![]() Dungeon Quest Book One #1-5 (2010) Complete English | CBR | 5 Issues | 134.23 MB One day Millennium Boy decided to grab his hobo stick, his bandanna, and his Swiss Army knife, bid his mom goodbye, and head off on a quest. Joined by his best friend Steve (weapon: baseball bat; clothing: wife beater, cargo pants and sandals), the two sort out a few of the details their adventure. ==================== Dungeon Quest Book 01 (2010) English | CBR | 138 pages | 190.59 MB Collects Dungeon Quest Book One (2010) 1-5. ![]() TEOTFW (2013) GN English | CBR | 158 pages | 93.77 MB PREMIERE GRAPHIC NOVEL FROM 'IGNATZ' AWARD WINNER TEotFW follows James and Alyssa, two teenagers living a seemingly typical teen experience as they face the fear of coming adulthood. Forsman tells their story through each character's perspective, jumping between points of view with each chapter. But quickly, this somewhat familiar teenage experience takes a more nihilistic turn as James's character exhibits a rapidly forming sociopathy that threatens both of their futures. He harbors violent fantasies and begins to act on them, while Alyssa remains as willfully ignorant for as long as she can, blinded by young love. Forsman's story highlights the disdain, fear and existential search that many teenagers fear, but through a road trip drama that owes as much to Badlands as The Catcher in the Rye. Forsman's inviting, Charles Schulz-influenced style lends a deadpan quality that underscores the narrative's tension. The End of the Fucking World is certain to be one of the most talked-about graphic novels of 2013. Forsman is arguably the most acclaimed talent to come out of the Center for Cartoon Studies, a school founded in 2004 by graphic novelist James Sturm and educator Michelle Ollie in White River Junction, VT. Forsman graduated in 2008 and is a two-time Ignatz Award-winner for his self-published minicomic, Snake Oil. The End of the Fucking World is his first graphic novel. ![]() Powerhouse Pepper (1997) TPB English | CBR | 106 pages | 43.28 MB Eleven "Powerhouse Pepper" strips, three "Supersonic Sammy" stories, and one "Hot-head Hotel" make up the meat of this marvelous tome — a worthwhile wad of Wolverton (early Mad, Marvel monster comics, Plop, Spacehawk, "Lena the Hyena" in Li'l Abner) wit we're sure you'll want to welcome (with a wail), whisk up, weep over, wince over, whinny and whoop over. ![]() Peter Bagge - Adventures of Junior and Other Losers (1990) English | CBR | 140 pages | 72.39 MB Bagge's collection of misfits, nerds and assorted losers represents American satirical cartooning at its most inventively hilarious. He serves up the worst that American suburban "culture" has to offer. Junior is a simpleminded oaf who hates to leave the safety of his mother's house. When he does venture out, he ends up with a degenerate for a landlord and an unscrupulous conman as a housemate - an untoward experience which sends him quickly back to mom. But not all of Bagge's characters are geeks. Chet and Bunny Leeway, a quick, youngish couple living inexplicably in alienatingly bland suburbia, star in the most amusing stories in this collection. Their encounters with neighbors who are bigoted and proud of it, with radical castrating feminists and conniving artists and with their own engagingly neurotic personalities exemplify Bagge's ability to convey a sincere and subtle portrait of a happily modern relationship. ![]() Romance Without Tears (2003) English | CBR | 162 pages | 119.15 MB A first-time collection of the best romance comics of the 1950s. Four genres dominated American comic books in the 1940s and '50s: superheroes, funny animals, horror, and... romance. This revisionist collection of romance comics stories from the '50s challenges the cliché of the "tear-stained face" that later dominated the genre and became widely known and vilified as a tiresome icon of moral uplift. ![]() Don Rosa's Comics and Stories 02 (1983) English | CBR | 60 pages | 25.37 MB ![]() Don Rosa's Comics and Stories 01 (1983) English | CBR | 68 pages | 32.05 MB ![]() Pocket Full of Rain and Other Stories (by Jason) (2008) English | CBR | 165 pages | 103.70 MB This multifaceted anthology collects over 25 stories from the first decade of Jason's career, including his remarkable calling card, the novella-length thriller "Pocket Full of Rain," which has never