1st printing. Written by Tom Batiuk. Art and cover by Chuck Ayers. The Toledo Mud Hens, a farm team for the Detroit Tigers, once had a budding pitcher named Ed Crankshaft. At least that's how partners in cartooning, writer Tom Batiuk and artist Chuck Ayers, scripted the main character in Crankshaft. This enjoyable volume collects all of Crankshaft's baseball-themed exploits. Strike Four! The Crankshaft Baseball Book allows Batiuk and Ayers to explore a man's life and humorously and touchingly to examine how only barely touching the brass ring shaped it - and left him a little cranky. Softcover (Horizontal Format), 10-in. x 7-in., 240 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $24.95.

Volume 1 - 1st printing.

Written by Gakuto Mikumo. Art and cover by Manyako.

Kojo Akatsuki is an ordinary high-school boy - but when that high school is in the Demon District of Itogami City, "ordinary" means something rather different. He might be a vampire, for example. He might even be the most powerful vampire of all time. Middle schooler Yukina Himeragi, meanwhile, is the attack mage sent to observe him; a cute girl sent to observe a massively powerful vampire boy whose abilities activate whenever he gets aroused, on an island city full of all manner of supernatural individuals, each with their own shadowy agenda. What could possibly go wrong?

Softcover, 5-in. x 7 1/2., 192 pages, B&W.

NOTE: These are Japanese manga-style GNs and are meant to be read right-to-left.

It has been 15 years since the death of Mistress Nyx and the world in slowly recovering, but this isn't a world that we've ever seen before. This is a world where the natural, and the supernatural have merged to create a dangerous new place-A world very much in need of Vampirella.

Vampirella works as a special agent for the Danse Macabre on the most com- plex, and potentially violent of cases. Sepulcher City is where she spends most of her time, but often she is called out of the city, out into the world to deal with similar situations. Includes a gallery of covers.
