1st printing. By Les Paul and Michael Cochran. Introduction by Sir Paul McCartney. At thirteen, he took the tone arm from his father's phonograph, jammed the heavy needle into the top of his five-dollar guitar, and filled it with Plaster of Paris to quell feedback. The guitar didn't survive, but his idea worked, essentially creating the first solid body electric guitar. Les Paul went on to alter countless guitars in his quest to create the perfect sound, making one breakthrough after another along the way. Non-stop experiments in his homemade recording studio led to the invention of sound-on-sound, multi-track recording, echo and a host of other discoveries that revolutionized the recording industry, while he and wife Mary Ford dominated early 1950s pop charts with a continual string of hits. Taken together, the enduring influence of his unique contributions to recording technology, instrument design and American popular music are unsurpassed. He truly is the man who changed the music, and now, Les Paul tells the whole story as only he could, in his own words. Hardcover, 9 1/2-in. x 11-in., 212 pages, full color.

1st printing. 1981-2006! By Eerie Von. From the deepest depths of punk rock's 1970s primordial wastelands, through the stygian goth swamps of the 1980s, and on into the bloodstained arenas of 1990s heavy metal, Eerie Von witnessed it all. Beginning as the unofficial photographer for punk legends The Misfits and later taking charge of the bass guitar as a founding member of underground pioneers Samhain and metal gods Danzig, the evil eye of Eerie Von's camera captured the dark heart of rock's most vital and bleeding-edge period, a time when rock and roll was not only dangerous, but downright menacing. Eerie Von's lens has documented everything from The Misfits' humble beginnings in Lodi, New Jersey, to the heights of Danzig's stadium-rock glory alongside metal superstars Metallica. As well as an essential visual document of music history, Eerie's road stories of triumph and damnation bring to life an era the likes of which will never again be seen. An essential historical photographic document of some of the most influential bands of punk, goth, and rock by Eerie Von. Features over 250 photos and a full-color tip-in poster! Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 160 pages, full color.

Mentioned in Scott McCloud's Making Comics as an example of comics using the web to create "an explosion of diverse genres and styles." Softcover, 128 pages, 7-in. x 7-in., 128 pages, B&W.

This is the story of RED ROCKET SEVEN: The entire history of rock n roll as seen through the eyes of the seventh clone of a man from a distant world. RR7 rubs shoulders with every legend from the birth of rock in the '50s, through the British invasion of the '60s, through the advent of Heavy Metal and Glam rock in the '70s, the New Wave of the '80s, the Grunge Rock and Indie/Alt. scene in the '90s, and into the new millennium!

Bughouse Volume 3 - 1st printing. By Steve Lafler. Dennis, the new piano player in Bughouse, is by all accounts a very funky musician and a genial chap. But before long, the real Dennis reveals himself as a gambling, lying, cheating, two-timing, drunken thief and all around Scalawag! Only when he encounters his doppelganger "Dennnis," does Dennis reach his epiphany: that the real force at the center of his life is love. Following the premise of Lafler's earlier title Bughouse, the action is set in an indigo toned, "insect noir" Manhattan of the 50s where all the characters are bug-headed hipster bop musicians. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 144 pages, B&W.

1st printing. Written by Percy Carey. Art and cover by Ronald Wimberly. Underground rap icon Percy Carey tells the true story of his life in the 'Hip-Hop Game' - the dizzying heights and heartbreaking losses - in the raw and brutally honest hardcover graphic novel memoir SENTENCES: THE LIFE OF M.F. GRIMM. In SENTENCES, Carey chronicles his life in the sometimes glamorous, and often violent, hip-hop industry; from the first time he picked up a microphone at a block party as a youngster, to the day he lost the use of his legs to gang violence, to his incarceration, and eventually, to his self-reinvention and rise back to the top of his game, becoming a Hip-Hop Grand Master and being placed among the pantheon of the culture. No questions are left unanswered and no apologies are made, resulting in what's sure to be a groundbreaking graphic novel. Joining Carey is up-and-coming artist Ronald Wimberly (LUCIFER, HELLBLAZER: PAPA MIDNITE covers), who breathtakingly illustrates this gritty tale of righteous redemption. If what you know about hip-hop is the flashy cars and voluptuous women that music videos try to sell, be prepared to experience the real side of the industry that only someone who has survived the rise, fall, and rise again, can tell.

1st printing. "The Art of Johnny Ace and Kali Verra!" From the darkest depths of artistic angst, from the steaming pits of punk-rock putrescence, from the grinding gears of the Kustom Kulture Krypt comes The Workshop of Filthy Creation: The Art of Johnny Ace and Kali Verra. Beginning with his career as an official Big Daddy Roth artist, veering through the birth of punk poster art, and now surfing on the cutting edge of lowbrow art and the new Kustom Kulture explosion, Johnny Ace (and his studio cohort, Kali Verra) has taken art by the throat and taught it a lesson it'll never forget! Eye-wrecking posters, Fink-tastic sculptures, voodoo pin striping, and every manner of doodad, gimcrack, and unholy talisman imaginable are on display. Mass appeal to hardcore rock fans-featuring posters for The Cramps, Electric Frankenstein, Dick Dale, and more! Johnny Ace Studios is currently working with the popular Lucky 13/Felon Apparel line on a series of monster/hot rod designs. Artwork will appear on T-shirts, belt buckles, and other product merchandise in stores everywhere. Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 112 pages, full color.