before been published in English. Like a number of his initial stories, "Pocket" is actually drawn with realistic human beings instead of blank-faced animal characters - a true revelation for Jason fans. In fact, this book showcases three distinct styles: his earliest "realistic" drawing style (used to unsettling effect in some particularly creepy stories), an intermediate "bighead" cartoony style that still features humans (used for both humor and drama), and the "funny-animal" style he's now best known for. ![]() Four Color Fear - Forgotten Horror Comics of the 1950s (2010) English | CBR | 321 pages | 945.33 MB This installment includes terrifying tales like "A Pact With the Devil" by genius Jack Cole and "Swamp Monster" by the brilliant Basil Wolverton, as well as a stunning cover gallery! Of the myriad genres comic books ventured into during its golden age, none was as controversial as or came at a greater cost than horror; the public outrage it incited almost destroyed the entire industry. Yet before the watchdog groups and Congress could intercede, horror books were flying off the newsstands. During its peak period (1951-54) over fifty titles appeared each month. Apparently there was something perversely irresistible about these graphic excursions into our dark side, and Four Color Fear collects the finest of these into a single robust and affordable volume. ![]() Weathercraft: A Frank Comic (2010) HC English | CBR | 108 pages | 165.41 MB Weathercraft is Woodring's first full-length graphic novel set in the world of his most beloved character, Frank -- indeed, Woodring's first graphic novel, period! -- and it features the same hypnotically-gorgeous linework and mystical iconography. As it happens, Frank has only a brief supporting appearance in Weathercraft, which actually stars Manhog, Woodring's pathetic, brutish everyman (or everyhog). After enduring 32 pages of almost incomprehensible suffering, Manhog embarks upon a transformative journey and attains enlightenment. He wants to go to celestial realms but instead altruistically returns to the unifactor to undo a wrong he has inadvertently brought about: The transformation of the evil politician Whim into a mind-destroying plant-demon who distorts and enslaves Frank and his friends. The new and metaphysically expanded Manhog sets out for a final battle with Whim... Finalist, 2010 Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Graphic Novels Named one of Publishers Weekly's Best Books of 2010 Ranked #6 on TIME.com's Best Graphic Novels of 2010 "Weathercraft is a magnificent and slightly wicked little book: a whimsical farce about some of the nastiest, darkest metaphysical stuff there is, a banquet for the eyes that starts growing tendrils once it's inside you." ? Douglas Wolk, Publishers Weekly ![]() Oil and Water (2011) English | CBR | 144 pages | 81.12 MB 144-Pages! Ranked #5 on Comics Bulletin's Top Ten Best Graphic Novels of 2011! Written by Oregonian columnist Steve Duin and drawn by Eisner award-winning cartoonist Shannon Wheeler, Oil And Water follows 10 people into the aftermath of the Deepwater Horizon oil-spill. The contradictions of a disaster caused by the very industry that is the economic foundation of a community forces beliefs to be questioned when the volunteer cleanup workers come face-to-face with the diverse and pragmatic locals. ![]() Uptight #1-4 (2006-2011) Complete English | CBR | 4 Issues | 126.06 MB From the creator of the acclaimed graphic novel The Clouds Above! Split evenly among three stories, each issue of Uptight includes two self-contained short stories, plus a chapter from Crane's next graphic novel, "Keeping Two."

But exploring this strange apparition is the last thing the sailors will ever do, as their own ship is soon dispatched to Davy Jones’ locker via a mysterious explosion. Enter Jérôme Plumier, whose search for his missing uncle, the inventor Louis-Ferdinand Chapoutier, brings him into contact with the sinister, frigid forces behind this - and soon he too is headed towards the North Pole, where he will contend with mad scientists, monsters of the deep, and futuristic submarines and flying machines. ![]() Angry Youth Comix #1-14 (2000-2008) Complete Adult | English | CBR | 14 Issues | 531.70 MB The 2000 Ignatz nominee for "Best Mini-Comic" is an ongoing quarterly series from Fantagraphics!
