What are the consequences of pushing One too far? Ryan's RÃastrad - the famed Irish "Battle-Frenzy" - is the Answer. Civil Unrest remains a threat to the Citizens of 'Salem. Recognizing the plays for power, Frankie Fasthands - like Charlie Treadway, years prior - returns in an attempt to dissolve the current incarnation of the Triumvirate.

Unwilling to commit to this belief, the Doc-Rua enlists the aid of Rilke - who has returned to Interfere upon Frankie's behalf. Ryan continues to question his family's supposed "neutrality", and as he concludes the role Time plays in his own existence - the Doc-Rua begins to allow a self-destructive Singularity to grow within him while Rilke gathers the Memories of The Lost upon the White Stone Path.At the Center of the City, Hilo has somehow engineered a method of wiping out the Memory of the Old World to make way for his New One. The only option to battle the "Brights" of his Panopticon is a less than savory option - for the only thing that can combat this power is that of The Night. Thus, an old trickster is called upon and invited to "set things right".

In this home haunted by memories, she delves into Vilma's life and uncovers a family history shrouded in tragedy.

Both women are strong-willed and ambitious, eager to forge their own way, but face pressure from family and society to conform to the paths set for them. At a crossroads in her own life, knowing well the isolation her grandmother felt, Rocio seeks to break free from the chain of history. Mothballs chronicles fraught family dynamics with rare nuance and sensitivity, sprinkling in moments of tenderness, vulnerability, and whimsy amidst the pain, a showcase of tour de force cartooning that marks Sole Otero as a major talent in the global comics scene.
American audiences have grown familiar with international comix through an influx of European bande dessinee and Japanese manga that has been translated into English over the past two decades. But there are vivacious creative scenes happening worldwide, notably in Brazil, the largest country in South America and fifth-largest country in the world. Braba aims to rectify this cultural blind spot with a single-volume showcase of innovative Brazilian comics, curated by acclaimed artist Rafael Grampá and comics editor Janaina de Luna. Produced by Fantagraphics in collaboration with Brazilian publisher MINO, this extraordinary collection of 13 short stories created by 16 pioneering Brazilian cartoonists encapsulates a thriving and thrilling comics scene. Braba unites a diverse array of voices and styles under a unifying theme: deeply personal stories from experimental cartoonists. Each artist has uniquely interpreted this concept, creating all-new work for English readers, resulting in a collection that encapsulates the intensity, political gravitas, and avant-garde spirit of the Brazilian comics community during one of the country's most challenging socio-political periods. The contributors to Braba include Amanda Miranda, Bruno Seelig, Diego Sanchez, Gabriel Goes, Jefferson Costa, Jéssica Groke, Sirlene Barbosa, Joao Pinheiro, Cris Eiko, Paulo Crumbim, Pedro Cobiaco, Pedro Franz, Rafael Coutinho, Shiko, and Wagner Willian.The term "braba," a Brazilian slang derived from "brava" meaning angry, has been embraced as a symbol of something impressive and groundbreaking. Originating from Brazil's edgy youth culture, the term is a compliment for individuals who exhibit unique and daring attitudes -- an attitude exemplified by the bold and vibrant comics in this anthology.
Tommi Musturi's Future traps the reader into a web of stories happening in different time spaces, providing perspectives on the possible futures of mankind through imaginary future worlds, current events, historical references, utopias, and ideals. Future is a mash-up of the familiar and the terribly alien: quotidian existence, sci-fi spectacle, utopian fantasy, AI dystopia, and other worst-case scenarios. Richly philosophical and allegorical, Musturi chronicles alcoholic magicians, guerrilla art squads, mutant reality television hosts, and incel archaeologist-astronauts, among many others. Weaving between a variety of styles in illustration and narration that transform and reflect our constantly changing reality, Future is an impassioned graphic novel for our times that renews the medium of comics - a vital and multifaceted work of art. Known as a stylistic chameleon who often deals with existential themes that twirl around the ideal of "freedom," Musturi has crafted his masterpiece, an attention-grabbing, bravura showcase of a rich visual imagination with a deeply moral center.
