Synopsis Scalped Deluxe Edition by : Jason Aaron

Against all odds, undercover FBI agent Dash Bad Horse has managed to keep his cover intact while gaining the trust of Lincoln Red Crow, the man whose criminal empire he's been tasked with bringing down. But, like everything on the Prairie Rose Indian Reservation, the road has been dirty and dangerous, with death always just a slip of the tongue away. Tough as he is, Dash is starting to buckle under the pressure -- and after the brutal murder of his mother, the job has finally pushed him over a line he never intended to cross. Now, just when he needs all his wits to navigate the ever-shifting web of intrigue around him, Dash has numbed himself blind with sex, booze, and heroin -- and three decades' worth of secrets are about to explode all over the rez.

Synopsis Scalped Book One by : Jason Aaron

Comics acclaimed writer Jason Aaron (Thor, Original Sin, Wolverine) and artist R.M. Guéra (BATMAN ETERNAL, DJANGO UNCHAINED) take the crime genre to a whole new corner of the world with their tale of violence, betrayal, mysticism, despair, hope and the terrible things history leads men to do to one another in SCALPED BOOK ONE. Fifteen years ago, Dashiell “Dash” Bad Horse ran away from a life of abject poverty and despair on the Prairie Rose Indian Reservation. Now he’s back, but this time he’s got something to hide: Dash is an undercover FBI agent sent to investigate tribal leader Lincoln Red Crow, former “Red Power” activist and current crime boss. Surrounded by the same mess of meth labs, murder and organized crime he thought he’d left behind, Dash must decide how far he’s willing to go-and how much he’s willing to lose-to uncover the bloody secrets of the Rez. Collects issues #1-11.

Synopsis Scalped Deluxe Edition Book Two by : Jason Aaron

Gambling, gunfights, G-men, Dawg Soldierz, massacres, meth labs, trashy sex, fry bread, Indian pride, Thunder Beings and the rugged beauty of the Badlands. In other words, life on the rez. FBI agent Dash Bad Horse has been forced back into a life and a place that he thought he escaped years before: The Prairie Rose Indian Reservation. To bring down local crime boss Lincoln Red Crow, Dash goes undercover as one of Red Crow’s hired guns. But when Dash’s own mother is slaughtered and scalped, the double agent’s loyalties become even more tangled-until not even he’s sure who the real bad guys are.

Synopsis Scalped Book Four by : J. Aaron

Celebrated writer Jason Aaron (Original Sin, Southern Bastards) and artist R.M. Guéra (BATMAN ETERNAL, DJANGO UNCHAINED) turn up the heat on their epic chronicle of crime, sin and salvation. Undercover FBI agent Dashiell Bad Horse may not believe in God, but recent events suggest that some higher power is working overtime to keep him alive. In fact, after several well-placed needles and a few well-aimed bullets, he's better positioned than ever to take down the kingpin of the Prairie Rose Indian Reservation, Chief Lincoln Red Crow. But for all of Dash's good fortune, his mother is still dead, and her murderer is still at large. He's still strung out on heroin, and so is his unborn child's mother--Red Crow's daughter. And now he's triggered the suspicions of the Chief's deadliest enforcer, Shunka, a man more than willing to employ violence in the service of both discovering and keeping secrets. SCALPED BOOK FOUR also features guest art by Davide Furnò, Danijel Zezelj and Jason Latour, and covers by Jock. Collects SCALPED #35-49.

Synopsis The Arena by : Rafi Kohan

Finalist • PEN/ESPN Award for Literary Sports Writing “An inventive, fast-paced look at what have become our modern shrines in a sports-obsessed society.” —Tom Verducci In this “addictive” (Publishers Weekly) romp, intrepid sportswriter Rafi Kohan finagles access to our most beloved fields to find out just what makes them tick: from old-timer Wrigley, creakily adjusting to the twenty-first century, to the oversized monstrosity of Jerry’s World in Dallas. Investigating harrowing logistics and deeply ingrained traditions, Kohan employs his infectious “wit and style” (Christian Science Monitor) to expose the realities of building and maintaining these commercial cathedrals of sports worship. “Highly compelling” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review), The Arena is a must-read for superfans, shameless bandwagoners, athletes, groundskeepers, culture junkies, and anyone who’s ever headed off eagerly to the ballpark to catch a game.
