American Vampire Hardcover Volume 1
Written by SCOTT SNYDER & STEPHEN KING Art and cover by RAFAEL ALBUQUERQUE
From writers Scott Snyder and Stephen King, AMERICAN VAMPIRE introduces a new strain of vampire – a
more vicious species – and traces the creatures' bloodline through decades of American history. This first
hardcover volume of the critically acclaimed series collects issues #1-5 and follows two stories: one
written by Snyder and one written by King, both with art by future superstar Rafael Albuquerque. Snyder's
tale follows Pearl, a young woman living in 1920s Los Angeles, who is brutally turned into a vampire and
sets out on a path of righteous revenge against the European monsters who tortured and abused her. And
in King's story set in the days of America's Wild West, readers learn the origin of Skinner Sweet, the
original American vampire – a stronger, faster creature than any vampire ever seen before. Don't miss out
as Snyder and King set fire to the horror genre with this visionary, all-original take on one of the most
popular monster stories! This beautiful collection features a new introduction by Stephen King and bonus
art including character sketches, variant covers and more! 192 PGS. Rated Mature Readers

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.

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

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.

secretly kept tabs on him all his life. Now, to protect his life and discover the truth behind his origins, Tom

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
