Blessed with a lovely bouncy, rubbery SpongeBob SquarePants-y style, cartoonist and animator Walt Holcombe tells wildly imaginative stories of love gained and (often) lost.

Lou Cameron was a groundbreaking art master of the 1950s Pre-Code comics era. With his innovative experimental layouts and frequent use of surrealism, his horror comics have been described as "Jim Steranko meets Graham Ingels." Zombies, vampires, werewolves, witches, ghosts, and devils from terror-filled stories like "Faceless Horror," "Lure of the Zombie Diamonds," "Graveyard of Ghost Ships," "Kill My Minions of Death," and "The Unsleeping Dead" will make you scream with delight!

The Concept
SOME WERE HEROS, OTHERS BASTARDS, but they were all at the heart of events that marked our collective memory. Relive the course of history in the footsteps of these "nobodies" who embody their ages, as much as any "man of the year" you won't soon forget!
THE STORY
ROME, 44 B.C. The Republic is living out its last days. Julius Caesar died this morning, stabbed by a mod senators determined to bring down the man who would be king. Mark Anthony, consul and friend of Caesar still holds the city thanks to Lepidus's cavalry. But for how much longer? The conspirators regroup and proudly announce the death of the "tyrant". The two camps watch each other, the slightest sign of hostility could plunge Rome into a new civil war.
THE HERO
Legionnaire and veteran of the Gallic wars, QUINTUS FALCO followed Caesar in all his battles and saw the man rise to the height of his power. Becoming his bodyguard, Quintus is never far, a gladius in the shadow of Caesar's laurels. So why did Caesar order him not to accompany him to the senate that morning, despite the growing rumours of an assassination attempt? Quintus will do anything to find out, and to punish whoever among the conspirators struck the fatal blow.

JH meets Sarah on a dating site. They connect on a regular basis and bring each other to mutual on-screen orgasm. Their exchanges, brief and solitary, eventually obsess JH, who tries to convince Sarah to meet him in person. A strange game of seduction is established between them that compels JH to meet the one sexual challenge - abstinence - that might set something into motion with Sarah. This story is a loose and contemporary variation on the theme of seduction and the emergence of love during this time of hyperconnectivity. Playing skillfully with sexual metaphor and the deafening presence of what is implicit but never spoken, Florent Ruppert and Jérôme Mulot invite us to follow them into a maze of games of love and chance.

Little does she realize these aren't the only monsters lurking in the wilds of Cryptopia.

Mountebank is like nothing you've ever seen before: a systematized sketchbook that tracks the inner workings of an obsessive brain and a book that could only be described as "psychedoolic."
