The Jungle Book
With a beautiful cover and chapter-heading illustrations throughout from queen of colouring Johanna Basford.
The Jungle Book tells the story of the irrepressible Mowgli, who is rescued as a baby from the jaws of the evil tiger, Shere Khan. Raised by wolves and guided by Baloo the bear, Mowgli and his animal friends embark on a series of hair-raising adventures through the jungles of India.
Star Wars: The Tales of Kenobi
Tatooine, the harsh desert planet on the edge of civilized space, is an unlikely place to find a Jedi Master in hiding. Known to locals only as “Ben,” the bearded and robed offworlder shares nothing of his past and goes through great pains to remain an outsider. But when violence erupts between some of Tatooine’s farmers and a tribe of marauding Tusken Raiders, Ben finds himself drawn into the conflict. It’s a move that may reveal him as Obi-Wan Kenobi, hero of the Clone Wars and an enemy of the Empire—and endanger his true mission as protector of the galaxy’s last hope.
Žbirka Miro - Meky: The Best Of Miro Žbirka 3CD
Miro Žbirka rekapituluje své více než čtyřicetileté úspěšné působení na hudební scéně. Výsledkem je výběrové album THE BEST OF MIRO ŽBIRKA a MIRO ŽBIRKA SONGBOOK.
Celkem 64 skladeb na třech CD v luxusním kartonovém obalu - THE BEST OF MIRO ŽBIRKA nabízí opravdu vydatnou dávku Žbirkovy tvorby! Výběr rozhodně není nahodilý, dramaturgii alba vytvořil sám Meky a v bookletu nechybí odkazy na originální alba, z nichž skladby původně pocházejí. Kromě legendárních hitů najdete na trojalbu i novou skladbu Slovenská která se váže k filmu Juraje Jakubiska Perinbaba a dva světy (premiéra 3.12. 2020). Nahrávky na albu THE BEST OF MIRO ŽBIRKA byly letos remasterovány a dostaly současný zvuk v proslulém londýnském studiu Abbey Road Studios, což přináší ještě intenzivnější posluchačský zážitek. Průřezové album je de facto soundtrackem k filmové biografii MEKY, která záhy po červencovém vstupu do českých kin zaznamenala velmi příznivé ohlasy diváků i recenzentů.

Mária Medvecká, Pozdrav maliarke Oravy / Greeting to the Painter of Orava
Medvecká bola svojou tvorbou, životom i kultúrno-spoločenskou prácou pevne spätá s rodnou Oravou. Vyštudovaná učiteľka pôvodne pôsobila na viacerých oravských školách. Už vtedy spoznala krásu prírody a ľudí Oravy. V zložitých rokoch 1942 1947 štud
ovala maľbu v Bratislave, vo Viedni a v Prahe. V tom čase tiež spoznala časť európskej maliarskej moderny. Blízke jej bolo aj dielo prof. Jána Mudrocha a niektorých našich starších klasikov a maliarov Generácie 1909. Po ukončení štúdia sa v roku 1947
vrátila domov na Oravu. Spolu s manželom, maliarom Ctiborom Belanom, synom a dcérou žila v Medvedzí, kde v roku 1979 otvorili Galériu Márie Medveckej. V jej tvorbe maľbe a kresbe dominovala krajina, príroda. Boli to aj figurálne kompozície a pra
covné motívy, po roku 1950 poznamenané doktrínou socialistického realizmu. Maľovala aj kvetinové zátišia a obľúbené, civilistické i emotívne, detské portréty. Popisný realizmus vystriedala jej vrúcna a rýdza realistická maľba maľba vnútornej sily,
expresie, dynamického rukopisu i pôsobnosti farebných nálad a vôní oravskej krajiny v premenách ročných období. Mária Medvecká sa tak stala jedinečnou maliarkou jej" Oravy. Texty katalógu pripomínajú aj doteraz málo publikované širšie ľudské i malia
rske kontexty v našej výtvarnej kultúre druhej polovice 20. storočia. Ucelená výstavná kolekcia komorných obrazov sa zachovala vďaka zberateľom Karolovi Kollárovi a jeho synovi Marekovi. Ako súbor je vystavená prvýkrát. Bratislava na maliarky Oravy" nezabudla.
