TRACE ADKINS IS LUKE MCBAIN 

• Country music superstar Trace Adkins is "Luke McBain", a man who returns to his small 

Southern hometown after 14 years in prison for a crime he did not commit. Luke's brother, 

Paul, is running the McBain family business that controls the town. Paul's made himself 

rich, but local shops have closed and jobs are gone; people are angry and scared. And no one 

can do anything to stop it! Except Luke, the only one who knows Paul's secret! Reunited 

with his beautiful ex-love, Callie, Luke McBain does what he's always done — make the hard 

choices and fight for what's right — even if it means he may go back to prison! Introducing 

an action hero who won't stop until the job gets done, Luke McBain pits brother against 

brother for the soul of an American small town. 

KEY SELLING POINTS: 

• Trace Adkins has sold over 10 million albums. He competed on Celebrity Aprentice. You've 

seen him in The Lincoln Lawyer. Now Trace Adkins is Luke McBain — an American hero 

for our times, in a story of right and wrong in the tradition of Billy Jack and Walking Tall. 

• Luke McBain is rendered in the likeness of platinum-selling country music star Trace 

Adkins.

Department to provide a profile through the victims' data. Based on Asano's profile and 

recommendation, an elaborate plan is put into place to lure the serial killer out - a plan that 

bore successful results! Now, after three years and twelve victims, Shinohara Keiji is finally 

in police custody. Shinohara has promised a thorough confession, however, on the absolute 

terms that Asano has to be the one to receive it. Besides the curious request by the killer 

whom Asano was only familiar with on paper, disturbing nightmares begin to plague him as 

soon as he's given the case...

THE PRAETORIAN 

• The island kingdom of Desperian has long been ruled under the iron heel of a dark wizard 

and his ruling class of loyalists. The nobles of the land have long held to an imperative law: 

blood in the arena keeps blood out of the streets. Cadres of celebrated gladiators entertain 

the masses in hallowed stadiums — temples of slaughter where sacrifices appease the 

populace. And through this control, the wizard Zoranthar continues his timeless dominance 

of the island. But now, slavers have delivered a stranger in chains to the shores of the desert 

wasteland. A broken, wounded, lost woman. Valoriss Bladesong does not appear to be a 

warrior of destiny, but her path will bring her to the doorstep of Emperor Zoranthar and a 

challenge for the destiny of Desperian!

of the Sword, an ancient book of spells that has binded itself to him. With a team of hit mages 

hired by a powerful sorcerer after him, it's trial by fire for the new Occultist, as he learns to handle 

his powerful magical tome, or suffer at the hands of these deadly enemies. But as he fights for his 

life, our hero wonders whether he's wielding this enigmatic weapon, or if it's the one in control! 


• From the mind of Dark Horse founder and publisher Mike Richardson (The Secret, Cut, The 

Mask)! 

• Written by Hack/Slash's Tim Seeley! 

• Cover by Steve Morris (Serenity, Dollhouse, Angel & Faith) 

• "Seeley described [The Occultist] as a 'first-year Doctor Strange' and that alone is something I 

want to read. The fact that this character has already been fleshed out in one issue and the set up 

given is a brilliant display of being economical and still having quality." — Comic Book

• Forget the World Wide Web. In the future, all aspects of human interaction are done through 

the Flywire Network. A Flywire is an electronic device surgically implanted behind every 

citizen's ear that gives them wireless access to infinite libraries of digital information. Want

Flywire Network and order some. Did you get lost while driving? Think of your destination 

and the Flywire Network will send the correct route directly to your brain. Are you feeling 

like having some, um, romantic company for the evening? Think it, and a hologram of a 

sexy virtual partner zaps before you! Technology can finally make our dreams a reality 

quicker faster than you can snap your fingers. But is this a gift or curse?

future world where technology is EVERYTHING, Kelsey must find a way to save the day 

without being jacked into the system.

FRAGILE 

• Love Never Dies!! It couldn't be truer that in the world of Fragile! In this post-apocalyptic 

world, 95% of the world's population is dead. However, the dead have no intention of 

resting in peace. The few "living" survivors have organized safe havens that are mostly 

secure. Alan Olden was a simple carpenter inside a small walled town until an accident, as 

fatal as it was stupid, took his life. While on the run from humans and the undead zombie 

hunters called Disinfestors, Alan finds the girl of his dreams — the decomposing, yet 

beautiful Lynn. As their bodies degenerate, they make a desperate effort to "live" again by 

seeking out an experimental serum that might save them. In the process, they fall deeper and 

deeper in love...a love they will need to survive against danger, disfigurement, and 

decomposition.

ART OF MOLLY CRABAPPLE VOLUME 2: 

DEVIL IN THE DETAILS 

• Fine artist, illustrator, and comics creator Molly Crabapple captures the absurdity of modern 

life in intricate, theatrical detail in her fine art work, drawing inspiration from politics, polite 

(and not-so-polite) society, and hundreds of years of literature. Her work is 

burlesque-inspired in the broadest definition of the word — deftly satirizing the powerful 

with adorably sinister animals, steampunk-tinged machinery, and of course, beautiful girls. 

