His father created the mega-popular Tommy Taylor boy-wizard

When a scandal hints that Tom might really be the
boy-wizard made flesh, Tom comes into contact with a
mysterious, deadly group that's secretly kept tabs on him
all his life. Now, to protect his life and discover the
truth behind his origins, Tom will travel the world, to all
the places in world history where fictions have shaped
reality." -- Fantasy genre. -- Call no.: PN6728.U584T58

around David Kim, a medical researcher who was attacked in
his laboratory by strange creatures and left for dead. His
supernaturally induced mortal injuries were repaired by
nanomachines injected into his body. The combination of
science and the supernatural has had two consequences. 1)
He cannot die. Ever. He can self-heal any wound, any
disease, never has to brush his teeth, diet, worry about
aging, or use a toilet. The nanomachines in his body
process everything and keep him in peak physical condition.
This condition brought on BY artificial means is what makes
him a xombi. 2) He has now become a magnet for supernatural
phenomenon. All manner of really strange stuff occurs with
him somehow winding up in the center of it. -- Horror

Good Riddance : an Illustrated Memoir of Divorce / Cynthia
Copeland. -- New York : Abrams ComicArts, 2013. -- Galley,
free uncorrected proof. -- 221 p. : ill. ; 23 cm. --
Summary (from publisher via SkyRiver): When you think you
live in a Norman Rockwell painting--married 18 years, three
kids, beautiful old house in the country, successful career
as a writer--you don't expect there's another side to the
canvas. Until you read a lovesick e-mail to your husband
... that didn't come from you! Good Riddance is an honest
and funny graphic memoir about suffering through and
surviving divorce. Cynthia Copeland chronicles the deep
pain, confusion, awkwardness, and breakthroughs she
experiences in the "new normal" as a wife who's been
deceived, a mom who's now single, a divorcee who's dating,
and a woman who's on her own figuring out what she truly
wants from her life. Copeland tells her story with an
emotional candor and spot-on humor that makes Good Riddance
poignant, painful, and hilarious all at once. --

2010. -- 452 p. : ill. ; 23 cm. -- "The machine had been
invented a few years ago: a machine that could tell, from
just a sample of your blood, how you were going to die. It
didn't give you the date and it didn't give you the
specifics. It just spat out a sliver of paper upon which
were printed, in careful block letters, the words 'Drowned'
or 'Cancer' or 'Old age' or 'Choked on a handful of
popcorn.' It let people know how they were going to die."

Wonder Woman : Bondage and Feminism in the Marston/Peter
Comics, 1941-1948 / Noah Berlatsky. -- New Brunswick, New
Jersey : Rutgers University Press, 2015. -- 251 p. : ill. ;
24 cm. -- (Comics Culture) -- Includes bibliographical
references and index. -- Summary (from publisher via
SkyRiver): "William Marston was an unusual man--a
psychologist, a soft-porn pulp novelist, more than a bit of
a carny, and the (self-declared) inventor of the lie
detector. He was also the creator of Wonder Woman, the
comic that he used to express two of his greatest passions:
feminism and women in bondage. Comics expert Noah Berlatsky
takes us on a wild ride through the Wonder Woman comics of
the 1940s, vividly illustrating how Marston's many quirks
and contradictions, along with the odd disproportionate
composition created by illustrator Harry Peter, produced a
comic that was radically ahead of its time in terms of its
bold presentation of female power and sexuality. Himself a
committed polyamorist, Marston created a universe that was
friendly to queer sexualities and lifestyles, from kink to
lesbianism to cross-dressing. Written with a deep affection
for the fantastically pulpy elements of the early Wonder
Woman comics, from invisible jets to giant multi-lunged
space kangaroos, the book also reveals how the comic
addressed serious, even taboo issues like rape and incest.
Wonder Woman: Bondage and Feminism in the Marston/Peter
Comics reveals how illustrator and writer came together to
create a unique, visionary work of art, filled with bizarre
ambition, revolutionary fervor, and love, far different
from the action hero symbol of the feminist movement many
of us recall from television." -- Call no.: PN6728.W62 Z5B4

