1st printing. By Carlos Portela and Das Pastoras. Based in the same universe as "The Lion's Share" (from Metal Hurlant #1), Deicide is a bold new graphic album from Humanoids Publishing! Set in a world where gods walk the lands, and tribal villagers pay bloody sacrifices to a seemingly never-ending pantheon of good and evil deities, Deicide tells the story of what happens when one man stops worshipping the gods... and starts killing them! Angered by the unnecessary sacrifice of his love, Aldara, to the hideous Grand Madorak, Agon sets out on a journey to reclaim her soul. Along the way, Agon is aided by Beluch, a man with the head of a lion, as the two kill local gods and other monsters as they travel in search of Aldara's soul. A unique and raucous mix of action and art, from two of Spain's premiere graphic novelists! Softcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 48 pages, full color. Cover price $15.95.

Volume 1 - 1st printing.

Text by G.H. Janus.

Classic Italian film poster art is renowned as being among the most accomplished, creative and dynamic of its kind. From the post-war period through to the 1980s, Italian artists consistently produced posters with sumptuously stunning designs and imagery, not least in the science fiction and horror genres, for which compositions almost invariably included curvaceous female figures in jeopardy, juxtaposed with the iconography of fantasy and terror. Voluptuous Terrors collects 120 film posters by a wide range of acclaimed Italian artists, created for both indigenous and foreign-language film productions.
