    Into the Jungle! TPB (2023 UPoM) A Boy's Comic Strip History of World War II 1-1ST


    (see more images)

    1st printing.

    Story and art by Jimmy Kugler. Compiled with an Introduction by Michael Kugler.

    Near the end of World War II and after, a small-town Nebraska youth, Jimmy Kugler, drew more than a hundred double-sided sheets of comic strip stories. Over half of these six-panel tales retold the Pacific War as fought by "Frogs" and "Toads," humanoid creatures brutally committed to a kill-or-be-killed struggle. Michael Kugler reproduces the never-before-published comics of his father's adolescent imagination as a microhistory of American youth in that formative era.

    Also included in Into the Jungle! A Boy's Comic Strip History of World War II are the likely comic book models for these stories and inspiration from news coverage in newspapers, radio, movies, and newsreels.

    Softcover, 8-in. x 8-in., 224 pages, B&W.

    1st printing.

    Written by Scott Bryan Wilson. Art and cover by Bob Solanovicz.

    Eating candy nonstop and watching TV all day sounds great . . . until you actually do it, as the kids of Bayport High find out when all the adults vanish, and the world's greatest (high school) detectives--the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew!--have to team up to solve the mystery! Whether it's going under cover, sneaking out at night, chasing weird buses, or following a strange smell, they know it'll take all their wits and smarts to get their parents and teachers back . . . that is, if Joe and Frank don't kill each other first. Oh, and there's also the matter of the skeleton that can walk. And a major feud with a rival high school. And a koala-in-a-diaper costume. And lawlessness in the hallways. And an unrequited crush . . .

    Written by Scott Bryan Wilson (Batman Annual, Star Trek: Waypoint) and drawn by Bob Solanovicz (Mister Meow), NANCY DREW AND THE HARDY BOYS: THE MYSTERY OF THE MISSING ADULTS! is a high-octane, nonstop comedic romp full of action, excitement, mystery, and friendship.

    (see more images)

    1st printing.

    Story and art by Damian Alexander.

    Damian is the new kid at school, and he has a foolproof plan to avoid the bullying that's plagued him his whole childhood: he's going to stop talking. Starting on the first day of seventh grade, he won't utter a word. But his vow of silence doesn't work-his classmates can tell there's something different about him.

    His family doesn't look like the kind on TV: his mother is dead, his father is gone, and he's being raised by his grandparents in a low-income household. And Damian does things that boys aren't supposed do, like play with Barbies instead of GI Joe. Kids have teased him about this his whole like, especially other boys. But if boys can be so cruel, why does Damian have a crush on one?

    Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 208 pages, full color.
