Here come the Cream Puffs! Nate and his baseball team, saddled with the most embarrassing moniker in Little League history, want to show the world they're not just a bunch of cupcakes. But it won't be easy. Their opponents mock them. The local sports section misprints Nate's name-three times. And now, on the day of the big game, illness and injuries have the team facing a crushing defeat... unless the unlikeliest Cream Puff of all can come in from the bullpen and save the day. Then, how does his soccer team manage to lose to a school with a sixty-game winless streak? What's he doing at the movies on a Friday night... with Gina? And why, oh why is one of his classmates (hint: she's Nate's dream girl) suddenly moving 3,000 miles away? It's all enough to make a sixth-grade superstar feel... well, not so super.

1st printing. Story and art by Lincoln Peirce. Middle school can be a hot mess-especially for sixth-grader Nate Wright. Whether he's bluffing his way through an oral report about...umm...some random war, peer-reviewing a classmate's story about cats, or writing a book report on a literary gem called The Cheerleader Chronicles, Nate's usually up to his eyeballs in stress. But our hero always finds ways to cope. Like bringing Spitsy to school as an emotional support dog. Or creating a graphic novel to (sort of) complete his math homework. Nate even authors a no-nonsense advice column with a title that says it all: Ask The Genius. So take a tip from P.S. 38's resident renaissance man: When problems start piling up, do what Nate does: Remain Calm! Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 176 pages, full color. All Ages Cover price $12.99.

Story and art by Lincoln Peirce.

Sixth grade can be a tension convention for Nate Wright. His baseball team's just been given the lamest name in Little League history; he's on the verge of becoming know-it-all Gina's personal servant for a day; and Spitsy, the closest thing he has to a dog of his own, is in love with a cat. Yup, Nate's up to his ears in stress. Luckily, the perfect remedy is close at hand: an empty plastic soda bottle. All Nate has to do is drum it gently against his head - thunka, thunka, thunka - and the pressures of dealing with Coach John, Mrs. Godfrey, and the terrifying Kim Cressly begin to fade away. Who knew an empty bottle could be so therapeutic?

Written by Chris Charlton, Artwork by David Hollenbach. Set in the late forties, a favored time for the crime/noir genre, Black of Heart follows a pair of detectives and the killer they are attempting to track down in Brooklyn, New York. Recently promoted to homicide detective, Drake Harper has seen some shit, and there are few he can turn to. A city full of criminals. A partner that drinks too much. A wife that cheats. Written by Chris Charlton, the owner of Assailant Comics, Black of Heart tells the dark and gripping if somewhat predictable story of a homicide detective in the last forties. A much used premise. A much used era. A much used genre. But Black of Heart is by no means bad. Since the crime/drama genre was popularized (especially in the last five to ten years), it seems like every murder mystery plot has been exhausted. 28 pages, B&W with partial color.

By Jeffery A Brown.

What do the comic book figures Static, Hardware, and Icon all have in common? Black Superheroes, Milestone Comics, and Their Fans gives an answer that goes far beyond "tights and capes." Milestone was the brainchild of four young black creators who wanted to part from the mainstream and do their stories their own way. Milestone focused on the African American heroes in a town called Dakota. Milestone's creators aimed for exceptional stories that addressed racial issues without alienating readers. Tracing the company's history and discussing its creators, their works, and the fans, this book gauges Milestone alongside other black comic book publishers, mainstream publishers, and the history of costumed characters.