The DC Book of Lists
Packed with 100+ inventive groupings, hierarchies, and infographics, The DC Comics Book of Lists offers a creative way of looking at both the well-known and obscure histories of the top heroes and villains from the DC Universe across 80+ years.
Each entry in this book celebrates another corner of DC's past, present, and future. It revels in the rich tapestry of DC's characters and history. Or histories, for that matter. Each first meeting of Batman and Superman is listed, as are highlights of Hawkman's many reincarnations and Jimmy Olsen's transformations. The craziest things Harley Quinn has ever done? They're ranked. The DC Comics Book of Lists also lists the many alternate futures of DC, from Kingdom Come to the Great Disaster, and each of the Legion of Super-Heroes reboots (presented as a handy flow chart to account for Time Trapper's Pocket Universe, the Five Years Later era, and the Geoff Johns era "retroboot").
Illustrated with full-color comic book art throughout, each page of The DC Book of Lists presents a new discovery or way of looking at cherished characters.

The Little Book of Tom. Cops & Robbers
Tom's taste for police officers and felons-and for sexual tension between the two-developed late in his career. "I've never been to prison," he told a class at the California Institute of the Arts in 1985, "but I hear it's a closed world where there are different roles and people behave different from when they walk free. It fascinates me. It is another subject I come back to again and again." By which he meant fantasized about again and again, since only those subjects that aroused him sexually made it into his art.
The uniforms of the California Highway Patrol motorcyclists were his favorite: tan and tight, with high boots and soft black leather gauntlet gloves. He created his own uniform variants as well, a cross between military and civilian police gear, and invented suitably butch criminals for his cops to apprehend, though once apprehended the power struggle could go either way. Tom was determined to show top and bottom as equally masculine roles, and his cops were as likely to end up happily speared by criminal cock as delivering corrective coitus. Though criticized by some for what appeared to be a glorification of power, Tom was always quick to remind that the world he created was a fantasy world, where anything was possible, and everything was consensual-even in prison.
The Little Book of Tom: Cops & Robbers explores Tom's fascination with criminal justice through a mixture of multi-panel comics and single-panel drawings and paintings, all in a compact and affordable 192 pages. Historic film stills and posters, personal photos of Tom, sketches, and Tom's own reference photos make this far more than another Tom's Comics re-tread.
Marián Hossa: My Journey from Trenčín to the Hall of Fame
A Stanley Cup champion and modern legend of the game, in his own words
Marián Hossa’s life is a lesson in the value of determination and perseverance. Born into a hockey family that included his father, a former player and coach of the Slovakian national team, Marián and his brother, Marcel, quickly fell in love with the sport. Before long, they began to display the level of skill that could lead to a professional career. But the odds of reaching the NHL from Trenčín, a town of 50,000 people nestled among the mountains of Slovakia, remained long.
Determined to follow their dreams, the Hossas persevered and were each eventually drafted in the first round. After some outstanding years in Ottawa and Atlanta, Marián moved on to Pittsburgh in 2008, where he helped lead the Penguins to the Stanley Cup Final against Detroit, a series his team lost.
Prioritizing winning over dollars, Hossa signed with the Red Wings the following season, where he again reached the Final only to find heartbreak again, improbably against the team he had just left, the Penguins. It seemed that perhaps he would never raise Lord Stanley’s Cup above his head.
But Hossa persevered, refusing to give in. In 2009, he signed with the Chicago Blackhawks, and played a key role in the team’s dynastic run the following decade, winning championships in 2010, 2013, and 2015. Then, yet another obstacle appeared in his path: an unusual and debilitating skin condition that compelled him to retire years before he’d planned.
?
In this inspiring and entertaining autobiography, Hossa brings readers inside the dressing room, onto the celebratory team plane, and alongside one of hockey’s greatest stars as he makes the biggest decisions of his career.
Also featuring photos from Hossa's personal collection, this is an essential read for all hockey fans.
