Written by Dan Abnett. Art by Simon Coleby.

Chaos blights the Imperial world of Nicodemus, and Inquisitor Defay and his young apprentice Gravier are dispatched to investigate its cause.

Aided by Sarthos, an Ecclesiarchy cardinal, the two Inquisitors set about dispensing the Emperor's divine retribution upon the heretic scum. But the infestation of Nicodemus runs deeper than even Defay could have imagined.

1st printing. By Steven A. Galipeau. An analysis of modern myth and symbol. Jungian analyst Galipeau believes that the story of Star Wars speaks to our deepest psychological and spiritual dilemmas. From Leia's domination by Darth Vader (the feminine/masculine pairing) to the introduction of The Force (a parallel of Jung's collective unconscious), from the Ewoks (nature and instinct), to the Stormtroopers (soulless technology), Galipeau shows how and why the movies' themes and conflicts mirror our own. Includes 12 black-and-white illustrations. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 300 pages, Text (with B&W Chapter Illustrations). Cover price $19.95.

By Ted Nomura. AP Core Title! "Queens of the Seas": In 1945, the United States Navy suffered its biggest crisis of survival due to the intense Japanese Kamikaze attacks. The kamikazes' main targets were the fleet carriers, better known to most as the "Queens of the Seas." Although the U.S. Navy's submarine forces were providing a most valuable "silent service" by sinking more than 50% of the enemy ships using less than 10% of their naval strength, it was the American aircraft carriers that took the brunt of the Japanese attention due to their high visibility. Their escort ships often sacrificed themselves to draw the enemy fire away from the primary target. No chapter in history displayed such courage under fire as when enemies committing suicide to achieve their mission were so alien to the men who faced them. In this alternate-1946 history, the invasion of Japan placed the carriers in even more danger. Three new armored-deck Midway-class carriers can only slow down the steel-plated rain of blood and guts. Bi-monthly. b&w, 24pgs. Cover price $2.95.
