Like a Lynchian take on Alice in Wonderland,Jessica Farmopens with an exterior of what could be any Midwestern farmhouse. Once inside, we track our titular heroine as she bounds out of bed on Christmas and goes about her morning routine, eventually breakfasting with her grandparents. The banality of the situation is subverted by a ratcheting sense of dread, as we discover that Jessica's increasingly nightmarish house is filled with creatures around every corner: some whimsical, some sexual, some despairing and some malevolent. Most terrifying of all is Jessica's father, whose promise of presents under the tree is loaded with the threat of violence. ![]() Halo - Tales from Slipspace (2017) English | CBR | 125 pages | 198.1 MB This action-packed original graphic novel contains all-new Halo® stories from some of the comic industry's best - Jonathan Wayshak, Eric Nguyen, Alex Irvine, Vasilis Lolos, Kody Chamberlain, Dave Crosland, John Jackson Miller, Jonathan Goff, Simon Roy, and Halo: Escalation writer Duffy Boudreau - as well as 343 Industries' own franchise development director, Frank O'Connor, and franchise producer, Tyler Jeffers! ![]() Halo - Escalation v04 (2016) English | CBR | 142 pages | 215.5 MB An unexpected ally joins a crack team of Spartans for their most dangerous operation yet--a secret mission into the mysterious Forerunner site known as the Absolute Record.

Executed in stunning watercolors and broken down into five chapters (set in Italy, Norway, Egypt, and Italy again), 5,000 km Per Second manages to refer to Piero and Lucia's actual love story only obliquely, focusing instead on its first stirrings and then episodes in their life during which they are separated a narrative twist that makes it even more poignant and heart-wrenching. 5,000 km Per Second is another delicate graphic-novel masterpiece from Europe. |
