Collected together for the first time, all three volumes of the irreverent, no-holds-barred graphic novel about an STI that grants superpowers at a cost of only 6 months to live…

Death Sentence is an adult story featuring swearing, drug-taking, sex, violence and it’s blackly funny too. Snort your coffee across the room funny!

SEX, SUPERPOWERS AND SIX MONTHS TO LIVE!

Verity: frustrated artist. Weasel: struggling guitarist. Monty: rogue media icon. Three people infected with the G+ virus, which grants them incredible powers – but will kill them in six months! Will they fade away – or go out in a blaze of glory? From the streets of London to the North Atlantic, from muses lost to futures thrown away – Death Sentence is the jaw-dropping next step in superpowered storytelling! Funny, fearless and frightening, this collection of the hit series is an unforgettable comics debut.

More than any other series Death Sentence predicted the world we now live in, one of the reasons it was named Dreamcage Comic of the Decade (beating Umbrella Academy into second place). Work is underway to turn the comic into a major TV series, but nothing beats the magic of reading the original comics first.

This incredible collection sees all three graphic novels brought together for the first time in marvellous mayhem!

LANEY GENNAWAY, recently separated and new to Southern California, decides to take a true crime tour to get to know her new town. The location of the tour: the notorious Aztec Hotel, built during Prohibition to cater to gamblers, drinkers, and sexual libertines, since fallen on hard times (and reportedly haunted) She befriends an elderly man named PRESTON BAILEY, who is friendly but clearly lonely. The tour is focused on a famous unsolved case from 1949―the so-called “FLOWER ARRANGER” who mixed and matched the body parts of his three victims (Violet, Rose, and Lily) at the Aztec Hotel before vanishing into thin air. The husband-and-wife tour guides claim to have finally discovered the Flower Arranger’s identity and promise to lay out their case over the three-hour tour, ending with the big reveal. Laney is fascinated as the lurid details of case unfold, but quickly realizes that her new friend Preston has a personal connection to the murders: his older sister was LILY BAILEY, the third victim. As the tour begins to spiral out of control―the hotel loses power, and key guests (including a retired cop) fall strangely ill or go missing―Laney realizes someone on the tour is behind all this chaos and determined to stop the revelation of the Flower Arranger’s real name. But why?

How to train a Filipino dragon and other real-life adventures of three modern monster hunters!

Since The Lost Journal of Alejandro Pardo was published, other creature hunters have come out of the woodwork to share their spine-tingling accounts of more discoveries. True? Exaggerated? Out-and-out lies? Read on and decide for yourself!

The Black Bestiary adds to the list of powerful and fearsome supernatural creatures we met in The Lost Journal of Alejandro Pardo. Three modern creature hunters—RJ, Gus and Stanislav, who draw their inspiration from Pardo’s work—relate their own chilling encounters with the sinister monsters that live among us.

In this book, you’ll come face-to-face with:

The Bungisngis: You’ve heard of the Cyclops; this is a Cyclops on steroids!

The Tahamaling: Never hunt in the forest without permission from these maidens…

The Tiktik: Part avian, part human, part something else. These terrifying creatures feed on the unborn.

And many more creatures of horrifying aspect and predilection!

You’ll also discover excerpts from the journal of a certain Mr. Kolya, a contemporary of Pardo’s, who always tells it like it was. Though these new sightings are all recent, the weapons used against them rely on tried-and-true magic—because forearmed, as well as forewarned, is always best!

The Black Bestiary is a lively romp through the world of the imagination, as well as a great way to learn more about Asian folklore, magic and myth.

The police prove useless, so Eddie teams up with her best friend, Rainer, in a desperate hunt to find her sister. The only thing is…Eddie believes her best friend might be the Devil himself.

By: Luke Lieberman (Author), Alberto Locatelli (Artist)

The She-Devil with a Sword has dealt out death many times in her travels, and she has learned through bitter experience that blood which is spilled can never be entirely washed away ― and sometimes it can come back to haunt you.

With Turan’s collapse into anarchy weighing heavily on her mind, Sonja returns to save the Sultan’s true heir and bring peace to the land ― at least, that’s the plan.

But she is not the only one hunting the boy. An undead assassin called Bloodless is stalking her every step, and he intends to force Red Sonja to face her inner demons ― whether she likes it or not!

Veteran Sonja scribe LUKE LIEBERMAN (Red Sonja: Birth of the She-Devil) is joined by rising art star ALBERTO LOCATELLI (Vampirella: Dead Flowers) for a rousing tale of adventure that also tallies the costs exacted by the path of the sword! Issues 1 thru 4 of the series.

By: Jeff Whitehead (Author), Ryan Carr (Artist)

Two titans of horror come together for the first time ever, in John Carpenter Presents George A. Romero’s The Amusement Park, the graphic novel adaptation of George Romero’s lost 1973 film of the same name, presented by John Carpenter and Sandy King’s Storm King Comics.

William Lincoln, an impatient businessman in his 20s, casually asks a small-town coffee shop barista about a carousel horse atop its roof. Within earshot, an elderly man asks William if he would like to learn about the history of the sprawling amusement park that once stood on that spot, the carousel horse the final reminder of its existence. They settle into a conversation that immediately disturbs young William. It is the story of an elderly man hoping to experience the amusement park one last time to recapture childhood memories, to relish the rapidly fleeting remaining moments.

