    Satchel Paige Striking Out Jim Crow GN (2019 Hyperion Books) 2nd Edition 1-1ST


    (see more images)

    2nd Edition - 1st printing.

    Written by James Sturm. Art and cover by Rich Tommaso.

    Baseball Hall of Famer Leroy "Satchel" Paige (1906-1982) changed the face of the game in a career that spanned five decades. Much has been written about this larger-than-life pitcher, but when it comes to Paige, fact does not easily separate from fiction. He made a point of writing his own history... and then re-writing it. A tall, lanky fireballer, he was arguably the Negro League's hardest thrower, most entertaining storyteller and greatest gate attraction.

    Now the Center for Cartoon Studies turns a graphic novelist's eye to Paige's story. Told from the point of view of a sharecropper, this compelling narrative follows Paige from game to game as he travels throughout the segregated South. In stark prose and powerful graphics, author and artist share the story of a sports hero, role model, consummate showman, and era-defining American.

    Softcover, 96 pages, B&W (with Green shading).

    Shelters of Stone HC (2002 A Crown Novel) Earth's Children 1-1ST

    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. Hardcover, 754 pages, Text Only. Cover price $28.95.

    Hi! My name is Steve L. McEvil, and I am The Greatest Supervillain In The World! Or... I will be.

    It's hard to take over the planet when you still have a bedtime. Right now, my grandpa Tiberius McEvil is teaching me how to pull off my nefarious schemes. Though lately someone has been doing the job for me.

    These weird stones have appeared in town. Professor Stinger won't stop droning on about wormholes. And no one is more villainous than my new neighbor Vic Turry. That guy is just so... nice! Even Sierra, who rarely looks up from her geology books, is impressed by his good guy routine.

    But I'll show them all. No one can outsmart Steve L. McEvil! (Yeah, yeah, I know it rhymes.)
