The Boondocks - New Arrival
The first anthology of the beloved comic strip that inspired the critically acclaimed Cartoon Network show. In 1999, Aaron McGruder launched a cultural phenomenon with his smart and bitingly satirical comic strip, The Boondocks. It centers on the experiences of two young African-American boys, Huey and Riley, who move from inner-city Chicago to the suburbs (or the "boondocks" to them). The strip fuses hip-hop sensibilities with Japanese anime-style drawings and a candid discussion of race. In this first collection Boondocks cartoons, you'll discover the funny yet revealing combination of superb art and envelope-pushing content in one of the most unique strips ever.
Ghost Story Saga - The Five Samurai - New Arrival
When a freakish summer storm forces five celebrated, veteran Samurai to seek shelter in a country tavern, they attempt to keep boredom at bay by drinking warm sake, gambling, complaining, and scaring one other by sharing ghost stories. As is the tradition during Obon, once the candles are lit, and the storytelling begins, our veteran Samurai each scrape the damned depths of their blighted souls for tantalising tid-bits of terror.
