Written by Mike Tisserand. Art and cover by George Herriman.

The creator of the greatest comic strip in history finally gets his due-in an eye-opening biography that lays bare the truth about his art, his heritage, and his life on America's color line. A native of nineteenth-century New Orleans, George Herriman came of age as an illustrator, journalist, and cartoonist in the boomtown of Los Angeles and the wild metropolis of New York, and Herriman's Krazy Kat cartoons quickly propelled him to fame. Yet underlying his own lifewas a very private secret: known as "the Greek" for his swarthy complexion and curly hair, Herriman was actually African American. Michael Tisserand brings this little-understood figure to vivid life, paying homage to a visionary artist who helped shape modern culture.

Acclaimed writer Alan Moore once again joins forces with artist Kevin O'Neill for THE BLACK DOSSIER - a stunning original graphic novel that is the next chapter in the fantastic saga of THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY GENTLEMEN!

Based on the Story by Michael Moorcock. Adapted by Roy Thomas. Art by Mary Mitchell, Mark Pacella, Eric Vincent, and Nicholas Koening.

A stunning comic book adaptation of the classic Elric: Bane of the Black Sword novel by Michael Moorcock.

The Bane of the Black Sword is the fifth volume in the saga of Elric, the albino sorcerer who wields the terrible, soul-eating magical sword, STORMBRINGER.

This book is a comic adaptation of the collected, interconnected, five novellas of the original novel. The first four stories 'Old Wounds', 'Three Kings in Darkness', 'The King Beneath the Hill' and the 'Flame Bringers' tell of the continuing, eternal struggle of Elric against the elder gods of chaos as Elric finally brings Stormbringer home and finds peace at last in the arms of his true love Zarozinia.

Meanwhile in the last story, 'To Rescue Tanelorn', Elric's friend Rackhir the Red must travel through the five gates to seek aid from the Grey Lords in an effort to save the besieged city of Tanelorn from a horde of unimaginable evil.

1st printing. By Anders Nilsen. An EXPERIMENTAL COLLECTION OF ART, HUMOR AND PHILOSOPHY. Monologues for Calculating the Density of Black Holes takes up where the artist's first volume, Monologues for the Coming Plague, left off. Like Coming Plague, the Black Holes is a creatively experimental laboratory, comprising a collection of free flowing stream of consciousness gags, strips, and drawings that slowly coalesce into an unexpectedly compelling and complex narrative. The hints of story that came together in Monologues for The Coming Plague are extrapolated and expanded upon and grow to incorporate some of Nilsen's other outré strips from the anthology Mome, two of which are reprinted here in expanded form. The book is an audacious investigation into the rhythms of storytelling, the blurring of media, and an exercise in reconciling contrasts. It is playful, provacative and serious all at once - another tour de force by Anders Nilsen, impeccably and uniquely designed, in black and white and color.What Pedro Vieira de Moura on Ler BD wrote about Nilsen's Coming Plague could apply equally to The Density of Black Holes: "What looks like last minute thoughts or doodles are actually something extremely pure... Monologues' first half feels like a successful game of tetris: each page is like a new 'brick,' which adds a new element of significance to the whole, and after a while we realize a whole new layer of meaning that changes everything we had learned up to that point."

Series Edited by Ben Saunders. Written by Stan Lee and Don McGregor. Art by Jack Kirby, Joe Sinnott, Rich Buckler, Klaus Janson, Billy Graham, Craig Russell, Pablo Marcos, Dan Green, Virgilio Redondo, Bob McLeod, and Gil Kane. Introduction by Qiana J. Whitted. Foreword by Nnedi Okorafor.

Illustrated throughout, The Penguin Classics Marvel Collection presents specially curated comic book anthologies of the origin stories, seminal tales, and characters of the Marvel Universe to explore Marvels transformative and timeless influence on an entire genre of fantasy.

It is impossible to imagine American popular culture without Marvel Comics. For decades, Marvel has published groundbreaking visual narratives that sustain attention on multiple levels: as explorations of the relationship between power and responsibility; as metaphors for the experience of difference and otherness; as meditations on the pain of adolescence and the fluid nature of identity; as examinations of the meaning, and limits, of patriotism; as ironic juxtapositions of the cosmic and the quotidian; as resources for the understanding of political and social history; and as high watermarks in the artistic tradition of American cartooning. For the first time, these classic stories of some of the most iconic super heroes in the history of American comics are Penguin Classics. As Black Panther and the leader of the hidden African nation of Wakanda, King TChalla combines the legendary stealth of his namesake with the strength and intelligence to overcome his adversaries while earning the trust of his people.

This anthology includes the Panthers 1966 origin story by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, and the critically-acclaimed Panthers Rage from the characters 1970s solo series, by Don McGregor, Rich Buckler and Billy Graham; both series were produced during a turbulent moment in Americas struggle for civil rights, and reflect that struggle in different ways.

The introduction offers fresh insight into the thematic development of the Black Panther, along with the social and cultural influences that shape the world he inhabits.