But it's not all fantastical — when Occupy Wall Street broke out, Molly was there, capturing 

the immediacy of the revolutionary feeling in pen and ink. 

• In a new 48-page book from IDW, you can get Molly's art in gorgeous full-color, work that's 

decorated glamorous nightclubs, museums and galleries, and protest signs and occupied 

spaces around the country. Comedian Margaret Cho contributes the Foreward. 


• Featured in six solo art exhibitions & dozens of group exhibitions from 2003 to 2011. 

• Molly has worked on a number of comics (often with writer John Leavitt), creating the 

graphic novel Scarlett Takes Manhattan, drawing stories for two Marvel anthologies Strange 

Tales Volume 2 and Girl Comics Volume 2, as well as providing art for the web comics 

Backstage at Act-i-vate & Puppet Makers at Zuda.

RIO 

• Doug Wildey was an acclaimed comic book and comic strip artist, as well as a noted 

animator. Very much in the school of Milton Caniff and Alex Toth, Wildley was an artist's 

artist, a storyteller of the highest order, and one with remarkable depth. While not known for 

any specific character (very much like Toth), Wildey worked in many genres — with western 

stories being some of his most memorable. 

• In 1987 Wildey began one of his most personal works, Rio — the story of an aging cowboy 

and gunfighter, as well as special agent for the President of the United States, Ulysses S. 

Grant. This volume collects the entire Rio saga in one handsome collection, including the 

final, unfinished and unpublished Rio story. 


• As an animator, Doug Wildey created and designed the groundbreaking Johnny Quest series 

in 1964, which inspired a generation of cartoonists with it's memorable characters, thrilling, 

breakneck pace, and innovative designs. Wildey also acted as mentor to The Rocketeer 

creator, Dave Stevens, as well as serving as the visual inspiration for the character Peevy.

whose true name is 'Gorgon'. What headstrong Gaelen and her gentle cousin do not know is 

that Gorgon is in league with the Dark Power, and that the forces of Evil have forged an 

entanglement between Gorgon and Gaelen herself. Now she and all she loves are in 

jeopardy, and only an inspired plan put forth by Orogond, a mortal man, can save her.

BLUE 

• Blue is the debut graphic novel of Australian cartoonist Pat Grant. Part autobiography, part 

science fiction, Blue is the story of three spotty teenagers who skip school to go surfing, 

only to end up investigating rumors of a dead body in their beach town. 


• "This book rekindles my earliest enthusiasm for the comics medium. Pat Grant is the 

Australian Mark Twain, trading Huck's raft for a waxed-up surfboard and an inked-up sable 

brush. Vast themes of racism and immigration unravel in sprawling murals and a single day 

in the life of some reckless teens in this sea-polished, perfect nugget of a book." — Craig

THE LEAGUE OF EXTRAORDINARY 

GENTLEMEN VOLUME 3: CENTURY #3 

2009 

• In Chapter Three, the narrative draws to its cataclysmic close in London 2008. The magical 

child whose ominous coming has been foretold for the past hundred years has now been 

born and has grown up to claim his dreadful heritage. His promised aeon of unending terror 

can commence, the world can now be ended starting with North London, and there is no 

League, extraordinary or otherwise, that now stands in his way. The bitter, intractable war of 

attrition in Q'umar crawls bloodily to its fifth year, away in Kashmir a Sikh terrorist with a 

now-nuclear-armed submarine wages a holy war against Islam that might push the whole 

world into atomic holocaust, and in a London mental institution there's a patient who insists 

that she has all the answers. 


• The long-awaited conclusion to the bestselling third series of The League of Extraordinary 

Gentlemen: CENTURY! 

• It's an all-new adventure from Alan Moore, the most acclaimed (and perhaps bestselling)

• A pirate ship carrying four children crashes on the shore of a mysterious and merciless 

jungle. Each child is taken by a separate tribe of animals as a means to keep the peace 

between the species. It is a peace that will not last... 

• Adapted from the Rudyard Kipling story, Grimm Fairy Tales Presents: The Jungle Book

war — The Great Animal Battle. Mowglii must learn her place in the jungle and fight for 

survival against many exotic beasts. But she is not the only human in this jungle island. 

Three other children have been raised by different animal tribes: Bomani grows up in the 

tiger tribe that is led by the conniving Shere Kahn, Akili learned the ways of the jungle from 

the mischievous Tavi mongoose tribe, and Dewan comes of age within the unpredictable 

Monkeys of Bandar Log, which is led by the insane King Bandar Louis. Mowglii and the 

rest of the human cubs play key roles in the ongoing Great Animal Battle of Kipling Isle as 

they approach adulthood...and each will have to face the destiny that awaits them in the 

unforgiving jungle. A place where only the strong will survive.

