Lore Olympus: Volume Nine


“The Underworld has a queen!”Persephone and Hades are finally reunited when the banished goddess of spring returns to the Underworld to claim her rightful place as queen. Now that Hades and Persephone have defeated and imprisoned the power-hungry Kronos once more, nothing can keep them apart, and years of being separated have only made their desire for each other grow. But the other Olympians can’t help but meddle, pushing the pair to make things official with a coronation – and a wedding.Ignoring the others who try to define their relationship, Hades and Persephone choose to take things at their own pace and focus on rebuilding the Underworld. They begin by investigating how Kronos was first able to escape, and they learn the horrifying truth that he has captured a powerful young god whose abilities help Kronos project his thoughts outside of Tartarus – thoughts he uses to plague Hera’s every waking moment. Though Kronos’ physical form is locked away, Olympus will never be free until they can rescue the child from the furious Titan’s grasp.To save the realms, Persephone must figure out her fertility goddess powers and embrace her role as Queen of the Underworld – even as it takes her further from her mother’s expectations and her former place in the Mortal Realm.This edition of Smythe’s original Eisner Award-winning webcomic Lore Olympus features a brand-new, exclusive short story from creator Rachel Smythe and brings the Greek pantheon into the modern age in a sharply perceptive and romantic graphic novel.This volume collects episodes 207–233 of the #1 WEBTOON comic Lore Olympus.

Witchcraft


Buenos Aires, Argentina, 1768. It is a dark and foreboding night when the boat arrives from Europe, bringing three shadowy figures to shore. Before long, the Maria sisters will take the New World by storm. In the coming years, they wend their way from town to town, assisting women in need and wreaking vengeance against the men who''ve wronged them. At once fiercely righteous and gleefully malevolent, the sisterhood of witches exert their powers across centuries, from the 1700s to the present, leaving a wreckage of shattered and impotent men in their wake. Told as a fractured narrative, through the eyes of the people whose lives the sisters have cast asunder, Witchcraft is a mesmerising mystery to piece together. This masterpiece of a graphic novel combines strange magic, absurdist humour, and a fiery undercurrent of female rage, to tell a heady tale of colonialism, feminism, and indigenous folklore. Hand drawn in a playful, kinetic cartoon style, with a vibrant colour palette, this experimental, eerie, and hilarious work assures Sole Otero as one of the most dynamic comics artists in South America - and everywhere.

Pérák: Armáda poražených


Je už pár let po druhé světové a poražený Adolf Hitler by měl konečně důvod k radosti. Jeho nelítostné hordy totiž nezastavila ani smrt a vojáci wehrmachtu se derou ven z hrobů, aby svého pána a vůdce pomstili. Armádu nacistických zombií vede vysloužilý major Verner, někdejší šéf Thule, který má v rukávu pár svých černých triků a stále neztratil chuť ustanovovat třetí, čtvrtou či kolikátou říši. Může nemrtvou tsunami zastavit Pérák? Ten sice za války kopal za tu správnou stranu, ovšem ten byl v zájmu vyššího dobra oficiálně postaven do ilegality. A nápad, aby nadále republice sloužil coby tajný agent nově vznikající státní bezpečnosti, se mu také hodně rychle přestává líbit. Jenže když se po vás sápe hnilobou páchnoucí pařát gestapácké zombie, není na vnitřní existenciální rozpory čas, a náš hrdina se ocitá zpátky v (dinosauřím!) sedle, i se svými pružinami na nohou. Na Péráka čeká nejosobnější nepřítel, jakému kdy čelil, a konečné řešení všech jeho problémů. Nenechte si ujít epické finále Pérákovy dobrodružné trilogie scenáristy Petra Macka a výtvarníka Petra Kopla v souborném vydání seriálu, který původně vycházel na stránkách ABC!

O. Henry for the Holidays


Complete with helpful notes about each short story''s biographical and cultural contexts. ''There are just as many real Christmas stories as ever, if we would only dig ''em up,'' wrote William Sydney Porter. The first short story he published under the pen name O. Henry was a holiday tale (''Whistling Dick''s Christmas Stocking''), while his best-known work, ''The Gift of the Magi,'' has inspired countless Yuletide movies and television episodes. Library of America presents all seven of his seasonal offerings-including two about Thanksgiving, the ''one day that is purely American'': The Purple Dress; Two Thanksgiving Day Gentlemen; Whistling Dick''s Christmas Stocking; A Chaparral Christmas Gift; Christmas by Injunction; The Gift of the Magi; Compliments of the Season. You''ll meet characters only O. Henry could have imagined: Maida, a shop clerk who scrimps and saves for a new dress to wear to the employee holiday party. Stuffy Pete, a homeless man who suffers through the generosity of back-to-back Thanksgiving dinners. The Frio Kid, a murderous outlaw who unexpectedly commits a single act of generosity. Whistling Dick, a tramp who stumbles upon a potentially lethal act of arson and robbery. Cherokee, a gold prospector who strikes it rich and decides to play Santa Claus. And Fuzzy, an alcoholic ''soldier of misfortune,'' who stumbles upon the lost rag doll belonging to a millionaire''s five-year-old daughter. Always witty, often outrageously funny, and filled with O. Henry''s famous plot twists, these stories take readers from New Mexico and Texas, through New Orleans, and to New York City to find the holiday spirit all across America.

What are friends fo? allflower Cate Cabot has always been content to keep the world at arm’s length, particularly from behind the register at the upscale Floridian boutique where she’s worked for the last nine years.

But what begins as an unlikely friendship detours into the unthinkable when Odessa leaves Cate a panicked voicemail asking to meet—and then ghosts her. And worse, when Cate attempts to find her, it’s as if the enigmatic Mrs. DuVernay never existed at all. Consumed, Cate refuses to stop searching. But the truth won’t come easy. In fact, it could cost her everything. Revised edition: Previously published as The Trophy Wife by Sunday Tomassetti, this edition of The Trophy Wife includes editorial revisions and a new ending.
