Synopsis Comics Studies Here and Now by : Frederick Luis Aldama

Comics Studies Here and Now marks the arrival of comics studies scholarship that no longer feels the need to justify itself within or against other fields of study. The essays herein move us forward, some in their re-diggings into comics history and others by analyzing comics—and all its transmedial and fan-fictional offshoots—on its own terms. Comics Studies stakes the flag of our arrival—the arrival of comics studies as a full-fledged discipline that today and tomorrow excavates, examines, discusses, and analyzes all aspects that make up the resplendent planetary republic of comics. This collection of scholarly essays is a testament to the fact that comic book studies have come into their own as an academic discipline; simply and powerfully moving comic studies forward with their critical excavations and theoretical formulas based on the common sense understanding that comics add to the world as unique, transformative cultural phenomena.

Synopsis The Kat Bronsky Thrillers by : John J. Nance

Two novels by a New York Times–bestselling author who can “keep even the most experienced thriller addicts strapped into their seats for the whole flight” (People). Featuring FBI hostage negotiator Kat Bronsky, these are two stories of pilots, passengers, and planes in peril that move at supersonic speed. The Last Hostage: When airline pilot Ken Wolfe learns that the presumptive nominee for US attorney general is on his flight, his blood runs cold. Rudolph Bostich bungled the case after Wolfe’s daughter was kidnapped and killed—and let the perpetrator walk. Now Wolfe is prepared to do anything for revenge, including hijacking his own plane. It’s up to FBI agent, psychologist, and rookie hostage negotiator Kat Bronsky to solve the mystery of an eleven-year-old girl’s murder and save the lives of 130 terrified passengers. Blackout: A Boeing/McDonnell-Douglas MD-11 jetliner crashes into the Gulf of Mexico a mile inside Cuban waters, killing all onboard. The last three minutes on the plane’s cockpit voice and data recorders have been erased. Was it a massive mechanical failure or an act of terrorism? When another airliner goes down after its pilots are flash-blinded midflight, Kat Bronsky races from the jungles of Southeast Asia to the forests of the American Northwest to unmask the conspirators before the entire American airline industry comes crashing out of the sky.
