Plot: The Secret Story Of The Protocols Of The Elders Of Zion TPB

The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is a book written one hundred years ago. It has been represented over the decades as a blue print for Jewish world domination. In truth, though, it has long been exposed as an utter fraud, and one of the most successful anti-Semitic myths in history. Eisner takes on the whole history of the wretched book and once again pushes the medium for all its worth. The result is a compelling page turner of a graphic novel, one destined to win awards and accolades inside the comics field, the general book trade, and elsewhere. With an introduction by Umberto Eco!

In the Shadow of No Towers TPB

In his first new graphic novel since the groundbreaking Maus , Art Spiegelman presents a deeply personal, politically charged, and graphically emotionally stunning account of the events and aftermath of September 11, 2001. In a large, 2-page-spread format, Spiegelman relates his experience of the national tragedy in drawings and text that convey the unfathomable enormity of the event itself, the insidious effects it had on his life, and the extraordinary, often hidden changes that have been enacted in the name of post-9/11 national security and that have begun to undermine the very foundation of American democracy. Also, Spiegelman shares a small folio of classic Sunday comics pages from the early years that resonate eerily today. Presented in an oversized, 9"x14" format.

King, A Comics Biography of Martin Luther King, Jr. TPB

This groundbreaking body of comics journalism collects for the first time Anderson's entire biography of the renowned civil rights leader, Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. Over a decade in the making, the saga has been praised for its vivid recreation of one of the most tumultuous periods in U.S. history and for its accuracy in depicting the personal and public lives of King, from his birth to his assassination. King probes the life story of one of America's greatest public figures with an unflinchingly critical eye, casting King as an ambitious, dichotomous figure deserving of his place in history, but not above moral sacrifice to get there. Anderson's expressionistic visual style is wrought with dramatic energy; panels evoke a painterly attention to detail but juxtapose with one another in such a way as to propel King's story with cinematic momentum. This is a respectful, unsparing, truthful biography of a man and his times that captures the moral and political gravitas of the cause as well as its human...

King is the story of the man who uttered those words and was at the forefront of changing the face of American Society.

How does an artist reconcile being forced to go to the front line of a brutal conflict that will change his life and homeland forever? What happens when a reporter finally comes face to face with an evil war criminal?

In Soba , Joe Sacco captures the internal torment of the romanticized Sarajevo artist-warrior who captivated the western media with his guitar and hard partying ways. In Christmas with Karadzic , Sacco gives the reader an inside peek of the darkly humorous news process that doesn t make the headlines back home as he chases after one of the most hated and sought-after Bosnian Serb leaders and war criminals.
