Looking Ahead With Optimism Into 2013
The Mayan Apocalypse! Hurricane Sandy! The Fiscal Cliff! With 2012
coming to a tumultuous close, DBD looks optimistically ahead into
2013, ripe with promise and potential.
Dark Horse champions the cause in heroic fashion with epic offerings
from proven chart-busters including Avatar: The Last Airbender — The
Promise Library Edition, Dragon Age: The World of Thedas Volume 1,
and The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia, while dipping into the
comics industry talent pool of legendary and up-and-coming luminaries
like Brian Wood’s The Massive, Will Eisner’s Fagin the Jew, and Kazuo Koike and Goseki
Kojima’s groundbreaking, graphic-fiction masterpiece, Lone Wolf and Cub Omnibus.
Continuing the winning trend, IDW takes stock in tried-and-true licenses with Doctor Who
Series 3 Volume 1, The Lone Ranger Volume 1 Omnibus, and Rocketeer: Cargo of Doom.
Plus, justice meets the mean-streets of Mega-City One with Judge Dredd Volume 1,
Countdown to Darkness with the prequel to the much-anticipated sequel to J.J. Abrahams’
blockbuster Star Trek movie re-launch, and tap into the magic of My Little Pony Volume 1!
Image Comics swings the pendulum towards the Apocalyptic with the ultimate confrontation
between man’s all-consuming need to conquer and the supreme power of the Divine Spirit
in Krishna: A Journey Within. Meanwhile, it’s survival of the fittest in Robert Kirkman’s
The Walking Dead Volume 18, and get Happy! in Grant Morrison’s psychedelic twilight
world of casual murder, soulless sex, eczema, and betrayal.
Hope springs eternal as Ape Entertainment takes us on an engaging stroll down Sesame
Street in I is for Imagination, Oni Press and Bryan Lee O’Malley fight the good fight as the
utterly astounding republication of the Scott Pilgrim epic continues, and Alan Moore and
Kevin O’Neill revisit the Victorian milieu of League of Extraordinary Gentlemen as Jules
Verne meets H.P. Lovecraft in Top Shelf’s Nemo: Heart of Ice!
With Doom and Gloom squarely in our rearview mirror, Winter’s huff and bluster waning,
and Spring just ‘round the bend, rest assured that DBD and its publishing pioneers will help
make the transition into the New Year festive and bright!
Enjoy!,

JAN - JUNE 2013
• San Antonio, 1976: Eric Layton, desperate for cash, left college
behind to dive into the world of pro-wrestling. From there, it
was an easy slide into the underbelly of the rasslin’ biz, where
the box office and concession stand make for an easy way to
launder drug money. When Eric is pinched by the police and
forced to flip on his boys, he’s stuck between the cops and the
crooks — and the idea that he’ll escape with his life is looking
less realistic than a pro-wrestling match.
• 1970’s Wrestling scene meets a brutally organized mob mentality.
KEY SELLING POINTS:
FLEE
• Rigby Pinkerton was your average bug exterminator stuck in a
dead end job and living with his plastic surgery addicted mom.
But, when two warring alien races crash land in his backyard
and a new sexy neighbor moves in next door, Rigby has no
other choice but to step up and be the hero he never knew he
was. With the help of a lone alien warrior and his wisecracking
robot, Rigby is the only one that stands to save three worlds
from galactic doom — whether he knows it or not! Get ready
for an Alien invasion unlike anything you’ve expected. Prepare
to FLEE!
SPIRIT WINDOW
• In post-Katrina New Orleans, everything seems to be getting
back on track. For former Detective Jake Rubio, the tragedy
brought a new career as a shoe shiner on Bourbon Street and a
prosthetic hand, replacing the limb lost in the anarchy of
Katrina. One thing that hasn’t changed are Jake’s memories of
an unsolved murder. When a larger mystery surfaces tied to the
death of a local fortune teller, Jake will need the help of an ageold inter-dimensional hitman service well known to locals as the
Spirit Window. Who better to track down the person responsible than the spirit of the victim herself?

