KOTIMAISET UUTUUDET
Tähtitieteilijän vaimon paluu!
Anna Forsiuksen ovelle tupsahtaa ystävä, pallo jalassa ja lapsi ynnä tuomio tulossa. Ei hyvä. Minkälainen on maailma, jossa tällaista voi tapahtua – varmaan sellainen satojen vuosien takainen, josta Kati Rapian Voimia! lähtee mielettömälle matkalleen.
Kolme naista päätyy skandalöösisti käyttämään ajattelua ja pinnistämään kohti tulevaisuutta tutkiakseen, mikä voisi olla toisin. Heidän matkansa liidättää heidät jonnekin, ehkä Heinolaan, ei sillä niin väliä, sillä mitä ilmeisimmin tulevaisuus ei ole ehkä sitten kuitenkaan aivan valmis. Purkutöitä tarvitaan yhä.
Voimia! on tosi fantasia älykkäistä ja sanavalmiista ihmisistä, joiden määrätty paikka on koti ja jossa voimien hetket ovat harvassa, mutta eivät mahdottomia.
Kati Rapian ote, sekä kuvallinen että kielellinen – niin historialliseen aineistoon kuin silkkaan fabulaan, näyttää, kuinka me kaikki elämme historian jatkumossa, eikä rajaa menneen ja nykyisen väliin ole yksioikoista vetää.

While the world embraces fascism born of fear, the Joneses realize they face grave consequences if they are exposed as “Reborns.”
Do they keep a low profile and hide in plain sight…or use their powers for good and risk exposure?

“A refreshingly modern and surprisingly poignant take on the Hades and Persephone myth . . . steamy, often laugh-out-loud funny, and emotional.”-Jennifer L. Armentrout, #1 New York Times bestselling author of From Blood and Ash
“It is natural for a King to be curious about his future Queen. . . .”
All of Olympus-and the Underworld-are talking about the God of the Dead and the sprightly daughter of Demeter. But despite the rumors of their romance, Hades and Persephone have plenty to navigate on their own.
Since coming to Olympus, Persephone has struggled to be the perfect maiden goddess.
Her attraction to Hades has only complicated the intense burden of the gods’ expectations.
And after Apollo’s assault, Persephone fears she can no longer bury the intense feelings of hurt and love that she’s worked so hard to hide.
As Persephone contemplates her future, Hades struggles with his past, falling back into toxic habits in Minthe’s easy embrace.
With all the mounting pressure and expectations-of their family, friends, and enemies-both Hades and Persephone tell themselves to deny their deepest desires, but the pull between them is too tempting, too magnetic. It’s fate.
This full-color edition of Smythe’s original Eisner-nominated webcomic Lore Olympus brings Greek mythology into the modern age in a sharply perceptive and romantic graphic novel.

Dave Sim & David Birdsong: Hell ‘O Dali #1
Although Salvador Dali died in 1989, it’s taken more than 30 years for him to “Clear Customs” into the Infernal Realms (face it: “Where Do We Put This Guy” is one of those unsolvable conundrums “down under”).
Anyway, You Are There as the legendary surrealistic Catalan painter – and his ocelot, Babou (Babou is appealing his sentence BTW) – gets a little taste of his own medicine in his earliest experiences in the Afterlife.
Freak us out? No, no, no, Senor Dali. Freak you out!
Ville Hänninen: Käännekohta – Kansitaiteen nousu 1950-60-luvuilla
Käännekohta kuvaa suomalaisten kirjankansien yhtä kultakautta Martti Mykkäsen ja Ahti Levosen tuotannon kautta.
Mykkänen (1926-2008) oli graafikko, Lavonen (1928-1970) kuvataiteilija. Kumpaakin ajoi ilmaisun vapaus.
Toista hallitummin, toista hillittömämmin.
Asenne näkyy hyvin esimerkiksi Tammen Keltaisen kirjaston teosten ja Otavan runoilijoiden kirjankansissa. Uudistamisen halu ilmeni toisen maailmansodan jälkeisillä vuosikymmenillä kaikissa ilmaisumuodoissa kuvataiteista jazziin.
Se ilmeni voimakkaasti kirjasuunnittelussa, johon vaikuttivat niin kirjallinen modernismi kuin visuaaliset virtauksetkin. Samaan aikaan kun kotimainen design kiinnosti maailmalla, toimivat kuvittajat, mainosgraafikot ja kirjankansisuunnittelijat uuden ajan airuina Suomessa.
Kirja on julkaistu Hämeenlinnan taidemuseon näyttelyyn: Käännekohta: suomalaisia 1950-60-lukujen kirjankansia ja ajan innoittamaa kuvataidetta (14.10.2022-30.4.2023).
Ville Hänninen (s. 1976) on kirjankansiin ja kulttuurihistoriaan erikoistunut tietokirjailija, esseisti ja toimittaja. Hänen aiempia teoksiaan ovat muun muassa Muuten se on mennyttä – kirjoituksia taiteista, Kirjan kasvot – sata vuotta suomalaisia kirjankansia ja Keskipäivän miehiä – kuvia Suomen historiasta.
