Review Fagin el judio (Fagin the Jew, Spanish Edition) / Public Square Books:From the Father of the Graphic Novel. Fagin the Jewrecasts Oliver Twist from the perspective of Fagin. Eisner's fresh, compelling look at prejudice, poverty, and anti-Semitism portrays the notorious villain as a complex and troubled antihero and gives him the opportunity to tell his tale in his own words. Depicting Fagin's choices and actions within a historical context, Eisner captures the details of life in London's Ashkenazi community and brilliantly re-creates the social milieu of Dickensian England. Strongly recommended -Library Journal The Leonardo of the comic book form -Civilization.

Review Sin City: Dame to Kill For, Ltd. Ed. / Dark Horse Comics:It`s one of those hot nights, dry and windless. The kind that makes people do sweaty, secret things. Dwight`s thinking of all the ways he`s screwed up and what he`d give for one clear chance to wipe the slate clean, to dig his way out of the numb grey hell that is his life. And he`d give anything. Just to cut loose. Just to feel the fire. One more time. And then Ava calls. We offered you the hardcover collection of Sin City: A Dame to Kill For. Now we`re offering you the deluxe, signed-and-numbered hardcover, complete with slipcase. [+]It`s the perfect packaging to the perfect story. It`s a book to kill for. Frank Miller has produced a pulse-pounding, blood-soaked, glass-shattering crime story about a thug who gets drawn back into the thick of things when an ex-lover returns with a sorry tale of "I never should have left you, and now I'm afraid that I may be killed. " He should walk away probably, but that's not how things go in Sin City, where the weak get beat to hell and the strong. well, they get beat to hell, too. Miller's style results in some of the most impressive black-and-white art you'll see.

Review Superman: Return to Krypton (Superman) / Titan Books Ltd:From some of comics' biggest talents, including star writers Jeph Loeb (Batman: Hush) and Joe Kelly (JLA), comes a tale that rocks Superman to his foundations! For years, Superman laboured under the belief that his birth-world, the long-destroyed planet Krypton, was a cold, sterile place. But in 'Return to Krypton', his preconceptions are forever smashed, as the Man of Steel is granted a miraculous opportunity to revisit the planet before its cataclysmic demise, in the process meeting his long-dead mother and father and gaining a new pet! Featuring stunning artwork from the likes of Ed McGuinness (Thundercats) and Doug Mahnke (JLA), 'Return to Krypton' is comics storytelling at its epic best! From the doomed planet Krypton to Smallville, Kansas, to the great (but often troubled) city of Metropolis, a powerful superhero has fought for truth, justice, and the American way for over 70 years. In this breathtaking tribute to the man of steel himself, all the nitty-gritty, fascinating details of Superman's life and career are investigated, analyzed, and celebrated. Discover just what happened back on Krypton to propel infant "Kal-El" to Earth as the one Kryptonian hope for rebirth of their civilization. Learn how a loving farm family named Kent adopted the baby, renamed him Clark, and instilled him with solid American values. And meet the many, many friends and enemies of our hero, including, fiercely independent but lovable Lois Lane, the nasty Joker, and Doomsday, the unstoppable creature that killed Superman. Allowed unlimited access to the archives of DC Comics, author Scott Beatty delved deep, coming up with the kind of details fans will fall all over themselves to peruse, including each featured character's vital statistics and year of appearance on the Superman scene. The large book format, compelling, readable text, and many crystal-clear illustrations in The Ultimate Guide are in keeping with Dorling Kindersley's signature style. A true treasure for superhero buffs! (All ages) -Emilie Coulter.
