Volume 2 - 1st printing. "The Art of Alessandro Biffignandi!"

Between the late 1960s and the late 1980s, Italy went crazy for "sexy fumetti," a home-grown genre of adult comics with a unique brand of twisted humor, violence, and up-front sexuality.

One of the most talented and prolific of the cover artists at Edifumetto, the foremost Italian producer of adult comics during this period, was Alessandro Biffignandi, whose work featured horror, fantasy, and sci-fi elements alongside plenty of naked female flesh.

This book is a collection of some of the sexiest examples of Biffigandi's cover art for Edifumetto, which is highly coveted by collectors today.

Volume 4 - 1st printing.

Foreword By Y. El-Droubie.

The Sex and Horror series celebrates the 1960s and '70s publishing phenomenon known as "fumetti sexy" - Italian adult comics with a unique take on such genres as horror, crime, fantasy, history and fairy tales. Wilder and weirder than you can imagine, they were some of the most outrageous and shocking comics ever produced. These weren't underground publications: they were mass market and their highly erotic covers were seen on every newsstand and kiosk across the country.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer has become an enduring feature in modern pop culture, spawning television spin-offs, rabid fans, and significant scholarly inquiry. Though there have been numerous books devoted to the work of Joss Whedon, this collection of fifteen essays is the first to focus specifically on the sexual rhetoric found in his oeuvre, which includes Angel, Firefly/Serenity, Dollhouse, and Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, as well as Buffy. Together these essays constitute a much-needed addition to the expanding body of Whedon gender scholarship.

Shadowline presents a stunning portfolio of more than two decades of McCaig's masterful concept designs and storyboards, cover art and illustrations, as well as his private sketchbooks and personal paintings, all woven together within the confines of an engrossing, otherworldly journey to his creative realm: Shadowline.

This revised edition includes bonus content featuring pieces from McCaig's work on Guardians of the Galaxy, The Avengers, and more.

Volume 1 - 1st printing. "Of Treasures and Thieves!"

Story and art by Stephan Franck.

There are only two kinds of objects in this world. The ones that shine and the ones that don't.

James Finnigan only concerns himself with objects from the first category. Those objects don't hide in plain sight. They hide in dark places.

When Finnigan loses his grifter gang's lifetime fortune in a heist gone wrong, he stumbles on a consolation prize in the crypt of the Harker Foundation-a notebook that tells of an ancient, immeasurable treasure, accompanied by a bar of pure silver to prove it. It's a tall tale, but also Finnigan's only lead.

In an effort to make up for what he's lost, he mounts the heist of the millennium in search of the Silver Dragon. Just one catch: The famed treasure is said to be hidden in a castle full of vampires.
