Flash Gordon, introduced as a Sunday newspaper<br />
comic strip by King Features Syndicate in<br />
1934, remains, after 70+ years, one of the<br />
most beloved American epics of heroic fantasy.<br />
Initially envisioned and drawn by Alex Raymond,<br />
the strip’s mélange of alien wonders, beautiful<br />
damsels, interplanetary evil and peerless derringdo<br />
remains potent today. Al Williamson is<br />
Raymond’s top successor, exemplifying the<br />
original spirit of Raymond’s creation. With<br />
images reproduced directly from Williamson’s<br />
original drawings, this volume encompasses<br />
his three stints depicting Flash:<br />
■ King Comics from the 1960s<br />
■ the 1980 Flash Gordon motion picture (Universal)<br />
■ the 1994 Marvel Comics miniseries<br />
■ images reproduced directly from Williamson’s original drawings<br />
Al Williamson was born in NYC in 1931, and<br />
his professional credits are both legion<br />
and legendary.<br />
Mark Schultz has been cartooning, illustrating,<br />
and writing for over twenty years. He created<br />
Xenozoic Tales, adapted to TV as Cadillacs and Dinosaurs,<br />
and is the recipient of numerous awards.<br />
Sergio Aragonés’ award-winning work has<br />

“The lifestyles of the rich and famous are very attractive. I’m being<br />
perfectly honest, that was part of the attraction for me to be the<br />

good. You start to get into it. I didn’t study acting. I got out here<br />
and had much to learn.”– Brad Pitt<br />
A unique compilation of early-career<br />

Hollywood’s hottest celebrities, including<br />
Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, John Cusack, Sandra<br />
Bullock, Laura Dern and Courteney Cox.<br />
Shot and recorded by Photographer Karen<br />
Bystedt, the photographs and interviews are a<br />

moved to LA, capitalizing on her unique talent<br />
for identifying top actors early in their careers.<br />

King Jesus<br />
From Kam (Egypt) to Camelot<br />
By Ralph Ellis<br />
“Priests and kings were anointed ... hence the title ‘christ’ or<br />
‘messiah’ often signified the same as ‘king’.”– Commentary on<br />
the Bible, Adam Clarke, 1832<br />
On a quest to locate St. Paul (Saul) in the<br />
historical record, scholar Ralph Ellis found<br />
evidence that St. Paul was actually Josephus<br />
Flavius, the first century Jewish historian.<br />
Through Flarius’ histories, Ellis exposes new<br />
perspectives on the life of Jesus.<br />
Ellis asserts that King Jesus and Queen Mary<br />
Magdalene were actually wealthy owners of a<br />
city-state in eastern Syrio-Jordan and had a<br />
private army. The Romans wanted to impose<br />
taxes on the city-state and provoked the<br />
Jewish Rebellion, which King Jesus fought<br />
and lost. He was crucified, reprieved,<br />
banished and exiled to Britain, a remote<br />
Roman military outpost.<br />
There, King Jesus became famous once<br />
again, but the locals called him and his<br />
disciples King Arthur and the Twelve<br />
Knights of the Last Supper Table.<br />
DID JESUS BECOME KING ARTHUR?<br />

The Crystal Skulls<br />
Astonishing Portals to<br />
Man’s Past<br />
By David Childress and Stephen S. Mehler<br />
All the current information on crystal skulls<br />
by two authors with first-hand knowledge!<br />
In 1927, while searching Mayan ruins for the lost<br />
civilization of Atlantis, archaeologists discovered<br />
a perfect replica of a human skull, exquisitely<br />
carved and polished from a single piece of quartz<br />
crystal. Clearly the product of a sophisticated<br />
civilization, its age has been estimated at 12,000<br />
years! Crystal skulls have also been found in<br />
Belize, Guatemala and the Himalayas.<br />
Strange sounds, odors, and light effects<br />
emanate from crystal skulls, and they are said<br />
to have caused violence, physical injury, and<br />
even death. Are these uncanny objects our<br />
link to mankind’s dark, magical past?<br />

Axis of the World<br />
The Search for the Oldest<br />
American Civilization<br />
By Igor Witkowski<br />
Archeological sites around South America<br />
demonstrate that it was the origin of a great<br />
antediluvian civilization, with Easter Island<br />
as one of its crowning achievements.<br />
This book describes a multidisciplinary<br />
exploration of this lost civilization, delving<br />
into archaeological discoveries, ethnological<br />
relations, and even genetic research. There<br />
are several keys to this strange riddle of a<br />
missing millenial culture in disparate parts<br />
of the world.<br />
A SOUTH AMERICAN MILLENIAL CIVILIZATION<br />
The author creates a comprehensive picture<br />
of man’s past – one completely different<br />
from the standard academic truth – of this<br />
strange, almost unknown, advanced culture.<br />
Here is unequivocal evidence, based on facts<br />
that have simply been ignored for decades.<br />
Igor Witkowski is a Polish author and<br />
researcher living in Warsaw. He is the author<br />
of nearly a dozen books on the history of<br />
World War II, and is very well-known in his<br />
home country. This is his first book in<br />
English.<br />

