Eagle: The Making of an Asian-American President TPB Vol. 20 - nick & dent
 Japanese reporter Takashi Jo has learned many things about the scheming yet charismatic Senator, but there is one secret they keep to themselves.

Yamaoka survived a bayonet there, returning home to attend Yale, become a crusading attorney, and even marry into old-money Hampton banking dynasty. Takashi, whose own mother Tomiko died under mysterious circumstances, sees them as a kind of shadow family: Patricia, the Senator's wife - who, unknown to Takashi, also knows who he really is; Alex, the natural son crushed under the achievements of his father; and Rachel, the adopted daughter with whom he has fallen in love. With six weeks to go before Election Day, Yamaoka is struggling in the polls against his republican rival, former Apollo astronaut and war hero Senator Richard Grant. In Seattle, his hometown, Yamaoka struggles to get the votes of the pro-Grant aerospace union... by hook, or by crookery....... |

Morphos the Shapechanger
 Step back 60 years ago to a time when comics -- a new medium born in excitement, innocence, and great aspiration -- were capturing the attention of readers everywhere. This is the time in which Burne Hogarth came and changed the face of sequential storytelling with his all-time-classic strips "Tarzan" and "Prince Valiant." Over the last several years, Hogarth and his collaborator, screenwriter Harry Hurwitz, had been working on a new comics series, one which would do for the comics of the 1990s what his earlier work had done for those of the 1930s and 1940s. The result is Morphos the Shapechanger . Hogarth and Hurwitz had created the first installment of a four-issue miniseries which will, sadly, never be completed due to their untimely deaths. Dark Horse is proud to present the first complete, full-color chapter in its entirety, packaged in deluxe format with the finished script of the subsequent issues. The text is profusely illustrated with both preliminary and finished artwork by...... |
