Welcome to BookGN.com

In this sequel to the critically acclaimed first volume of Spera, exiled princesses Pira and Lono travel to the bustling city of Kotequog to avoid the clutches of Pira's mother, the Evil Queen. Obtaining jobs as adventurers, the two best friends set out on a series of quests that land them in perhaps more excitement than they'd bargained for. Told in four chapters and a series of stand-alone shorts, each drawn by a different rising talent in comics, Spera: Volume 2 brings the same gorgeous artistry as its debut installment. The series, based off the original webcomic experiment, brings artists together from around the globe to showcase their talents as some of the premier fantasy artists in the industry. Spera will appeal to art lovers and children of all ages, especially fans of The Legend of Korra, Patricia Wrede's Dealing with Dragons, Disney's Tangled, and the Flight series.

Lono's life as a princess consisted of sitting, reading, and dreaming - until the day Pira, princess of a neighboring kingdom, arrived with news of a waking nightmare! With the help of Pira's best friend - a fire spirit in the form of a dog named Yonder - the princesses now find themselves in a race against evil. The goal: Spera, a magical realm of which the princesses had only ever heard the tallest tales. The prize: their very lives!

The saga of a simple man finding himself falling into a different world where he is falling into a very weird and a very strange adventure. A black and white graphic novel from the talented duo of Phillip Hester and Bruce McCorkindale.

Led by the war-weary Hector, the operators and villagers form mutual bonds of honor and respect leading up to a climactic battle where the 'Lions of Panjshir' are desperately outnumbered.

What's to Love: If you've read S.M. Vidaurri's first original graphic novel Iron: Or, the War After or his issue of Jim Henson's The Storyteller: Witches, you might understand when we say his watercolor stylings are hauntingly beautiful to look at'they have a soft gentleness to them, yet can convey the most stark of imagery. His new OGN has us completely mesmerized once again, invoking comparisons to The Legend of Korra and the works of Hayao Miyazaki. What It Is: When Carson, a young girl living with cancer, is bestowed with age-old magic by a rebellious sorcerer named Iscariot, she must navigate her new powers, face the life she had thought she left behind forever, and take on the order of magicians who want to control her destiny. Carson discovers that Iscariot's intentions might not have been as altruistic as it first appeared, and learns the hard way that magic comes at a cost.

We poisoned our planet. Sucked it dry of natural resources. Killed one another in the name of gods that never existed, and survived despite it all. Now, at the very edges of the fabric of space-time, the universe itself is starting to decay. Three warring races-the Human Empire, the organic Duron, and the cybernetic Luminids-must band together to stop their mutual destruction, and the future of the galaxy rests on Captain Rhodes and the crew of the H.E. Woden.

GET SMASHED...OR BE SMASHED! Meet Armstrong: Since the ancient city of Ur, this immortal adventurer has spent the last 7,000 years drinking and carousing his way through history alongside some of the greatest merrymakers the world has ever known. Meet Archer: A sheltered teenage martial arts master and expert marksman that was raised for a single purpose - to kill the devil incarnate. Little did he know that this undying evil was actually Armstrong (he's actually a pretty good guy...once you get to know him) and, since hitting the road together, the two have become great friends and even better partners. Now: Archer is about to set off on his most dangerous mission yet - a quest into the mystic reaches of Armstrong's bottomless satchel to liberate his friend and comrade from the clutches of the mad god Bacchus! (Okay, so, Armstrong went into the satchel himself to get a bottle of whiskey that he kinda misplaced and got stuck. It's like the Amazon warehouse of arcane treasures in there...and he doesn't exactly have a maid service.) Imprisoned in Armstrong's satchel for centuries, Bacchus now commands a legion of monsters, goblins and golems bent on escaping back into the world of man and enacting revenge on their captor... Can Archer single-handedly combat the godly embodiment of intoxication himself - and rescue his best buddy - without becoming lost amongst Armstrong's endless repository of bizarre artifacts and historical oddities in the process? From red-hot rising star Rafer Roberts (Plastic Farm) and superstar artist David Lafuente (Ultimate Spider-Man), Valiant's next blockbuster series starts here!

