Love Song

Christopher (w & a & c)

Like the best rock n' roll bands, Love Song is four parts that harmonize the muddy and messy chords of life into a breathtaking resolution. United by a shared love of music, this collection of four "albums" is composed of a series of short stories, each running into the next like best cuts from your favorite records. And like a classic album, Love Song gets the joy and humor out of the way up front, letting the story wind its way into the dark and serious corners of adult life. Alternating between loud and quiet or hard and soft, this story will sink its hook into readers like a jingle or riff that just won't be easily forgotten.

Christophe Gibelin (w) • Claire Wendling (a & c)

Long ago, no living creatures existed in the Legend world, except for a magician by the name of Théo… and a giant oak tree. The two beings made a pact: one would imagine and draw the form of the creatures, to which the second would give life. In exchange, the magician would become immortal. The world is now populated by a wide array of species, including the human-like Transparents. But as time passes, the Great Oak begins to weaken, and Théo wants to acquire its power… and then there are Yz and Meth, two hybrid demons who threaten to turn the world upside down in this original graphic novel.

The Three Rooms in Valerie's Head—CERTIFIED COOL

David Gaffney (w) • Dan Berry (a & c)

British comedy blended with universal regret, this darkly funny graphic novel uses surreal and beautiful visions to explore the ways we remain haunted by our ex-lovers. Valerie has a rich interior life.

Every day she brings them upstairs and speaks with them about what went wrong.

What follows is a series of peculiar and funny—and sometimes disturbing—short tales about inept lovers, weird obsessions, and socially malfunctioning men who repeatedly fail to build a relationship with poor Valerie. Except for Stanley. Stanley was special. Could he be the one to save her?

Steve Canyon, Vol. 8: 1961-1962

Milton Caniff (w & a & c)

The Greatest Generation's cartoonist-in-chief, Milton Caniff, continues to appeal to two disparate groups—comics aficionados as well as active military and veterans. The Air Force created an official record for Steve Canyon, the only time a fictional character was so honored.

Milton Caniff tackles the escalating Cold War throughout 1961 and '62 as Steve Canyon finds himself trapped, alongside old friends Princess Snowflower and Doagie Hogan, in a net of intrigue between the USSR and Communist China! Meanwhile, as the Cuban Missile Crisis plays out in the waters south of Florida, Steve Canyon and the alluring Miss Mizzou attempt to preserve our freedom by stopping another Red plot hatched at the Panama Canal! These never-before-reprinted strips include full-color Sunday pages, and are reproduced from Caniff's own file copies.
