The close of sixteenth-century Japan is regarded as the age of civil wars, as feudal lords fought amongst themselves for land and power. When one leader finally rose above the others and was proclaimed shogun, a peace came upon Japan and the samurai warriors found themselves suddenly unemployed. Many of these ronin turned to banditry to survive; others found work with minor lords. And a small number traveled the musha shugyo—the warrior pilgrimage—to hone their spiritual and martial skills. But whether they took the honest road or the crooked path, the ronin all found one common link—they were generally less than welcome. Such is the tale of Usagi Yojimbo.

The cops have been transformed into a willing army of bloodthirsty footsoldiers. In the garden, the trees hang heavy with living victims, unwilling sacrifices, waiting to shed their life-blood onto the ancient and evil roots that feed The Old One--The First Vampire--The Bloodfather.
Former gang boss Eddie Falco--no longer the man he once was — in fact, no longer a man at all — must lead his rag-tag army of reluctant heroes up against the might of their supernatural enemies.
But can Eddie trust that when the chips are down, his uneasy alliance between Samual Kane and his Uptown Racketeers, the half-human/half-vampire Dragonmir brothers and Squeed, the alien with a powerful secret locked onboard his ship--will hold fast? Where will their loyalties lie in the final battle? It ain’t over 'til it’s over--pulse-pounding blood-thirsty action from start to finish!

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: The ten-issue vampire epic on the bayou from the writer of the A Song of Ice and Fire novels continues in issue six! From the New York Times Best-selling author, George R. R. Martin, comes a tale of vampire clans, death and debauchery, legendary blood masters, and even a few epic steamboat races on the muddy Mississippi. This is Martin's FEVRE DREAM, an antebellum story of power, loss, and the fever of bloodlust. York and Marsh have finally, truly come to an understanding. What began as a business partnership shrouded in carefully constructed lies has now been flung into the burning light of the truth, the whole truth, and the two men now stand together as brothers-in-arms against a common enemy and towards a common goal -- the salvation of the human race. But are one man and one vampire strong enough to stand against the evil of Damon Julian? When the dark bloodmaster sets foot on the Fevre Dream, a bloody fight is about to begin... Each issue of this stunning full-color epic is illustrated by Rafa Lopez, an artist whose skilled line captures every moonlit drop of blood in delicious detail. Adapted by the Hugo-nominated author Daniel Abraham, this version of FEVRE DREAM stays faithful to Martin's original dark vision, while bringing the torture and joy of his vampires to almost-human life. This haunting series is available with Regular and Wraparound painted covers by Felipe Massafera and a very limited Nightmare retailer incentive.

FIRE & WATER: BILL EVERETT, THE SUB-MARINER & THE BIRTH OF MARVEL COMICS
(W) Blake Bell (A) Bill Everett
In 1939, brand-new Marvel's first-ever comic book featured an anti-hero named the Sub-Mariner, created by legendary artist Bill Everett. (The angry half-man, half sea-creature Sub-Mariner property has recently been film-optioned.) From the superhero and horror genre, to romance, crime, and suspense, Bill Everett was a master of the medium. Blake Bell’s follow-up to Strange & Stranger: The World of Steve Ditko, Fire and Water is the definitive biography of the man and his career. The main focus, however, will be the stunning display of artwork that few artists can match in breadth and quality— all on display in this coffee table art book that is destined to ensure Everett's place at the table of premier comic book virtuosos.

UNEXPLORED WORLDS: THE STEVE DITKO ARCHIVES VOLUME 2 HC
(E) Blake Bell (A) Steve Ditko
Unexplored Worlds: The Steve Ditko Archives Vol. 2 continues the showcase of the artist’s 1950s work that began with editor Blake Bell’s 2009 best-selling Strange Suspense: The Steve Ditko Archives Vol. 1, both following up on Strange and Stranger: The World of Steve Ditko, Bell’s 2008 critically-acclaimed retrospective of Ditko’s career.
For the first time, spectacular full-color reprints of stories are on display from the peak period of his career as an artist. After a bout of illness forced Ditko to disappear from comics in 1955, the artist came back with a vengeance, marking 1956 as his first stint at Marvel Comics with his Spider-Man co-creator, Stan Lee. And in 1957, Ditko renewed his association with Charlton Comics, a partnership that would see Ditko produce almost 500 pages of completed artwork in that year alone. The leap in the quality of the legendary artist’s work during this period is stunning. A few scant years into his career and Ditko was already the most unique artist in comic-book history and one of its most prolific. The book also features editor Bell’s insightful introduction, providing historical background and speaking to Ditko’s influence and his unique craft.

Raleigh doesn't have a soul. A cat stole it — or at least that's what she tells people — or at least that's what she would tell people if she told people anything.

How did such a shy teenage girl end up in a car with three of her hooligan classmates on a cross-country road trip? Being forced to interact with kids her own age is a new and alarming proposition for Raleigh, but maybe it's just what she needs — or maybe it can help her find what she needs - or maybe it can help her to realize that what she needs has been with her all along.

But to do so they'll need to stop a techno-terrorist bent on returning society to a time when people lived their lives instead of merely experiencing them. (MAY063435)

TWO GUYS NAMED JOE: MASTER ANIMATION STORYTELLERS JOE GRANT & JOE RANFT HC
(W) John Canemaker
This book explores the interplay between personal creativity and the craft of animation storytelling, as seen through the lives and art of two of its greatest practitioners: Joe Grant and Joe Ranft. A gifted newspaper caricaturist, Joe Grant contributed ideas for Mickey Mouse and Silly Symphony shorts as well as classic masterworks like Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Pinocchio, Fantasia, and Dumbo, and significant contributions to Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Mulan, and The Lion King. Joe Ranft built on the traditions of the past forged by Grant and others to become the top animation storyboard artist of his generation, working on Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, James and the Giant Peach, The Little Mermaid, and Beauty and the Beast. Although their combined careers spanned the Golden Age of traditional animation that began in the 1930s at The Walt Disney Company and became the present digital age at Pixar Animation Studios, their extraordinary contributions remain largely unknown to the public.