Gravitational Manipulation<br />
of Domed Craft<br />
By Paul Potter<br />
For the first time, here are the scientific<br />
principles behind UFO propulsion dynamics,<br />
principles known and recognized by today’s<br />
physicists.<br />
This brand-new field of scientific research is<br />
based upon analysis of artifacts retrieved<br />
from crashed and damaged UFOs in Russia<br />
and America. Potter’s analyses of these UFO<br />
mechanisms are substantiated with references<br />
to a broad array of over 300 research papers<br />
published in scientific journals.<br />
Potter correlates many of the phenomena<br />
observed first-hand by close encounter<br />
witnesses and abductees with his scientific<br />
UFO propulsion deductions. He then<br />
pinpoints common themes, categorizing them<br />
according to known physical principles. His<br />
precise, even lavish, illustrations allow the<br />
reader to enter directly into his subject.<br />
Paul Potter is a British engineer and inventor<br />
who has been researching UFOs and flying<br />
saucer propulsion for over 30 years. This is<br />
his first book.<br />

The Rise<br />
Saunière’s Magical Workings<br />
and the Penitential Movement<br />
in Europe<br />
By Isaac ben Jacob and Sarah Fishberg<br />
In Medieval Europe an indomitable heresy<br />
infiltrated the Catholic hierarchy. This<br />
heresy was a penitent movement, based on a<br />
Babylonian Cult of the Dead.<br />
Their bizarre public spectacles – still seen<br />
today in the streets of Europe – include<br />
grisly acts of self-mortification, but these are<br />
simply smokescreens to draw attention away<br />
from the movement’s true workings.<br />
THE COVERT POLITICAL POWER<br />
OF CHRISTIAN PENITENTS<br />
The authors led a team of researchers<br />
tracking this movement from the Middle<br />
East to Italy, Germany and France.<br />
Ultimately, they realized that the mystery of<br />
Rennes-le-Château, linked with the<br />
extraordinary fortune of Bérenger Saunière,<br />
is another episode in the long and intriguing<br />
tale of this heretical penetential movement.<br />
The Rise reveals the long-secret battles between<br />
the Church hierarchy and various movements<br />
that have tried to penetrate and take it over –<br />
sometimes successfully!<br />

Masters of Deception<br />
Murder and Intrigue in the<br />
World of Occult Politics<br />
By Guy Patton<br />
“Masters of Deception should be considered as the third part<br />
of Holy Blood, Holy Grail and The Messianic Legacy!”<br />
– Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh and Henry Lincoln<br />
In 2003, the publication of The Da Vinci Code<br />
propelled the enigmatic Priory of Sion to<br />
international fame as the guardians of a<br />
sacred bloodline.<br />
But in truth, the Priory is an elite occult<br />
political organization, part of a shadowy<br />
world of secret societies which have<br />
attempted to influence governments and the<br />
fates of nations for centuries. It is an arcane<br />
world of symbols, archetypes, ritual and<br />
fantasy, where idealism, personal gain,<br />
egocentricity and criminality often blur.<br />
These Machiavellian groups have resorted to<br />
deception, fraud, blackmail and even<br />
murder in pursuit of hidden, and frequently<br />
sinister, goals. Guy Patton lays their<br />
manipulations bare.<br />
DETAILS ON SECRET SOCIETIES<br />
AND OCCULT POLITICS<br />
Guy Patton, president of The Rennes Group,<br />
has studied alternative history and occult<br />
politics for two decades. He has lived in<br />
Malta and London and currently makes his<br />
home in southern England. He is the author<br />
of Web of Gold (2000).<br />

Zionism, Militarism and<br />
the Decline of US Power<br />
By James Petras<br />
“Jim Petras is one of the best informed political scientists of his<br />
generation.”– Tom Brass, Editor, The Journal of Peasant<br />
Studies, Cambridge<br />
“James Petras is #59 in its list of America’s 100 most influential<br />
liberals (above Noam Chomsky and Stephen Colbert).”<br />
– The UK Daily Telegraph<br />
Coming to grips with the impact of the Israel<br />
Lobby on US policy is essential to bringing<br />
peace to the Middle East.<br />
Americans must restore public freedoms and<br />
take back our right to decide US foreign and<br />
domestic policy; however, criticizing the<br />
powerful public role of American Zionism is<br />
a big taboo. Never in US history has a tiny,<br />
foreign-linked, ethno-religious minority<br />
possessed so much influence.<br />
This book challenges the claims of Zionism,<br />
which argues that Israel is “just another<br />
lobby” by empirically examining several<br />
major US policies: Saudi military sales,<br />
intelligence estimates of Iran’s nuclear<br />
energy policy, and Congressional Middle<br />
East policy votes in 2007-<strong>2008</strong>.<br />

