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 />

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 />

Ten Southeast Asian Tribes<br />

“...an experimental photographer of amazing ability.”<br />

– San Francisco Chronicle and New York’s Village Voice<br />

“...beautiful and compelling.”– Kathleen Berrin, The Fine Arts<br />

Museums of San Francisco<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 />

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 />

Behind the Pink Curtain<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 />

website Midnight Eye, curated London’s<br />

Raindance Film Festival, and is a film advisor to<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 />

her sole remaining friend is accused of theft,<br />

arson, and murder, Hilda has to find new<br />

make no sense. In the hard economic times<br />

of 1904, with bank failures weekly, Hilda<br />

Bend by forming a Boys’ Club modeled after<br />

Buffalo Bill’s Defunct<br />

A Latouche County Mystery<br />

By Sheila Simonson<br />

“Sheila Simonson can always be relied on for appealing, intelligent<br />

protagonists, witty dialogue, a great sense of place, and suspense<br />

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

“Buffalo Bill’s Defunct had me from the title. The book’s plot,<br />

characters, setting, and theme all click together just right to make<br />

for highly entertaining reading.”– Bill Crider, the Sheriff Dan<br />

Rhodes 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 />

tribe from the western end of the Columbia<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 />

FIRST BIOGRAPHY IN ENGLISH OF<br />

THE GOLEM’S AUTHOR<br />

Mike Mitchell, an academic with a special<br />

interest in Austrian literature and culture,<br />

has been a freelance literary translator since<br />

1995, is a Dedalus Editorial Director and is<br />

This volume includes<br />

■ protocols<br />

■ case histories<br />

Mirko Beljanski’s discovery of destabilized<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 />

able to use the same protocols which<br />

extended the life of President Mitterand,<br />

Beljanski’s protocols are now gaining<br />

Being Born:<br />

The Doula’s Role<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 />

was the illustrator for Rosie the Shopping Cart<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 />

naturally, transforms the bodies of the dead<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 />

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 />

countercultural icon, playing the roles of<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 />

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 />

many commercials. He is also moderator for<br />

you unless you can convert them to a win once you<br />

reach the endgame. The material includes:<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 />

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 />
