Big Man Plans

Following on the heels of THE NOBODY, his Vertigo graphic novel debut, writer/artist Jeff Lemire pens his very first ongoing series SWEET TOOTH. A cross between Bambi and Cormac McCarthy's The Road, SWEET TOOTH tells the story of Gus, a rare new breed of human/animal hybrid children, has been raised in isolation following an inexplicable pandemic that struck a decade earlier. Now, with the death of his father he's left to fend for himself . . . until he meets a hulking drifter named Jepperd who promises to help him. Jepperd and Gus set out on a post-apocalyptic journey into the devastated American landscape to find 'The Preserve' a refuge for hybrids.
This unique and haunting new series is written and illustrated by Eisner-nominated creator Lemire (The Essex County Trilogy) and colored by fellow Eisner nominee Jose Villarubia.

En racontant l'histoire d'Ethan Ringler, en rupture avec sa famille anglaise et en quête de ses racines indiennes, Denis-Pierre Filippi signe une véritable saga épique, celle d'un jeune candide dont le destin va irrémédiablement s'inscrire dans l'histoire des États-Unis, alors en plein développement, une saga qui n'est pas sans rappeler Little Big Man. À la recherche de ses origines, mais manquant de pistes tangibles pour mener à bien rapidement sa quête, Ethan erre entre deux mondes : celui du bien qui lui a donné son insigne d'agent fédéral et celui du mal dans lequel il est infiltré et où il se surprend parfois à se complaire.

Some folks just get around, and the SheBuccaneer is certainly one of those, all the while wearing a double-death's head bikini. And she ain't sightseeing, mind--she's a pirate captain moonlighting as a harem girl on her way to a stint with the East India Company while battling other pirates, demons, devils, automatons, a genie and maybe even a minor deity of two, yet somehow managing not to bust a strap while engaging in the sexiest swashbuckling ever to set sail on the seven seas. This, in a nutshell describes Will and Heidi Hughes' bi-monthly up to Issue #6, enough for some to hoist their mizzen-mast and shiver their timbers.

Award-winning writer Brian K. Vaughan (PRIDE OF BAGHDAD, Y-THE LAST MAN) deftly combines big city politics and superheroes in this much lauded series. Now, the entire critically acclaimed series written by Brian K. Vaughan, one of the writers of LOST, is collected into a five volume series. In this fourth volume, Mayor Mitchell Hundred is summoned to Rome for an audience with the Pope. But as Hundred makes his travel plans, he is unaware of the assassin who has him in his sights.

is a new ongoing stark sci-fi series published by Cartoon Books written, drawn and lettered by Jeff Smith, the visionary writer and artist behind the epic fantasy and . The title character Rasl (which Smith pronounces "rassle") is an art thief searching for his next big score--and trying to escape his past. Where other thieves plan their heists with breathtaking precision, Rasl has an ace up his sleeve--he can travel through the light between dimensions, affording him access to museums that no ordinary thief could access. Yet the subtext is decidedly adult; Rasl smokes and and drinks to ease the discomfort he feels after jumping in and out of different realms; he has various sexual relationships with women (possibly with different versions of the same women) who are shown in various stages of undress; and Rasl's body is constantly abused, whether by physical altercation or voyaging through the Drift, leaving him very bruised and bloody at times. The tech explored here is interesting, and the storyline that focuses on a brilliant scientist on the path of becoming a multiverse art thief with bad habits makes this series, with its original 32-page-per-issue quarterly period of publication, worth the wait. Starting issue #5 Jeff Smith reduced the page count to 24 in an attempt to keep the book on a bi-monthly schedule for its duration which is tentatively planned to run for approximately two years and, like , will be solely created by Smith.
