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 +
Retail Price: $12.95
Our Price: $10.35 (You Save $2.60)

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 +
Release Date April 2008
Retail Price: $13.95

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 +
Retail Price: $24.95
Our Price: $19.95 (You Save $5.00)
