THE HOUND OF THE BASKERVILLES GN
The master of deduction Sherlock Holmes and his acolyte Dr Watson are here
adapted into graphic novel form — a refreshing transformation which seems
“elementary” for books that have previously been made into films with
suspenseful storylines and strong visual elements. Full of intrigue and witty
characterisation, The Hound of the Baskervilles takes readers to the Devon
moors, where Holmes has to use all his logic to prove that the hound seen near
Sir Charles Baskerville’s dead body was not a supernatural manifestation of a
curse, but the instrument of an earthly murder. (9781906838003) (CAUT: 0-0-4)

Recorded attacks includes eye-popping artwork from Avatar Press (publisher of
Alan Moore, Frank Miller, Garth Ennis, and George A. Romero’s Night of the
Living Dead) and frighteningly beautiful splash pages packed with action,
swords, gore, and, of course, hoards of drooling, walking, reanimated corpses
hungry for live flesh. Those who don’t learn from zombie history are condemned
to repeat it. (9780715638156) (CAUT: 0-0-4)

AMERICAN FLAGG! VOLUME 1 SC

artists.
America, 2031: TV star Reuben Flagg is drafted to protect the citizens of
Chicago as a
Plexus Ranger, having pretended to be one onscreen. The inexperienced Flagg must
tackle an America blighted by a biased and oppressive media, dubious “wars”,
widespread political corruption and environmental disaster…
Never-before-collected, this bitingly prescient satirical series is an all-time
classic. This début volume features an introduction by Michael Chabon (Wonder
Boys). (9781845760779)

GRAFFITI KINGS: NEW YORK TRANSIT ART OF THE 1970S
This rare, firsthand account of the birth of the New York subway graffiti
movement during the 1970s is the first and only graffiti book to reveal what
happened behind the scenes when writers put their lives on the line to grab a
scrap of fame from a faceless urban landscape. Through personal interviews and
over 275 full-colour, unpublished photographs, the colourful origins of subway
graffiti are brought to life. Legends such as Taki 183, Bama 1, Phase 2, and
CoCo 144 - as well as the city officials who saw the writers as public menaces
and their art as vandalism - give accounts of every-day struggles, each full of
new advancements, excitement and risk. Alongside archival photographs of
everything from vibrant bubble-letter and 3-D pieces to the Holy Grail, are
maps, images and ephemera that help fill out this story. (9780810975262) (CAUT:

TASCHEN
THE BIG BOOK OF LEGS HC
In this third book of Dian Hanson’s wildly successful body parts series, she
explores how freeing the female leg became central to women’s liberation,
beginning with the French Revolution and ending with the sexual revolution. Over
400 photos document the first burlesque “leg shows” of the 1800s, the
silk-stocking-ed flappers of the 1920s, the nylon-mania of the 1940s, the dawn
of the stiletto heel in the 1950s, all leading to the golden age of leg
magazines in the 1960s. Learn who wore the first high heels, how nylons became a
weapon of war, why Betty Grable’s were the “million dollar legs”, where Elmer
Batters got his start and just what the deal is with feet, all while enjoying
great vintage photos by Irving Klaw, Batters and other great masters of leg art.