GRIPPING ACCOUNT OF<br />
DEVASTATION AND HOPE<br />
Margaret Trost was in her 30s when her<br />
husband died suddenly, leaving her to raise<br />
their young son alone. In despair, seeking<br />
meaning in her life and in her husband’s<br />
death, she visited Haiti in a pilgrimage of<br />
reverse mission, to serve the poor as a means<br />
to transform the providers. Trost worked in a<br />
hospice and in the horrific slums of Cité<br />
Soleil. As she struggled to make sense of such<br />
extreme conditions existing so near the US,<br />
she met and came to love the optimistic and<br />
enterprising Haitians. Readers have a frontrow<br />
seat as an unlikely group of friends<br />
creates a food program for Haiti’s poor<br />
children. In straightforward, conversational<br />
prose, Trost illuminates her passage from<br />
despair to hope.<br />
Margaret Trost is the founder and director of<br />
the What If? Foundation, which serves<br />
5,000 meals a week to Haiti’s children, and<br />
more. A former public TV producer, she<br />
now devotes all her time to What If? She<br />
lives in Berkeley, CA.<br />

A sensitive and personal portrayal featuring<br />
889 pictures of ten tribes from Thailand,<br />
Laos, Burma, Vietnam and the Philippines.<br />
This original and innovative book embodies<br />
traditions that have evolved over thousands<br />
of years and which are slowly vanishing. This<br />
is a lavish production and an invaluable<br />
historical record that combines anthropology<br />
and popular culture.<br />
“I chose to dedicate these pictures and stories to the tribes<br />
people themselves, in the hope that their way of life and<br />
works of art can be preserved through the protection<br />
afforded through public recognition. I offer this book as a<br />
testament to the resilience of the human spirit, recognizing<br />
in the lives of these tribes that essential strength resides,<br />
and the endurance of their culture is insured.”<br />

The Superferry Chronicles<br />
By Koohan Paik and Jerry Mander<br />
“[Jerry Mander is] the patriarch of the anti-globalization<br />
movement.”– Andrew Revkin, NYT, 2007<br />
“[Mander is] the Ralph Nader of advertising.”– Wall Street<br />
Journal, 1971<br />
A story of personal and political grass-roots<br />
empowerment, an unprecedented showdown<br />
against an unsought intrusion into the<br />
Hawaiian way of life.<br />
When an entrepreneur wanted to start a<br />
high-speed, inter-island ferry to connect<br />
Oahu with her neighbor islands, the idea was<br />
hijacked by a corporation with military ties<br />
to become a prototype of America’s seabased<br />
military strategy for the 21st Century.<br />
The project rode in on a wave of deception<br />
and corruption – from the governor’s office,<br />
to the Hawaii Superferry corporation.<br />

from entering the harbor, among other<br />

Rome-antic Delusions<br />
Art By Jeremy Fish<br />
“I wanted to immerse in a fascinating city and see if it increases or<br />
reduces the disillusion I feel every day.”– Jeremy Fish<br />
Drago invited Jeremy Fish to come to Rome<br />
and create site-specific works, a remix of<br />
Jeremy’s images, with an Italian touch added<br />
to his usual cast of characters and rich<br />
iconography.<br />
Fish’s symbiotic work with the Eternal City<br />
uses a library of symbols and characters to<br />
tell real-life narratives in a surreal way and<br />
alter the established order. His vivid imagination<br />
stems from his bilateral artistic<br />
persona, which combines solitary introspection<br />
with the exuberance of changing perspectives.<br />
Jeremy Fish received his BFA from the SFAI<br />
in 1996, then worked for the skateboard<br />
industry. His art deals with the relationship<br />
of all things cute and odd, using surreal<br />
narratives about real life – old and new,<br />
sweet and approachable. He lives in<br />
San Francisco.<br />

DRAGO’S 36 CHAMBERS SERIES<br />
In Drago’s 36 Chambers Series, each volume represents a metaphoric room for signature artists of the international independent art scene<br />
to express themselves in work which combines tradition and experimentation. Books in The 36 Chambers Series are always in B&W,<br />
with one further color (not necessarily florescent) of the artists choice.<br />
Muerte<br />
Art By Mike Giant<br />
Muerte is a celebration of the master of black<br />
ink, Mike Giant. Whether his medium is<br />
concrete, paper or skin, his signature style –<br />
made up of equal parts Mexican folk art and<br />
Japanese illustration – is unmistakable and<br />
internationally imitated. Hispanic culture plays<br />
a major role in his line-driven imagery, which<br />
evokes a strange nostalgia for a surreal time.<br />
Mike Giant is a prolific and versatile graffiti<br />
artist, illustrator and tattooist. Born in New<br />
York and raised in New Mexico, he studied<br />
architecture, then worked for Think<br />
Skateboards in San Francisco before<br />
expanding his artistic vision. He shows<br />
internationally, with a signature exhibition in<br />
Tokyo in 2002, and a 2005 show titled Giant<br />
vs. Giant with Shepard Fairey. His work will<br />
appear at the Bologna Art Fair in <strong>2008</strong>.<br />

