1st printing. Story and art by Jon Macy. Djuna Barnes lived in a dazzling world filled with literary salons, innovative writing, and daring new art styles. But it didn't come easily. She managed to work her way out of an abusive childhood growing up in a polygamous rural utopian community on Long Island. She was determined to live an extraordinary life, and found herself socializing with the likes of James Joyce, Natalie Barney, Peggy Guggenheim, and T.S. Eliot in 1920s literary Paris. Called the most famous unknown of the century, Djuna Barnes stood out for her brilliant writing, her biting wit, and her unique style. Her novel, Nightwood is considered by some to be one of the greatest lesbian love stories ever written. But as the stock market crashed and the Lost Generation left Paris, her life began to unwind. A fascinating window into the life of a woman whose enormous literary talent and provocative attitude were both celebrated and disdained by the world. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 320 pages, PC.

A lot of how-to books assume that the reader is a good and wholesome person who wants to follow the law and not rip other people off. This is FOOLISH!

A biting comedic satire, this debut novel from Hollywood screenwriter Mark Perez pulls no punches, and everybody gets his fair share.

Featuring a cover and interior cartoon illustrations from former Flintstones character designer Scott Shaw!

Story and art by Gaku Kuze.

How did the cynical Uramichi end up hosting a TV show for small children? And how long is the studio going to let him keep teaching the kids the sorrow and exhaustion of life instead of, say, the ABCs?

This dark comedy manga started as a webcomic and became a bestseller across Japan -- with an anime coming soon!

Uramichi is a 31-year old children's TV host who leads physical exercises and teaches life lessons colored by one main theme: adulthood sucks. Alongside mascots played by a couple of bushy-tailed millennials, and a singing duo whose music embodies the notion of being kicked while you're down, Uramichi wades through the misery of working life, one sardonic comment at a time...

1st printing. By Jon Landau. Foreword by James Cameron. An uplifting and entertaining behind-the-scenes memoir about a life in film and the joy in solving problems with grace, kindness, and generosity, by the late film producer Jon Landau (Avatar, Titanic), written as he battled cancer and came to terms with his terminal diagnosis. Jon Landau, the Academy Award–winning film producer behind Titanic, Avatar, Alita: Battle Angel, Dick Tracy, and Honey, I Shrunk the Kids knew two things well: how to tell an unforgettable story and how to find solutions. So, when he found himself confronting his fate, a diagnosis of improbable odds, he began to problem solve, ensuring that everything he learned behind the camera would live on after he was gone. In his retrospective and advice-driven memoir, Landau shares behind-the-scenes stories about some of the greatest movies of our time and advice on how to live well while working in a notoriously all-consuming job by centering the things that mattered to him most—his love for his family and his dedication to his friends and creative partners—turning his own story into another blockbuster hit. The Bigger Picture is at once a deeply poignant memoir, a tribute to storytelling in its many forms, and a celebration of a life well lived, told from the third act. Imbued with Landaus trademark compassion, humanity, and humor, the stories he shares and the wisdom he imparts in The Bigger Picture will inspire, delight, and touch the hearts of readers for years to come.

Written by Jon Lee Anderson. Art by Jose Hernandez.

Che Guevara's legend is unmatched in the modern world. Since his assassination in 1967 at the age of 39, the Argentine revolutionary has become an internationally recognized icon, as revered as he is controversial. In Che: A Revolutionary Life, Jon Lee Anderson and José Hernández present the man behind the myth, creating a complex and human portrait of this passionate idealist. Che vividly transports us from young Ernesto's medical school days as a sensitive asthmatic to the battlefields of the Cuban revolution, from his place of power alongside Castro, to his disastrous sojourn in the Congo, and his violent end in Bolivia. Anderson and Hernández's Che makes us a witness to the revolutionary life and times of Che Guevara.
