JANUARY 2016 NEW RELEASES Graphic Novels t Manga t Sci-Fi/ fantasy t Games 27, A COMIC ANTHOLOGY Stars burn hot, bright, and then go out forever. But their legacy remains. Like the smoky haze of a rock-n-roll arena show, a cloud of mystery and intrigue surrounds music's infamous "27 Club." Some of the club's more famous members include Jim Morrison (The Doors), Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain (Nirvana), and Amy Winehouse, among many others. These fallen stars revolutionized music in their youth, only for all of them to die at the age of 27. Is it a conspiracy, or merely a coincidence? A rocking crew of fifty-four comics creators were challenged to use their favorite song or member of the 27 Club as inspiration for new and original comic stories and vignettes. 27, A Comic Anthology is a free-form, funky collection of over 200 pages of rock-n-roll comics, featuring over twenty-seven new grooves inspired by, and in tribute to, the myth and magic of this club of lost stars and their shining, tragic legacy. Edited by Enrica Jang (Red Stylo Media), with introduction by Dr. Dianna Kenny (Sydney University, and author of “Stairway to Hell: life and death in the pop music industry”) Original comic stories, illustrated essays and art inspired by the music of: Amy Winehouse, Kurt Cobain (Nirvana), Jim Morrison (The Doors), Janis Joplin, Brian Jones (The Rolling Stones), Alexander Levy (composer), Robert Johnson, Rudy Lewis (The Drifters), Dave Alexander (The Stooges), Richey Edwards (Manic Street Preachers), Kristen Pfaff (Hole), Jean-Michel Basquiat, Jeremy Michael Ward (Mars Volta), Helmut Kollen (Triumvirat), Mia Zapata (The Gits), Alan “Blind Owl” Wilson (Canned Heat), and more!

In his first-ever comic series, Dirk has been forced to leave his beloved England behind, coming to the too-sunny, too-cheery, and altogether too-bizarre-even-for-Dirk city of San Diego, California, where he gets embroiled in three separate (or are they?) cases involving reincarnated Egyptians, golden cell phones, and copycat killers. All this in a new town seemingly incapable of making even a single proper cup of tea.

The Eisner- and Harvey-award winning raucous sex comedy that Time magazine called the Comic of the Year and Apple called "inappropriate for sale on iOS devices" returns in SEX CRIMINALS V3: THREE THE HARD WAY. So it turns out Jon and Suzie aren't alone — other people around the world, like them, freeze time when they climax. A self-appointed group wants to regulate and control them through fear and intimidation. Jon and Suzie are falling in love and want their freak flags to fly, but if they're going to fight back they can't do it alone. And really, isn't that a metaphor for the whole series? That we might all be alone but we're all alone together? I think so. If you read only one comic with a semen-demon in it this year, please make it SEX CRIMINALS V3: THREE THE HARD WAY. “I wouldn’t trust most comic creators to turn a sexual awakening into compelling pulp fiction, but Fraction and Zdarsky pull it off masterfully.” –Paste Magazine KEY SELLING POINTS: - As seen on LATE NIGHT WITH SETH MEYERS! - The Eisner- and Harvey-award winning raucous sex comedy that Time magazine called the Comic of the Year - “I wouldn’t trust most comic creators to turn a sexual awakening into compelling pulp fiction, but Fraction and Zdarsky pull it off masterfully.” –Paste Magazine SELECTED PREVIOUS VOLUMES: • Sex Criminals Volume 2: Two Worlds, One Cop (ISBN-13 978-1-63215-193-3, $14.99) • Sex Criminals Volume 1: One Weird Trick (ISBN-13 978-1-60706-946-1, $9.99) ISBN-13: 978-1-63215-542-9 Price: $14.99 ($17.50 CAN) Publisher: Image Comics Writer: Matt Fraction Artist: Chip Zdarsky Page Count: 132 Format: Softcover, Full Color Recommended Age: Mature Readers (ages 16 and up) Other Works by Creators: Sex Criminals Volume 1: One Weird Trick (ISBN-13 978-1-60706-946-1, $9.99), Sex Criminals Volume 2: Two Worlds, One Cop (ISBN-13 978-1-63215-193-3, $14.99) Comparison Title: Sex Criminals Volume 1: One Weird Trick (ISBN-13 978-1-60706-946-1, $9.99), Sex Criminals Volume 2: Two Worlds, One Cop (ISBN-13 978-1-63215-193-3, $14.99), Rat Queens Volume 1: Sass & Sorcery TP (ISBN-13 978-1-60706-945-4, $9.99), Rat Queens Volume 2: The Far Reaching Tentacles of N'Rygoth (ISBN-13 978-1-63215-040-0, $14.99) Genre: Humor Ship Date: 1/26/2015 SHUTTER VOLUME 3: QUO VADIS Kate Kristopher was a globally renowned explorer on an Earth fart more fantastic than our own.

