Wraparound Cover by German Noble. Written by David Lapham. Art by German Nobile. In an age of depravity, one man's appetites horrified the entire Roman Empire. The very Empire he ruled. Some stories are passed from one generation to the next only in secret. Told in hushed whispers as the very words are too horrific to speak aloud for fear they offend the Gods. A Roman Empire built on the blood of its people, a ruler who began as a generous man but who ended as the most debased of monarchs. One name still speaks volumes of how absolute power can corrupt: Caligula. David Lapham unveils a new tale of Caligula -- he was not just a man drunk on power, he was possessed. A modern master of horror, Lapham digs deep into the world of Rome 37 AD and offers a unique epic of horror. Joined by new talent German Nobile, who promises to serve up fully-painted pages dripping with blood, this all-new, full-color series will be six issues of evil that will make any Crossed fan smile with glee. For in the age of Caligula, all roads lead to Hell. 32 pages, full color. Mature Readers 18+ Cover price $3.99.

The one name that still speaks volumes of how absolute power can corrupt: Caligula.

Felix must play along if he's to find out the secret behind Caligula's mysterious supernatural power over life and death.

1st printing. By Michael Kupperman. Michael Kupperman has already indulged his love for Mark Twain in the pages of Tales Designed to Thrizzle, but the recent publication of Twain's (real) autobiography inspired the cartoonist to a full-blown book-length masterpiece of hilarity. See how Twain hunted the Yeti, met the Six Million Dollar Man, had a love affair with Mamie Eisenhower, and accidentally became involved in X-rated films, all augmented with Kupperman's hilariously deadpan comics and illustrations. hardcover, 6-in. x 8-in., 144 pages, PC. Cover price $19.99.

Minute Man was a promotional comic book distributed by Sovereign Service Stations. This booklet tells the tale of the first battle of the Revolutionary War.