Wonder Woman Unbound : the Curious History of the World's Most
Famous Heroine / Tim Hanley. -- Chicago, Ill. : Chicago
Review Press, 2014. -- 304 pages, 16 p. : col. ill. ; 23
cm. -- Includes bibliographical references and index. --
Summary (from publisher via SkyRiver): "With her golden
lasso and her bullet-deflecting bracelets, Wonder Woman is
a beloved icon of female strength in a world of male
superheroes. But this close look at her history portrays a
complicated heroine who is more than just a female
Superman. The original Wonder Woman was ahead of her time,
advocating female superiority and the benefits of
matriarchy in the 1940s. At the same time, her creator
filled the comics with titillating bondage imagery, and
Wonder Woman was tied up as often as she saved the world.
In the 1950s, Wonder Woman begrudgingly continued her
superheroic mission, wishing she could settle down with her
boyfriend instead, all while continually hinting at hidden
lesbian leanings. While other female characters stepped
forward as women's lib took off in the late 1960s, Wonder
Woman fell backwards, losing her superpowers and flitting
from man to man. Ms. magazine and Lynda Carter restored
Wonder Woman's feminist strength in the 1970s, turning her
into a powerful symbol as her checkered past was quickly
forgotten. Exploring this lost history as well as her
modern incarnations adds new dimensions to the world's most
beloved female character, and Wonder Woman Unbound delves
into her comic book and its spin-offs as well as the myriad
motivations of her creators to showcase the peculiar
journey that led to Wonder Woman's iconic status." -- Call

feminist bondage utopia to the present day, this book looks
closely at seven decades of Wonder Woman comics alongside
her appearances in television and film. Through her many
highs and many lows, this book traces the unlikely story of
the world's most popular feminist character." -- Call no.:

bibliographical references (pages 209-230) and index. --
Includes filmography and web resources. -- "Women have been
led to believe that superheroes and heroism are not for
them, and that they are little more than love interests, or
sidekicks who stand by their supermen. This is a false
proposition argues Jennifer K. Stuller, as she uncovers the
true history of how superwomen are represented in popular
culture. She reveals how, from Wonder Woman to Buffy
Summers, Emma Peel to Sydney Brislow, Charlie's Angels to
The Powerpuff Girls, the female hero in modern mythology
has broken through the boys' club barrier of tradition for
shining, if all too brief, moments." "The book details the
notable differences in how women and men are represented as
heroic in modern myth. Love and compassion, spies and
sexuality, daddy's girls, and the complicated roles of
superwomen who are also mothers are all explored. The
spotlight is also turned onto men and women who have
created modern myths with a strong female presence and
Stuller concludes by speculating on the future of gender
representation in superheroic myth." -- "A useful appendix
offers resources for further information about feminist
fangirl blogging, activism, and fiction, and the book
features a glossary of modern mythic women." -- Call no.:

Pretty in Ink : American Women Cartoonists, 1896-2013 / by

WA : Fantagraphics Books, 2013. -- 179 pages : ill. ; 31
cm. -- Includes bibliographical references (p. 175) and
index. -- Summary ( from SkyRiver): A revised, updated and
rewritten history of women cartoonists, with more color
illustrations than ever before, and with some startling new
discoveries (such as a Native American woman cartoonist
from the 1940s who was also a Corporal in the women's army,
and the revelation that a cartoonist included in all of
Robbins's previous histories was a man!) In the pages of
Pretty in Ink you'll find new photos and correspondence
from cartoonists Ethel Hays and Edwina Dumm, and the true
story of Golden Age comic book star Lily Renee, as
intriguing as the comics she drew. Although the comics
profession was dominated by men, there were far more women
working in the profession throughout the 20th century than
other histories indicate, and they have flourished in the
21st. Robbins not only documents the increasing relevance
of women throughout the 20th century, with mainstream
creators such as Ramona Fradon and Dale Messick and
alternative cartoonists such as Lynda Barry, Carol Tyler,
and Phoebe Gloeckner, but the latest generation of women
cartoonists-Megan Kelso, Cathy Malkasian, Linda Medley, and
Lilli Carre, among many others. -- Call no.: PN6725.R585