Nation of Angela<br />
By Sophie Toulouse<br />
“What is there to do when you can have it all?”– Jean Baudrillard<br />
The most literary contribution to the 36<br />
Chambers series is Nation of Angela (N.o.A.), a<br />
multimedia project.<br />
N.o.A. is a utopian island where communal<br />
ideals coexist with fashion, glamour, and<br />
luxury – a lost paradise, a personal and<br />
political arcadia. But tensions reveal<br />
themselves in the most important event on<br />
the island, the battle between the N.o.A.<br />
army and the army of Fat Elvis.<br />
Angela’s citizens are post-modern magicians,<br />
with flat stomachs, Botoxed faces, full lips<br />
and silicon breasts. They are plastic bodies,<br />
transformed into parcels, whose main objective<br />
is to seduce the consumer. These irresistible<br />
packages conceal lethal weapons, an alchemy<br />
of fake pleasures, always affordable, including<br />
potions of sensuality for synthetic and<br />
illusory journeys. But it is useless to follow<br />
the instructions and “use with caution.”<br />
Sophie Toulouse is a French artist who mounts<br />
large-scale visual installations, created mostly<br />
digitally. She does commercial work in print<br />
and films and her clients include IBM,<br />
Galleries Lafayette, Hugo Boss, Nike and<br />
Universal. Her story is inspired by Kurt<br />
Vonnegut’s Cat’s Cradle, and the writing of<br />
Guy Debord. She lives in Paris.<br />

Dawn<br />
By Phil Elverum<br />
Dawn, an artist’s memoir, delves deeply into<br />
an intensely creative period of Elverum’s life<br />
in a beautiful mix of journal writing, jokes,<br />
photographs, and music.<br />
This hardcover collection chronicles Elverum’s<br />
solo winter in a cabin in arctic Norway,<br />
gathering wood and acting out myths – three<br />
months of unfiltered brain torrents<br />
interspersed with drawings.<br />
It comes with a 17-track CD of songs written<br />
during that time. The music of Mount Eerie<br />
and The Microphones, the revelatory text<br />
and detailed imagery are a very personal,<br />
almost voyeur-istic, view inside the mind of<br />
Phil Elverum.<br />
ALONE IN ARCTIC NORWAY<br />
WRESTLING WITH GHOSTS<br />
■ 16-page color photo booklet also included<br />
Phil Elverum was born on May 26th 1978 in<br />
Anacortes, WA. Once he realized that it was<br />
possible to make songs and books and<br />
pictures and not do any other work, he<br />
became hyperactive. It all culminated in the<br />
death-themed album Mount Eerie. In 2002 he<br />
went on an endless tour and stopped for the<br />
winter in northern Norway.<br />

Keep It Together!<br />
Cosmic Boogie with the<br />
Deviants and the Pink Fairies<br />
By Rich Deakin<br />
“Vividly captures the spirit of the times.”– Record Collector<br />
“This is British amphetamine psychosis music and if you don’t like<br />
it you can f*ck off and listen to your Iron Butterfly albums.”<br />
– Mick Farren of The Deviants<br />
“...it’s the story of a mob of reprobates that made every mistake<br />
imaginable and seemed destined for self-immolation but somehow,<br />
against all odds, keep coming back for one more try.”<br />
– Ken Shimamoto, I94bar.com<br />
The remarkable story of London’s 60s and<br />
70s communal bands from the perspective<br />
of its most crucial exponents, who were off<br />
their heads on meth.<br />
The Deviants and Pink Fairies were bands of<br />
the people: they gate-crashed festivals and<br />
sometimes played for free on a flatbed or<br />
shared a bill with Led Zeppelin or the<br />
Grateful Dead. They had an important place<br />
in a swinging scene that became ugly with<br />
hard drugs, bad acid, and street politics.<br />
Hawkwind, the Pretty Things, MC5,<br />
Tyrannosaurus Rex, Motorhead and Canned<br />
Heat were pilled-up geezers desperate for<br />
revolution… or at the very least, Top Of The Pops.<br />

