By Robert Williams. Introduction by Gwynned Vitello. Preface by Robert Williams. Postscript by Darius A. Spieth Ph.D.

In the early 1990s, Robert Williams persuaded the publisher of skateboard magazine Thrasher to start an art magazine. Juxtapoz magazine launched in 1994 and shook the art world establishment by presenting the popular underground.

These art forms were celebrated, and the magazine found a wide and hungry audience. With each issue came an insightful editorial, penned by the godfather of lowbrow, Mr. Bitchin himself, Robert Williams. These essays, 22 years' worth and a few more, are collected in "Ink, Blood, and Linseed Oil." They are presented for your enjoyment, bewilderment, and for furtherance of the discussion of the philosophy of art.

Introduction by Juxtapoz publisher Gwynned Vitello and a postscript by Dr. Darius A. Spieth of Louisiana State University.

Written by Kami Garcia. Art by Gabriel Picolo, Jon Sommariva, and Emma Kubert.

When a tragic accident takes the life of seventeen-year-old Raven Roth's foster mom - and Raven's memory - she moves to New Orleans to live with her foster mother's family and finish her senior year of high school.

But as she grows closer to her foster sister, Max, her new friends, and Tommy Torres, a guy who accepts her for who she is now, Raven has to decide if she's ready to face what's buried in the past...and the darkness building inside her.

From New York Times bestselling author E. Lockhart (Genuine Fraud, We Were Liars) and artist Manuel Preitano (The Oracle Code) comes a new Gotham City superhero in this exciting YA graphic novel.

Seventeen-year-old Willow Zimmerman has something to say. When shes not on the streets advocating for her community, shes volunteering at the local pet shelter. She seeks to help all those in need, even the stray dog shes named Lebowitz that follows her around. But as much as she does for the world around her, she struggles closer to home — taking care of her mother, recently diagnosed with cancer. In desperation, she reconnects with her estranged uncle Edward, and he opens the door to an easier life. Through simple jobs, such as hosting his private poker nights with Gotham Citys elites, she is able to keep her family afloat—and afford critical medical treatments for her mother.

Then one night, Willow and Lebowitz collide with the monstrous Killer Croc and get injured, waking up able to understand each other. But when Willow discovers that Edward and his friends are actually some of Gothams most corrupt criminals, she must make a choice: remain loyal to the man who kept her family together, or use her new powers to be a voice for her community.

1st printing. Written by Deborah Noyes. Art and cover by M. Duffy. From 1692 to 1693, fear reigned in the small village of Salem, Massachusetts. The night Abigail Williams and Betty Paris first accused their servant of witchcraft was only the beginning. Several more accusations would follow suit, sparking a widespread panic that consumed Salem in one of the longest cases of witch trials in America, where more than twenty innocent lives were lost, and mistrust ran amok. The community was in ruins, from the afflicted who fanned the flames of superstition to the judges who used their power unjustly and the accused who were falsely charged and hanged in consequence. In the absence of due process and with hysteria abounding, no one in Salem was safe. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 8-in., 256 pages, full color. Cover price $17.99.
