Synopsis Van Von Hunter, Volume 2 by : Mike Schwark

The adventures of a dim-witted hero and his sidekick continue as they encounter the undead, cookie-baking elves, and more in this funny, fantasy manga. Continuing their journey through the lands of Dikay, fighting the most horrid, totally wicked stuff ever imagined, Van Von Hunter and Sidekick encounter lots and lots of evil! Not only does everyone’s favorite decaying jester Laspo return to wreak havoc, but we also meet the lovely, scantily armored Adonette, the famous necromancer, who treats her rotting zombie hordes as family. Throw in something scary lurking in a secret labyrinth and a surprise that will put lumps in your cookie dough, and you can bet your sweet tooth that Van Von Hunter and his sidekick are in more trouble than you can swing a sword at—or a giant crossbow! Based on the much beloved online comic. Praise for Van Von Hunter, Volume 1 “[A] humorous adventure. . . . The figures are well-designed and likable. . . . An amusing quick read.” —Publishers Weekly

Synopsis Van Von Hunter by : Ron Kaulfersch

Book one starts off with the introduction of a cloaked figure and his werewolf companion crossing the border into the newly good-ified land of Dikay. We then explain the history of the mighty warrior Van Von Hunter. Like all Legends, his is not without embellishing. Hence, we end up telling the audience a number of inaccuracies... Von Hunter is a thousand years old, and the like. Only with slick placement of dialogue well within the books will readers eventually start to uncover the real history of Von Hunter. After the history lesson we move on to VVH's side kick. After a terrible and truly earth-shaking explosion caused by the Apoxagedon spell during the final battle with the Flaming Prince, SK lost all of her memories of fighting evil with VVH and was in turn separated from him. That was three years ago. Since that time she found her way to a little village and has been living out her life; totally devoid of her past memories. She lives with an older couple who have taken her in as the daughter they never had and she works as a bar wench. Lo, these past three years, VVH has been roaming the countryside and looking for evil to smite. Oddly, the land has become more and more peace

Synopsis Jessie's Island by : Sheryl McFarlane

With a long list of activities and events to attend, cousin Thomas paints a picture of city life that makes Jessie’s world seem a little dull in comparison. When her mother suggests they invite Thomas to visit their island, Jessie wonders glumly what she could possibly write in her letter that would sound as exciting as zoos, planetariums or video arcades. But as Jessie looks out over her island home, she sees a world of endless variety, from killer whales in the strait and bald eagles soaring overhead to anemones in tide pools and tiny hermit crabs on the shore. She thinks of countless days spent exploring, fishing, swimming and canoeing.

Synopsis I Luv Halloween, Volume 2 by : Keith Giffen

Even a zombie outbreak can’t stop this gang of trick-or-treaters. Second in the “seasonal treat that the not easily offended will thoroughly enjoy” (Publishers Weekly). All your twisted favorites return, but this time they’ve brought along a few friends! The ghoulish Halloween adventures continue—but what’s this? The town has been overrun with zombies! Will the undead take a bite out of trick-or-treating forever?! Colored by Michael Kellaher, Kyle Foster and Glasshouse Graphics. Praise for I Luv Halloween, Volume 1 “Giffen and Roman have concocted a black comedy that reads as if Quentin Tarantino and Tim Burton had collaborated on a Halloween heist story.” —Publishers Weekly “Giffen has a bit of a knack for funny, absurd stories and this is one of the best examples . . . Giffen tells it very well, using comedy and witty dialogue and keeping the darker moments few and far between, to give them more impact.” —Trash Mutant “Comics veteran Keith Giffen flexes his comedy—and bad taste—muscles in an irresistible confection that would win nodding approval from Charles Addams and the producers of any self-respecting splatter movie.” —Now Read This!
