Drawn & Quarterly The Moomins and the Great Flood
Book SynopsisJoin the Moomins in their very first adventure, crossing a huge flood to search for missing Moominpappa!Moominmamma and Moomintroll need to find a home for the winter, someplace where sun is plentiful and safe from the dangers of the unknown. But before they can settle down, they must cross a dark and sinister forest and find their way through a flood of epic proportions, all the while hoping that they will find Moominpappa again. Their journey seems daunting but they forge ahead, with Moominmamma's kindness and patience giving Moomin the courage he needs to face the strange, unexplored path that lies ahead of them.Written during the 1939-40 Finnish-Soviet Union conflict, or The Winter War, Jansson uses the unusual setting of a natural catastrophe to provide the background of her first children's book and the first appearance of her beloved Moomin characters. She wrote this as her escape from the horrors of war and its many consequences, but rather than avoiding the problems that war raises, she uses these as a basis for the many obstacles that the characters face, from separated families to forced displacement. With beautiful black and white artwork interspersed throughout the text and curious, playful prose, you find yourself rooting for the Moomins and their quest to find Moominpappa and a place to call home.

Rebellion Publishing Ltd. Essential Judge Anderson: Shamballa
Book SynopsisThe best-selling Essential Judge Dredd collection expands with a new line dedicated to iconic science fiction heroine, Judge Anderson! Judge Cassandra Anderson of Psi Division is one of the greatest minds on the Judges' roster. As a precognitive telepath and empath, her quirks, such as her sense of humour, are tolerated by the otherwise oppressively strict Justice Department. However, Anderson's sense of justice and morality soon calls her to question the Law of the Judges in these landmark adventures, written by Alan Grant and featuring jaw-dropping art by Arthur Ranson and Mick Austin. As Anderson battles to save Mega-City, psychic twins, and her friend Judge Corey from psychic attacks and their inner demons, her faith in the systems around her begins to crumble. And when the world is teetering on the brink of an apocalyptic collapse, it will take everything Anderson has to save the world at the ancient temple Shamballa. Grant’s run on Anderson, Psi Divison showcased a new depth for both 2000 AD and Anderson, as his stories took in the gamut of human emotion and spirituality. 'Shamballa' is to many, the quintessential Judge Anderson story, and it serves as the perfect opening volume of Rebellion’s new Essential Judge Anderson line. Trade ReviewPraise for the Essential Judge Dredd series:"If you’re a fan that hasn’t seen this stuff before, you’re in for a rare treat." - Grovel"With 40+ years of Dredd tales to choose from, the new Essential Judge Dredd has opened with an impressive one-two punch." - Comicon"Shamballa... cements itself a place amongst the best Dreddworld books in Rebellion’s line." - Revert to Saved"The story neatly combines action beats with tragedy and the start of Cass’ gradual disillusionment with her work. It’s a pivotal story and one that would only be built on as the year’s went past." - Games Radar"A strength all Grant’s scripts do share is Cassandra Anderson... While Dredd’s cold-hearted law-keeping is great for satirical purposes, Anderson is a complex, emotional protagonist who questions herself and her place as a judge. Shamballa in particular exploits that well, with the recent suicide of a colleague laying heavy on her throughout her journey." - Starburst Magazine"What makes the collection so memorable is Ranson's art. There's page after page of detailed splendour, real craft, technique and elegance present in the rendering and seemingly nowhere that Ranson doesn't show a willingness to supply infinite detail to sell the illusion of reality. He goes well above and beyond what most artists would provide, and you could frame almost any page.' - Slings and Arrows4/5 Stars - Den of Geek

Dynamite Entertainment THE SHADOW/BATMAN HC
Book SynopsisThe World's Greatest Mystery. The World's Greatest Detective. They can barely stand each other, so how will they possibly deal with the World's Greatest Evil? What legacy can two of the world's most enduring icons of justice leave once they discover an ancient evil has been living inside the world they protect for centuries. Can Batman and the Shadow save the world without destroying it in the process? Writer Steve Orlando (Batman/The Shadow, Justice League of America) and artist by Giovanni Timpano (The Shadow, Transformers) unite to tell an instantly classic tale of noir, mortality and generational heroes and villains.Trade ReviewTwo iconic characters are thrust together when a mysterious cabal known as the “Silent Seven” descends on New York. Delving into the mystical elements of both the Shadow's and Batman's pasts, writer Orlando (Wonder Woman) and artist Timpano (The Shadow; Transformers) craft a quintessential story that touches deep into their motivations and what makes each tick. The Shadow knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men, but who knows what lurks in his heart? Batman has spent decades trying to heal the sorrow caused by losing his own family, but can he actually prevent it from happening again? Orlando asks these questions within the plot but also has the characters asking the same of themselves and each other.VERDICT A beautiful work of graphic noir fiction starring venerable characters of the pulp era supported by newer protagonists from the last decade, this book is both old and new and a delight for fans of either superhero.
