The Darkness Behind

by Stefano Casini. In a bleak, violent future, Caleb Geko's girl runs off with a gangster, and Caleb earns the gangster's ire for trying to win her back. The next thing Caleb knows, most of his memory is gone and a bomb has been planted in his head. The bomb is a "gift" for one of the gangster's enemies, and Caleb is told that if he can deliver it, he stands a chance of getting back his past. But when the bomb also destroys the device storing Caleb's memories, he takes events into his own hands, serving up murder and revenge in the name of a woman he no longer remembers...

Rebel

Pepe Moreno's post-punk science fiction epic, set in an alternate reality in the wild streets of New York City, is a Max Max/Road Warrior inspired classic! Following in the artistic footsteps of Moebius, Tanino Liberatore, and Enki Bilal, Pepe Moreno delivers a brutal portrait of New York City in a future that never was. It's an urban battleground, populated by outcasts and misfits -- Rebels -- and their guerilla war against the nasty powers-that-be... like the Sanitation Police, for starters!

The Wolves of La Louvière (2018)

Script by Flore Balthazar - Art by Flore Balthazar. Belgium, 1940. The German army is spreading across Europe, and tiny Belgium is conquered in 18 days. During the four long years of the Nazi occupation, the women of La Louvière have to figure out some way to stay alive, to live their lives, and to keep up hope. Their world is drawn through teenage Marcelle’s journal: What does she do? How do her family members endure? Which women in town collaborate with the occupying forces, and which women choose to fight? As always in wartime, the women take over for the absent men and keep their world spinning.

Mortals and Immortals of Greek Mythology (2018)

In Greek myths, extraordinary men and women are distinguished from other mortals: they are the heroes. Sometimes helped by the gods and sometimes hindered, they perform extraordinary exploits of strength, bravery, or intelligence. Jason, Theseus, Helen, Achilles, and Atalanta are among these mythical figures. The stories of the Greek mortals and immortals, and their legendary exploits, tower as tall now as they have for thousands of years! Alternately rivals or allies, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, Athena, Ares, Aphrodite, Hephaestus, Hermes, Artemis, Apollo, and Dionysus form a restless family, which Zeus sometimes has trouble appeasing. But the king of the gods is far from irreproachable himself! Join these twelve gods at the top of Olympus, where they will give you all their secrets, even the most incredible ones. Never have these classic stories of Greek gods and goddesses, heroes and heroines, been so sumptuously illustrated. All your favorites are here, but this beautiful art and design will make you want to learn their stories all over again.

Generations (2017)

Millennial, gay, and adrift with no money, no job, and uncertain of his future, Matteo returns to his small hometown after three years in Milan to stay with his grandmother, three aunts, and a very pregnant cousin. Reconnecting with the women in his family as he begins to rebuild his life and relationships opens his eyes to the truths of other generations … bigotry, love, tolerance and acceptance – and a few truths about himself.