The Complete History of<br />
Japanese Sex Cinema<br />
By Jasper Sharp<br />
“All you need to know about the cutting edge of Japanese film –<br />
animated, inventive and imaginative.”– Donald Richie<br />
The weird, wonderful world of the Japanese<br />
Pink Film and Roman Porno film genres.<br />
This lively, yet serious, exploration focuses<br />
on the art and industry of one of the most<br />
notorious sectors of Japanese filmmaking.<br />
Almost 100 such titles are still shot each year,<br />
and many noted Japanese filmmakers cut<br />
their teeth in this industry. Just how close<br />
are the links between the arthouse and the<br />
grindhouse in Japan? Read about:<br />
■ Japanese censorship from WWII to today<br />
■ how topless pearl-diving girls became 50s Pink stars<br />
■ how a nature documentarian helmed nude female<br />
Tarzan movies<br />
■ how 60s mavericks Koji Wakamatsu and Masao Adachi<br />
met with John and Yoko at Cannes while on their way to<br />
the Golan Heights to make a film about Palestinian<br />
revolutionaries<br />
■ how Deep Throat’s Harry Reems starred in a zany<br />
Tokyo sex comedy about a penis transplant gone awry<br />

Of Kids & Parents<br />
By Emil Hakl<br />
Translated By Marek Tomin<br />
“This virile sentimentality is quite exceptional in contemporary art<br />
and is ultimately the real core of Hakl’s writing, though at first<br />
glance it might seem that this core has been fragmented into<br />
anecdotes.”– Jiri Penas, Tyden<br />
“...one of the more interesting Czech writers today.”– Jan Culik,<br />
Britské listy<br />
In Europe, taking a walk is a cultural<br />
phenomenon of almost mystical import. It<br />
connects physical activity with meditation,<br />
the silence within amid the tumult without.<br />

HISTORY TOLD OVER BEER<br />
Inspired by Joyce’s Ulysses and Hrabal’s stream<br />
of anecdote, Of Kids & Parents is about a father and<br />
son walking through Prague, stopping in pubs<br />
and bars, their personal lives entwined with sixty<br />
years of upheaval in their small corner of<br />
Europe. Their personal history is inseparable<br />
from the larger History that is played out on<br />
the world’s stage: families are uprooted,<br />
relationships fail, yet life goes on as it always<br />
does. The father tells his son: “Nothing’s been new<br />
in this world for more than two billion years, it’s all just<br />
variations on the same theme of carbon, hydrogen, helium, and<br />
nitrogen.” His point is that though Prague has<br />
experienced monarchy, democracy, fascism,<br />
communism, and democratic capitalism – as<br />
wars, putsches, and revolutions have come<br />
and gone – what really has changed?<br />
Emil Hakl was born in Prague in 1958. A<br />
graduate of the Jaroslav Jelek Conservatorium,<br />
he was a manual laborer under the<br />
Communist regime. From 1996 to 2000 he<br />
worked for an ad agency, then began to write,<br />
poetry, novels, short stories, reviews and<br />
essays. His work appears in anthologies and<br />
magazines in English, German, and French.<br />

Aquamarine<br />
Final Tales of the Revolution<br />
By Peter Pessl<br />
Translated By Mark Kanak<br />
“Peter Pessl’s art is dreamy. A chaos of individual fragments are<br />
brought together so sharply and meticulously that the flickering<br />
before the reader’s eyes unexpectedly takes shape as an elegiac<br />
underpainting.”– Basler Zeitung<br />
Aquamarine is a novel comprised of seven tales<br />
exploring the unfolding of an idea, taking<br />
some “blue, yellow and beiges, or legcolored<br />
ideas” and wrapping them around<br />
like a coiled garden hose with all its awkward<br />
convolutions, each loop having its own<br />
radius but belonging to the same loop:<br />
revolution in every sense.<br />
Aquamarine, a fluid like water, is a compound of<br />
two elements: language and imagery flowing<br />
over Mexican landscapes and cities, in both<br />
external and internal geographies.<br />
The revolution is the river: the people, and<br />
places come and go, are drawn from the ether<br />
about us, and disappear again into<br />
nothingness, which is a something-ness – if<br />
the narrator chooses it to be.<br />
WHITHER THE REVOLUTION?<br />
Peter Pessl was born 1963 in Germany. Since<br />
his first book appeared in 1984, he has<br />
published a number of volumes of poetry,<br />
prose, and radio plays, as well as creating<br />
work for audio spaces, installations, and<br />
performances. He lives in Vienna.<br />

