In the Edo era, young Jinta and his sister must flee their home, finding refuge in a mountain village.

For generations, a shrine has stood in the mountain village of Kadono, and for each generation the shrine has had an Itsukihime-its shrine maiden-and the maiden has had her guardian. During the Edo period, a young man named Jinta protects the town and the Itsukihime. When he confronts a strange demon in the nearby forest, it tells him that in the distant future a Demon God will threaten all people, everywhere, and it claims that the the Demon God's rise to power springs from this very time and place, in the village of Kadono. So begins the centuries-spanning journey of a man tainted by demons, hunting through time to seek justice for what he's lost, and to find a reason to keep on fighting.

Written by Meng Xi Shi. Art by Me.Mimo and Furifuricchin. Cover by Me.Mimo. Translated byFaelicy.

The beloved danmei/Boys' Love wuxia novel series from China that inspired the donghua (animated series) streaming in English! In this historical tale, a Daoist martial artist must begin a journey of healing and self-reflection as he resists the temptations of the powerful leader of a demonic sect.

Shen Qiao is a devout Daoist priest who has spent his life honing his skills and spirit, leading his sect with martial talent, beauty beyond measure, and an earnest heart. His polar opposite, Yan Wushi, leads one of the most powerful demonic sects and is said to be unrivaled in his strength and cunning. Yan Wushi believes in the inherently selfish nature of all people-himself included-and that nobody is above committing dark deeds for their own benefit.

When a fight leaves Shen Qiao injured, blind, and with hazy memories, Yan Wushi takes in the defeated sect leader with a dark plan: test the limits of the man's patience and faith in others to lure him onto the demonic path. Little does he know that he is about to meet the first immovable force of his life, and that two hearts can connect in unexpected ways.

Tim's Store For Boys Promotional Illustrated Booklet. Not dated (Inside front cover ad is for July6 1929 issue of Knicker Magazine). Full title as appears on cover is - Tim's Trip to Mars in his Famous Shuttle-Shoot Airplane.

Some background first - Tim was a company symbol, rather like Buster Brown, for the clothing company Townsend-Ueberchein. Each month, the company published a mini comic starring Tim called The Knicker (later changed to Tim's Official Magazine) which contained comic strips, cartoons, text stories, as well as adverts for their clothing. The term Pie-Eater appears to be old slang in the gist of...a hip kid. Tim's Trip to Mars appears to be a stand-alone booklet from Tim's Stores For Boys featuring an illustrated text story starring Tim.

Mini booklet, wraparound cover art, paper cover, 3 7/8" x 6 3/4", mono blue color, 16 pages.
