<\/a><\/p>\nLeague of Extraordinary Gentleman Century Volume III: 2009<\/span><\/a> Promo copy:<\/span><\/p>\n In Chapter Three, the narrative draws to its cataclysmic close in London 2008. The magical child whose ominous coming has been foretold for the past hundred years has now been born and has grown up to claim his dreadful heritage. His promised aeon of unending terror can commence, the world can now be ended starting with North London, and there is no League, extraordinary or otherwise, that now stands in his way. The bitter, intractable war of attrition in Q\u2019umar crawls bloodily to its fifth year, away in Kashmir a Sikh terrorist with a now-nuclear-armed submarine wages a holy war against Islam that might push the whole world into atomic holocaust, and in a London mental institution there\u2019s a patient who insists that she has all the answers.<\/p>\n \n Atares Episode 2<\/span><\/a> Promo copy:<\/span><\/p>\n The Antares mission is underway. Kim, her daughter and her companions are on board the interstellar ship that carries the would-be colonists. Conditions are far from ideal, though. The fanaticism and bigotry of a large number of the passengers, all members of the project leader\u2019s sect, are putting everyone on edge. As well, there are rumours of substandard equipment for the expedition. By the time they reach Antares, Kim and her friends are already disillusioned\u2026 and the worst is yet to come.<\/p>\n \n Fever Moon<\/span><\/a> Promo copy:<\/span><\/p>\n An all-new Mac & Barrons story by #1 New York Times<\/span> bestselling author Karen Marie Moning, marvelously adapted into a full-color graphic novel by writer David Lawrence and illustrator Al Rio<\/p>\n In Fever Moon, we meet the most ancient and deadly Unseelie ever created, the Fear Dorcha. For eons, he\u2019s traveled worlds with the Unseelie king, leaving behind him a path of mutilation and destruction. Now he\u2019s hunting Dublin, and no one Mac loves is safe.<\/p>\n Dublin is a war zone. The walls between humans and Fae are down. A third of the world\u2019s population is dead and chaos reigns. Imprisoned over half a million years ago, the Unseelie are free and each one Mac meets is worse than the last. Human weapons don\u2019t stand a chance against them.<\/p>\n With a blood moon hanging low over the city, something dark and sinister begins to hunt the streets of Temple Bar, choosing its victims by targeting those closest to Mac. Armed only with the Spear of Destiny and Jericho Barrons, she must face her most terrifying enemy yet.<\/p>\n \n The Lovely Horrible Stuff<\/span><\/a> Promo copy:<\/span><\/p>\n Money makes the world go round, as they say\u2026 but HOW, exactly? Award-winning graphic novelist Eddie Campbell (From Hell<\/span>, Alec<\/span>) presents a fascinating journey into the wilderness of personal finance. With his trademark blend of research, anecdote, autobiography, and fantasy, Campbell explores how money underwrites human relationships, flowing all around us like the air we breathe \u2013 or the water we drown in. The result is a whimsical graphic essay, deeply grounded in Eddie\u2019s personal experiences with “the lovely horrible stuff,” ranging from the imaginary wealth of Ponzi schemes and television pilots to the all-too-tangible stone currency of the Micronesian island of Yap. In a world where drawing corporate superheroes requires literally transforming oneself into a corporation (which is kept in a shoebox under the bed), we are in strange territory, indeed. Fortunately, Campbell\u2019s wry eye and vivid full-color artwork imbue the proceedings with real humanity, making The Lovely Horrible Stuff<\/span> an investment that\u2019s worth every penny.<\/p>\n Graphic novels received 7\/29\/12<\/a> was originally published on The Geek Curmudgeon<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Let\u2019s take a quick look to see what\u2019s arrived at the Geek Compound.
