HINO HORROR #9: GHOST SCHOOL GN
by Hideshi Hino
Drawn in the shojo manga style, these four novellas - the first in a two-book set - may be a stylistic departure from Hino's previous works, but his talent to disturb and frighten readers remains unchallenged! Hino juxtaposes the innocence and beauty of youth with the evil and ugliness that lurks down every dark alley, within every deep forest, and at the bottom of every crazed soul. Young girls on the threshold of womanhood fall prey to one monster after another. A schoolgirl becomes a victim of a dead, murderous teacher; four teenage beauty queens turn old and haggard overnight; a girl is tormented by an obsessive classmate; and another discovers that her own close friends are not who she thought them to be!

B. KRIGSTEIN: COMICS HC
Edited by Greg Sadowski
Fans that devoured 2002's Eisner- and Harvey-winning biography/artbook, B. Krigstein Vol. 1, had only one question: "When can we see more of Krigstein's astonishing comics work?!" This magnificent companion volume, a full-color collection of 35 complete stories by Krigstein, answers that question - in spades! Editor Greg Sadowski has meticulously compiled Krigstein's finest stories from his brief-but-astonishing comics career (1949 to 1956), including Romance, Crime, Horror, and even Western stories, from the publishers Rae Herman, Hillman, Atlas, DC and EC. With over half the stories newly re-colored by legendary EC colorist Marie Severin (including the EC masterpieces "Pipe Dream" and "The Keys"), and the rest of them meticulously restored from printed comics (and in some cases from original proofs in Krigstein's files) by Sadowski, this is, at long last, the book this great cartoonist (inducted into the Eisner Award "Jack Kirby Hall of Fame" in 2003) has deserved for over half a century!

THE MISCHIEVIOUS ART OF JIM FLORA SC
by Irwin Chusid
Vintage music buffs have long been bedazzled by bizarre, cartoonish album covers tagged with the signature "Flora." In the 1940s and '50s, James (Jim) Flora designed dozens of diabolic cover illustrations, many for Columbia and RCA Victor jazz artists. His designs pulsed with angular hepcats bearing funnel-tapered noses and shark-fin chins, that fingered cockeyed pianos and honked lollipop-hued horns. This volume encapsulates Flora's life with a biographical profile, interviews, photos, autobiographical reminiscences, and tributes from those who knew Jim and/or were influenced by his work.

BLACKSHIRT VOLUME 1 GN
by Adi Tantimedh & Diego Olmos
He's ex-SAS, a trained killing machine who became a thief for kicks. Now a mysterious woman has given him a moral purpose. He hasn't been this dangerous in a long time. Richard Jerrill used to be a soldier. Not just any soldier. He was a member of Britain's Special Air Service, the Elite Corps that took on the jobs no one else would, and few knew about. Now he's left the SAS and his native England for the glitz and glamour of New York City, where he writes best selling techno thrillers loosely based on his experiences in the service. But you can't take the adrenaline out of the junkie. At night, he prowls the city, dressed in black, committing petty heists and pitting himself against high-tech alarm systems, just because he can. His secret life, however, is not secret for long. A mysterious woman named Vox knows all about him. She offers him a deal in exchange for not revealing his nocturnal activities to the police (or his identity to his former enemies). He then has to be her modern day Robin Hood. So, the game has become more interesting, and the stakes are higher.

WAR HAIKU GN
by Geoff Edwards, Wilmer McLean, & Jonathan Hughes
In February 2003, a medical officer named Geoff Edwards left Tennessee for the deserts of Kuwait. A few months later he was dodging mortars, braving sandstorms, and negotiating ethnic tensions as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. He related his experiences to his friend David in letters, postcards, and poems. David got writer Wilmer McLean and artist Jonathan Hughes to adapt Geoff's letters, postcards, and poems into a graphic novel. The result is War Haiku, the first comics memoir of the Iraqi war.
