Story and art by Chelsey Furedi.

For fans of Kiss Number 8 and On a Sunbeam, this debut graphic novel is a fast-paced time-travel adventure with a hint of romance that has garnered 1.5 million views as a Tapas webcomic.

Ren Mittal's last memory in the year 1996 is getting on a bus to visit his mystery pen pal, Georgia. When he wakes up in 2122, he thinks he might be hallucinating... he's not! Tech conglomerate Chronotech sponsors a time-travel program to help students in 2122 learn what history was really like... from real-life subjects who've been transported into the future...and Ren is one of them.

In 2122, Ren's life in the 1990s is practically ancient history-and Ren's not sure how to feel about that. On top of it all, he learns that his memory will be wiped of all things 2122 before he's sent back to the '90s.

Adding to Ren's complicated feels, he's forming a crush on his student guide, Mars. And when he crosses paths with the absolute last person he expected to see in the future, he has a bigger problem on his hands: what if Chronotech isn't the benevolent organization they claim to be, and he and his fellow subjects are in great danger?

Softcover, 6-in. x 8-in., 336 pages, full color.

Written by Arnold Drake and Leslie Waller. Art and cover by Matt Baker.

This "picture novel" has been called comics' first graphic novel.

This also has the distinction of being the first comic book work by writer Arnold Drake of Deadman fame. The story is very much in the pot-boiler/noir genre featuring Hal Weber, onetime crusading journalist, who is summoned to Copper City by his old flame Rust after the death of her husband, mining magnate and political heavyweight Arthur "Buck" Masson.

As editor of The Express, a newspaper with an anti-Masson stance secretly owned by Rust, Hal is drawn back to her even as he falls for her stepdaughter Audrey.

Story and art by Linda Sejic.

Hades and Persephone's love-struck misadventures!

The classic tale of Greek mythology, but 100 percent more awkwardly relatable. Hades is the officious, antisocial ruler of the Underworld. Persephone, daughter of Demeter, is an earth goddess of growth and renewal - they've been crushing on each other for the past two centuries. But when a festival (and a little liquid courage) present an opportunity to put an end to their Olympian will-they-won't-they, a meddlesome pantheon and several titanic mis-assumptions threaten to give every god in the sky the wrong impression... and leave their romance dead before it can bloom.

Softcover, 176 pages, full color.

Cover price $16.99.

Volume 2 - 1st printing. Story and art by Linda Sejic. The classic Greek tale turned relatable romantic comedy continues in Volume 2! Nothing says "opposites attract" like a Life Goddess and the King of the Dead—and after their truly Olympian meet-cute, who could blame Hades and Persephone for wanting a little time alone together? A night of exploring the Underworld brings them closer together, and it's all harmless flirting and long walks along the River Styx...until it turns out that Persephone can't leave, magically blocked from exiting the realm of the dead. It's as big a puzzle to her as it is to her antisocial new beau, but she and Hades will have to solve the mysterious imprisonment fast, because Persephone's absence has not gone unnoticed. In the mortal world and above, Persephone's mother, Demeter, sets out on a justified rampage of maternal aggression, determined to locate her missing daughter. The gods love their drama—but if they don't tread carefully, what starts as a simple misunderstanding may lead to the world as they know it flipped upside down. Softcover, 184 pages, full color.
