It takes teamwork to adventure across the world of Minecraft, and that's something brothers Cobb and Flint don't have. But when their young friend, Rochelle, heads off on her own into a monster-infested zone, the two must work together to try and find her before some nasty beast does. Cobb considers himself a simple farmer and, until recently, a bit of a loner. He's content to mind his crops, gather resources, and be left alone. But fate has more in store for Cobb than intercepting the wayward villagers who replace his carrots with potatoes! When a mysterious treasure map captures the imagination of Cobb's young friend Rochelle, she tries to inspire his adventurous side. But when Cobb refuses to join her, Rochelle decides to follow the map all on her own - leaving Cobb a copy in case he changes his mind. Sure enough, Cobb is thrust into action when his adventure-obsessed brother, Flint, points out that the map leads straight through an area so dense with hostile mobs that even he (brave and strong as he is) avoids it. The threat of danger to their friend Rochelle propels them on a journey across biomes unknown, filled with grand surprises they ll never forget. The two brothers couldn t be more different, but they must work together if they hope to help Rochelle discover the treasure she seeks. The trio makes for an unusual squad - but sometimes surviving the world of Minecraft requires unlikely friendships.

Sin manifests into bloodlust in this graphic novel adaptation of Andrzej Sapkowski's original short story. Geralt pursues a proclamation from a king of a bloodthirsty monster plaguing his palace. A hefty reward is offered to cure the beast, but not to kill it, for the king holds a secret--what lies beneath the palace is beyond the spawn of evil. Tried and failed by charlatans, Geralt sets out to claim the bounty--by decree of the king or by the pleas of those who wish the creature dead. This graphic novel is the fourth in a series of adaptations from Sapkowski's acclaimed short story collection The Last Wish!

Five comics stories set in James Cameron’s expansive world that take place before, during, and after the 2009 multiple Academy Award–winning film Avatar. In the year 2154, on the moon Pandora, in a galaxy far from earth, Marine Jake Sully joined the native Na’vi through an avatar body and became their leader in the fight against the destructive RDA organization and human colonization.

Then, in the short story “Brothers,” Jake connects with the flying Toruk by remembering the depth of his bond with his twin brother and great partnerships of history and legend.
