Description
This must-have volume features some of the most historically important stories ever produced with Marvel’s famed wall-crawler, all meticulously scanned from the original artwork!
Gil Kane’s The Amazing Spider-Man Artisan Edition presents each page in what appears to be black and white, but has actually been scanned in color. Readers view the art in its most natural form—blue pencils, ink gradients, and editorial notations all clearly visible—so they can (ahem) marvel at all the little nuances that make original art unique.
Â
This volume contains the infamous three-part drug story that was not approved by the Comics Code Authority (Amazing Spider-Man #96–98). The second three-part story features the legendary six-armed Spider-Man saga (Amazing Spider-Man #100–102). Additionally, one of the most famous—and most shocking—Spidey tales is included: the death of Gwen Stacey! (Amazing Spider-Man #121). You can’t get a better line-up of Spider-Man stories than this!
Â
Gil Kane is regarded as one of the finest comic artists in the history of the medium. His dynamic sequential storytelling abilities, coupled with impeccable draftsmanship, make him a true artist’s artist—as this book will attest!
Publication History: TR originalBio

Description
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have been a pop-culture phenomenon since their comics debut in 1984! This collection spans the decades with stories from their earliest days and their latest adventures with spotlights on Raphael, Donatello, Leonardo, and Michelangelo!
Take a dip into the past, as co-creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird lay the foundation for decades of storytelling with the original four Micro-Series issues focusing on each Turtle. Published in 1985 and 1986, each story takes an in-depth look into the characters of Raph, Donny, Leo, and Mikey, adding to the legend that would become a worldwide sensation.
The most recent incarnation of the Turtles’ adventures, headed by co-creator Kevin Eastman and writer Tom Waltz, paid homage to the original four Micro-Series issues early in its run, later adding four more Macro-Series issues by a host of creative talent including Brian Lynch, Franco Urru, Ben Bishop, Valerio Schiti, Paul Allor, Brahm Revel, Sophie Campbell, Andy Kuhn, Ian Flynn, and Michael Dialynas.
Collects the four Micro-Series issues published by Mirage Comics and the four Raphael, Donatello, Leonardo, and Michelangelo Micro-Series and Macro-Series issues published by IDW.

Description
Brought to life by a host of talented creators, this graphic novel anthology dissects what it means to be a woman in today’s hyper-masculine world.
VOICES THAT COUNT is a collection of short comics that celebrates women. Printed in English for the first time, this Spanish collection highlights and uplifts women’s voices, collecting their stories of life, love, and empowerment. Interacting with everything from the realities of gender imbalance in the workplace—through a gender-flipped lens—to toxic beauty standards taking a toll on the body image of young girls, VOICES THAT COUNT gives women a space to recount their struggles and triumphs.
In the words of artist Ada Diez, “This comic shows the importance of an unconditionally supportive family environment, the necessity of the right educational groundwork as a feminist principle, and the key to fight for your dreams—understanding the importance of an individual’s independence, forgetting what’s been established by gender rules.”
This inspiring and thought-provoking volume collects nine stories from some of Spain’s best and brightest female authors and illustrators.
Publication History: TR originalBio
Voices That Count is an anthology featuring contributions from Julia Otero, Ada Diez, Lola GarcĂa, Agustina Guerrero, Diana LĂłpez Varela, Akira Pantsu, EstefanĂa Molina, Ana Oncina, Eva Amaral, MarĂa Hesse, Leticia Dolera, Raquel Riba Rossy, Sandra SabatĂ©s, Sandra Cardona, Almudena Grandes, Sara Herranz, Patricia Campos, and Sara Soler.

David Booher grew up in a small town outside Cleveland, Ohio and became a Los Angeles lawyer before realizing writing was more fun.

He grew up reading Stephen King, watching The Goonies and Nightmare on Elm Street, eating Lucky Charms in front of He-Man, trading Garbage Pail Kids, playing Nintendo, and going outside.

