Pixies of the Sixties

In the 1960s United Kingdom, as Swinging London is underway, the existence of fairies is exposed to the light of day. Is humanity ready? It’s the Swinging Sixties in the UK, and fairies have revealed themselves to the world! Now, as the fairies integrate into society, the question on everyone’s mind is… is humanity ready? This brand new anthology series touches on themes of love, racism and xenophobia, and societal change through a supernatural lens that will appeal to fans of Carnival Row and other fantastical fiction! Gihef, Jul Maroh, Christian Lachenal (Illustrations), Giulio Macaione (Illustrations), Alberto Zanone (Illustrations).

Sirens of the North Sea

Fierce Vikings and mystical Sirens face each other in a never-ending battle to claim the most significant natural resource their world has to offer: the sea itself. For generations, Viking clans have faced Siren tribes in battles waged on land and sea—battles that pit brute strength against sorcery and cunning versus charm. Their war has torn apart the very world they fight over while filling graveyards that span farther than the eye can see.
These are the tales of their mythical encounters. These are the tales of the Sirens of the Norse Sea. by Françoise Ruscak (Author), Gihef Gihef (Author), Phil Briones (Illustrator), Marco Dominici (Illustrator)

Limited Edition (2018)

Script by Aude Picault - Art by Aude Picault. Claire is a thirtysomething neonatal nurse who is becoming increasingly discouraged about her prospects of getting into a long-term relationship and starting a family. She thinks she may have finally met her man in Franck—if not a Prince Charming then at least a friendly and compatible person—but societal pressures and gender norms seem to rear their heads at every turn and Claire begins to wonder if it will ever be possible for her to be happy with another person on her own terms. Aude Picault’s chronicle of everyday romance is full of wit and sympathy but it is also backed up by a bibliography of feminist essays and studies of gender relations, offering a valuable and complicated case study of the challenges facing modern women.
