Vydáme se s ním po Cestě králů do Aquilonie, kde se zaplete do pokusu o sesazení krále, a musí prchnout do Mesantie. Zde se Conan přidává k pirátům a stává se druhem jejich vůdkyně Belit.

Between the ebb and flow of high and low tide exist some of the most vibrant ecosystems on Earth. A spectacular variety of life flourishes at the edge of the beach: anemones talk to each other through chemical signaling, clingfish grip rocks and resist the surging tide, and bioluminescent dinoflagellates?a kind of single-celled alga?light up disturbances in the shallow water like glowing fingerprints. This guidebook helps readers uncover the hidden workings of the natural world of the shoreline. Richly illustrated and accessibly written, Between the Tides in Washington and Oregon illuminates the scientific forces that shape the diversity of life at each beach and tidepool?perfect for beachgoers who want to know why. Features include: ? Profiles of popular and off-the-beaten-track sites to visit along the Greater Salish Sea, Puget Sound, and Washington and Oregon coasts ? The fascinating stories behind both common and less familiar species ? A lively introduction to how coastal ecosystems work and why no two beaches are ever alike
Over 100 pages of tattoo flash feature Brian Kelly's innovative cut-up method, which splices and interweaves traditional flash motifs into new and unexpected designs. Inspired by Dadaist literary technique and borrowing from the spirit of collage, these brush-painted and spit-shaded designs are traditional in style and method but wholly original in their combinations and juxtapositions. Traditional images--roses and ships, eagles and daggers, hearts and skulls--become dynamic and surprising, nearly dreamlike and yet deeply familiar. The collection grew out of Kelly's MFA thesis, which he continued to refine at The Rose of No Man's Land tattoo studio in Berlin. This is an excellent inspirational resource for tattoo artists, apprentices, and anyone interested in traditional or neo traditional tattoo style.

DIE GROSSE WIKINGER-SAGA IM COMIC Eine Siedlung an der Wolga wird vom Einbruch des Winters und der Pest heimgesucht. Allerdings sind nicht nur die Kälte und die tödliche Seuche ein Problem für die Pestwitwe Hilda, denn ein Leben im Angesicht des Todes bringt in vielen Menschen das Schlechteste zum Vorschein. Hildas Überlebenskampf ist genauso brutal wie die Belagerung von Paris durch eine riesige Armee dänischer Wikinger – oder die Geschichte von Thors Tochter, die auf einer kleinen Insel vor Schottland ein hartes Schicksal erwartet … Der zweite Deluxe-Sammelband der großar tigen Wikinger-Serie NORTHLANDERS von Top-Autor Brian Wood (DMZ, Conan der Barbar), gezeichnet von Leandro Fernández (Punisher), Simon Gane (THE VINYL UNDERGROUND) und Marian Churchland (Beast).
Pierwszy tom jednej z najciekawszych serii wojennych ostatnich lat. Akcja opowieści dzieje się w niedalekiej przyszłości. Stany Zjednoczone zwalczają antyestablishmentowe powstanie amerykańskich klas średnich, które utworzyły tak zwane Wolne Stany. Ta druga wojna secesyjna spustoszyła cały kraj, ale największym zniszczeniom uległ Nowy Jork. Rząd USA kontroluje wschód, Wolne Stany zachód, a obie strony starają się przejąć wyspę Manhattan, zwaną teraz strefą zdemilitaryzowaną – DMZ. Właśnie tam wylądował młody fotoreporter Matty Roth. Reszta jego ekipy prawdopodobnie zginęła – Matty jest sam, brakuje mu doświadczenia i sprzętu. Jednak w DMZ dostanie życiową szansę, by relacjonować wydarzenia, do których nie mają dostępu inni dziennikarze. Jeśli uda mu się pokazać prawdę, może zostać największym korespondentem wojennym w dziejach. Autorem scenariusza „DMZ” jest wielokrotnie nominowany do Nagrody Eisnera Brian Wood, znany z takich serii jak „Ludzie Północy”, „The Couriers”, „The Massive”, „Star Wars”, „Conan The Barbarian”, „Lord of the Rings” i „X-Men”. Rysunki wykonał włoski artysta Riccardo Burchielli, znany polskim fanom z serii „Ludzie Północy”.

