The prequel to the best-selling video game INJUSTICE: GODS AMOUNG US! It will be a war between heroes who used to call each other friends. A war among gods. Superman’s grip over the world is unrelenting, and the casualties are rising. The super-pills Batman synthesized from Lex Luthor’s original have given the resistance an edge, but it’s only a slight one. Especially compared to the fearsome power of the Man of Steel’s newest allies: the Sinestro Corps. Thankfully, help is on the way. The Guardians of the Universe are none too pleased with Superman’s actions over the past year, and they’ve dispatched their Green Lantern Corps to aid the alliance of heroes opposing his unjust rule. Their plan involves the biggest Corps member there is-and one, little green bullet to bring down a god. But death is not the only way a god may fall. dA battle unlike any other rages across-and above-the globe as the story of what happens before the events of the hit video game continues in surprising, shocking fashion from writer Tom Taylor (EARTH 2,) and artists Bruno Redondo (HUMAN TARGET), Mike S. Miller (A GAME OF THRONES), Tom Derenick (JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA), and more in INJUSTICE: GODS AMONG US: YEAR TWO (collects issues #7-12 and INJUSTICE: GODS AMONG US: YEAR TWO ANNUAL #1).

In Tom Taylor'Äôs well-crafted play, "Our American Cousin," the audience is invited into a rich tapestry of American and British cultural exchanges, rendered in a sharp comedic style emblematic of mid-19th-century theater. Set in the backdrop of a British aristocratic family, the play explores themes of identity, societal norms, and the contrast between American and British values through witty dialogue and compelling character interactions. Its context is particularly significant, as it premiered in 1858, at a time when transatlantic relationships were evolving, reflecting on the complex dynamics present in both nations. The humor and satire extend beyond simple entertainment, offering insightful commentary on class and privilege, woven together with a delightfully engaging plot. Tom Taylor, an eminent playwright and critic of his time, possessed a keen understanding of the cultural landscape that influenced his work. His experiences and keen observation of societal behaviors enriched his narratives, and his interest in characters that straddle different cultural spheres informed the basis of this iconic play. Notably, "Our American Cousin" gained historical significance as it was being performed at Ford's Theatre during the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln, unearthing layers of irony and notoriety. I highly recommend "Our American Cousin" not only for its entertaining qualities but also for its vibrant portrayal of cultural contrasts and its historical relevance. Readers and theater enthusiasts alike will appreciate Taylor'Äôs sharp wit and keen insights into human behavior, making it a timeless exploration of cultural identity that remains relevant in today'Äôs discourse.

Over the past century, life expectancy increased from the mid-forties to the mid-seventies. Now, however, longevity is beginning to decline. Lifestyle and Longevity by surgeon Tom Taylor provides a comprehensive overview for lay readers about the factors influencing longevity, and the strategies that can potentially increase it. The major killers – heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and dementia – all have causative factors in common that are related to diet, and most interestingly, they share the same foodstuffs. The book addresses the energy intake and dietary considerations that can overcome or delay development of these major diseases. There is also information on the genetic, environmental, and psychological factors in a healthy lifestyle, and the importance of exercise. With historically unprecedented amounts of leisure time, along with massive technological advancements, people have become more sedentary and are subject to the damaging effects of fast foods. Many of these life-shortening effects did not occur in the past, but they are reversible. “In writing this book, I have utilized my lifelong professional experience in dealing with disease processes in the practice of surgery, and have studied in detail intestinal diseases related to diet, including obesity and diabetes.” Dr. Taylor advises on major disease avoidance and treatment.

The Sin Bearer is an action-packed tale of human drama on the high seas, a love story, and an adventure story. It is also a carefully crafted, deeply satisfying piece of biblical/historical fiction. Two thousand years ago off the coast of Malta there occurred one of the most famous shipwrecks of history-famous because aboard her as a prisoner was the man who changed the course of world history with the Christian message. That man was the Apostle Paul. The Sin Bearer is a vivid retelling of his sea disaster outlined in the twenty-seventh chapter of the Book of Acts. It is the story of Shipmaster Abiel Ben Heled, so devout in his Jewish faith that his crew call him "the rabbi" behind his back. It's the story of Abiel's hatred-for the Roman Centurion who commandeers his ship and for his prisoner, Paul, and the false Messiah Paul preaches. It's the story of Abiel's love for a beautiful slave among his passengers. And finally, of his decision to risk his ship on the certainty that Jesus, Paul's so-called Messiah, is a fraud. It is a gamble he loses-but in the end he wins-in a human drama that will keep you enthralled to the last page.