(Amar Chitra Katha ; no. 845) -- Summary: Biography of
Verghese Kurien (1921-2012), an engineer who revolutionized
the dairy industry in India: "When Verghese Kurien stepped
down from the train and on to the dusty platform in Anand,
Gujarat, on May 13, 1949, little did he know that his life
was going to change unimaginably. Waiting for him was not
just his own destiny but that of thousands of small,
marginalised farmers who, until then, had only known
exploitation and deprivation. The story of Dr. Kurien is
the story of Amul. It is the story of Operation Flood, the
billion-litre idea that set India on the top of the world
map for milk production. A die-hard patriot, Kurien was
committed to the cooperative cause. He put the milk
industry in the hands of the farmers, believing firmly that
with ownership would come responsibility and great success.
And he was right. Amar Chitra Katha traces the story of the
man who is known as the Father of the White Revolution. --

1965 to 1973. -- Resumen: "En colores. Esa es la principal
arma de las revistas que serán publicadas durante este
período ya por Zig-Zag, Lord Cochrane u otras editoriales
menores. La televisión llega lentamente a los hogares, así
que los comics siguen siendo el grand medio de
entretenimiento, situación avalada por la gran cantidad de
ejemplares de cada título promediando los cien mil
ejemplares cada uno, por lo que los dibujantes eran muy
bien pagados. Surgen los íconos de la edad de oro: Mawa,
Mizomba, Dr. Mortis y Jinete Fantasma. Con la llegada del
gobierno socialista los comics serán un medio
concientizador, propagandista, herramienta que será
utilizada por el gobierno militar siguiente. A pesar de lo
que muchos creen el noveno arte no muere con la calda de la
democracia chilena. -- Abstract: Full color. This the main
weapon wielded by the comic books that will be published
during this period by the publishing houses Zig-Zag, Lord
Cochran, and others. Television comes slowly to Chilean
homes, so comic books continue to be a popular
entertainment medium, as confirmed by the large number of
issues printed of each title. One hundred thousand each is
the average, so the cartoonists are well paid. Golden age
icons are born: Mawa, Mizomba, Dr. Mortis and Jinete
Fantasma (Ghost Rider). The coming of the socialist
government transforms the comic books in to a
propagantistic tool that will be used later by the military
government. However, many people think the ninth art didn't
die when Chilean democracy fell. -- Abstracts as printed

Asian Comics / John A. Lent. -- Jackson : University Press of
Mississippi, 2015. -- Includes bibliographical references
and index. -- Summary (from publisher via SkyRiver): "Grand
in its scope, Asian Comics dispels the myth that, outside
of Japan, the continent is nearly devoid of comic strips
and comic books. Relying on his fifty years of Asian mass
communication and comic art research, during which he
traveled to Asia at least seventy-eight times and visited
many studios and workplaces, John A. Lent shows that nearly
every country had a golden age of cartooning and has
experienced a recent rejuvenation of the art form. As only
Japanese comics output has received close and by now
voluminous scrutiny, Asian Comics tells the story of the
major comics creators outside of Japan. Lent covers the
nation and regions of Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, Hong
Kong, India, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, Myanmar, Nepal,
the Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand,
and Vietnam. Organized by regions of East, Southeast, and
South Asia, Asian Comics provides the 178 black and white
illustration and detailed information on comics of sixteen
countries and regions--their histories, key creators,
characters, contemporary status, problems, trends, and
issues. One chapter harkens back to predecessors of comics
in Asia, describing scrolls, paintings, books, and puppetry
with humorous tinges, primarily in China, India, Indonesia,
and Japan. The first overview of Asian comic books and
magazines (both mainstream and alternative), graphic
novels, newspaper comic strips and gag panels, plus
cartoon/humor magazines, Asian Comics brims with facts,
fascination anecdotes, and interview quotes from many
pioneering masters, as well as younger artists." -- Call

patchwork narrative of metaphoric truths about humans and
nature. This book taps into deep and often unsettling
imagery to forge a night-time world that vividly
illustrates how the difference between human and beast are
often as thin as the artists' delicate pencil strokes.
Vähämäki and Setola depict the humanity of their beasts as
easily as they indict man for his savagery, all while
blurring the line between humor and suspense." --