SIMMONS COMICS ANTHOLOGY
VOLUME 1
• Stan Kidderick, Ninja P.I. is not really a ninja at all. In fact, he’s
not even a very good private investigator. He can’t actually use
the sword he carries around and he only wears a ninja mask,
which he never takes off. He seems quite strange, but he’s just
a man who coped with having everything he loved in life taken
away from him, by convincing himself he was meant to fight
crime as a ninja detective. Yes, he’s lonely, and yes, he’s only
hiding from the pain of his former life. But he’s busy working
whatever cases he can get using his true calling and talent in
life...computers.
• Days Missing: Enox concludes the saga of The Steward, a mys-
terious being whose ability to “fold” days of time has resulted
in critical human events being absent from our historical record.
Their existence is not remembered…but the occurrences of
these days have forever changed the course of our evolution.

really sealed it for me was the dialogue. It is so well-written,
believable, endearing, and amusing that it’s hard not to love
Doug and Bat. Whether it’s Doug correcting Bat’s grammar or
keeping him from swearing, or the sass of the Delancey gang
boss, the characters are the best thing about The Grave Doug
Freshley.” — The Quarter Bin

STRANGE ATTRACTORS
• In 1978, Dr. Spencer Brownfield saved New York City from
itself, bringing the city back from the verge of collapse and ruin.
And for thirty years, his small, minute, and unnoticed adjustments to the city’s systems have, a la: the Butterfly Effect, kept
the city afloat. Or so he claims to Heller Wilson, a young graduate student that Dr. Brownfield has chosen as his successor.
But are Dr. Brownfield’s claims about “complexity math” and
its application to the city’s patterns of life real, or are they the
ravings of a man broken by the death of his wife and daughter,
desperate to find some kind of control over the world around
him? Strange Attractors is about control; what you can control
in your life and what you can’t, and how important it is to recognize the difference.

innocuous. But with the touch of a button, the door of
the case lifts, accompanied by lights and Star Wars
sound effects. The secrets within are revealed — the
Book of Sith slides into view.
The Sith have existed in the galaxy for centuries,
lurking, waiting for their chance to seize control. As
various Sith Lords emerged and rose to power, they
recorded their thoughts, exploits, and plots for Sith
control of the galaxy. When they fell, their knowledge vanished with them forever. Or so it seemed.
Over the years, these writings were passed among
numerous Sith and Jedi, who added their comments
to the pages. In his quest for domination, Darth
Sidious tracked down what remained of five pivotal
Sith texts written by his most powerful predecessors.
Then, drawing on the knowledge within the compiled pages, he wrote a sixth text — his own manifesto. Together, these documents, along with several
collected objects associated with them, shed light on
the philosophy, achievements, and failures of the Sith
Order. For years, this collection remained hidden,
existing as legend only. But now all who are tempted
may unlock the Book of Sith and delve into the dark
side.
From the creators of The Jedi Path, in collaboration
with Lucasfilm, Book of Sith reveals the mystery and
madness of the dark side — while introducing new
characters, history, as well as sinister insights into
what it means to be a Sith Master.

Force, he begins to feel that perhaps what has been setting him apart from the other clones is his own connection to the Force. As the investigation progresses through
a booby-trapped, abandoned Jedi Temple, this one clone
will discover who he is and also see where he came from

TOKYO BABYLON BOOK 1
Glamour has two meanings: the modern one of style, and the
ancient one of sorcery. Tokyo Babylon is the realm of both! It’s
1991, the last days of Japan’s bubble economy, and money and elegance run through the streets like rivers of neon. So do the currents
of darkness beneath them — obsession, greed, and exploitation,
nourishing evil spirits that only the arts of the onmyoji — Japan’s
legendary occultists — can combat. The two most powerful
remaining onmyoji are in the unlikely guises of a handsome young
veterinarian, Seishiro, and the teenage heir to the ancient Sumeragi
clan, Subaru — just a couple of guys who Subaru’s sister Hokuto
has decided are destined to be...a couple!
• Tokyo Babylon is CLAMP’s first great manga epic and a prequel
to the events of CLAMP’s X.
• Tokyo Babylon is a pioneer BL (boys’ love) manga title in the West.