IMAGINARIUM 2012: THE BEST 

CANADIAN SPECULATIVE WRITING 

• ChiZine Publications and Tightrope Books unite in a joint venture to produce a yearly 

anthology of speculative short fiction and poetry (science fiction, fantasy, horror, and magic 

realism). Canadian speculative fiction has been increasingly recognized internationally for 

the calibre of its authors and their insight into the nature of social and cultural identities, the 

implications of new technologies, and the relationship between humankind and its 

environments. At their best, these pieces disrupt habits and overcome barriers of cultural 

perception to make the familiar strange through the use of speculative elements such as 

magic and technology. They provide glimpses of alternate realities and possible futures and 

pasts that provoke an ethical, social, political, environmental, and biological inquiry into 

what it means to be human. 


• The first edition of an annual anthology that promises to be a valuable addition to the Best 

Canadian Series, which includes The Best Canadian Poetry in English and The Best 

Canadian Essays.

THE YEAR'S BEST DARK FANTASY & 

HORROR 2012 EDITION 

• Take a journey into darkness. Visit places where one might expect to find the dark — in a 

house where love was shared and lost, a milky-white pool in an Australian cave, the 

trenches of World War I, the deep woods. You would not be surprised to find the dark in a 

cheap apartment on the wrong side of town, down mean streets, under a gallows-tree, along 

dank passageways, trapped underground, in the near future, or among the mysteries of old 

New Orleans. Dunes, lakes, isolated cabins, old books, and Old West saloons — well, the 

darkness might easily be there. But we've also found locales you thought were safe from 

shadows — a rib joint with good blues playing, inside an old wardrobe, on a baseball 

diamond, the Beverly Wilshire Hotel... 

• Travel into the best dark fantasy and horror from 2011 with more than five-hundred pages of 

tales from some of today's best-known writers of the fantastique as well as new talents — 

stories that will take you to a diverse assortment of dark places. 


• Features over a quarter-million words of fiction by some of the genre's greatest authors, as 

selected by Paula Guran, a well-known and well-received editor. 

• "Paula Guran is the grey eminence behind the world of horror. She is the secret mistress of 

the genre. Listen to her." — Neil Gaiman 

• "...certain to join the year's-best collections as a staple in the genre-fiction world." — Booklist

DEATHWATCH: RISING TEMPEST 

• As the conflict against the Tau approaches its breaking point and paranoia over their 

suspected acts of sedition reaches an all-time high, the infamous Lord Commander 

Ebongrave seeks allies he can trust in his campaign against disloyalty. But are Tau 

sympathizers really maneuvering among the loyal citizens of the Imperium? And if so, what 

darker plans do they hold in store? 

• Rising Tempest is an epic adventure in three parts for Deathwatch, the popular Warhammer 

40,000 roleplaying game. When the Tau make a play for dominance that threatens to tip the

PATHFINDER CAMPAIGN SETTING: 

MAGNIMAR, CITY OF MONUMENTS 

• Known as the City of Monuments for its jaw-dropping skyline of ancient ruins, magnificent 

towers, and stunning sculptures, Magnimar embodies the spirit of Varisia more than any 

other great city. Yet with Magnimar's explosive growth over the last century, life in the City 

of Monuments has become an adventure in and of itself. With strange monsters lurking amid 

the ancient ruins that form the city's foundation, roving bands of thieves, smugglers, and 

murderers battling for control over the city's alleys, and the increasingly decadent attitudes 

of its oldest families, Magnimar lies at a crossroads. Will it succeed despite the obstacles 

thrown in its path, or is the City of Monuments doomed to crumble under the pressure of its 

own runaway success? 

• This Pathfinder sourcebook explores the city of Magnimar (first featured in the now classic 

Rise of the Runelords Adventure Path) in great detail. Each city district has its own unique 

flavor and role, and comes with pages of details on industries and institutions, leisure and 

markets, and politics and entertainment. Dozens of shops, taverns, guildhalls, and more 

await discovery, many of which are presented with additional adventure hooks, memorable 

NPCs, and inspirational bits of lore. Examinations of regions ripe for adventuring or sinister 

groups worthy of defeat, along with a robust bestiary featuring commonly encountered 

NPCs or monsters closely associated with the City of Monuments completes this book, 

which will be an invaluable addition to your upcoming Shattered Star Adventure Path. 


• The city of Magnimar features prominently in Shattered Star Adventure Path, as well as the 

Rise of the Runelords Anniversary Edition!

PATHFINDER MODULE: MURDER’S MARK 

• The circus has come to town! But rather than herald a time of festive joy and exotic 

entertainment, this normally wondrous event instead heralds a sudden rash of violent 

murders. The victims bear the unmistakable mark of talons on their savaged bodies — and it 

just so happens that this circus has among its exhibits numerous creatures capable of 

inflicting such wounds, not the least of which a mysterious sphinx. Desperate for aid in a 

town that's forbidden them to leave before an opportunity for justice presents itself, the 

carnies turn to adventurers for aid — can they find the culprit before the murderer finds 

them? 

• This Pathfinder adventure is designed for a group of four 1st-level characters, and takes 

place in the heartland of Varisia, a region featured in many beloved adventures including the 

Rise of the Runelords Anniversary Edition and Shattered Star Adventure Paths. In addition 

to the adventure, Murder's Mark also features a brand-new monster and a gazetteer of a 

Varisian carnival suitable for use with any fantasy roleplaying campaign.
