    1st printing. Story and art by Noah Van Sciver and Marlena Myles. Cover by by Noah Van Sciver. Introduction by Lee Francis IV. Postscript by Deondre Smiles. Did you know that a mainstay of American folk culture was in fact created as an advertising ploy? Few people realize that Paul Bunyan, the legendary lumberjack, and his blue ox are the product of corporate marketing by a highly industrialized industry. Cartoonist Noah Van Sciver shows us the myth creation as real life marketing man extraordinaire W.B. Laughead spins ever more wondrous tall tales. Van Sciver's story is bracketed by rich contributions from contemporary Native artists and storytellers with a very different connection to the land that the Bunyan myths often conceal. Readers will see how a lumberjack hero, a quintessential American fantasy, captures the imagination but also serves to paper over the seizure of homeland from First Peoples and the laying bare of America's northern forests. It's a tall tale with deep roots... in profit-making! Softcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 48 pages, full color. All Ages Cover price $11.99.

    Written by Christian Staebler and Sonia Paoloni. Art and cover by Thibault Balahy.

    Experience the riveting, powerful story of the Native American civil rights movement and the resulting struggle for identity told through the high-flying career of west coast rock n' roll pioneers, Redbone.

    You've heard the hit song "Come and Get Your Love" in the movie Guardians of the Galaxy, but the story of the band behind it is one of cultural, political, and social importance.

    Brothers Pat and Lolly Vegas were talented Native American rock musicians that took the 1960s Sunset Strip by storm. They influenced The Doors and jammed with Jimmy Hendrix before he was "Jimi," and the idea of a band made up of completely Native Americans soon followed.

    Determined to control their creative vision and maintain their cultural identity, they eventually signed a deal with Epic Records in 1969. But as the American Indian Movement gained momentum the band took a stand, choosing pride in their ancestry over continued commercial reward.Created with the cooperation of the Vegas family, painstaking steps were taken to ensure the historical accuracy of this important and often overlooked story of America's past.

    Part biography and part research journalism, Redbone provides a voice to a people long neglected in American history.

    Experience the riveting, powerful story of the Native American civil rights movement and the resulting struggle for identity told through the high-flying career of west coast rock n' roll pioneers, Redbone.

    You've heard the hit song "Come and Get Your Love" in the movie Guardians of the Galaxy, but the story of the band behind it is one of cultural, political, and social importance.

    Brothers Pat and Lolly Vegas were talented Native American rock musicians that took the 1960s Sunset Strip by storm. They influenced The Doors and jammed with Jimmy Hendrix before he was "Jimi," and the idea of a band made up of completely Native Americans soon followed.

    Determined to control their creative vision and maintain their cultural identity, they eventually signed a deal with Epic Records in 1969. But as the American Indian Movement gained momentum the band took a stand, choosing pride in their ancestry over continued commercial reward.Created with the cooperation of the Vegas family, painstaking steps were taken to ensure the historical accuracy of this important and often overlooked story of America's past.

    Part biography and part research journalism, Redbone provides a voice to a people long neglected in American history.

    Softcover, 160 pages, full color.

    Ringmaster Vince McMahon and the Unmaking of America SC (2024 Atria Books) 1-1ST


    (see more images)

    1st printing. By Abraham Riesman. Even if you've never watched a minute of professional wrestling, you are living in Vince McMahon's world. In his four decades as the defining figure of American pro wrestling, McMahon was the man behind Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, John Cena, Dave Bautista, Bret "The Hitman" Hart, and Hulk Hogan, to name just a few of the mega-stars who owe him their careers. For more than twenty-five years, he has also been a performer in his own show, acting as the diabolical "Mr. McMahon" - a figure who may have more in common with the real Vince than he would care to admit. Accessible to anyone, regardless of wrestling knowledge, RINGMASTER is an unauthorized, independent, investigative chronicle of Vince McMahon's origins and rise to supreme power. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 8-in., 512 pages, Text. Cover price $20.99.

    Road to America collects for the first time in complete form one of the best and most underrated comic "novellas" of the 1990's.

Cartoonist Baru brilliantly documents an impoverished boxer's rise to fame amidst the chaos surrounding him and his family, from the slums of his hometown in Algeria to the bright lights of Paris.

    Softcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11 1/2-in., 48 pages, full color. Mature Readers

    1st printing.

    By Lauren R. O'Connor.

    Debuting just a few months after Batman himself, Robin has been an integral part of the Dark Knight's history and, from the outset, has both reflected and reinforced particular images of American adolescence. Closely reading several characters who have "played" Robin over the past eighty years, Robin and the Making of American Adolescence reveals the Boy (and sometimes Girl!) Wonder as a complex figure through whom mainstream culture has addressed anxieties about adolescents in relation to sexuality, gender, and race.

    Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 198 pages, Text (with full color photos).