Instead of pleasant memories, each attraction becomes a surreal microcosm of aging and its inherent challenges as bodies and minds begin to break down. The elderly man is abused, pushed in a seemingly endless throng of elderly people through attractions that mimic the final stages of life. Finally, he winds up right back where he started, battered both mentally and physically. Instead of being able to leave the park, he realizes he is trapped in a loop, forced to relive the harrowing experience over and over. At the end of the elderly man’s tale, William is puzzled, concerned, and annoyed, irritated to have had his time wasted on such a story.

William quickly realizes that not everything in the coffee shop is as it seems. The elderly man with whom young William has been conversing shares his name. It is William Lincoln. Perplexed and scared now, young William attempts to leave, fleeing through the coffee shop’s front door. When the door closes behind him, William is back in the amusement park, transformed again into his elderly self, still trapped in the loop, forced to reconcile the reality of aging and ultimately, his own mortality.

A dystopian horror story about music and mental illness.

Nat and her bandmates in The Dead Layaways want to go on tour, but the demonic entities who run their city have other idea, not to mention the dark cloud that hangs over everything stifles their creativity. This ruined place is not their home, and they have no idea how they ended up here, or where “home” even is. Is there really nothing but endless wasteland beyond the city limits, as the demons claim?

Much like the author’s previous work, The Last Band On Earth draws on themes of mental illness and attempted recovery. It is about being in your 20s and still not feeling like a Real Adult, and the fear that time is running out.

Riding in hot on the heels of Volume One’s cliffhanger ending ― the eagerly anticipated return of Blood! Guts! and a Sugar Rush! is here!

Sweetie and her Candy Vigilante squad are back to kick off Volume Two of their SWEET new series with the epic, not-to-be-missed “Sugartown Showdown”! Together with her shape-shifting, licorice-loving lycanthrope Candy Wolf and newly “minted” ninjette warrior Pixie Stix, Sweetie faces off against her “salty” arch-nemesis Bart Volgare and his gang of thugs in the icy, snowy streets of New York City with a violently delicious fury.

So, you have chosen salt? So be it! Blood is spilled and lives are changed (including many ended) as an army of fabled supernaturals and sugar-fueled allies hop into action to scramble the bad eggs. Candy Wolf shows the crime syndicate soldiers what big teeth he has, while Pixie gives her newly gifted nunchucks a maiden battlefield test-spin, reducing criminal weaponry to molten scrap metal! Sweetie’s signature Jawbreaker gun also resurfaces, armed with delicious new ammo (can’t you just smell the gingerbread?), but not before she unleashes some brand-new, sweetly sinister confections that wash away the naughty and leave a wicked smile on your face ― literally! Isn’t that NICE?

What does Bart have to say for himself about the disappearance of Sweetie’s parents? Will a certain supercharged monster truck fueled by ice cream make the scene? When the candy-coated carnage ends, will the bodies be bagged before NYC’s Department of Sanitation barrels down the block to do their rounds? Pick up Sweetie Candy Vigilante Vol. 2 and find out, gumdrop! This volume also includes a FREE MP3 download of the song “Hatchy Milatchy,” a new, never-before-released track by Osaka Popstar recorded specifically for this book!

Séance in the Asylum will have you questioning what is real, and what’s not…or in this case, who’s mad, who’s sane, or who’s actually possessed?

1865. The Civil War finally reaches its grueling end. Soldiers returning from the frontline come home broken, their minds shattered. An influx of patients overwhelms The Ashcroft Hospital, an asylum in upstate New York. Dr. John James Templeton is busy developing a radical new theory: spiritualism—the act of communicating with the dead—is its own form of therapy. What better way to draw out these mental maladies then with a little assistance from the other side? Templeton enlists Alicia Wilkinson, a medium who as a young girl established herself as a sought-after conduit capable of contacting the dead…but her own past continues to haunt her.

These séance sessions become a cutting-edge form of “spectral therapy,” where patients are permitted to converse with, perhaps expunge, their own maladies. By reaching out beyond the veil of our own world, these spirits aid in drawing out the illness of the patient. But something is changing in the patients. They are acting different…possessed, perhaps. Templeton’s experiment is a success. Too successful. It is up to Alicia to understand what is happening to the patients of Ashcroft…before it’s too late.

Power grids fail, communications break down, food supplies dwindle, and even fellow uninfected humans can’t be trusted. Survival becomes nearly impossible, maintaining ones’ humanity, even harder.

Two and a half years later a journal is found atop the spire of the Seattle Space Needle. The contents tell of one man’s experiences in this nightmare existence.

After landing in jail following a night of drunken revelry, Red Sonja hears an outlandish story from a fellow inmate. Deep in the mountains lies a dead city in a valley with no name. Abandoned and forgotten, its fields and streets are littered with the bones of two armies, all destroyed by a curse from a warlock who has long since vanished, along with his vast treasure ― untold riches just waiting to be taken.

At least that is the legend. But Sonja’s cellmate Morgo has more than a diverting tale ― he’s also got a map that says this legend could well be reality. All they need to do is break out of lockup and hit the road ― which may be easier said than done!
