Volume 111- 1st printing. "The Hun!" Written by Nic Fields. Art by Christa Hook. The Huns were the most feared barbarians of the Ancient world, known to their Roman enemies as the 'scourge of god'. Superb horsemen and excellent archers, they fought with a reflex composite-bow that could penetrate armour at 100 metres. In battle they would rush into the fray with surprising speed and apparent chaos, maintaining an incessant barrage until the enemy was sufficiently weakened; thus their very name came to epitomise swift, merciless destruction. This book explores the rise of the Huns and their development in terms of equipment, tactics and society, from their first attacks on the Goths to the death of the Emperor Justinian, including the great battle of Chalons and the reign of Attila. Softcover, 64 pages, PC/PB&W Cover price $18.95.

Volume 112- 1st printing. "US Marine Rifleman 1939-45!" Written by Gordon L Rottman. Art by Howard Gerrard. The Marine Corps began World War II with less than 66,000 officers and men. Yet despite suffering 10 per cent of the overall American casualties, the Marines were able to build on their proud traditions and history to transform a small branch of service into a premier combined arms amphibious assault force. Regardless of its expansion by 750 percent, the Corps was able to maintain its sense of tradition, instill that into thousands of new Marines, and create an elite arm of service. In this book, Gordon Rottman, follows a Marine Corps rifleman through his draft, training and participation in assaults such as: Roi-Namur in the Marshall Islands, Saipan and Tinian in the Mariana Islands, and Iwo Jima. Softcover, 64 pages, PC/PB&W. Cover price $18.95.

This issue is the conclusion of a four issue story arc that documents Joe's obsessive "editing" of porn videos.

This is Joe Matt at his lowest ebb, a harrowing and yet still darkly funny portrait of an artist as misanthropic porn fiend. 6-in. x 9-in., 28 pages, B&W with red. Mature Readers. Cover price $4.95.
