Traditionally, the Pandavas people are thought of as the "good side," but there is one story that casts a shadow on that notion: the story of Ekalavya. Ekalavya's skill in archery is said to have possibly rescued the Kauravas from defeat. Ekalavya gave away his most important asset as guru dakshina so that the guru-shishya parampara (teacher-disciple lineage) would not falter. Narad, the great rishi, who despises lies but loves trouble, is determined to make this story of Ekalavya live on. And it is on the battlefield of Kurukshetra, where the rectification of injustice is sought at all costs, that he chooses to retell the tale.

OUT OF THE SHADOWS by Mort Meskin Edited by Steven Brower $22.99 / SC / 192 pgs / FC / 7.5 x 10.5 Out of the Shadows collects the very best of legendary Golden Age comics artist Mort Meskin’s stories from the ’30s, ’40s, and ’50s and features work in every genre Meskin worked in: super-hero, adventure, kid gangs, romance, crime, westerns, science fiction, and horror. Meskin set a new a high bar for comics in the first three decades of the medium, and this book will be a revelation to both the casual graphic novel reader and the ardent fan. CAPTAIN EASY VOL. 3 by Roy Crane Edited by Rick Norwood $39.99 / HC / 144 pgs / FC / 10.5 x 14.75 The third volume in Fantagraphics’ ongoing reprint of Roy Crane’s legendary actioncomedy comic strip features what many consider the absolute peak of the series: “Temple of the Swinks.” This, plus other rollicking stories of high adventure featuring (inevitably) pirates and (just as inevitably) beautiful women, all set in exotic locales, makes this latest volume a worthy addition to this popular series. THE CRACKLE OF THE FROST by Lorenzo Mattotti and Jorge Zentner $19.99 / HC / 120 pgs / FC/ 8.5 x 11 Following in the wake of Fantagraphics’ publication last year of the extraordinary Stigmata and The Raven, Lorenzo Mattotti ups the visual ante with The Crackle Of The Frost, a graphic novel masterpiece of love and loss featuring panel after panel of sumptuous full-color paintings, as if Edward Hopper had suddenly decided to jump into comics. BETA TESTING THE APOCALYPSE by Tom Kaczynski $19.99 / SC / 136 pgs / FC / 6.5 x 9.5 While Tom Kaczynski’s comics share many of the obsessions found in the prose work of J.G. Ballard, with riffs on dystopian modernity, bleak man-made landscapes and the psychological effects of technology, Kaczynki’s visual storytellingadds an architectural dimension that the written word alone lacks. Beta Testing The Apocalypse includes 10 short stories, depicting the immense political and technological structures and spaces we inhabit that subtly affect and define the limits of who we are and the freedoms we presume to enjoy. Tom Kaczynki is a new, unique voice in the comic firmament. DUNGEON QUEST BOOK THREE by Joe Daly $19.99 / SC / 288 pgs / BW / 6 x 8.25 Expanded to more than twice the length of the previous volumes, Dungeon Quest Book Three continues the adventures of Millennium Boy, Steve, Lash and Nerdgirl as they traverse mysterious underground realms. This latest installment of the stoner D&D epic brings a whole new level of bizarre comedy, rousing adventure and ass-kicking action — all staged in front of fantastic backdrops replete with strange vegetation, ancient ruins and steam-punk imagery. JACK JACKSON’S AMERICAN HISTORY: LOS TEJANOS AND LOST CAUSE by Jack Jackson Introduction by Ron Hansen $35.00 / HC / 320 pgs / BW / 8 x 10 After creating what many consider the first underground comic, God Nose, in 1964 and co-founding Rip-Off Press in 1969, Jack Jackson began writing and drawing short historical comics about Texas history. Fantagraphics is proud to bring his graphic histories back into print, beginning with this first volume, reprinting two of his long-form histories: Los Tejanos, which chronicles the Texas-Mexican war between 1835 and 1875, and Lost Cause, which documents the violent reaction to Reconstruction by Texans. Jackson’s work is as known for its rigorous research as for its chiseled, raw-boned visual approach, reproducing the time and place with an uncanny verisimilitude. NAKED CARTOONISTS Edited by Gary Groth Introduction by Frank Stack $22.99 / SC / 144 pgs / FC / 8 x 10 Naked Cartoonists presents over 70 artists’ nude selfportraits, including Sergio Aragonés, Art Spiegelman, Will Eisner, Charles Schulz, Mort Walker, Scott Adams, Al Jaffee, Ann Telnaes, Jeff Smith, Trina Robbins, Lynn Johnston, Russell Myers, and dozens more. Each self-portrait is accompanied by a short bio, and the book is introduced by underground cartoonist and cartooning savant Frank Stack. CASTLE WAITING VOL II #17 by Linda Medley $3.95 / Comic / 24 pgs / 6.5 x 10 Linda Medley continues to gather loose ends and drop new hints in this new issue. Chess reveals a vital clue about the identity of baby Pinter’s father — could it be tied in with the war? Dayne & Tolly bid farewell to the castle, but not before leaving behind a surprise gift. And after helping Simon with his reading lessons, Jain faces off with the castle ghost!

