A long time after the Big Bang, but long before giant reptiles
first began to swim about the watery oceans of our planet, there is
a little-known segment of Earths history. This era, this unrecorded
time, is known to those who study it as Early Earth.
Early Earth has two poles, North and South, where live two
distinct peoples, the Nords and the Su-its, who on the whole have
nothing to do with each other, first because they rarely venture
from their own lands, and second because like magnets they actually
repel each other. So when a Nordic explorer finds his way to
the
South Pole and falls in love with a Su-it girl, their story is
likely to be tragic.
Theirs is just one of the tales in this wonderful book. Others
tell of three sisters who find a lost baby and adopt him, but, each
one wanting him for herself, they persuade the Medicine Man to
split him into three with dire consequences; the boy becomes a
storyteller and travels the Earth to
strange lands telling his epic tales.
A debut graphic novel of stunning beauty, huge originality and
brilliant story-telling by a young British author of huge
promise

Like most kids, Katie was a picky eater. Shed sit at the table
in silent protest, hide uneaten toast in her bedroom, listen to
parental threats that shed have to eat it
for breakfast.
But in any life a set of circumstances can collide, and normal
behaviour might soon shade into something sinister, something
deadly.
Lighter Than My Shadow is a hand-drawn story of struggle and
recovery, a trip into the black heart of a taboo illness, an
exposure of those who are so weak as to prey on the vulnerable, and
an inspiration to anybody
who believes in the human power to endure towards happiness.
A beautiful, heartbreaking and ultimately heart-lifting graphic
memoir

On the buttoned-down island of Here, all is well. By which we
mean: orderly, neat, contained and, moreover, beardless.
Or at least it is until one famous day, when Dave, bald but for
a single hair, finds himself assailed by a terrifying,
unstoppablemonster*!
Where did it come from? How should the islanders deal with it?
And what, most importantly, are they going to do with Dave?
The first book from a new leading light of UK comics, The
Gigantic Beard That Was Evil is a fable worthy of Roald Dahl. It is
about life, death and the
meaning of beards.
(*We mean a gigantic beard, basically.)
An amazing book. Completely original. Surreal, yet believable.

The world has changed forever, ravaged by climatic upheaval. The
flooded metropolis of London has adapted to the rising sea levels,
remaining a centre for international commerce and a magnet for
environmental refugees. The elite gaze out over the ever-expanding
Thames from their ivory towers, while the denizens of submerged
pubs peer into the sunken streets like specimens in an
aquarium.
Hired by notorious underworld figure Alexandra Bastet, Leo
Noiret uncovers a terrifying conspiracy that stretches from the
depths of Drowntown to the highest
echelons of power and influence.
Struggling aqua-courier Gina Cassel learns that young love can
be a dangerous game when she becomes romantically involved with the
heir to the Drakenberg Corporation, which aims to control both the
environment
and the future of human evolution.
Robbie Morrison writes the kind of high octane action and strong
characterization that good stories need. Dave Gibbons, co-author of

After the death of her son, Regina Segal takes her granddaughter
Mica to Warsaw, hoping to reclaim a family property lost during
World War II. As they get to know modern Warsaw, Regina is forced
to recall difficult things about her past, and Mica begins to
wonder if maybe their reasons for coming arent a little different
than her
grandmother led her to believe.
Rutu Modan offers up a world populated by prickly senior
citizens, officious public servants, and stubborn women a world
whose realism is expressed alternately in the absurdity of peoples
behaviour, and in the complex consequences of their sacrifices.
Savvy and insightful, elegant
and subtle, The Property is a triumph of storytelling and fine
lines.
The award-winning author of Exit Wounds returns with a story
about secrets, money and the complex bonds of love

Launched on July 1, 1916, the Battle of the Somme has come to
epitomise the madness of the First World War. Almost 20,000 British
soldiers were killed and another 40,000 were wounded that first
day, and there were more than one million casualties by the time
the offensive halted a few months later. In The Great War,
acclaimed cartoonist Joe Sacco depicts the events of that day in an
extraordinary, 24-foot-long wordless panorama: from the riding
exercises of General Douglas Haig to the legions of British
soldiers going over the top and being cut down in no-mans-land, to
the tens of thousands of wounded soldiers
retreating and the dead being buried en masse.
Printed on fine accordion-fold paper and packaged in a deluxe
hardcover slipcase with a 16-page accompanying booklet, The Great
War is a landmark work in Saccos illustrious career, and makes
visceral
one of the bloodiest days in history.
Saccos work [is] the best argument around for comics as a
journalistic medium. GQ
