ULKOMAISET UUTUUDET

Greg Rucka & Leandro Fernández: The Old Guard 2 – Force Multiplied

Sixty-seven hundred year old Andromache “Andy” the Scythian, Nicolo “Nicky” of Genoa, Yufus “Joe” al-Kaysani, and newbie immortal Nile Freeman return to the good fight in the acclaimed miniseries by New York Times bestselling creators GREG RUCKA & LEANDRO FERNÁNDEZ…now a major motion picture!

When you’ve waged war as long as Andy and her squad, you’ve gotten your hands more than bloody.
Now, the day has come to confront the sins of the past.

But as Nile struggles to make peace with the team, the last person Andy expected to ever see again returns to challenge not only what Andy believes in, but what the team is willing to fight for.

Shuzo Oshimi: The Flowers of Evil – Complete 1

The first combined edition of The Flowers of Evil features volumes 1-3 of this best-selling and acclaimed series.

It follows the adventures of a lonely bookish teen struggling to find his identity through Baudelaire’s poetry, until two girls–a beauty and a bully–help him find true love and friendship.

Edgy, intense, and romantic, this new edition will give fans a chance to reconnect with Kasuga, Saeki, and Nakamura as it explores the issues of bullying, loneliness, individuality, and identity.

“It is often darkly funny, with Oshimi delivering what would be ‘jokes’ in other manga with a straightforward sincerity that may or may not be deadpan. It’s an uncomfortable funny, akin to the funny parts in, say, David Lynch movies.”

Gigi D.G. & Paulina Ganucheau: She-Ra and the Princesses of Power 1 – The Legend of the Fire Princess

Don’t miss the first epic She-Ra and the Princesses of Power graphic novel, based on stories by showrunner Noelle Stevenson!

Even after everything that’s happened, the world outside the Horde’s walls is still a strange one to Adora.
Each day she’s learning more about her growing powers as She-Ra, including something new: the ability to heal corrupted runestones.

Runestones are the magical source from which princesses like Frosta, Mermista, and Perfuma draw their power, but Glimmer knows of another runestone — one with a dark past.
Long ago a fire princess ruled the lands to the west, until her thirst for power corrupted her, and led to the ruin of her kingdom.
Glimmer thinks the lost fire runestone could give the Rebellion an edge in the fight against the Horde, but claiming this ancient power won’t be easy… especially not when the Horde has their eyes set on the same prize.

Alison Bechdel: The Essential Dykes to Watch Out for

Settle in to this wittily illustrated soap opera (Bechdel calls it “half op-ed column and half endless serialized Victorian novel”) of the lives, loves, and politics of Mo, Lois, Sydney, Sparrow, Ginger, Stuart, Clarice, and the rest of the cast of cult-fav characters.

Most of them are lesbians, living in a midsize American city that may or may not be Minneapolis. Bechdel’s brilliantly imagined countercultural band of friends—academics, social workers, bookstore clerks—fall in and out of love, negotiate friendships, raise children, switch careers, and cope with aging parents.
Bechdel fuses high and low culture—from foreign policy to domestic routine, hot sex to postmodern theory—in a serial graphic narrative “suitable for humanists of all persuasions.”

John Wagner & Garth Ennis: Essential Judge Dredd – America

The first volume of Essential Judge Dredd, a curated line of graphic novels showcasing the very best storylines of all time and presented in a fresh new package.

In Mega-City One, the Judges are the law – acting as judge, jury, and executioner.
But how do the citizens really feel about a system where they are powerless?

America Jara and Bennett Beeny grow up as best friends, living a fairly trouble-free life in a dangerous city… bar the odd, negative encounter with a Judge.
Time draws them apart, and when they are brought back together, Beeny is a successful singer and America has become involved with a terrorist organisation known as Total War, which has the Justice Department in its sights!

This dark and complex tale, considered to be one of the best stories to ever come out of the Judge Dredd universe, has been contextualised with contemporarily thematic stories with re-coloured art by Watchmen’s John Higgins.

Gilbert Hernandez: The Troublemakers

A drug dealer, a rock ‘n’ roll loser, an uber-stacked vixen, and a wily grifter: these greedy low-lifes are chasing the hard luck charm! Beto’s follow-up to Chance in Hell is a lurid, hard-boiled, pulpy delight!

Dig this scene!
Low-life drug dealer Dewey Booth has $200,000 that even-lower-lifes want. BLING!
Wes is a rock and roll loser that only wants to buy a club where nobody can tell him he can’t sing or perform. WAILIN’!
He’s known Dewey for years, but that isn’t enough to get his dough. Wes needs help. Nala is an uber-stacked bombshell whose pleasure in life is to seduce and then humiliate men dumb enough to fall for her. HUSH HUSH!
For half the dough, she agrees to help Wes get Dewey’s ill-gotten goods. Things don’t go so well when a wily grifter from Wes’s past shows up to complicate things. GULP!
Vincene is another troublemaker who enjoys wrecking people’s plans and wants the Dewey dough, too. In the end, deadly fires ignite, heads literally roll, eyes are shot out — and all Wes wants to do is sing in a rock and roll club.

The Troublemakers is the second volume in a series of original graphic novels in which Gilbert Hernandez creates comics adaptations of movies starring or co-starring Luba’s half-sister Rosalba “Fritz” Martinez from Love and Rockets.
The first, the dystopian Chance in Hell (in which Fritz has only a bit part), was released in 2007. This hard boiled, pulp graphic novel will delight longtime Hernandez fans as well as provide a perfect introduction to newcomers to Hernandez’s work.