THE MASSIVE VOLUME 1:
BLACK PACIFIC
What does it mean to be an environmentalist after the world has already
ended? For Callum Israel, leader of the Ninth Wave oceanic activist group,
this is the question that cuts to the core of his identity. In a post-war, postCrash, post-disaster, post-everything world, nothing is certain and ideologies
are meaningless. But the mission remains: search this crumbling world for
answers to the cause of the Crash, and keep up the hunt for their missing sister ship, The Massive, lost and adrift in the chaos. Brian Wood’s new, sprawling, postapocalyptic epic takes the crew of the Kapital from the flooded remnants of Hong Kong to Unalaska, with stops in Antarctica and Mogadishu, as
post-Crash ethics and economics are explored across a broken world.

The Unauthorized Tarzan is a classic run of Tarzan
comics, originally created and published without authorization, reprinted with the blessing of the Burroughs
estate for the first time! In the 1960s, believing Tarzan to
have fallen into the public domain, Charlton Comics
enlisted Joe Gill (Flash Gordon, House of Mystery) and
Sam Glanzman (Hercules, Our Army at War) to create a
new comics version of the Lord of the Jungle. Only four
issues were produced before Charlton was forced to end
the series, and much of the original print runs were
destroyed. Now, this unique and beautiful take on Tarzan
is available at last and has been given Dark Horse’s
archival treatment, along with a selection of Glanzman’s
Tarzan comic-strip art!

gift for murder. But there’s more at play than a simple
search-and-destroy mission. Complicating matters is
the return of the King of the Vampires, Dracula —
more powerful than ever before, and determined to
consecrate an unholy pact with ancient, unknowable
forces that even the lords of Chaos and Order wisely
fear. War is on the horizon, and only one who has worn
the Crown of Worms can sit upon a Throne of Skulls.
Old foes are reborn, alliances are broken, and nothing
in Vampirella’s world will ever be the same!

private investigator whose clients require a detective
with supernatural expertise — in other words, he’s a
wizard for hire. The Windy City has been hit with an
outbreak of savage werewolf attacks — a case made
even more chaotic and challenging by the fact that
Harry’s uncovered no less than three lycanthropic
groups, each seemingly in conflict with one another.
On top of that, Harry’s lost the faith of his one friend
and ally among the Chicago Police Department,
Karrin Murphy. Now she, along with werewolves and
hostile FBI Agents, hunts Harry while he races against
the rise of the next full moon to discover who — or
what — is behind the string of murders!

debut in the pages of Vampirella, the mysterious
crimefighter called Pantha has endured since the
1960s. This feline femme fatale has remained relatively obscure over the years, but she always returns to
give horror-action fans something scary (and a little
sexy) to sink their fangs into. This new story presents
Pantha as the last living avatar of the Egyptian goddess
Sekhmet. Commanded by Ra to walk the earth for all
eternity as atonement for Sekhmet’s transgressions in
life, Pantha seeks out evil in all its guises. With the
power to transform from a beautiful woman into a feral
panther, this is one super-heroine who is much more
than just a pretty face. Pantha also wields the Scarab of
Atum-Ra; forged from the ancient god’s tears, this
amulet is an object of great power that many forces
would kill to possess. The Scarab can destroy cities,
corrupt souls, and open doorways to other dimensions.
Writer Brandon Jerwa and artist Pow Rodrix clearly
enjoy playing with these characters, delivering a pulpy,
Roger Corman-esque adventure that brings all the necessary action, intrigue, and characterization that comic
readers crave…without forgetting that comics can be
fun, too.

ney has been leading to something greater still. Her
small kingdom threw off the shackles of an empire only
to see terrorism, revolt, and finally the brutality of
Thulsa Doom. Starved, shocked, and near desperation,
Sonja’s people now openly revolt against her rule. She
turns to the only wealthy Baron to levy taxes and feed
the people, but he has a better idea — attack the empire!
Open assault on the Emoran Empire is suicide, but to
Sonja war is a form of art. Through the skillful use of
deception, assassination, and manipulation, she plunges
the fiefdoms of Emora into confusion and chaos, while
feeding her tiny kingdom off Emoran crops. This is only
the first act, her real designs are on the crown itself, and
the reformation of the corrupt Empire, with her atop the
throne as Empress Sonja!