THE JOKER ARTFX STATUE A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! As one of the most popular comic book superheroes of all time, it’s no surprise that the Dark Knight has appeared quite frequently in Kotobukiya’s lineup of DC Comics ARTFX Statues. And now, Bruce Wayne is back in an incredible reimagining of one of the key scenes in Frank Miller’s masterpiece, THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS: BATMAN VS THE JOKER! A four-issue miniseries released in 1986, Batman: The Dark Knight Returns tells the tale of a future world in which superheroes have retired. An older, angrier Bruce Wayne puts on the costume once again to save Gotham City and in the process encounters one of his most hated enemies, the Joker! Inspired by Miller’s gritty style, the duo presents a dark, dynamic vision that’ll look great on your shelf. Frank Miller’s Dark Knight Returns Batman is much thicker and heavier than most representations of the character, and that’s quite apparent here. The bulky Dark Knight kneels over the prone Joker, holding him down with one hand on his collar while pulling the other back in preparation for the final strike! Perfectly recreating the artwork, the statue is intricately detailed with special attention to Batman’s powerful musculature, the rumpled clothing of the evil clown, the furious expression on the dark hero’s face, and of course Joker’s maniacal laughing. The painting too reflects Miller’s artwork with stark colors and bold strokes. Sculpted by Junnosuke Abe, The Dark Knight Returns: Batman vs. The Joker stands nearly 12 inches tall (1/6th scale) on a special display base that really shows off the action of the scene. Miller’s Dark Knight duo looks great on its own or alongside any of the other dynamic Batman statues from Kotobukiya like the Black Costume ARTFX Statue or the upcoming Batman Dark Knight Rises ARTFX Statue (sold separately)! Statue $129.99 / Available in SEPTEMBER MARVEL COMICS AMAZING SPIDER-MAN: SPIDER-MAN FINE ART STATUE A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! In 1962 Stan Lee created the character of Spider-Man, the teenaged Peter Parker granted extraordinary powers by the bite of a radioactive spider. With great power comes great responsibility, and Spider-Man would use that power to save lives and protect the innocent. The innovative superhero would go on to become one of the most popular and famous characters of all time, appearing in hundreds of comic books, television shows, and a huge comic book blockbuster film franchise. And now, everyone’s favorite neighborhood hero is back in an all-new Fine Art Statue, AMAZING SPIDER-MAN! A blur of movement, the Amazing Spider-Man is captured like never before as he swings around a column and blasts a shot of webbing at his unseen foe! Peter Parker wears his traditional red and blue costume, recreated here with painstaking sculpted detail in the fabric’s texture and the superhero’s lean muscled physique. His complex pose screams Spider-Man with the kind of flexibility and movement he’s known for in the comics! Seemingly floating in mid-air, the web-slinging hero is cunningly attached to the highly detailed column of his diorama base. The white marble look of the column is the perfect counterpoint to Spider-Man’s brightly colored outfit, really making it pop visually! Crafted by master sculptor Erick Sosa, the Amazing Spider-Man is slightly over 7 inches tall (1/6 scale) and floats almost 16 inches above the ground in this incredible presentation. Constructed of high-quality cold cast porcelain, Spidey looks great displayed on his own but can also be combined with the upcoming Venom Fine Art Statue (sold separately) to create an integrated battle scene!

Joining Hiei in Kotobukiya’s new line of YuYu Hakusho ARTFX J Statues is a demon fused to a human, KURAMA! Created in 1990, the original YuYu Hakusho series ran for years and was then adapted to anime, telling the tales of a student who is brought back from death to serve as an “Underworld Detective” fighting supernatural crime. Now, the great characters from YuYu Hakusho are coming to you in the ARTFX J Series, a bold new expansion designed “to bring classic Japanese characters to their fans worldwide.” The more flamboyant Kurama wears his famous costume, a white under suit with green cuffs, green shoes, and a green tabard with floral motif on a blue background, red trim, and yellow belt. Calm in the face of supernatural danger, Yusuke’s ally stands at ease with his feet cocked and knees slightly bent. Kurama’s bright green eyes highlight his mischievous expression while his trademark long red hair flows down his back and points up in small spikes. The master of vegetation can be displayed with different arm configurations so that he holds a rose or prepares to strike with his signature thorn whip! Standing 9 inches tall (1/8 scale), Kurama was sculpted by Tatsumaki and is the perfect companion to the Hiei ARTFX J Statue.

The warrior and swordsman stands in a relaxed martial arts pose, his right arm extended as he focuses his supernatural energies. He wears a black and white fighting outfit complete with boots and wide multi-layered belt, while a white strap wraps around his left hand. Hiei’s demonic heritage is apparent in his red eyes and jet black hair with white fringe, and you can display him with either of two included faces with or without the evil “Jagan” eye. He also comes with alternate arms, one with the black dragon tattoo and the other with the black dragon itself curled around it!