The Old Battle-Ax /<br />
Dark Power<br />
By Elizabeth Sanxay Holding<br />
Introduction By Gregory Shepard<br />
“Back in the early ‘30s, before anybody ever heard of psychological<br />
novels of suspense, Elisabeth Sanxay Holding was writing them,<br />
and brilliantly. For subtlety, realistic conviction, and incredible<br />
economy, she’s in a class by herself.”– Anthony Boucher<br />
The Old Battle-Ax (Simon & Schuster, 1943):<br />
It starts with a lie: Mrs. Herriott’s sister<br />
Madge comes back from Europe, but is found<br />
dead on the sidewalk the next morning. Mrs.<br />
Herriott tells the police she doesn’t know the<br />
dead woman, but one lie leads to another.<br />
Her niece Carla even dresses up like Madge<br />
to continue the deception. Why is everyone<br />
trying to keep Madge’s death a secret?<br />
Dark Power (Vanguard, 1930):<br />
Diana Leonard goes to the Châlet at the<br />
invitation of her long-lost Uncle Peter, but<br />
finds the family reunion shattered by<br />
suspicion. Her Aunt Emma is a stern,<br />
domineering woman, a professor of<br />
psychology who conducts experiments on<br />
cretin children. Peter is a fool or a sadist,<br />
and their son is a guilt-ridden alcoholic.<br />
Can Diana survive her stay in the Châlet?<br />
“THE TOP SUSPENSE WRITER OF THEM ALL.”<br />
– RAYMOND CHANDLER<br />
Elizabeth Sanxay Holding was born in Brooklyn<br />
in 1889 and married British diplomat George<br />
E. Holding. They traveled widely before<br />
settling in Bermuda. She published 25 novels<br />
in her lifetime – 19 of them mysteries – and<br />
many short stories. She died in 1955.<br />

A Latouche County Mystery<br />
By Sheila Simonson<br />
“Sheila Simonson can always be relied on for appealing, intelligent<br />

galore.”– Carola Dunn, the Daisy Dalrymple mysteries<br />

Sheriff’s investigator Rob Neill made a mess<br />
of his first case, the theft of sacred artifacts<br />
belonging to the Klalo, a Native American<br />

River Gorge.<br />
Ten years later, a stolen petroglyph emerges –<br />
along with a body buried in a garage. Neill<br />
sees a chance to redeem himself, with the help<br />
of his new neighbor, librarian Meg McLean.<br />
Her information-retrieval skills work well<br />
with the police investigation – but the<br />
partnership turns unprofessionally romantic.<br />
Meanwhile, two more people are murdered,<br />
and the Klalo’s feisty chief, Madeline Thomas,<br />
has her own agenda that hinders as much as<br />
helps. Can a kind of justice finally come to<br />
Latouche County?<br />
Sheila Simonson, a lifelong Pacific Northwest<br />

Vivo<br />
The Life of Gustav Meyrink<br />
By Mike Mitchell<br />
Here is the first English bio of the cult<br />
author of The Golem, written by a prizewinning<br />
scholar and translator.<br />
The illegitimate son of an aristocratic<br />
politician and an actress, Meyrink established<br />
himself as a banker in Prague, while achieving<br />
notoriety as a dandy, rake, and sportsman.<br />
About to commit suicide, he chanced on a<br />
pamphlet about life after death, put his<br />
revolver away and started a lifelong interest in<br />
the occult. He unmasked false mediums and<br />
experimented with alchemy, drugs and<br />
clairvoyance until an affair of honor led him<br />
to challenge the entire Prague officer corps,<br />
setting machinations in motion which<br />
resulted in his being wrongly imprisoned. His<br />
bank then collapsed and he became a writer.<br />
So many stories collected around him, it is<br />
often difficult to distinguish fact from<br />
fiction, legend from life. This remarkable<br />
life of Meyrink allows him, and those who<br />
knew him, to speak in their own words<br />
wherever possible.<br />

THE GOLEM’S AUTHOR<br />
Mike Mitchell, an academic with a special<br />

Approach to Cancer Prevention<br />
& Support<br />
By The Health Experts of the Doctors’<br />
Prescription for Healthy Living<br />
An exploration of the revolutionary approach<br />

by Dr. Beljanski, who spent thirty years at<br />
the prestigious Pasteur Institute in Paris.<br />
This volume includes<br />
■ protocols<br />
■ case histories<br />
Mirko Beljanski’s discovery of destabilized<br />
DNA – and the specific plant molecules that<br />
can help restore DNA to a healthy state to stop<br />
cancer cells from replicating – have led to<br />
many miraculous cures and prolonged survival<br />
for thousands of cancer patients, including<br />
French President Francois Mitterand.<br />
Well-known, before now, only in France,<br />
where citizens picketed in the streets to be<br />
able to use the same protocols which<br />
extended the life of President Mitterand,<br />
Beljanski’s protocols are now gaining<br />
popularity in the US.<br />

