Jobremus Bojeffries is like any other father -- trying to keep the peace in a house stuffed with two kids (Ginda and Reth), uncles Raoul and Festus, a baby and old Grandpa Podlasp. Never mind that one's a werewolf, one's a vampire, Grandpa is in the last stages of organic matter, and the baby puts off enough thermonuclear energy to power England and Wales...
All right, they're no ordinary family. And this is no ordinary book, with stories spanning decades, a whole chapter written as light opera, a Christmas episode, and an all-new 24-page comic bringing the Bojeffries up to the present day. On every page, the wry and anarchic creativity of the creators shines through: Alan Moore's affectionate and penetrating grasp of human nature (and British culture) creates a kind of desperate poignancy in the characters, brought to memorable life by Steve Parkhouse's deft and articulate line work.
It's all there, untutored, unpolished, ramshackle and always on the edge of collapse. Very much like Britain itself.

Jeffrey Brown takes a break from books about girls for this humorous short story collection featuring fiction, gags and autobiography. Included are such gems as "My Brother Knows Kung Fu" and "Action Television Show."

Johnny Boo zooms to the moon on a star-powered skateboard, where he meets a spunky little girl ghost named Susie Boom. She has BOOM power, which is pretty darn loud. Luckily, the moon has ice cream. But oh no! It also has an ice cream monster, just like back on Earth. This book fulfills the dreams of many of our young readers, who said they wanted Johnny Boo to visit the moon. And many others who wanted to see Johnny Boo ride a skateboard. They will all be delighted by this very silly adventure.

Pinocchio has been turned into a real boy, robbing him of his never-ending supply of wooden stakes. Even worse, he and his team of slayers are stuck on an island in the Mediterranean. They'll have to fight their way off the island before they're able to resume the hunt to save Pinocchio's love, Carlotta, and defeat the vampires and their mysterious master, the Dark Lord Dracul. That hunt will lead Pinocchio and the other puppets deep into Eastern Europe, where they encounter strange new enemies and even stranger allies. To defeat the vampires, Pinocchio will have to unravel the mystery of his own origin, and he will have to make the ultimate sacrifice.

He's outraged! He's not going to take it anymore! He's... not quite sure what to do next. Meet Hutch and his motley crew of lovable malcontents, struggling to make sense of an America that baffles, oppresses, and infuriates them. Collecting the five-year run of Tom Hart's bitingly hilarious, bitterly optimistic comic strip!

This graphic novel collects the all-new travels and travails of Hutch Owen, the homeless rebel that battles the corporate forces that control our lives. Included in this volume are: "Public Relations," where Hutch is pitted against the Worner company and a PR firm bent on redesigning the World Trade Center Site (this 92-page story -- the longest Hutch story to date -- was a one-page-per-week improvisational drama begun as a personal response to 9-11); "Aristotle," in which Hutch winds up in Worner's employ as a slogan writer; as well as a surreal Hutch Owen "24-hour comic" in which Hutch battles the trends of the "far future" when everyone wants to be on TV and thinks they have something new to say. Hart's shorter Hutch Owen stories round out the collection with "Consumer Confidence Level," "In Hong Kong," "Attacking Attacked Attacking," and "The Executive Hour" (a solo Dennis Worner story). Don't miss this politically astute and heart-warming farce.

From The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen...
Sixteen years ago, notorious science-brigand Janni Nemo journeyed into the frozen reaches of Antarctica to resolve her father's weighty legacy in a storm of madness and loss, barely escaping with her Nautilus and her life.
Now it is 1941, and with her daughter strategically married into the family of aerial warlord Jean Robur, Janni's raiders have only limited contact with the military might of the clownish German-Tomanian dictator Adenoid Hynkel. But when the pirate queen learns that her loved ones are held hostage in the nightmarish Berlin, she has no choice save to intervene directly, travelling with her ageing lover Broad Arrow Jack into the belly of the beastly metropolis. Within that alienated city await monsters, criminals and legends, including the remaining vestiges of Germany's notorious 'Twilight Heroes', a dark Teutonic counterpart to Mina Murray's League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. And waiting at the far end of this gauntlet of alarming adversaries there is something much, much worse.
Continuing in the thrilling tradition of Heart of Ice, Alan Moore and Kevin O'Neill rampage through twentieth-century culture in a blazing new adventure, set in a city of totalitarian shadows and mechanical nightmares. Cultures clash and lives are lost in the explosive collision of four unforgettable women, lost in the black and bloody alleyways where thrive THE ROSES OF BERLIN.

This swampy delight bundles together two hilarious 16-page stories from the unstoppable creative mind of James Kochalka (Johnny Boo, Dragon Puncher, American Elf, SuperF*ckers)! First, two "Rotten Little Cuties" search for a killer party and debate the meaning of life, then a pair of moss mounds claim to have invented "Facebook," and get very confused when trying to explain what that means. Saddle up your spores and don't miss the fun of FUNGUS!

From one of the bright new faces in the indie comix scene comes a collection of vignettes and stories about a solitary albeit gregarious woodsman with a loose grasp on his own personal history and that of the outside world. He forms relationships with his inanimate surroundings and muses to a dead audience, specifically his bear rug Phillippe. His own tales eventually become entangled with that of the legendary Paul Bunyan, and the two become indirectly intertwined, illuminating the discrepancy between the character of the storyteller and the character within his stories. The lives of both Paul and Pete encounter such things as the questionable origin of an ocean and the desire for preservation of everything from a fallen bird to an overused expression that has strayed a stone's throw from its original meaning.

The Ticking is the story of Edison Steelhead, a boy who at birth takes his mother's life and his father's deformed face. Secreted away by his father to be raised in a remote island lighthouse, Edison relates to his surroundings in the only way he knows how--by capturing them in his sketchbook. Able to find beauty in even the most grotesque of things, Edison embraces his own unsettling appearance and sets out to confront the rest of the world. Waiting for him on its alien shores are the sights and experiences that will give shape to both his future and his past. Written and illustrated by acclaimed artist Renee French, The Ticking is a compelling work of graphic literature, a reminder that before we can appreciate the beauty around us, we must first find it within ourselves. A gorgeous 216-page hardcover graphic novel, designed by Jordan Crane.

From the pages of Nickelodeon Magazine: the beloved wordless comedy of Sam Henderson's Scene But Not Heard comic strip, all collected in one handsome volume! Just try to keep up with his wild (and wildly funny) imagination.
