Who is behind them and why?

Stories and Art by Dave Cook. Splatter Comix is a twist between the camp of old pre-Code horror books and the edginess of today's splatter movies. Each tale is introduced with sly humor and bad puns by narrator Necro Phil -- a tongue-in-cheek, rock 'n' roll, vampire punk. The first story, "Refuse Garden," concerns a sanitation worker whose partner is murdered by a deranged homeless man. Driven by revenge, our "hero" decides to clean up the streets by removing the human garbage. Permanently. That is, until the garbage decides to fight back. The second story, "Wormy," offers a new twist on the 98-pound weakling. In this case, the weakling -- after having sand kicked in his face -- decides to sell his soul for the body he wants. The problem is, while the weakling gets revenge, his body grows out of control with eye-popping consequences. 32 pages, B&W with Red. Mature Readers. Cover price $2.95.

Though the Jedi strike force completed its deadly mission into Yuuzhan Vong territory, the price of success was tragedy: not everyone made it out alive. In a daring getaway, hotshop pilot Jaina Solo stole an enemy ship, taking along her fellow survivors--and leaving behind a huge piece of her heart. With the enemy in hot pursuit, Jaina is forced to seek haven in the unprotected, unfriendly Hapes Cluster, where the Jedi are held responsible for a past tragedy--and where the royal family has grim plans for their famous Jedi guest. Even more sinister are the intentions of the Yuuvhan Vong, desperate to capture Jaina for a hideous sacrifice. Grief-stricken and obsessed with revenge, Jaina is blind to these threats--and to the overpowering evil dangerously close to consuming her. In the coming conflagration, Jaina will be fighting not for victory or vengeance, but fore her very being . . . Hardcover, 5 1/2-in. x 8-in., 302 pages, Text Only. NO Cover Price.

First printing. Written by Joe Garner. For over 50 years, we have watched as television has entertained, informed, comforted, and thrilled us. We watched as sitcoms evolved from I Love Lucy to All in the Family: at first merely amusing, then becoming reflections of society and pushing the cultural boundaries. We watched President Kennedy, the first-born of television and politics, unite us in the optimism of his "new frontier" and in the grief of his assassination. Television has taken us to the scene of mass celebrations, such as the wedding of Lady Diana to Prince Charles, to calamities in Munich and New York, and into frightening fields of battle in Vietnam and Iraq. Television exposed the imperfections of the jurors' box in the trial of O.J. Simpson and the ballot box in Election 2000. Television put us in the front row when Hank broke Babe's record, when the U.S. hockey team beat the Soviets in Lake Placid, and when the NFL spilled over from Sunday afternoons to Monday nights. Over 50 years of memories-the stars, the programs, and the events stored in our hearts and imaginations like treasured heirlooms-are found in this new hardcover multimedia book from veteran New York Times best-selling author Joe Garner. In Stay Tuned, he has gathered 36 landmark moments from news, sports, and entertainment in a riveting anthology. Each story comes to life through detailed, behind-the-scenes accounts and firsthand anecdotes, and is illustrated with hundreds of poignant black-and-white and color photographs. Hardcover, 10 1/2 x 11-in, PC/PB&W. Comes with one DVD and two audio CD's.
