The first half of this year sees the return of some classic properties in new forms, as well as a bevy of original titles that are sure to be sought after long into the future. IDW Publishing fires up the DeLorean to bring readers all-new adventures of Doc and Marty in Back to the Future: Untold Tales and Alternate Timelines, written by the film series’ creator Bob Gale! Those furious fowl are back, just in time for their close-up with the Angry Birds Movie Eggstravaganza. And a modern classic gets a deluxe presentation with the March: Book One Oversized Edition, presenting Civil Rights icon Rep. John Lewis’ life story in a new, prestige format. Image Comics turns the clock back with the debut of Saga creator Brian K. Vaughan’s Paper Girls, a unique tale of a small town invasion in 1988, while superstar writer and artist Skottie Young (Rocket Raccoon, Wizard of OZ) unleashes an all-new series of adventure and mayhem in I Hate Fairyland, an Adventure Time/Alice in Wonderland-style epic that smashes it’s cute little face against grown-up, Tank Girl/Deadpool-esque violent madness! And, Robert Kirkman takes Rick Grimes to places he never thought he could go — even after all he’s endured — in The Walking Dead Volume 25: No Turning Back. Jim Henson’s beloved educational children’s program brings the joy of learning to the comic shelf with Ape Entertainment’s Sesame Street: A Comical Comic Collection. Bestselling author Kieron Gillen presents a butt-kicking heroine in deep space in Mercury Heat Volume 1, while Dynamite’s fiercest females, including Vampirella, Dejah Thoris, Red Sonja, Purgatori, and Lady Zorro, face off against a legendary evil that threatens all their homelands in Swords of Sorrow: The Complete Saga, by Batgirl and Birds of Prey scribe Gail Simone. Nickelodeon’s green alien of doom (well, attempted doom) returns in comic form in Invader Zim Volume 1, even as Valiant Entertainment reveals the final fate(s) of their heroes and launches a line-altering event with Book of Death. Plus, Z2 Comics heralds a new level of all-ages fun with Welcome to Showside, and Liesel Van Helsing’s legacy draws her (back) into a final conflict with the deadliest vampire of all time in Zenescope Entertainment’s Van Helsing Vs. Dracula! Whether they’re looking for something tried and true or bold and new, your customers are guaranteed to find a title (or several) they’ll love with these new selections from our publishers.

But instead of spending time with the people he cares about, Nick Travers is searching for the killer of his friend, Fats, one of the best saxophone players you could find in the Crescent City. At first it appears that Fats took his own life, but Nick quickly discovers that the saxophone is missing from Fats’ apartment and he hits the streets to track it down.

Eventually, both agents left the FBI and began a new life together in peaceful anonymity. However, recent events prompted them to return to the Bureau and the X-Files. Since then, Mulder has seen his work with the FBI discredited and has found himself a fugitive from the U.S. government — all thanks to the mechanizations of a former ally, Gibson Praise, who now wields powers far beyond even what Mulder can imagine. Meanwhile, Scully remains at the FBI under the watchful eye of Gibson, as she works to prevent the government from falling further into his clutches and to clear her partner’s name.

Paracuellos is a work of great courage, created at a time when telling the truth about Spain’s political past could get one killed. It is arguably the most important graphic memoir ever created in comics. Carlos Giménez’s autobiographical account of the plight of children in post-World War II Fascist Spain has won virtually every comics award in Europe, including “Best Album” at the 1981 Angoulême Festival, and the “Heritage Award” at Angoulême in 2010. Format: Softcover, Black & White Size: 8.5 x 11 Page Count: 144 Recommended Age: Young Adult Genre: Historical In the late 1930s when Spanish fascists led by Franco, and aided by Hitler and Mussolini, overthrew the elected government, almost 200,000 men and women fell in battle, were executed, or died in prison. Their orphaned children — and others ripped from the homes of the defeated — were shuttled from Church-run “home” to “home” and fed a steady diet of torture and disinformation by a totalitarian state bent on making them “productive” citizens. Carlos Giménez was one of those children. In 1975, after Franco’s death, Carlos began to tell his story. Breaking the code of silence proved to be a milestone, both for the comics medium and for a country coming to terms with its past.

Their humanity will speak to everyone. The stories are heartbreakers, but Carlos never loses his sense of humor.” — William Stout RED STAR: DELUXE EDITION VOLUME 2 Christian Gossett’s landmark series redefined what a comic book could look like, while the story’s rich history and brutal world brought motion picture scope to the comics page.

The stories were serialized in 257 weekly magazines spanning five years and 37 storylines. These extremely rare comics have never been published in the United States. Star Trek fans will quickly note that the comics were not written with strict adherence to Star Trek’s core concepts. The Enterprise frequently traveled outside our galaxy, and the crew committed many violations of the never-mentioned Prime Directive along the way. Spock shouted most of his lines and often urged Kirk (or “Kurt,” as his name was misspelled in early issues) to shoot first and ask questions later. But, it’s precisely that “offness” that makes them so eminently readable and deserving of a proper reprinting. They’re unique in the annals of Star Trek and fans have gone without them for far too long.

The 1934 strips reprinted in this book fit anyone’s definition of “essential.” They show Krazy Kat at top speed, ever-changing, endlessly inventive, with language that sparkles with double meanings, and more, in lines such as “his malady drills me to my sole.” The year includes homages to old jokes and bricks, followed by playful references to sex, drink, and even drugs. The daily Krazy Kat strips are often Herriman’s most personal works and standouts in this year include Krazy Kat’s attempt to write a memoir and the Kat’s quietly waiting for the last leaf of “ottim” to fall (a tender scene that finds echoes in Charles Schulz’s drawing Linus admiring the last autumn’s leaf stubborn spirit). It could also be argued that the daily is more accessible to the new reader. Herriman biographer Michael Tisserand provides an insightful introduction.

The strips are reproduced one per page, giving readers an immersive experience, similar to the one newspapers readers had may decades ago — reading the comics one day at a time. MICHAEL WM. KALUTA: THE COMPLETE SKETCHBOOKS Michael Wm. Kaluta has been creating beautiful imagery for more than 40 years. Highlights of his career include what many consider to be the definitive version of The Shadow, the still in-progress Starstruck, and a myriad of stunning covers illustrated for nearly every comics publisher — as well as being part of the legendary art collective known simply as The Studio (along with Jeffery Catherine Jones, Barry Windsor-Smith, and Bernie Wrightson).

A massive asteroid named Xibalba is on collision course with the planet Earth – and if that wasn’t trouble enough, the asteroid is revealed to be a fragment of our solar system’s lost fifth planet, Marduk, destroyed 65 million years ago at the end of an epic cosmic war between the inhabitants of Marduk and immensely-powerful, life-hating, extradimensional “gods”. One of those beings is still alive, imprisoned on Xibalba, dreaming of its ultimate revenge on all that exists. When Nameless and his team-mates inadvertently unleash this malignant soul-destroying intelligence, the stage is set for a nightmarish, nihilistic journey to the outer reaches of human terror.

Cobblestone or concrete, state of mind or situation —streets are catalysts for culture; sources of knowledge and connection, invisible routes to hidden levels of influence. In worlds where magic is real, streets can be full of dangerous shadows or paths to salvation. Wizards walk such streets, monsters lurk in their alleys, demons prowl or strut, doors open to places full of delightful enchantment or seething with sorcery, and truly dead ends abound. This selection of stories — some tales may be rediscoveries, others never encountered on your fictional map — will take you for a wild ride through many realms of imagination.
