1st printing. Text by Michael Friedlander. Art and cover by Joe Jusko. Thirty years ago, a trading card series was released that would forever change the nonsport card industry. The 1992 Marvel Masterpieces. Because of the sheer popularity of this series, it took an unprecedented 350,000 boxes to quench the thirst of card collectors worldwide. Nothing like it has been seen before or since. This series would not have become the monumental success that it did, had artist Joe Jusko not produced 104 mind-boggling paintings! Joe literally set the standard for all the Marvel Masterpieces series that were to follow. Each of the 104 paintings have become iconic portrayals of the great Marvel characters, and these cards hold such a special place in the hearts of collectors of all ages-many of whom were young, single-digit or teenaged fans at the time of the series release. It goes without saying that a large art book which highlights the amazing work Joe created is long overdue. The art needs to be presented at a larger-than-trading-card size.

It was followed by the instructional kit, Joe Kubert's Comic Book Studio, (2002). In his new book, JOE KUBERT: How to Draw from Life, designed for more mature art students, professionals and enthusiasts, Kubert presents a wealth of his own drawings from nude models spanning his years as an artist and art instructor.

Written by David Almond. Art and cover by Dave McKean.

Joe Quinn has been telling everyone about the poltergeist in his house, but no one believes him. No one, that is, except Davie.

And there's something else...a memory of Davie's beloved sister and a feeling deep down that it might just be possible for ghosts to exist. Full of thoughts of hauntings and grief and God, Davie hovers on a precipice of uncertainty and possibility, a space that storyteller David Almond occupies comfortably and returns to again and again, here paired once more with the dynamic, dreamlike mixed-media art of Dave McKean.

1st printing. Story and art byJohn Cuneo. Imagine a world where behind every suburban front door is a licentious bacchanal. Except that you don't have to imagine it because John Cuneo has imagined it for you. Whether it's ram-headed, alcoholic, paperpushers; hand puppet sex parties; or Hokusai's insatiable octopus (who turns out, knows a thing or two about the saxophone), Cuneo renders each intimate tableaux with delightfully feverish pen strokes and delicate watercolors. Like Aesop's deranged cousin, the artist effortlessly combines the fantastical and the grotesque, dashing off outrageous snapshots of bulbous heads, dapper cats, muses depicted as gargantuan Crumbian women, and a multitude of sex acts invented for the occasion. Say what you will about the intentions, the effect is a pearl-clutching, monocle-popping, knee-slapping graphic revelation. Hardcover, 9-in. x 12-in., 104 pages, full color. Mature Readers Cover price $30.00.

1st printing. Story and art by Lomig. Translated by Christopher Pope. What pushed John Muir to become the pioneering environmentalist and founder of the Sierra Club? 1867: A sawmill is running at full speed with a terrible noise when suddenly, workers run to rescue a man on the ground. He has seriously injured his eyes. John Muir is twenty-nine years old and has to be confined in a dark room: it is likely that he may remain blind. But miraculously, after months of an almost mystical convalescence, he regains his sight. This episode convinces him he's going to leave everything behind and embrace his lifelong dream: head south to meet the wilderness. Armed with only his courage, his youth, a magnifying glass and a botanical book, he treks hundreds of miles on foot from Indiana to Florida. Imagine an almost pristine wilderness, where only a few dangerous ex-soldiers from the South and former slaves thrown out of the old plantations roam… This biography also covers his other life-changing pioneering trek along the Sierra Nevada Trail which now bears his name. Here, in breathtaking vistas, is the inspiration he got to found the Sierra Club, create the first national parks, and become one of Americas first and foremost environmentalist champions. Exquisitely rendered in a sepia tone. Hardcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 176 pages, B&W. Cover price $24.99.