In Awesome Future: Stories of Victorious Action, Weed, CA-based zinester Robnoxious wants you to come in from the cold. This beautifully-drawn comix collection says, "Welcome friend; rest your feet. Things are going to be okay." Awesome Future is positivity incarnate-but it's not a mindless feel-good trip. This is a positivity that knows things are kind of effed, that we're up against a wall most days, and that fighting the good fight is a noble, important thing-even if you don't always come out on top. (And it's a zine that says, In the end the realistic get what they want but it doesn't hurt to be a dreamer.) Comics include a beautifully-drawn look at a day in the life of Maxx the dog, a run-in with a bear, and, in the spirit of his last Microcosm zine, Shut Up and Love the Rain, a piece on keeping an open dialog about sexual desire. The mantra we get in these pages is "Punks Win," that singing loud in the midst of fear and making the best of darkness will have you reaping the rewards. Whether he's going in for a vasectomy, singing the praises of the sinus-clearing neti pot, or preaching healthy poopin' practices, Robnoxious does it all with a goodhearted sense of humor, an inclusive tone, and a constructive eye towards survival and a better world. So, come in from the cold and meet the latest Robnoxious zine. You are welcome here; this place is yours.

A whirlwind story by Kostja Ribnik, but with a clear idea, depicting a meaningful elaboration on choosing a path in life, accomplished with the heart of a promising story teller and the hand of a real draftsman (136 b/w pages, B5 format, introduction by Pavle Zelic).

The search for his mother's killer has been the anchor keeping undercover FBI agent Dashiell Bad Horse from being swept away in the chaos engulfing the Prairie Rose Indian Reservation. Now that he has at last discovered the truth, the way is finally clear for Dash to fulfill the promises he made to both his employer and his mother's spirit.
But the man who murdered Gina Bad Horse is still at large, and the FBI's target-Chief Lincoln Red Crow-is about to complicate things by burning down his own criminal network. After years of violence and exploitation, a new rez is poised to rise from the ashes of the old-and no one knows who will be left alive to see it.
In SCALPED: THE DELUXE EDITION BOOK FIVE, acclaimed writer Jason Aaron (ORIGINAL SIN, SOUTHERN BASTARDS) and artist R.M. Guéra (BATMAN ETERNAL, DJANGO UNCHAINED) bring their epic saga of corruption, betrayal and atonement to its bloody and cathartic conclusion. Collects SCALPED #50-60.

Celebrated writer Jason Aaron (Original Sin, Southern Bastards) and artist R.M. Guéra (BATMAN ETERNAL, DJANGO UNCHAINED) turn up the heat on their epic chronicle of crime, sin and salvation.
Undercover FBI agent Dashiell Bad Horse may not believe in God, but recent events suggest that some higher power is working overtime to keep him alive. In fact, after several well-placed needles and a few well-aimed bullets, he's better positioned than ever to take down the kingpin of the Prairie Rose Indian Reservation, Chief Lincoln Red Crow.
But for all of Dash's good fortune, his mother is still dead, and her murderer is still at large. He's still strung out on heroin, and so is his unborn child's mother - Red Crow's daughter. And now he's triggered the suspicions of the Chief's deadliest enforcer, Shunka, a man more than willing to employ violence in the service of both discovering and keeping secrets.
SCALPED: THE DELUXE EDITION BOOK FOUR also features guest art by Davide Furnò, Danijel Žeželj and Jason Latour, and covers by Jock. Collects SCALPED #35-49.

Drugs, poverty, alcoholism: the Prairie Rose Indian Reservation has it all. Native son Dash Bad Horse swore he'd never come back to the Rez, but the FBI had other ideas. Against all odds, Dash has managed to keep his cover intact while gaining the trust of Lincoln Red Crow, the man whose criminal empire he's been tasked with bringing down. But, like everything on the Prairie Rose Indian Reservation, the road has been dirty and dangerous, with death always just a slip of the tongue away. Tough as he is, Dash is starting to buckle under the pressure - and after the brutal murder of his mother, the job has finally pushed him over a line he never intended to cross. Now, just when he needs all his wits to navigate the ever-shifting web of intrigue around him, Dash has numbed himself blind with sex, booze and heroin - and three decades' worth of secrets are about to explode all over the Rez. In SCALPED: THE DELUXE EDITION BOOK THREE, acclaimed writer Jason Aaron (Original Sin, Southern Bastards) and artist R.M. Guéra (BATMAN ETERNAL, DJANGO UNCHAINED) deepen their generational saga of crime, betrayal and redemption, with guest art by Davide Furnò and Francesco Francavilla, and covers by Jock.

Fifteen years ago, Dashiell Dash Bad Horse ran away from a life of abject poverty and utter hopelessness on the Prairie Rose Indian Reservation searching for something better.

Is he here to set things right or just get a piece of the action?