By Jewel Hernandez<br />
Illustrated By R. Michael Mithuna<br />
Being Born is a picture book for expectant<br />
parents and their young children, giving a<br />
warm and friendly overview of a doula’s role.<br />
A doula is a healthcare professional who offers<br />
educational, physical, emotional and practical<br />
support to a pregnant woman – before,<br />
during and after the birth of her child.<br />
FIRST CHILD’S BOOK ON<br />
THE ROLE OF THE DOULA<br />
■ there are 7,000 certified US doulas, with 2,000 new<br />
doulas trained each year<br />
This book celebrates birth – as a natural and<br />
whole-family experience in both its text and<br />
images. The ideas are in clear, childappropriate<br />
language.<br />
■ and, unlike most books on childbirth (for children or<br />
adults), Being Born acknowledges that birth takes<br />
place in a variety of settings with a variety of caregivers<br />
Jewel Hernandez is a certified doula with<br />
DONA, Doulas of North America, and a<br />
midwifery intern. She received her BA in<br />
Studio Art from the College of St. Rose, and<br />

By Yusaku Hanakuma<br />
Translated By Ryan Sands<br />
Horror-comedy manga about two bluecollar<br />
factory workers and jiu-jitsu experts who<br />
deal with a zombie uprising in Tokyo.<br />
Fujio and Mitsuo dream of training in martial<br />
arts overseas and becoming famous. When they<br />
accidentally kill their boss, they bury him at<br />
a man-made garbage mountain known as<br />
Dark Fuji, where tons of rotting garbage have<br />
been contaminated with industrial waste which,<br />

into ravenous, flesh-eating zombies.<br />
Fuji and Mitsuo try their best to survive in this<br />
horrific new landscape, but the hapless pair<br />
become separated after an idiotic mistake<br />
involving potato chips and a stray dog.<br />

This first volume spans the years 1907-1937<br />
and his development as a promising young<br />
artist, including: childhood and schoolboy<br />
sketches, first published drawings, illustrations,<br />
graphic design, ads, the occasional painting,<br />
and, of course, his comics.<br />
■ presented in chronological order<br />
■ high quality reproductions<br />
■ all images accompanied by concise commentary<br />
Philippe Goddin, born in 1944, is an expert on<br />
Herge’s life and oeuvre, studying Herge’s work<br />
for more than 30 years. He has published several<br />
books on the subject, and knew Herge personally.<br />

The first definitive, comprehensive<br />
compendium of the works of Boyd Rice, the<br />
provocative, controversial, underground<br />
post-punk figure. In the 1980s, Rice emerged<br />
as a cultural force promoting pranks, strange<br />
cult films and industrial culture with Re-<br />
Search. His vanguard exhibition of found<br />
photographs, readymade thrift store art, as<br />
well as his endorsements of outsider music,<br />
tiki culture and bygone pop culture, sealed his<br />
reputation. He is notorious for his public<br />
associations with nefarious figures including<br />
Charles Manson and Anton LaVey. Includes:<br />
■ Essays 1986–2007<br />
■ Lyrics 1988–2007<br />
■ Art & Photography (38 plates)<br />
■ biography of Rice from the 1970s to the present<br />
Boyd Rice is a pioneering noise musician and<br />

musician, performer, artist, photographer,<br />

Tag Town<br />
The Evolution of New York<br />
Graffiti Writing<br />
Photographs By Martha Cooper<br />
Foreword By Tobias Barenthin Lindblad<br />
Tag Town is the first book to show early urban<br />
tags (1963-82) in their context in NYC.<br />
Tags are designed street names, written in the<br />
public domain. Burrowing their way into the<br />
big cities of the world, tags both annoy and<br />
tell stories. Here, they tell of how the biggest<br />
and most vital artistic trend of the late 20th<br />
Century originated among young people.<br />
The earliest tags in New York were developed<br />
in Washington Heights and North Manhattan.<br />
Cooper documented backyards, bridge<br />
supports, parks and pedestrian tunnels with<br />
the precision of an ethnographer when the<br />
walls were still a forgotten gallery of tags<br />
from the 60s and 70s.<br />
Martha Cooper has documented hip-hop<br />
culture since 1980 and is the author of<br />
Subway Art, New York State of Mind, Hip Hop Files,<br />
We B Girlz and Street Play. She lives in NYC.<br />
Tobias Barenthin Lindblad is editor of<br />
Overground and Overground 2, as well as The<br />
Beautiful Struggle and the graffiti magazine<br />
Underground Productions, UP, since 1992.<br />

“A new landmark and a starting-point for new writing.”– Roland Barthes<br />

brutal carnage into<br />
intimate collision with<br />
relentless sex acts.<br />

