Summary

Fourth of July, 1971. Five awkward, young men drive to New York City to attend the '71 comic convention in search of love, sex, art, comic books and a glimpse at the city's wicked underbelly. What they encounter changes their lives forever. Visit a pivotal time as comics change from a business to an art form. Meet Allan Caldwell, comic artist, blacklisted since the 1950s for his testimony to the U.S. Congressional Inquiry. Tour the greatest city in America during a period of social disintegration. THIS ISSUE: "Don't Freak Out When My Name Comes Up". At the convention, June’s parents pressure her to promote products in which she is featured as a cosplay model. Despondent, she exits the convention centre. Harold finds her and they enjoy a meal together. Returning, T-Bone tries to convince Harold to pick him as a winner in the Wonder Comics art contest. Allan Caldwell treats Harold like a flunky but Caldwell’s girlfriend is attracted to Harold. Harold is torn between becoming mentored by Caldwell and retaining his self-respect.

    "Global Dictator Handbook" is a satirical, dystopian narrative that uses humor to critique the extreme nature of dictatorship. It serves as a cautionary tale about the erosion of freedoms and rights, reminding readers to cherish their freedom and autonomy.   
     This book's exaggerated scenarios and tongue-in-cheek comedy make it a compelling read for those interested in playfully educating themselves and others about the authoritarian regime that openly states its desire to enslave the entire world under the guise of a global credit score.   
     The "triple threat title" that this book offers are:   
     1. That you will be enslaved by the New World Order. 
    2. That The New World Order will be overthrown and judged by you. 
    3. That the God of the Bible has already won every battle and would love your voluntary alignment with his will as the Author and Finisher of all stories.    
     I pray this satire invites you to invite and trust him, who is faithful and proves that he is outside of our time domain by writing history in advance.  
    The biblical prophetic commentary that we eventually run into is that of my best understanding as an author, and I reserve the right to be wrong about everything. I encourage anybody to search out these things for themselves and make their own convictions about biblical, government and world events.  
     Master FEWNU, The personification of the one million billionaires who plan to enslave the 8 billion global residents, is my playful, creative way of personifying the road to hell that was paved by (some) good intentions of people who nobody voted for.  
     Cheers to your playful reverse psychology education!

    “Usually, when you find physical evidence at a murder scene, it helps the investigation. It points the police in the direction of the suspects and most of the time helps them to solve and close the case. So, when a body turns up with its head smashed in, the first thing the detectives do is search for evidence. When a hammer covered in blood stained fingerprints is found, the case seems on its way to being solved, until it is revealed to whom those fingerprints belong.On paper, it should be easy. A hammer covered in prints, prints linked to someone in the system, someone who has a history of violence and has even been suspected of murder before. It should be easy, but it’s not, because as well as having a record, this same someone also happens to be dead.How can a dead man commit murder? How can he leave evidence at the scene and call the victim’s relatives after the fact? Are these murders related to the strange rituals and dabblings with the occult taken by a known criminal?The Damned Hands is a story of murder, haunting, and the occult, where following the evidence, leads to some very dark places indeed.

    One of the last places you'd expect to find fun is in an elementary-school janitor's cleaning closet. Creator Jef Mallett has given life to Renaissance man/janitor Edwin Frazier, better known as "Frazz," who took the job at Bryson Elementary School when he was a struggling songwriter. He then surprised everyone by sticking around after selling his first hit song; the school will never be the same.Frazz: Live from Bryson Elementary features the diverse cast of charming characters Frazz readers have come to love. There's eight-year-old budding genius Caulfield. He's a constant thorn in the side of burned-out third-grade teacher Mrs. Olsen, who still remembers having Frazz in her class more than 20 years ago. Caulfield needs Frazz to challenge him as he remarks, "School would be OK if it didn't interfere so much with my education." Hilariously naive Principal Spaetzle wants to be like Frazz, and first-grade teacher (and first-rate babe!) Miss Plainwell is getting to know him better. And the kids at Bryson Elementary can't get enough of him! Live from Bryson Elementary is the first Frazz collection and will leave fans begging for more.
