Creatures of the Night Hardcover
Written by NEIL GAIMAN, Art by MICHAEL ZULLI
From the New York Times best-selling author Neil Gaiman comes a brand new hardcover collection,
featuring two magical and disturbing stories lushly adapted to comics by veteran painter Michael Zulli
(The Last Temptation). Newly rewritten by Gaiman for this graphic novel, these two ominous stories
from the author's award-winning prose, Smoke and Mirrors: Short Fictions and Illusions, feature
animals and people not being quite what they seem. In 'The Price,' a black cat like a small panther
arrives at a country home and is soon beset by mysterious and vicious wounds. What is he fighting
every night that could do this, and why does he persist? 'The Daughter of Owls' recounts an eerie old
tale of a foundling girl who was left-with an owl pellet-as a newborn on the steps of the Dymton Church.
She was soon cloistered away in a local convent, but by her fourteenth year word of her beauty had
spread-and those who would prey upon her faced unforeseen consequences. • 2004 will see the
release of the much-anticipated MirrorMask, a film written by Neil Gaiman and directed by longtime
collaborator Dave McKean for the Jim Henson Company and Columbia Trista. 48 PGS. Rated Age 16 +

Facts in the Case of the Departure of Miss Finch Hardcover
Written by NEIL GAIMAN, Art by MICHAEL ZULLI
Come, come and hear of the strange and terrible tale of Miss Finch, an exacting woman befallen by
mystery and abduction deep under the streets of London! New York Times best-selling author Neil
Gaiman delivers another stunning hardcover graphic novel with longtime collaborator Michael Zulli
(Creatures of the Night, The Sandman). This is the first comics adaptation of his popular story "The
Facts in the Case of the Departure of Miss Finch," which saw print only in the U.K. edition of Gaiman's
award-winning work Smoke and Mirrors: Short Fictions and Illusions and was recently interpreted for his
Speaking in Tongues CD. The Facts in the Case of the Departure of Miss Finch is a "mostly true story"
that combines the author's trademark magic realism with Zulli's sumptuous paintings, and has been
newly rewritten for this hardcover. Join a group of friends, with the stern Miss Finch in tow, as they enter
musty caverns for a subterranean circus spectacle called "The Theatre of Night's Dreaming." Come
inside, get out of the pounding rain, and witness this strange world of vampires, ringmasters, illusions,
and the Cabinet of Wishes Fulfill'd. 56 PGS. Rated Age 16 +

Plasticland
By FRANK KOZIK
The man credited with single-handedly reviving the concept of rock posters as an art form, Frank Kozik
was first exposed to the counterculture world of "designer art toys" on a trip to Japan in 1996. His
collecting hobby soon mutated into a new profession, and in 2002 Kozik made the leap from illustrator to
toy designer. Now considered one of the world's top three underground toy designers, Kozik shares all
the secrets of this arcane and cutting-edge art movement in Plasticland. This deluxe oversized volume,
the first collected work of Kozik's foray into this explosive new phenomenon, offers a fascinating look at
the creation and end result of modern toy design. A dazzling photographic record of all Kozik's production
and custom pieces through early 2006, the book also features his new works in serigraphy and oil
painting.
• Frank Kozik has created works for Nike, BASF, Slim Jim, and MTV. He divides his time between San
Francisco and Tokyo.
• Frank Kozik has been the subject of numerous magazine and newspaper articles, including features in
Newsweek, Rolling Stone, Spin, and Details. 9" x 13" Format, 112 PGS.

in a place legendary for keeping its secrets. There are forces at work in The Holy See that would see the
truth remain hidden-forces ancient and dark, with a power not seen in this world for millennia, and an

Signal to Noise Hardcover (Second Edition)
Written by NEIL GAIMAN, Art by DAVE MCKEAN
Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean present their masterpiece in a completely remastered and redesigned
edition overflowing with bonus material! Somewhere in London, a film director is dying of cancer. His
life’s crowning achievement, his greatest film, would have told the story of a European village as the last
hour of 999 A.D. approached—the midnight that the villagers were convinced would bring with it
Armageddon. Now that story will never be told. But he’s still working it out in his head, making a film that
no one will ever see. No one but us. Serialized in The Face in 1989, expanded and revised into a
graphic novel in 1992, and adapted for radio in 2000, Signal to Noise has never stopped evolving. The
bonus material in this first-time hardcover edition captures every leg of the journey, including three
related short stories unseen in nearly two decades, an additional chapter created for the CD release of
the radio drama, and a new introduction by Dave McKean along with the original by Jonathan Carrol and
the radio drama introduction by Neil Gaiman. Gaiman and McKean present their masterpiece in a
remastered hardcover! 8.5" x 11" Format, 96 PGS. Rated Age 16 +

Thun'da King of the Congo Archives Hardcover Volume 1
Written by Frank Frazetta and Gardner Fox, Art by Frank Frazetta and Bob Powell
Frank Frazetta is widely renowned as one of the greatest fantasy illustrators of all time. But he didn’t
hone his skills in study at the fabled galleries of Paris or Milan; his legendary talents flourished as he
worked for hire during the Golden Age of comics!
In the early 1950s, Frazetta set up shop at bustling comics publisher Magazine Enterprises, contributing
beautiful cover illustrations and comics pages. There, he also created his first mighty adventurer: the
lost-world-jungle hero Thun’da! Though Frazetta left Magazine Enterprises shortly after the first issue of
Thun’da was released, and the series was ultimately short lived despite the talented care of
collaborators Gardner Fox and Bob Powell, to this day the Thun’da, King of the Congo comics series is
held in high regard both as an exciting adventure title and as the only comics series ever to include a
cover-to-cover, all-Frazetta issue! Collecting all six issues of Thun’da, King of the Congo, as well as the
Thun’da backup stories that appeared in Cave Girl and Africa: Thrilling Land of Mystery. 224 PGS. Rated
Ages 12 +

ahead of everyone. Working for anyone while pledging allegiance to none, Zero is a bounty hunter who
hunts the dregs of a ruined society, saving some innocents in the process. Collects the six-issue