In the pages of The Massive, the Ninth Wave was struggling to repair a broken world. But before that, they were the preeminent global environmental-rescue unit, taking on criminals, polluters, politicians, and rogue states. The Massive: Ninth Wave tells these stories in a stylish, high-action, done-in-one format, reuniting the entire creative team from the original series. Critically acclaimed writer Brian Wood and artist Garry Brown go back to the beginning with the Ninth Wave environmental action unit, sharing stories from the front lines of the eco-war. “Brian Wood’s The Massive proves that there’s room for political comics.”—Complex “Much like DMZ, the glimpses of savagery [in The Massive] are unsettling because this world isn’t as divorced from ours as we’d like it to be.”—IGN “In a period where Wood’s name seems to pop up all over the industry, this series has emerged as one of his most ambitious and rewarding so far.”—IGN “Between [The Massive] and Saga, be happy that we’re in the middle of a renaissance for sci-fi comics.”—MTV Geek
Volume 2: "Private Zula Hendricks, on a rogue mission to destroy xenomorphs, has escaped a marine raid on a fuel depot in deep space with her crew. In the quiet of space, the team fixes their injuries and damaged ship. But perhaps the crew's biggest obstacle is that one of their own has brought their worst nightmare aboard--inside of them!"--
Centuries have passed and time has taken its toll on Mars. Conflict burns across the landscape. A war of supremacy and genocide at the hands of a brutal despot has brought the planet to the edge of collapse. A search party has finally located an aged John Carter and Dejah Thoris, living in quiet seclusion on a desert moon, in perpetual mourning for their lost son. How could they be Mars' last hope? Introducing a John Carter story like you've never seen before, from co-writers Brian Wood (Star Wars, DMZ, Northlanders) and Alex Cox (Adventure Time), joined by artist Hayden Sherman (Civil War II: Kingpin). Reviews: "Hayden Sherman does a great job... It is primitive and powerful. Each panel looks dangerous, like you could be sliced to ribbons by the cliff faces." - Comic Crusaders "It never occurred to me that John Carter and Batman would have much in common, but I hadn't read John Carter: The End yet." - Slack Jaw Punks "A perfect continuation for the stories of Edgar Rice Burroughs and the characters of Barsoom. This should please, delight and thrill old and new fans alike." - Outright Geekery
"Briggs Land is largest secessionist movement in the United States. When Grace Briggs wrests control of the operation from her estranged husband, she sparks a war in the community and her immediate family that threatens to bring the federal government down on their heads"--

"This is 1775. With the War of Independence playing out across the colonies, young Seth and Mercy Abbott find their new marriage tested at every turn as the demands of the frontlines and the home front collide. Rather than rehashing the tales of the most famous men of the time, Rebels details the epic story of the colonists, explorers and traders, wives and daughters, and farmers and volunteer soldiers who, in a few short, turbulent years, created the brand-new nation of America"--
This collection features the first 12 issues of a gripping series about Matty Roth, a young photojournalist who finds himself in the dangerous DMZ of New York City amidst a civil uprising. As he navigates this chaotic war zone, he must decide between escaping or capturing the truth of his harrowing experience.
Sven is living the high life in Constantinople - the Las Vegas of the 11th
century - when he learns of his father's death and sets out to the frigid
islands of the North Sea to reclaim his birthright. Intending only to take his
money and run, he discovers far more than he bargained for back at home.
The first of three volumes chronicling the entire NORTHLANDERS saga! Writer BRIAN WOOD (DMZ, Rebels, The Massive), with a lineup of acclaimed artists including DAVIDE GIANFELICE (Daredevil: Reborn) and RYAN KELLY (LUCIFER), brings his modern, stylish sensibility a thousand years into the past. The British Isles were a tempting target to the Vikings, who craved lush land to farm and rich monasteries to plunder, and the fractured Saxon kingdoms were barely able to resist. But as time progressed and the centuries-old pagan belief in nature, the fates, and a raucous warrior afterlife were gradually replaced by the rigid traditions of Christianity, a dark ages culture war took shape. An exiled Viking warrior returns to Orkney to claim a family title in “Sven The Returned.” A trio of Norse wives hold a coastal fort against wave after wave of invaders in “The Shield Maidens.” A forensic investigator tracks a series of killings across pagan Ireland in “The Cross And The Hammer.” “Thor’s Daughter” introduces a young woman, the sudden and tragic heir to an army of impatient warriors. And in the poignant “Lindisfarne,” a young boy witnesses the brutal monastery raid that started it all. Collects NORTHLANDERS #1-16, #18-19, and #41.
In the near future, America's worst nightmare has come true. With military
adventurism overseas bogging down the Army and National Guard, the US
Government mistakenly neglects the very real threat of anti-establishment
militias scattered across the 50 states. In this volume, Matty goes undercover
to infiltrate a terrorist cell.
1000 AD. The Christian conversion of pagan lands is well underway, turning the
Viking north into a bleak war zone of occupation. Magnus The Black is an ex-
warrior turned fixer for the Church. But when a Vatican official under his
care is murdered, he uncovers a secret so big, that it threatens to change the
balance of power in all of Europe.
Superstar writer Brian Wood tells the origin of the Valkyrie--the deadliest spacefighter pilots in the EVE universe! This series leads into EVE Valkyrie, one of the most hotly anticipated video games of all time, a groundbreaking virtual reality space dogfighting shooter from the creators of EVE Online. With cloning technology that transmits them into a new body each time the old one dies in flames, the Valkyrie are immortal--the most skilled, most fearless pilots money can buy, mercenaries with loyalty to no one but each other.