Williams has been at war with the armies of darkness.
He’s been transported across time to fight the evil dead,
both in the past and in the future. He’s traveled across
dimensions, and has even been to Hell and back. But
this is the first time that he’s met another Ashley
Williams, one from an alternate reality who believes
that they are the Chosen One...and is also a woman.
Enter Ashley K. Williams, a “Smart-Stop” convenience
store clerk who saw her boyfriend “infected” and turned
into one of the evil dead by an object from outer space.
Failing to possess her as well, the alien object displaced
her back in time to ancient Egypt. After seeing his

across time and space, driven by a singular thought:
“Find Ashley J. Williams.”
For the first time ever, these two are brought together to
unite against the greatest threat they have ever faced.

everything she wants — her crusade against her murderous Uncles is over and done with and she’s successfully fended off attacks by everyone from war profiteers
to waffle salesmen. There’s just one tiny fly in the ointment: Detective Elaine Pruitt, Homicide. Jennifer Blood

That was a mistake. Now Pruitt’s out of her coma and
out to nail Jennifer Blood to the wall once and for all!
She’s not the only ghost from Jen’s past returning to
haunt her present, as an old flame of her husband’s reenters his life. For anyone else’s family, it’d be the makings of a sordid suburban psychodrama — but this is
Jennifer Blood’s family, and she’ll go as far as she has
to to preserve it! Finally, there’s trouble from a third
corner — Jen’s first and most foolish mistake, the one
that’s been hiding in plain sight for the whole series.
The one that’s going to destroy Jen Fellows...and God

JOHNNY HAZARD THE NEWSPAPER
SUNDAYS VOLUME 1 (1944-1946)
• One of the truly great Sunday action/adventure newspaper strips
of the 1940s is finally being reprinted in a deluxe archival edition. Frank Robbins’ masterpiece, Johnny Hazard, set the standard for action and adventure, and remains unequaled. Comics
historian Ron Goulart observed that with Johnny Hazard,
Robbins, “…staged his action like the movies. He had a lushly
inked style, rich in black.” The Sunday version of the strip
which ran different story lines from the dailies (also being
offered by Hermes Press) features non-stop, wartime action
with stories which are exciting today as they were when they
were created.
• Companion to Hermes Press’ Johnny Hazard dailies.

• Our first two volumes proved so popular that the Blondie
series continues into the late 1930s! This third volume
picks up the continuity as Chic Young proves that he can
take a set piece and make us truly care for the familiar
cast of characters — and even look forward to the recurring gags. We cringe in anticipation of Dagwood running
into the mailman, Mr. Dithers turning him down for a
raise, and the door opening to reveal an obnoxious salesman. Meanwhile, Baby Dumpling grows into a toddler
and causes as much havoc around the house as does his
father, Dagwood makes his impossibly tall midnight
sandwiches, while Daisy the dog looks on in wonder.
And there’s Blondie in the middle of it all, keeping the
family on its toes.

LOAC Essentials 1: Baron Bean
(ISBN 1-61377-442-7)
•
In the late 1910s, Sidney Smith
developed a formula of the daily
strip that would make The
Gumps one of the most popular
comics of the 1920s and himself
one of the richest cartoonists of his
day. By the end of the decade
Sidney Smith’s The Gumps had
secured a huge and loyal audience
with a decade of melodrama,
adventure, mystery, and comedy. So devoted were his readers, in fact, that they regularly wrote in to
offer advice for his characters’ love lives and business decisions and they generally treated the characters as friends and family members. In 1928-29, with the launching of what would be his most
famous story, “The Saga of Mary Gold,” Smith’s relationship to his readers would be tested as never
before. Its heartbreaking conclusion would change comics forever. Here for the first time since the
story made headlines across America in the spring of 1929, IDW reprints the saga that Hogan’s Alley
magazine called “One of the Ten Biggest Events in Comics History” — a tale that has lost none of
its power to captivate readers in the 21st Century.
LOAC Essentials reprints, in yearly volumes, the rare early daily newspaper strips that are essential
to comics history, seminal strips that are unique creations in their own right, while also significantly
contributing to the advancement of the medium.
• 42-year run in newspapers from February 12, 1917 until October 17, 1959
• By 1919, it’s popularity prompted animated film adaptations, and in 1920-21, more than 50 animated
shorts were produced.
• Between 1923 & 1928, Universal Pictures produced at least four dozen Gumps two-reel comedies starKEY SELLING POINTS:

• Welcome
to the Land of Ever-Night. Bafflerog
Rumplewhisker is an evil wizard, from a long line of
evil wizards. It’s his job to maintain the darkness
spells that keep his corner of Ever-Night as dark and
gloomy as the rest of it, and to find the long-lost
BOOK OF WORSE, which holds magical spells that
can crush the forces of goodness and light forever.
There’s only one problem. His heart’s just not in it.
Master storytellers Kurt Busiek and David T. Wenzel
invite you to join Bafflerog and his companions —
Gumpwort, an enchanted toad who was once a wizard himself, and Muddle, the third son of a woodcutter who’s convinced he’ll one day be king — as they
make a journey that may mean the end of everything.
Or maybe... it could mean something else.

