"This is the tale of the titular Pietrolino, a man who came to use his skills as a mime to stand up against the oppressor and cheer the bruised souls of a Nazi-occupied France. The graphic novel adaptation of a theatre play originally written by the ever multi-faceted Alexandro Jodorowsky ("The Incal," "The Metabarons") for the famous French mime Marcel Marceau. It is here poetically brought to life by prolific European artist and frequent Humanoids contributor, O.G. Boiscommun ("The Book of Jack")."

"An award-winning graphic biography of one of the world’s best-loved artists, Pablo follows Picasso’s artistic career from his origins in penury to the advent of modern art. Taking in the artist’s early life among the bohemians of Montmartre, with all of its scandal and frustration, and his turbulent relationship with his model and lover Fernande, Julie Birmant and Clément Oubrerie show how Picasso’s style developed in response to his friendships and rivalries. An entertaining and beautifully drawn account, this authoritative graphic novel explores the themes and obsessions - among them, sex, death and his great nemesis, Henri Matisse - that drove Picasso to express himself."

"What if we are merely shadows, our characters defined by a simple inflection of light? The realm of possibilities opens up, because in our world we are nothing but spectators. The Spectators unfolds as a poetic and philosophical introspection on the nature of man. Hussenot’s palette is awash with subtle colour, gently carrying the narrative and allowing the reader to envelop themselves in the lyricism of the work. Reminiscent of French New Wave cinema with its clipped dialogue, gentle pacing and departure from a classic narrative structure, The Spectators is an exciting new graphic novel."

THE AGE OF SELFISHNESS

AYN RAND, MORALITY, AND THE FINANCIAL CRISIS
"Tracing the emergence of Ayn Rand’s philosophy of objectivism in the 1940s to her present-day influence, Darryl Cunningham’s latest work of graphic-nonfiction investigation leads readers to the heart of the global financial crisis of 2008. Cunningham uses Rand’s biography to illuminate the policies that led to the economic crash in the U.S. and in Europe, and how her philosophy continues to affect today’s politics and policies, starting with her most noted disciple, economist Alan Greenspan (former chairman of the Federal Reserve). Cunningham also shows how right-wing conservatives, libertarians, and the Tea Party movement have co-opted Rand’s teachings (and inherent contradictions) to promote personal gain and profit at the expense of the middle class. Tackling the complexities of economics by distilling them down to a series of concepts accessible to all age groups, Cunningham ultimately delivers a devastating analysis of our current economic world."

ANISH & ANTONY TAKE AFGHANISTAN

A GRAPHIC SHORT-STORY
"The astonishing power of public art has long been recognized by both governments and "big business" alike in the West, with increasingly enormous public sculptures being deployed to "regenerate" ailing post-industrial areas, or create the "wow factor" on corporate HQ piazzas and at ever-expanding airports. But what if this strategy were employed in an attempt to turn around the fortunes of a whole country? This book proposes a scenario in which two giants of British public art are commissioned by the United Nations in a last ditch attempt to solve the social, financial and political problems of Afghanistan."

"Detta är en självbiografisk kokbok om sångerskan Lena Junoffs fantastiska liv, berättad i tecknad serieform och genom fotografier och tidningsklipp. Allt startar med att journalisten Bo Sjökvist gör ett program om Johnny Bode och åker hem till Lena Junoff för att intervjua henne om hennes medverkan på skivan ”Bordellmammans dotter”.  Men istället börjar Lena Junoff berätta och sjunga hela sin gripande livshistoria inifrån sextiotalets popindustri, samtidigt som hon bjuder på maträtter, oftast komponerade och tillagade i mikron. Vi får i denna bok följa hennes karriär ritad som en grafisk roman av en Sveriges mest egensinniga och roligaste serietecknare, Pontus Lundkvist.

Lena Junoff beskriver självutlämnade sina affärer och möten med Rod Stewart, Beach Boys, byxspräckarkungen PJ Proby, Paul Anka, Spotnicks,  Prinsen av Munchen, Chuck Berry, Willy Brandt, Hep Stars, Rolf Eden, Cornelis Vreeswijk, Claes af Geijerstam, Duke Ellington, Anita Lindblom, Bosse Högberg och många fler.

Det har blivit en bok som inte liknar någon annan bok."

Infantilt! Krenkende! Kvalmende! Ufint! Problematisk! Jupp, og alt dette er samlet i et storslagent bind.
 
"Johnny Ryan's utterly unpretentious taboo-tackling is an infectious and hilarious bombardment of political incorrectness, taking full advantage of the medium's absurdist potential for maximum laughs. In an age when the medium is growing up and aspiring to more mature and hoity-toity literary heights, Ryan builds on the visceral tradition that cartooning has had on our collective funny bone for over a century. Now, for the first time, all fourteen issues of Ryan's career-defining comic book series Angry Youth Comix (2000-2008) are collected in one place. All the comics, the covers, and even the contentious letters pages, in one toilet-ready brick shithouse."

"Who are the Rat Queens? A pack of booze-guzzling, death-dealing battle maidens-for-hire, and they’re in the business of killing all god’s creatures for profit. It’s also a darkly comedic sass-and-sorcery series starring Hannah the Rockabilly Elven Mage, Violet the Hipster Dwarven Fighter, Dee the Atheist Human Cleric and Betty the Hippy Smidgen Thief. This modern spin on an old school genre is a violent monster-killing epic that is like Buffy meets Tank Girl in a Lord of the Rings world on crack! Collecting the first five issues of the sold out hit series."
