WAR STORIES
HIT THE DIRT! SIX OF THE BEST ADVENTURES FROM BATTLE PICTURE LIBRARY
By the time it was launched in 1961, Battle Picture Library already had two stablemates at Fleetway Publications – War Picture Library and Air Ace Picture Library. To avoid any conflicts with its sister magazines, Battle concentrated solely on stories based on land, although the authors and artists had plenty of scope when deciding on settings for their tales of action and adventure. Stories such as “The Rats of Tobruk” or “Blood on the Sand” pit our fighting men against their bitter enemies in the heat and dust of the desert while “Dawn Attack” or “Shock Tactics” see them fighting hand-to-hand in the European battlegrounds. The Hit The Dirt! collection features some of the finest stories ever to appear in the Battle Picture Library series, providing hours of entertainment for fans of fighting yarns whether they be revisiting the classic comic book series they remember from their youth or heading into Battle for the first time.

NO SURRENDER! SIX OF THE BEST ADVENTURES FROM WAR PICTURE LIBRARY
In all of its grim glory, the Second World War is brought to life in six of the grittiest war dramas ever committed to paper. War Picture Library was the daddy of them all – the first pocket library and for many fans, the best. Debuting in 1958, War Picture Library celebrated the heroic actions of the Allies as they fought back on land, at sea and in the air. Written by authors who had themselves seen combat, from the baking deserts of Africa to the steaming jungles of the Far East, these complete stories gave youngsters growing up in the years after the war an answer to the question, “What did you do in the war, daddy?”. Gathered here is some of the most striking war art ever produced, reproduced 25 per cent larger than the originals. You can feel every bullet hit, every crashing wave and every nerve-shattering explosion. This is military history as you’ve never read it before. (978-1-85375-760-0) (CAUT: 0-0-4)

WINGS OF DEATH: SIX OF THE BEST ADVENTURES FROM AIR PICTURE LIBRARY
When War Picture Library was launched in 1958, it quickly became apparent that many of the most popular stories among readers featured the adventures of the warriors of the air, pilots who soared and swooped through the sky, cannons and machine guns blazing. The flyers were seen as the glamour boys of the Second World War, handling the most sophisticated and technically advanced combat machines ever invented, and there was almost limitless scope to develop stories based around their exploits. The machines that they flew – fighters such as Spitfires, Hurricanes, Messerschmitts, Mustangs and Zeros were lovingly recreated by the finest artists in the brand new Air Ace Picture Library in 1960. Those images are reproduced here 25 percent larger than in their original published form, pulling you into close formation in the thick of the action. (978-1-85375-758-7) (CAUT: 0-0-4)

RAMAYANA: THE DIVINE LOOPHOLE HC
Written and illustrated by a veteran Pixar animator with an amazing eye for colour and action, Ramayana is the perfect blend of pop culture and art – a humorous and entertaining text that makes the story of the Ramayana (the most famous tale in Hindu mythology) accessible to the general reader. Ramayana is the story of Rama, the blue prince, who is an avatar of the god Vishnu, sent to earth to battle a terrible demon, Ravana. At the beginning of the story, Rama’s stepmother deceives his father into banishing Rama and his wife Sita from the kingdom for fourteen years. While in the forest, Ravana takes advantage of their vulnerability and kidnaps Sita, imprisoning her in his palace on Sri Lanka. With the help of an army of monkeys (including Hanuman, the monkey king) and bears, Rama goes on a quest to rescue her. A great battle ensues, which, after great losses on both sides, Rama wins in a duel by firing a shot from an enchanted bow. He then returns to his kingdom with Sita and reigns over an era of peace and prosperity. (9780811871075) (CAUT: 0-0-4)

LUCHA LOCO: THE FREE WRESTLERS OF MEXICO SC
Malcolm Venville’s rare deluxe Mexican wrestling volume, now available in an accessible, popular format. Lucha Libre, or “free wrestling”, is a cultural phenomenon — renowned not only for the wrestler’s high-flying moves, but also for the mythology of their personas. These masked figures (a ritual dating back to Aztec culture) treat their masks — and the identities they embody — as sacred. El Santo, the first luchador pop star, rarely took off his mask even in retirement, and was eventually buried in it. It is such a significant part of the sport (and the performance) that the removal of an opponent’s mask in the ring is grounds for disqualification. Malcolm Venville fell in love with the sport after catching a show in Mexico and spent several weeks photographing and interviewing wrestlers outside the ring in a small portrait studio. Alongside each portrait is the wrestler’s fighting name and a signature quote from these interviews. Among the subjects are an accountant and a doctor by day — but Super Pinocchio and Astro Boy by night. They offer such gems as: “American wrestling is more about the lighting,” “My character is the fastest in Mexico, but not when I’m making love,” and “I combine wrestling with stripping but wrestling’s my passion.” The result is a hilarious and colourful look at this already entertaining spectacle — part sport, part soap opera — as well as a window into the life of a luchador, a world normally shrouded in mystery.

The New York Times bestselling author of Zodiac (which was the basis for the acclaimed 2007 movie directed by David Fincher) now uncovers a real-life mystery of murder, body doubles, and obsession! Marli Renfro was a model who played a part in one of the most iconic scenes in American movies – as Janet Leigh’s nude body double in Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho – only to fade into obscurity, a footnote in Hollywood history. It wasn’t until 1988 that Marli Renfro made news again: raped and murdered by a serial killer with a fetish for the classic Hitchcock shocker. But as Graysmith investigated Marli’s story, nagging doubts entered his mind… The line between art and reality is blurred in this astonishing coda to one of the most memorable screen murders of all time, and to a real life crime that one man was determined to solve!

AKIRA KUROSAWA: MASTER OF CINEMA HC
The most lavishly produced and profusely illustrated volume on Akira Kurosawa ever published, timed for the centennial of his birth. Akira Kurosawa is arguably the greatest of all Japanese film directors and is respected around the world as one of the masters of the art form. This is the first illustrated book to pay tribute to his unmistakable style — with more than two hundred images, many never before published. Delight in seeing annotated script pages, sketches, and storyboards that reveal the meticulous craft behind Kurosawa’s genius. Peter Cowie examines how Kurosawa took the samurai genre to its apogee in such films as Yojimbo and Seven Samurai; his literary influences in such films as Throne of Blood (Macbeth) and Ran (King Lear); and his take on our relationship to the modern world in such films as High and Low and Dreams.
