  • A GHOST ARM MADE OF ANGRY GHOSTS HC
    WRITTEN BY OLIVER MERTZ
    ART & COVER BY ALEX DIOTTO
    From writer and colorist extraordinaire Oliver Mertz (The Monuments, First Law of Mad Science) and acclaimed artist Alex Diotto (Youth, Indigo Children) comes a weird tale of conspiracy, faded superheroics, and suburban angst in ʼ90s Washington, D.C.
    Sixteen-year-old Ari Ackerman just witnessed a murder. Or two. Or maybe he didn't. He's not quite sure. What he does know is that he loves the Washington, D.C., punk scene and is trying very hard to process the perpetual impending death (and frequent resurrections) of his cancer-stricken father. Ari's best friend, Maya Meng, just wants to hang out and go see Jawbox play at the Black Cat. But sadly, an escalating series of unexplained deaths can really ruin a perfectly good day.
    For readers who like What's the Furthest Place from Here?, Love and Rockets, David Lynch, Daniel Clowes, Seinfeld, Agatha Christie, Powers, Fugazi, and Wes Anderson, A Ghost Arm Made of Angry Ghosts is sure to evoke all the feelings that come with being an outsider, making sense of the world around you, and finding your place in it.

    WRITTEN & ART BY YOANN KAVEGE
    From stunning emerging French cartoonist Yoann Kavege, travel the stars with Moon Deer to keep his quarry safe and complete his mission. Read this exquisitely rendered galaxy chase in English for the first time!
    To keep his precious egg safe from the mysterious hunter on his trail, little Moon Deer must flee across the infinite and empty space at the risk of his life. In this mostly wordless breathtaking graphic novel, an intergalactic chase unfolds that could seal the fate of the universe—ravaged by the dreaded True Silence—where one small deer is the last thing standing between humanity and complete annihilation.

    Will and Anita are two lonely tweens who find themselves alone together in the art room of the local after school club. After gushing over each other's work—Will's writing and Anita's art—the two team up to make their own comic about a local urban legend—a teen counselor who haunts the club after a tragic demise. Anita and Will research the ghost and develop their story, forming a strong friendship. But can they overcome bullies at the club and problems at home to become great friends and collaborators?

  • CANTICLE OF LOST SOULS HC
    WRITTEN BY MICHELE MONTELEONE
    ILLUSTRATED BY FREDDIE TANTO
    COLORED BY FRANCESCO SEGALA
    This dark exploration of identity and responsibility in the face of evil from Michele Monteleone (Dylan Dog) and Freddie Tanto (Ghost Stories) is an engrossing journey for fans of young adult fantasy!
    Teenage orphan Leah lives in a small village a few miles away from the deadly swamp. According to local legend, in ancient times the swamp was a lake with an imposing castle at the center, until someone awoke something behind those walls that needed to be kept asleep, and the castle collapsed as the swamp took over. Now people live precariously on its borders, as the swamp spawns "things" that the Church calls Demons.
    When her village's greatest hero is killed fighting off one of these monsters, leaving the shriveled, weak remnant of its evil contained in a lantern, Leah is chosen to carry the demon to the center of the swamp and cast it into the black pit. But as she journeys she'll encounter greater threats than that held tightly in her hand, and the demon raises questions about why Leah would risk her life for the village that would send her on this perilous task in the first place.
    What will Leah find in the ruins of the collapsed castle and the black pit? How far do we have to travel to know ourselves?
