-Hop Game" — the dizzying
heights and heartbreaking losses — in the raw and brutally honest hardcover graphic novel memoir
SENTENCES: THE LIFE OF M.F. GRIMM. In SENTENCES, Carey chronicles his life in the sometimes
glamorous, and often violent, hip-hop industry; from the first time he picked up a microphone at a block
party as a youngster, to the day he lost the use of his legs to gang violence, to his incarceration, and
eventually, to his self-reinvention and rise back to the top of his game, becoming a Hip-Hop Grand
Master and being placed among the pantheon of the culture. No questions are left unanswered and no
apologies are made, resulting in what's sure to be a groundbreaking graphic novel. Joining Carey is
up-and-coming artist Ronald Wimberly (LUCIFER, HELLBLAZER: PAPA MIDNITE covers), who
breathtakingly illustrates this gritty tale of righteous redemption. If what you know about hip-hop is the
flashy cars and voluptuous women that music videos try to sell, be prepared to experience the real side
of the industry that only someone who has survived the rise, fall, and rise again, can tell. 128 PGS.

Stuck Rubber Baby TPB New Edition
Written by HOWARD CRUSE Art and cover by HOWARD CRUSE
The groundbreaking, award-winning semi-autobiographical graphic novel returns in a new edition
featuring an introduction by Alison Bechdel, award winning author of Fun Home. In the 1960s American
South, a young gas-station attendant named Toland Polk is rejected from the Army draft for admitting
“homosexual tendencies,” and falls in with a close-knit group of young locals yearning to break from the
conformity of their hometown through civil rights activism, folk music and upstart communality of race-
mixing, gay-friendly nightclubs. Toland’s story is both deeply personal and epic in scope, as his search for
identity plays out against the brutal fight over segregation, an unplanned pregnancy and small-town
bigotry, aided by an unforgettable supporting cast. B&W. 224 PGS. Rated Mature Readers

Witching Hour TPB
Written by Jeph Loeb Art by Chris Bachalo & Art Thibert Cover by Chris Bachalo
The moody miniseries by award-winning writer Jeph Loeb (BATMAN: HUSH, Hulk, Ultimatum) with art by
Chris Bachalo (DEATH: THE HIGH COST OF LIVING) and Art Thibert (TRINITY) is available once more in
this new printing of a Vertigo classic, featuring a section of sketches by Bachalo. The setting is Manhattan,
where the mysterious Amanda Collins moves through the troubled lives of ordinary people armed with
little more than a blank white business card and a strange, supernatural presence. She's giving them the
chance to change their lives, but the choice they make will depend entirely on the forces that already exist
in their hearts. Amanda herself is a mesmerizing presence and, as she works modern magic with the
help of a colorful — if not entirely loyal — coterie of followers, another side of her begins to emerge: one
that is troubled, powerful and possibly centuries old. At the crossroads of the supernatural and the very
real, this book spins bold, provocative tales of sin, magic and redemption. 160 PGS. Rated Mature