The Case of<br />
Charles Dexter Ward<br />
By H. P. Lovecraft<br />
Introduction By D. M. Mitchell<br />
The only full-length work of fiction by H.P.<br />
Lovecraft, the master of 20th century<br />
horror, which inspired Roger Corman’s The<br />
Haunted Palace and Lucio Fulci’s The Beyond.<br />
This new edition also includes:<br />
■ Lovecraft’s rare History of the Necronomicon<br />
■ a challenging new introduction by D. M. Mitchell, the<br />
authority on Lovecraft<br />
A nameless terror surges through the<br />
centuries to engulf the soul of Charles<br />
Dexter Ward, a brilliant New England<br />
antiquarian. Evil spirits, malefic gods whose<br />
memories live on in whispered legends, still<br />
lurk in vile catacombs beneath the surface of<br />
a blighted land. Ward is driven to unleash<br />
these loathsome horrors upon a defenseless<br />
world, possessed by his demonic ancestor<br />
Joseph Curwen, a warlock steeped in the<br />
blackest arts of magic. Now Ward, too, must<br />
master these obscene rituals and pay the<br />
price in blood. Human blood.<br />
H. P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) is the most<br />
influential horror writer of the Twentieth<br />
Century. His occult nightmares and cosmic<br />
terrors have drawn praise from William S.<br />
Burroughs, Angela Carter and Jorge Luis<br />
Borges, and continue to inspire new<br />
generations of artists.<br />

Movie Sets 101<br />
The Definitive Survivor’s Guide<br />
New Revised Edition<br />
By Paul J. Salamoff<br />
Illustrated By Bill Zahn<br />
“Indispensable introductory guide to the modern-day movie set.”<br />
– Sheigh Crabtree, The Hollywood Reporter<br />
“A must read ... spells out the politics of production brilliantly and<br />
with humor.”– Chris Gore, The Ultimate Film Festival<br />
Survival Guide<br />
Comprehensive, entertaining and fresh, this is<br />
the first professional overview of movie set rules<br />
of behavior – rules not taught in film schools.<br />
Full of in-depth information from industry<br />
pros, and organized around the different<br />
jobs on movie sets, each chapter offers:<br />
■ a description of each job: Grip, Electrician, Producer, etc.<br />
■ practical, witty advice from 70 top industry professionals<br />
■ terrific on-the-set anecdotes about mistakes, snafus<br />
and screw-ups<br />
■ lists a job glossary<br />
Some of the many interesting rules include:<br />
■ when taking flash photography, yell out, “Flashing!” so<br />
the Electricians know the light is from a camera and not<br />
a burned-out bulb<br />
■ the apple boxes found on sets are not chairs, but useful tools<br />
■ never throw out your personal garbage while working<br />
on a set. Trash can become misconstrued as a prop and<br />
lead to continuity errors<br />
Paul J. Salamoff parlayed his obsession for<br />
genre filmmaking into a successful run as a<br />
Special F/X make-up artist, a producer,<br />
writer, director, author and film executive.<br />
In his eighteen years in the business, he has<br />
worked on 50+ films, 10 television series, and<br />

The endgame is one facet of chess which garners the<br />

the most payoff. Openings and tactics cannot help<br />
you unless you can convert them to a win once you<br />
reach the endgame. The material includes:<br />
■ Basic Knowledge, which needs to be second nature<br />
■ What You Should Know, endgames of all types<br />
■ Kicking It Up A Notch, how to play both as defender<br />
and aggressor<br />

Lasker’s Manual of Chess<br />
By Emanuel Lasker<br />
Foreword By Mark Dvoretsky<br />
This classic manual was first published over<br />
80 years ago and remains relevant today.<br />
Lasker was both a wonderful fighter and a<br />
deep thinker, and his book is the<br />
quintessence of his successful experiences, as<br />
well as his thoughts about chess. He teaches<br />
general principles and methods applicable to<br />
any situation, beginning at the most basic<br />
level – explaining the board, the pieces and<br />
how they move. Then he describes the<br />
fundamentals of chess strategy, chess tactics<br />
and even chess philosophy. Includes:<br />
■ dozens of archival photographs of Lasker and his<br />
contemporaries<br />
■ a section on Lasker Lore<br />
■ highlights of the chess history and trivia of the Lasker era<br />
■ special foreword to this new edition by Mark Dvoretsky<br />
MODERN, 21ST-CENTURY EDITION<br />
OF THIS CHESS CLASSIC<br />
Emanuel Lasker, (1868-1941) was the Second<br />
World Chess Champion. He held the title<br />
from 1894 until 1921 and is considered by<br />
many as the greatest chess player in history.<br />
Although his place in chess history would be,<br />
in any case, secure, his three books, Lasker’s<br />
Manual of Chess, Common Sense in Chess and St.<br />

Endgame Workshop<br />
Principles for the Practical Player<br />
By Bruce Pandolfini<br />
Pandolfini doesn’t believe the endgame is separate<br />
from the opening and middle games. He argues that<br />
the game is an organic whole, with everything<br />
related, and that what happens earlier can explain<br />
what happens later. He also demonstrates the<br />
endgame’s special characteristics. Here is the<br />
standard and basic information, with a critical eye to<br />
circumstances. By playing through the book, a<br />
player should come away with a full array of tactical<br />
and strategic weapons.<br />
