New Releases by Shawn McManus

In Il gioco della vita le terre immaginarie dell’infanzia diventano il campo di battaglia di una guerra tra due forze opposte. Quando si forma una crepa nel muro che separa il Mondo della Veglia dalle Terre del Sogno, un gruppo di giovani newyorkesi viene inesorabilmente costretto ad attraversare questo varco e a viaggiare in una regione onirica ormai dimenticata che, tuttavia, appare sia stranamente familiare che profondamente maligna.

Les scénaristes Mike Mignola et Christopher Golden, et les dessinateurs Shawn McManus, Márk Lászlo, Olivier Vatine et Gabriel Hernández Walta, ainsi que le coloriste Dave Stewart proposent une série de récits complets et de contes noirs, dans la grande tradition des histoires de l''univers Hellboy!

In this FABLES collection featuring issues #46-51 of the Eisner Award winning series, the threat of the Adversary looms ever closer as the drums of war begin their steady beat. The Fables prepare for battle, but first they must find their would-be commander: Bigby Wolf!

Le grand maître des comics revient avec l’une de ses toutes premières oeuvres. Alan Moore, l’auteur de Watchmen, V pour Vendetta ou encore Promethea, se penche une nouvelle fois sur le cas de Swamp Thing, la Créature des Marais, un être surnaturel représentant le monde de la flore. Dans cet album, la créature élémentaire découvre qu’elle est végétale à 100%, alors qu’elle espérait encore être un peu humaine. Comment, dans ce cas, consommer son histoire d’amour avec Abigail Arcane ? Swamp Thing va également rencontrer des extraterrestres bienveillants. Un volume illustré par Stephen Bissette, déjà dessinateur du premier tome, assisté de Shawn McManus, John Totleben et Ron Randall.

What if there was a drug that would keep you awake 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, had no side effects, and would always keep you at your sharpest? Would you take it? John Barret did when he becomes the latest test subject of the experimental drug Seracetinol. Before, he was stuck in a dead-end job with no friends and no future, and now his life couldn''t be better. Freed from the burden of sleeping, his days and nights blur into a fast-paced 24-hour lifestyle he never dreamed possible. But even as the fun gains steam, Barret''s nightmares begin to enter his never-ending waking life.

WINNER OF FOURTEEN EISNER AWARDS. The community of Fables living undercover in our midst has endured plenty of suffering at the hands of their longtime antagonist, the Adversary. Now it-s time to return the favor and put the would-be conqueror on notice that the cost of subjugating this last stronghold of independent magic will be higher than even he can bear. The one Fable who can accomplish this mission, however, has hidden himself in the wild and will take some convincing-if he can ever be found. Luckily for Fabletown, there is something more than a trip behind enemy lines awaiting Bigby Wolf-s return-. Collects issues #48-51 in Bill Willingham-s Eisner Award-winning Vertigo series.

As the world''s oldest and most powerful witch, Thessaly has learned through millennia of experience to be prepared for almost anything, but she could never have forseen the persistence of one loveick ghost named Fetch - or the conniving, underhanded things he would go to in order to win her heart. Attaching her name to a monster-slaying business behind her back is one thing, but agreeing to take on the universe''s ultimate destructive force - well, that just proves that love makes you stupid. Faced with this kind of courtship, it''ll be a miracle if Thessaly can survive long enough to smack some sense into Fetch''s intangible head - never mind stopping the unstoppable doom he''s unleashed.