• What do you get when you throw three murderers
into one prison cell together? Well, when those characters happen to be based on the likenesses of
celebrities Frank Vincent (Goodfellas, Raging Bull,
The Sopranos), Marky Ramone (formerly of The
Ramones) and Brea Grant (Heroes, Dexter), you can
bet that the outcome will be anything but ordinary.
From the creator of IDW’s hit series Crawl to Me
(now in development to become a feature film),
comes Alan Robert’s Killogy, an off-the-wall, genrebusting mash-up of crime, dark comedy, and horror.

MAXIMUM MINIMUM WAGE HC
•
JAN - JUNE 2013
its run in the mid-’90s, Minimum Wage
racked up critical accolades and a devoted following,
numbering among its fans Patton Oswalt, Marc
Maron, Dana Gould, Scott Aukerman, Margaret Cho,
Janeane Garofalo, David Cross, and more. Why?
Because each page boasted sticky, uncomfortable
truths drenched in bleakly familiar humor. It was
“cringe comedy” before the phrase had been coined,
presaging squirmy shows like Louie and Girls. Set in
a New York so real you can practically smell it (so
claimed Mike Mignola), Minimum Wage is the
workaday saga of cartoonist Rob Hoffman and his
firebrand girlfriend, Sylvia. He churns out strips for
smut rags and off-brand MAD knockoffs and she languishes managing a hair salon. With their colorful
crew of friends, they forge ahead against the brutal
indifference of their hometown.
This definitive edition includes the original 72-page
“pilot” episode (Minimum Wage Book One) and the
revised “director’s cut” of the main storyline. Plus, a
bonus color section featuring original cover paintings
and guest pin-ups by Mike Mignola, Kevin Nowlan,
Dave Johnson, Jill Thompson, Dave Cooper, Glenn
Barr, and others.

1987: 240-pages of story and art completely restored
and remastered with new cover art and all new interior design.
A teen brother and sister, Jason and Liana, are confined to a mental hospital where they are the subject
of secret government experiments. They escape their
prison only to be pursued by supernatural forces,
strange alien people, and creatures with unique powers. Separated and kidnapped by two different factions of warring worlds, they learn they are the children of a race of powerful and ageless psychic
beings. The brother and sister are then used by both
factions of these alien forces to unknowingly battle
against one another.
Combining the sci-fi space opera of Star Wars, the
grand romance of Twilight, and the visual opulence
of Final Fantasy, the A Distant Soil saga finds Liana
forced to ascend to the throne of the alien world. Her
unique power makes her a living weapon of mass
destruction, the first line of defense for the corrupt
alien government.

• By the author of The New Destroyer, the Adventures of Remo
Williams! WHO IS THE RED MENACE? In the 1950s, the mysterious masked figure was a shadow and a whisper in Cold War corridors from Moscow to Beijing. Where walked the Red Menace,

he’s escaped the spy game for good, but into his restless retirement
steps a ghost from his past; a bitter Russian colonel with nothing to
lose and the means to wreak worldwide destruction! Aided by brilliant inventor and physician Dr. Thaddeus Wainwright, the Red
Menace is reborn for a new generation. But it’s a whole new world
out there, and if he doesn’t watch his step the swingin’ Seventies
might just find him RED AND BURIED!

