The Red Badge of Courage is a classic war novel by Stephen Crane (1871–1900), an American author. Set during the American Civil War, it tells the story of a young private in the Union Army, Henry Fleming, who flees from the field of battle.

    Born and raised in the small prairie town of Lanigan, Saskatchewan, Jane Smith had to be the most awkward girl around. She had reached an age when her parents were allowing her to experiment with make-up, and all the boys around her were becoming more attractive as each day passed. Especially Todd. He was her biggest secret crush. Unfortunately, Jane was too shy to do anything about it. 
It did not help matters that all her friends now had boyfriends, but Jane still did not. It seemed to her that she was forever cursed to be single in this small prairie town where she was nothing more than an ugly duckling next to all the pretty and sociable girls. 
When Jane was not following her friends around from the movie theatre to the hockey rink, learning the latest juicy gossip from them, and silently adoring her biggest crush, she was alone in her bedroom writing: letters to her Chinese penpal, diary entries, and the beginnings of a romance novel. She often dreamed about her first love and first kiss. Alas, this was a dream she feared would never come true, so she also wished for a new start and a whole new life for herself. 
Little did Jane know that her creative hobbies were the very thing that would make these dreams come true. Little did she know she was capable of magic!

    Whoz Your Daddy: The Misadventures of Mike and Spike is the story of two head-strong sperm cells who are each determined to fertilize an available ovary that they arrive at simultaneously. A debate ensues as to which one of them deserves to father the egg, each basing the opportunity on much of the very same archaic dogma that many humans use to this very day, regarding racial superiority, class, wealth and religion. Mike and Spike soon come to learn that, in the end, as far as all those things are concerned, just being a good and decent human being gives a person far more value.

    He is the law—and you better believe it! 
 
 
 
Judge, jury, and executioner, Judge Dredd is the brutal comic book cop policing the chaotic future urban jungle of Mega-City One, created by John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra and launching in the pages of 2000 AD in 1977. 
 
 
 
But what began as a sci-fi action comic quickly evolved into a searing satire on hardline, militarized policing and "law and order" politics, its endless inventiveness and ironic humor acting as a prophetic warning about our world today—and with important lessons for our future. 
 
 
 
Blending comic book history with contemporary radical theories on policing, I Am The Law takes key Dredd stories from the last forty-five years and demonstrates how they provide a unique wake up call about our gradual, and not so gradual, slide towards authoritarian policing. 
 
 
 
From the politicization of policing to "zero tolerance," from violent suppression of protest to the rise of the surveillance state, I Am The Law examines how a comic book warned us about the chilling endgame of today's "law and order" politics.
