A Man's Skin (2021)

In Renaissance Italy, Bianca, a young lady from a good family, is of marriage age. Her parents find her a fiancé to their liking: Giovanni, a rich merchant, young and pleasant. The wedding looks set to go smoothly even though Bianca can't hide her disappointment at having to marry a man she knows nothing about. But before the marriage, she learns the secret held and bequeathed by the women of her family for generations: a "man's skin"! By donning it, Bianca becomes "Lorenzo" and enjoys all the attributes of a young man of stunning beauty. She can now visit the world of men incognito and get to know her fiancé in his natural environment. In her male skin, Bianca frees herself from the limits imposed on women and discovers love and sexuality. by Hubert (Author), Zanzim (Artist)

Tunnels (2021)

When a great antiquities collector is forced to donate his entire collection to the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Nili Broshi sees her last chance to finish an archaeological expedition begun decades earlier―a dig that could possibly yield the most important religious artifact in the Middle East. Motivated by the desire to reinstate her father’s legacy as a great archaeologist after he was marginalized by his rival, Nili enlists a ragtag crew―a religious nationalist and his band of hilltop youths, her traitorous brother, and her childhood Palestinian friend, now an archaeological smuggler. As Nili’s father slips deeper into dementia, warring factions close in on and fight over the Ark of the Covenant! by Rutu Modan  (Author)

The Incredible Adventures of Dog Mendonca and Pizza Boy

The Adventures of Dog Mendonça & Pizzaboy is a comic book trilogy, created by Filipe Melo and illustrated by Juan Cavia and Santiago Villa. A young pizza delivery boy, a middle aged werewolf, a six-thousand-year-old demon and the severed head of a gargoyle are about to face the forces of evil that threaten mankind.
The books were published in Portugal by Tinta-da-China and in the U.S. by Dark Horse Comics. Aside from the 3 volumes, the team was invited to write a story for an anthology celebrating the 25th anniversary of Dark Horse Presents, also featuring works by Frank Miller and Mike Mignola. The story was later published in the book The Untold Tales of Dog Mendonça and Pizzaboy. The books have forewords by legendary directors John Landis, George A. Romero and Tobe Hooper.