Alan Moore, joins internationally esteemed photographer Mitch Jenkins for an unprecedented visual
and literary experience. An intensely poetic and
innovative work of biography, Unearthing maps the
lifetime of author, orientalist, and occultist Steve
Moore, while simultaneously investigating the
extraordinary history of South London with which
that life has been intertwined. Integrating text with
haunting and exquisite imagery, Unearthing excavates a territory at the margins of a city, of reality,
and of human imagination.
Starting life in Iain Sinclair’s seminal anthology

Venus, Arik works tirelessly to perfect the science of artificial
photosynthesis, a project crucial to the future of his home, V1.
The colony was built on the harsh Venusian surface by the
Founders, the first humans to establish a permanent extraterrestrial settlement. Arik’s research becomes critical when he awakens from an unexplained, near-fatal accident and learns that his
wife is three months pregnant. Unless Arik’s research uncovers
a groundbreaking discovery, V1’s oxygen supply will not be
able to support the increase in population that his baby represents. As Arik works against time, he begins to untangle the
threads of his accident, which seem inextricably linked to what
lies outside the protective walls of V1 — a world where the
caustic atmosphere and extreme heat make all forms of known
life impossible. But as Arik digs deeper and deeper, he discovers alarming truths about the planet that the Founders have kept
hidden. With growing urgency and increasing peril, Arik finds
himself on a journey that will push him to the limits of his intelligence and take him beyond the unimaginable.

DEAD SPOTS
• Scarlett Bernard knows about personal space: step within ten
feet of her, and any supernatural spells or demonic forces are
instantly defused — vampires and werewolves become human
again, and witches can’t get out so much as a “hocus pocus.”
This special skill makes her a null and very valuable to Los
Angeles’s three most powerful magical communities, who utilize her ability to scrub crime scenes clean of all traces of the
paranormal to keep humanity, and the LAPD, in the dark. But
one night Scarlett’s late arrival to a grisly murder scene reveals
her agenda and ends with LAPD’s Jesse Cruz tracking her
down to strike a deal: he’ll keep quiet about the undead underworld if she helps solve the case. Their pact doesn’t sit well
with Dash, the city’s chief bloodsucker, who fears his whole
vampire empire is at stake. And when clues start to point to
Scarlett, it’ll take more than her unique powers to catch the real
killer and clear her name.

Jack inherits a mansion with a priceless library —
and a terrifying warning from a man who claims to
be his father. Nightingale quickly learns his soul was
sold at birth and a devil will come to claim it on his
thirty-third birthday, which is just three short weeks
away. It’s a hard pill to swallow. He doesn’t believe
in Hell and probably doesn’t believe in Heaven
either. But when people close to him start to die horribly, he is led to the inescapable conclusion that real
evil may be at work. And if he doesn’t find a way out,
he’ll be damned for eternity.
Dripping with brooding intensity, unrelenting suspense, and surprising wit, United Kingdom thriller
master Stephen Leather’s first book in the
Nightingale series is a riveting, heart-stopping mystery with extraordinary range and power.

• “Your
•
sister is going to hell, Jack Nightingale.”
Somehow, variations of that line keep former police
negotiator Nightingale’s life careening in wild,
unforeseen directions. This time, it is uttered by a
dead woman hanging over a staircase, her neck broken by the laundry cord she tied around it before
tossing herself over the banister. But Jack and his sister have been separated since birth. How can he save
someone he’s never met? Nightingale goes on the
hunt for the sister he never knew, but everyone he
talks to about her dies horribly. It’s as if someone —
or something — is determined to keep them apart. If
he’s going to save her, he’s going to have to do what
he does best: negotiate. But any negotiation with the
forces of darkness comes at a terrible price, and first
Jack must ask himself a question: is every soul worth
saving?
Sharp and intense, UK master Stephen Leather’s second book in The Nightingale Trilogy is a taut, relentlessly paced thriller as terrifying and dark as midnight itself.

• The Kinley built a ship capable of traveling faster
than light. It carried a group of scientists to a small,
distant planet — a primitive place called Earth. Its
mission was peaceful observation. But when the ship
was destroyed, the Kinley crew found themselves
stranded in ancient Egypt, participants in the pageant
of life in the time of the Pharaohs. They buried remnants of their technology deep beneath the desert and
sent a last desperate message home. Five thousand
years later, the Kinley homeworld hovers on the
brink of extinction. An enemy that nearly obliterated
their race has risen again — now with the ability to
destroy them for good. A lone Kinley soldier named
Pruit is sent on a desperate mission: to follow the
ancient beacon back to Earth and recover the secrets
to faster than light travel.