NEW YORK... též známý jako Země nikoho, uprostřed druhé americké občanské války. Nezkušený fotoreportér Matty Roth je na místě a slouží jako osamělý hlas zdejších obyvatel zoufale zápasících o přežití uprostřed nejnebezpečnější válečné zóny celé planety.
Ve SKRYTÉ VÁLCE se pozornost odvrací od politiků a vojáků v první linii – upírá se na obyvatele města, obyčejné civilisty vystavené těm nejhorším představitelným podmínkám, kteří se po celou tu dobu pokouší hlavně přežít. SKRYTÁ VÁLKA je neodmyslitelnou součástí příběhu DMZ a je vyprávěna prostřednictvím šesti povídek, v nichž se seznámíte s novými postavami a potkáte pár starých známých.
Scenárista Brian Wood a výtvarník Riccardo Burchielli nám opět přinášejí DMZ, o níž kritika napsala, že je „fascinující... spojuje v sobě napětí letního filmového trháku s hrůzami války a dávkou sociální a politické kritiky“ (USA TODAY) a „sveřepě rozzlobená a krutá, chytrá a šokující“ (BOING BOING). Tentokrát nás zavedou na nepřátelské území, aby nám odhalili skrytou cenu války: civilní oběti.
A blistering take on media control in a repressive future America! DMZ and The Massive creator Brian Wood launched an all-out assault on the comics medium in 1997 with Channel Zero, an influential, forward-thinking series that combined art, politics, and graphic design in a unique way. Touching on themes of freedom of expression, hacking, cutting-edge media manipulation, and police†surveillance, it remains as relevant today as it did back then. The Channel Zero collection contains the original series, the prequel graphic novel Jennie One (illustrated†by Becky Cloonan), the best of the two Public Domain design books, and almost fifteen years of extras, rarities, short stories, and unused art. Also featuring the now-classic Warren Ellis introduction and an all-new cover by Wood, this is the must-have edition. See where it all began!

Gemeinsam erleben die beiden einige schöne Augenblicke, kämpfen aber auch erbittert gegen eine Bedrohung aus grauer Vorzeit. Drei Jahre später nimmt Emma überraschenderweise Kontakt zu Sam auf. Sie schickt ihm Bücher, Zeitungsartikel sowie ein Ticket nach Schottland. Dort angekommen überschlagen sich die Ereignisse, und Sam weiß nicht mehr, was er von Emma halten soll. Das Mädchen von vor drei Jahren scheint nicht mehr zu existieren. Emma ist nur noch ein Schatten ihrer selbst. Sam ist völlig ratlos und hofft, dass Dean kommt und ihm zur Seite steht.