Selected for the TLA Maverick Graphic Novel 2023 Reading List!
“Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin is a love letter to the roots of the franchise. Whether you’ve been a shell head since day one or a newer fan following IDW’s ongoing series, The Last Ronin hardcover deserves a spot in your comic collection.” —CBR
“…a satisfying tale and a worthy companion piece to the original comics.” —Publishers Weekly
“One of the most anticipated comics of the year, and the colorful yet dark dystopian story definitely delivers.” —Den of Geek, voted by writers and readers as one of the Best Comics of 2021
“Point blank reaction: I enjoyed the hell out of this book. The Last Ronin is an absolute blast.” —Graphic Policy
“For TMNT fans this has been a long time coming to see Laird and Eastman back together again. They have surrounded themselves with an all-star team that shares their passion for TMNT storytelling and the end product is nothing short of amazing. Frank Miller has The Dark Knight Returns and now Laird, Eastman, and Waltz have The Last Ronin.” —Comic Watch
“What’s great about this story is that it truly stands alone. In truth, if you’ve watched the original live-action TMNT movie, you have all you need to truly appreciate this comic book. And if you’ve been reading the comic books, watching the television shows and films, and played the games? This story will take you on an emotional rollercoaster.” —Newsarama
“It’s TMNT by way of The Dark Knight Returns, down to the gritty internal monologues and vaguely cyberpunk aesthetic.” —ComicBook.com
“A must-read for both new and old TMNT fans.” —Monkeys Fighting Robots
“This book is awesome, if you’re a fan of the TMNT you probably already have this on your pull list, and you won’t regret it! If you’re still not aboard the cowabunga train, I still say pick it up, this story has such an emotional core and deserves to be read.” —Comics: The Gathering
“This just might be the best Ninja Turtles comic ever created.” —Comics Bulletin
“Terrific visuals, fluid panels, and a cast of interesting characters, highlighted by a terrifying background. It does not waste any time. Dives in on the action.” —Comic Crusaders
“Any TMNT fan can pick this up and enjoy.” —Word Of The Nerd
“Despite the fact that this is solidly set in the future of the current run of IDW comics, you dont need to have read a single issue to understand The Last Ronin. Frankly, any fan of the recent Old Person ___ comics need to check out this comic, as does any Turtle fan.” —You Don’t Read Comics
“A dream come true for Ninja Turtles fans. It feels like the culmination of the original run of the series, and then some. Absolutely a must-read for anyone who loves these characters and their world.” —AIPT
“This is what a sweeping epic is and should be plain and simple. It’s beautifully written with striking characterisation and bloody stunning interiors and it is without a doubt one of the most poignant and profound reads on stands right now.” —Reading With A Flight Ring
“One of the Best Graphic Novels of 2022” —Barnes & Noble

Erik Burnham is a Minnesotan writer and artist that first broke into comics by way of the Nick Landime feature from Shooting Star Comics. This led first to other anthologies and then work for IDW Publishing, up to and including his critically acclaimed work on the Ghostbusters line of comic books and, later, the official Tobin’s Spirit Guide.
Erik’s been fortunate to work with many companies in the last few years, including Cryptozoic, Dynamite, IDW, Insight Editions, Marvel, and Panini on properties such as Ghostbusters, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Back to the Future, Galaxy Quest, Scarlet Spider, New Warriors, Red Sonja and KISS—with more on the way (which is good news, because he loves his work.) Erik still lives in Minnesota; any rumors about this being because he’s completely afraid of the forty-nine other states (and Canada) remain unverified at this time.

Trying to acclimate to life as a mutant, she will be forced to come to terms with both her troubled past and conflicted present.

Description
The official graphic novel adaptation of the horror novel by Stephen King and Owen King concludes in this haunting interpretation of the chilling, timely bestseller.
The mysterious plague known as Aurora has blanketed the world, and, to the men, all but a handful of sleep-deprived women seem trapped—cocooned—in seemingly endless slumber. In reality, their minds have been transported to a strange, utopic dream world. It’s a world where small-town sheriff Lila Norcross and the other women can build their own society. And from which they might not want to wake.
In the real world of Dooling, West Virginia, Lila’s husband, beleaguered prison psychiatrist Clint Norcross, is struggling. He’s trying to protect the woman called Eve Black from the ill-thought-out actions of increasingly desperate men. But Eve, as the only woman capable of waking up, has her own plans: a test with global consequences. A test Clint will have to pass if he ever hopes to see his wife again.