TONNER: THE LORD OF THE RINGS DOLLS
A decade ago filmmaker Peter Jackson took film audiences on a journey into the world of J.R.R. Tolkien's legendarium with his blockbuster The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, bringing to life the characters and settings that Tolkien's fans had only imagined. Robert Tonner continues Jackson's journey, taking the films' beloved characters and crafting a series of exquisite collector dolls. As a Ranger of the North, the Dunedain Aragorn is known as Strider, and none that he protects know that he is the heir to the throne of Gondor. Aragorn's beloved, the immortal elf Arwen Evenstar, lives in the Elvish retreat of Rivendell along the river Bruinen. Tonner recreates both characters, based on their appearance in the film with meticulous replicas of the costumes worn, hand-painted facial sculpts, and deeply-rooted saran hair. Fans of the film and Tolkieniana collectors will want to add this deeply romantic pair of dolls to their collections. Scheduled to ship in August 2010.

THE KOTOBUKIYA COLLECTION: MARVEL STUDIOS IRON MAN 2 MOVIE—WAR MACHINE ARTFX STATUE
A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! Following on the amazing Fine Art Statues celebrating the titular hero of the first Iron Man film comes the second of two great additions from the upcoming Iron Man 2. Hot on the heels of the Iron Man Mark VI statue is Tony Stark’s ally James Rhodes in the armor known as WAR MACHINE! Newcomer to the franchise Don Cheadle will be playing the character alongside Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark. A longtime friend of Stark’s, James Rhodes was a U.S. Air Force Lieutenant Colonel working for the state department as a liaison to Stark Industries in its arms development capacity. Beyond his official role, Rhodes is a good friend of the eccentric billionaire and one of the few people Stark can count on in an emergency. Immediately recognizing the versatility and power (not to mention fun) of the Iron Man suits, Rhodes was destined to don a suit of his own.
In Iron Man 2 Rhodes gets his wish when Stark creates a special armor suit for him that focuses on heavy weaponry. The War Machine armor is bulkier than the Iron Man suits, with large armor plates and reinforced sections on the hips, arms, and torso. Its offensive capability is obvious from the massive gatling-style cannon on its left shoulder, as well as the twin submachine guns mounted on its forearms. War Machine is posed in a martial stance, bringing his right forearm gun to bear as the shoulder cannon tracks additional targets. Unlike the resplendent red and gold of Stark’s advanced suits, War Machine is much more somber in sleek, no nonsense black and silver with red highlights around the eyes and chest-mounted arc reactor.
Sculpted by Erick Sosa, War Machine stands nearly 11 2/3inches tall atop a cylindrical Repulsor Transmitter base in matching colors. Improving on the previous Iron Man Fine Art Statues, War Machine has upgraded LED lights in the eyes, chest, fists, and base! Each ARTFX STATUE, constructed of high-quality PVC. Don’t miss out on one of the most highly anticipated armor suits from Iron Man 2, and the perfect complement to the Iron Man Mark VI ARTFX STATUE!

One of the most popular comic book superheroes in the business, Wade Wilson is popping up everywhere, and now he’s taken over Kotobukiya as the next Fine Art Statue in the Marvel Comics Presents collection, DEADPOOL! Formerly a member of the Weapon X program, Wilson has since struck out on his own as an assassin for hire and independent agent. With his trademark costume, extensive armory, and nonstop witty repartee, Deadpool makes a huge impact wherever he goes.
Never stopping for a moment, Deadpool is posed in the midst of intense action, leaping over a crate with weapons at the ready. His iconic red and black skin-tight costume highlights the mutant assassin’s muscular physique as well as the intense concentration apparent on his face. Deadpool is also laden with his usual assortment of goodies, including the knife sheathed on his left ankle, various waist pouches, and a gun holstered on his right thigh. Depending on what style of fighting you prefer, Deadpool can be outfitted with either set of included arms; one wields his deadly katanas and the other fires intricately detailed Uzis!
Deadpool stands approximately 10 inches tall, leaning over a detailed battle scene complete with crate and even a tiny Deadpool “plush” toy! Sculpted by Erick and William Valenzuela, the demented yet hilarious assassin is recreated in high quality cold cast resin. Get him... before he gets you.

SHINING WIND XECTY GODDESS OF WIND ANI*STATUE
A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! Based on 2007’s PlayStation 2 game and the latest in the “Shining” series of over 18 games and an anime series “Shining Wind” comes an all-new version of the beautiful heroine, XECTY GODDESS OF WIND! One of Baelgard’s four guardians, Xecty is an artificial life form created by Hiruda from Celestia’s genetic material. While previous versions of the clone have appeared in various military regalia, this new one celebrates Xecty as a goddess of nature.
Based on the cover art illustration of “Tony’s Art Works from Shining Wind,” Xecty is the second in a sub-series of 1/6th scale goddesses following Elwyn Goddess of the Forest. The radiant beauty gracefully rises up out of a flowing windy base, appearing to float in the air. Xecty is posed with her arms above her head, highlighting the curves of her body. The goddess wears nothing but a tiny bikini-like garment that resembles translucent white ribbon and leaves very little to the imagination. As her hair flows down behind her, Xecty’s long ears and the white angel wings protruding from her head sweep backwards, away from her serenely attractive face. Sculpted by Hirotoshi Nakamura, Xecty is 12 ½ inches tall (1/6th scale) and comes packaged in an attractive window box.