THE CAT BEHIND THE HAT DELUXE HC
• This exquisitely produced collector’s edition holds four exclu-

Behind the Hat, a beautifully illustrated book that redefines Dr.
Seuss as an iconic American artist. Illustrator by day, surrealist
by night, Dr. Seuss created a body of little-known work that he
called his “Midnight Paintings.” For sixty years, this work
allowed Geisel to expand his artistic boundaries outside the
confines of commercial influences and deadlines. The book
exuberantly juxtaposes Geisel’s “Midnight Paintings” with his
best -loved children’s books. Though he fiercely protected his
“Midnight Paintings” from criticism during his lifetime, his
intention all along was for these works to be seen when he was
gone. This comprehensive look at the art that he created over his
lifetime, along with four frame-able prints, is an eye-opening
peek behind the public persona into the real story of the man
who was Dr. Seuss.

denizens of Earth as fodder for his practical jokes
throughout the ages, with the pyramids, Picasso, and
several US presidents among his more modest pranks.
Why does he do it? To boost the ratings of The

But when a system snafu lands Trager in the wrong
place, he finds himself at the mercy of the very species
he’s made into a galactic laughingstock. His only allies

With a relentless sheriff hot on their heels, the unlikely

a person with unusual powers. He’s also the prime
suspect in a string of murders linked by a series of
seemingly mundane objects. The deeper he digs and
the harder he works to clear his name, the more
Quentin realizes that some truths are better off staying buried.

ZOMBIE BIBLE BOOK 3:
STRANGERS IN THE LAND
• Father Polycarp has a Gift. He can bring peace and rest to the
restless dead. At his touch, each hungering corpse lies still at
last. But to do this, Polycarp must first look into each one’s
blind eyes and find the remnant of the soul caught within the
shambling corpse. He must witness its secrets, its suffering —
all that it loved and feared and regretted in its brief life. Only
then can he absolve that soul and set it free. Only then will it
cease to walk and feed. But Polycarp has more than the dead to
worry about. To save the Eternal City, Polycarp will have to
stand against the might and corruption of Roman justice and the
terrible moaning of the ravenous dead!
• The aging prophet Devora bolts awake in terror, gasping for air.
•
In her dream she heard her mother’s shrieks as the ravenous
dead pulled her from the tent. Devora had been only a girl then,
crying as she listened to her mother’s screams and the tearing of
her flesh. And in the morning, when her mother rose — undead
and hungering — Devora slew her! This third volume of The
Zombie Bible takes you to 1160 BC Israel as the walking
corpses devour the tents and homesteads of the People.
Strangers in the Land brings an episode from the biblical book
of Judges to life, fierce and blood spattered. Few will survive
the coming of the dead. None will survive unchanged.

on how the individual copes with it. Anything is possible: people breed dogs with humans to create a servant class; beneath
one great city lies another city, running it surreptitiously; an
employee finds that her hair has been stolen by someone intent
on getting her job; strange fish fall from trees and birds talk too
much; a boy tries to figure out what he can get when the Rapture
leaves good stuff behind. Everything is familiar; everything is
different. Behind it all, is there some strange kind of design or
merely just the chance to adapt? In Heuler’s stories, characters
cope with the strange without thinking it’s strange, sometimes
invested in what’s going on, sometimes trapped by it, but
always finding their own way in.

• The seven shards of the Shattered Star have been recov-
ered, and the Pathfinders prepare a grand festival on
Magnimar’s Irespan to celebrate this incredible
achievement. The culmination of this celebration is to
be the reassembly of the seven shards into the legendary Sihedron itself, rebuilt for the first time in over
ten thousand years. But a lot can change in that amount
of time, and as the ritual to reforge the artifact finishes,
ancient contingencies rumble to life, and as the dead
heart of Thassilon begins to beat once again, all of
Magnimar is put in terrible danger. With the power of
the Sihedron on their side, the heroes take a stance
against this risen evil — but will the aid of an ancient
artifact be enough to save them all?
The final chapter in the Shattered Star Adventure Path,
The Dead Heart of Xin is a Pathfinder Roleplaying
Game adventure for 15th-level characters. This volume
also includes an essay on the ancient Runelords of
Thassilon, complete with threads that reach to the modern day, plus new monsters fill the Pathfinder Bestiary
and Bill Ward’s Pathfinder Journal fiction concludes its exploration of the seedy underbelly of the
scoundrel haven of Riddleport.
