Comic books in 'Books'

1st printing. By Troy D. Smith. SHAOLIN BREW: RACE, COMICS, AND EVOLUTION OF SUPERHERO looks at how the comic book industry developed from a white perspective and how minority characters were and are viewed through a stereotypical white gaze. Further, the book explores how voices of color have launched a shift in the industry, taking nonwhite characters who were originally viewed through a white lens and situating them outside the framework of whiteness. The financial success of Blaxploitation and Kung Fu films in the early 1970s led to major comics publishers creating, for the first time, Black and Asian superhero characters who headlined their own comics. Author Troy D. Smith focuses on Asian, Black, and Latinx representation in the comic industry and how it has evolved over the years. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 288 pages, Text (with B&W Illustrations). Cover price $30.00.

By Michael Seth Starr.

In the early months of 1966, a handsome, hardworking thirty-five-year-old Canadian-born actor named William Shatner was cast as Captain Kirk in Star Trek, a science-fiction television series set to premiere that fall on NBC. Star Trek struggled for viewers and lasted only three seasons, but it found a huge, rabidly dedicated audience when it premiered in syndication following its cancellation, turning Shatner into a pop-culture icon and launching him on a career path he never could have imagined after graduating from McGill University.

As he approaches his ninetieth year, Shatner takes a comprehensive look at this singular performer, taking readers through William Shatner's remarkably bumpy career and the resilience Shatner has shown, time and again, in the face of overwhelming odds.

Earth's Children: Book 5 - 1st printing. By Jean M. Auel. The Shelters of Stone opens as Ayla and Jondalar, along with their animal friends, Wolf, Whinney, and Racer, complete their epic journey across Europe and are greeted by Jondalars people: the Zelandonii. The people of the Ninth Cave of the Zelandonii fascinate Ayla. Their clothes, customs, artifacts, even their homes—formed in great cliffs of vertical limestone—are a source of wonder to her. And in the woman Zelandoni, the spiritual leader of the Ninth Cave (and the one who initiated Jondalar into the Gift of Pleasure), she meets a fellow healer with whom to share her knowledge and skills. But as Ayla and Jondalar prepare for the formal mating at the Summer Meeting, there are difficulties. Not all the Zelandonii are welcoming. Some fear Aylas unfamiliar ways and abhor her relationship with those they call flatheads and she calls Clan. Some even oppose her mating with Jondalar, and make their displeasure known. Ayla has to call on all her skills, intelligence, knowledge, and instincts to find her way in this complicated society, to prepare for the birth of her child, and to decide whether she will accept new challenges and play a significant role in the destiny of the Zelandonii.

1st printing. By Mark A. Latham. It is 1894, and the news of a Transylvanian nobleman's death at the hands of a certain Professor Van Helsing is the talk of London. Unsatisfied at the acquittal of the professor, Mycroft Holmes asks Sherlock to investigate what truly led to the deaths of Lucy Westenra and the mysterious aristocrat. The newspapers are full of inconsistencies and wild supernatural theories, and as Holmes digs deeper, he suspects that those hailed as heroes are not what they seem. Why did five men really pursue an innocent Transylvanian nobleman to the ends of the earth? Who was really behind the murders that would have every man in England whispering "vampire" for years to come? The clues point to an innocent man framed and murdered for crimes he did not commit, and Holmes and Watson find themselves targeted at every turn, as what began as a quest to clear one man's name reveals a conspiracy that draws them to the mountains of Transylvania and the infamous Castle Dracula. The detective would have the truth, though he must overcome the genius of Abraham Van Helsing to get it. Softcover, 5-in. x 8-in., 288 pages, Text Only. Cover price $14.95.

1st printing. By Jason Zinoman. An enthralling behind-the-scenes account of horror's golden age, Shock Value draws on unprecedented access to the genre's major players to paint the definitive portrait of a cinematic revolution. By the late 1960s, horror was stuck in the past, confined mostly to drive-in theaters and exploitation houses. Shock Value tells the unlikely story of how an ambitious art form emerged when directors like Wes Craven, Roman Polanski, and John Carpenter plumbed their deepest anxieties to bring a gritty realism to their craft. Drawing on hundreds of interviews, Shock Value chronicles an era when groundbreaking masterpieces both conquered the Cineplex and redefined what it was to be afraid.
