Each of the cartoonists in the latest Typewriter anthology was provided with the beginning and ending lines of a comic, and their job was to connect them. These lines are shared to create a narrative corpse, where the last line of comic is the first line of the following comic. This follows through with the last line of the book being the first line, wrapping it all together with an infinite theme. It's not an anthology to be read in pieces, but as a whole.

Featuring twenty-four cartoonists from around the world, including domestic cartoonists Nick Bertozzi, Farel Dalrymple, Paul Hornschemeier, Kurt Wolfgang, Sammy Harkham, Aaron Renier, and many more.

1st Printing - Written by Douglas Ellis. During the 1920's and 1930's the girlie pulps proliferated, but were sold "under the counter" to protect innocent eyes. Published with the belief that "sex sells", each month they sailed forth, their covers adorned with bewitching vixens in various states of undress, showing as much as the law would allow - and often daring to show more. Talented artists such as Enoch Bolles, Peter Driben, Earle Bergey, Norman Saunders, H.J. Ward and Zoe Mozert created a body of gorgeous pinup art that, unlike the later magazine and calendar pin-up art of the 1940's, has generally remained hidden until now. Hardcover, Horizontal Format, 12" x 9", 208 pages, full color. Cover price $40.00.

1st Printing - Contained in this edition are the first three books of Edgar Rice Burroughs' brilliantly conceived Barsoom series - "A Princess of Mars", "The Gods of Mars", and "The Warlord of Mars" - The trilogy follows the saga of John Carter from his unexpected arrival on Barsoom through hair-raising adventures and startling discoveries from pole to pole of the planet.

Dark Horse 1st Edition - Volume 16 - 2nd and later printings. "Shrouded Moon!" Story and art by Stan Sakai. Throughout his journeys across feudal Japan, rabbit ronin Usagi has faced many dangers, crossed paths with some who have become his sworn enemies, and forged bonds of friendship stronger than any threat that might cross his path. Collected here are six tales featuring those companions Usagi holds dear. "Showdown" finds Usagi traveling with master swordsman Gen, as the two disrupt the dueling influences of a pair of corrupt families. Neko ninja clan leader Chizu finds herself betrayed and on the run in "Escape!" In "Three Seasons," Usagi is forced to defend himself with the most unlikely of weapons. The beautiful thief Kitsune's tragic history is revealed in "The Shrouded Moon" and "Kitsune's Tale." And in "Lesson in Courtesy," a hot- headed young Usagi incurs a debt that takes nearly a lifetime to repay! Once again, Stan Sakai masterfully weaves together the many threads of intrigue, adventure, humor, and heart in another endearing Usagi Yojimbo collection. Special introduction by Capt.

Before the duel even begins, Usagi becomes embroiled in a dispute between Koji and a local fencing school. Along the way, Usagi discovers a devastating secret - a weakness in Koji's style. It's a secret that could save his teacher's life, but at the cost of his own honor. This volume of Usagi Yojimbo includes the entire "Duel at Kitanoji" story, and a handful of other great shorts.