KEY SELLING POINTS: One of the best selling single issue comics in 2015 Hugely popular with a wide range of audiences Resurgence of public interest from Hot Topic, Nickelodeon "10/10- I don't think there's much else to say about the book and to be honest, you really should be reading it by now, right?" - Big Comic Page "10/10- Invader Zim #1 kicks things off without wasting any time. It looks and sounds and feels just like the cartoon; so much so you might even forget you're reading a comic. Its funny, weird, random, dark… Everything Invader Zim's supposed to be." - AiPT!

Along with the art, it's as if the show never left our lives." - Major Spoilers "10/10 - I recommend this book to old fans of the show as well as to anyone who just likes a slightly dark comedy about aliens and bumbling kids… Well, actually, the alien is kind of bumbling in this one, too." - Comic Booked "10/10- Invader Zim is back and the world is a better place as a result. This is such a damn fun comic and it's great for positively everyone. The humor is so deliciously weird and it never stops being funny.

I also applaud the way it acclimated brand new readers into the mix, giving them all a taste of the raunchy, twisted humor that comes from the mind of Jhonen Vasquez." Fanboys Inc "9.0/10- Invader Zim #1 has fun with the series’ long hibernation, but steps back into the thick of things as if an episode aired last week. Free from network constraints, with ten years of hindsight to guide him, and under pressure from the change of format, Jhonen Vasquez’s humor shines, delivering gags that can stand up against even the most rose-tinted memories of the original." - Weekly Comic Book Review ISBN-13: 978-1-62010-293-0 Price: $19.99 ($22.99 CAN) Publisher: Oni Press Writer: Jhonen Vasquez, Eric Trueheart Artist: Aaron Alexovich, Megan Lawton, Simon Troussellier, Rikki Simons Page Count: 128 Format: Softcover, Full Color Frequency: Annual Recommended Age: Young Adult Comparison Title: Adventure Time Volume 1 TP (ISBN-13 978-1-60886-280-1, $14.99), Rick and Morty Volume 1 (ISBN-13 978-1-62010-281-7, $19.99), Bee and PuppyCat Vol 1 (ISBN-13 978-1-60886-487-4, $14.99), STEVEN UNIVERSE TP VOL 01 (ISBN-13 978-1-60886-706-6, $14.99) Genre: Humor Ship Date: 1/27/2016 Rights: Canada, Guam, Mexico, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, United States, Virgin Islands, US LETTER 44 VOLUME 3: DARK MATTER WORLD WAR THREE.

Worse, the one-time despotic ruler of Kintargo, Barzillai Thrune lives on in the depths of Hell, and his plans for the region have only been slowed. Strange manifestations of ghostly spirits and infernal hauntings spread through Kintargo, and before long, the truth cannot be ignored—the high-inquisitor's death has only made him more powerful, and the secret to stopping him forever lies hidden in the roots of Hell itself! Can Kintargo’s heroes brave the depths of the pit to ensure the city is finally and forever safe from Barzillai Thrune? “Breaking the Bones of Hell” is a Pathfinder Roleplaying Game adventure for 15th-level characters. The adventure concludes the Hell’s Rebels Adventure Path, an urban- and political-themed campaign that focuses on a rebellion against one of the Pathfinder Campaign Setting’s most infamous nations—devil-haunted Cheliax.
