Airport terminal

An **airport terminal** is a building at an airport where passengers transfer between ground transportation and the facilities that allow them to board and disembark from aircraft.

Within the terminal, passengers purchase tickets, transfer their luggage, and go through security. The buildings that provide access to the airplanes (via gates) are typically called **concourses**. However, the terms "terminal" and "concourse" are sometimes used interchangeably, depending on the configuration of the airport.

Smaller airports have one terminal while larger airports have several terminals and/or concourses. At small airports, the single terminal building typically serves all of the functions of a terminal and a concourse.

Some larger airports have one terminal that is connected to multiple concourses via walkways, sky-bridges, or underground tunnels (such as Denver International Airport, modeled after Atlanta's, the world's busiest). Some larger airports have more than one terminal, each with one or more concourses (such as New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport). Still other larger airports have multiple terminals each of which incorporate the functions of a concourse (such as Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport).

According to *Frommers*, most airport terminals are built in a plain style, with the 'concrete boxes of the 1960s and 1970s generally gave way to glass boxes in the 1990s and 2000s, with the best terminals making a vague stab at incorporating ideas of "light" and "air"'. However, some, such as Baghdad International Airport, are monumental in stature, while others are considered architectural masterpieces, such as Terminal 1 at Charles de Gaulle Airport near Paris or Terminal 5 at New York's JFK Airport. A few are designed to reflect the culture of a particular area, some examples being the terminal at Albuquerque International Sunport in New Mexico, which is designed in the Pueblo Revival style popularized by architect John Gaw Meem, as well as the terminal at Bahías de Huatulco International Airport in Huatulco, Oaxaca, Mexico, which features some palapas that are interconnected to form the airport terminal.

## Description

While losing ground on the most brutal murders Southtale Gate has ever seen, Detective Joseph Hobson begins to lose his mind. In the span of a week there are dozens of bodies, massed together in a frozen pile of slaughter. With no evidence to speak of, even the messages in blood left at the scenes present more questions than they answer. As fatigue, depression and frustration set in, Hobson seems to be losing on both fronts: within the walls of his city, and within his mind. Can Hobson fight back his own demons and save the people from the worst killing his force has seen? Or will he succumb to the broken record of his mind, and let these demons take him down…and city along with it?

Nominated for an Association of Arts & Social Change Canadian Publishing Award and an AASC People’s Choice Award, *Hobson’s Gate | Trauma* is an original graphic novel written and illustrated by **Andy Stanleigh**, the co-creator and artist for the critically successful *Titan* series.

Commander Rao

## Basic info

Writer/Artist **Fell Hound**

Letters by**Lettersquids**

Funded on Kickstarter

Commander Rao is a 28-page dystopian one-shot told through blazing action and minimal dialogue. Inspired by animated fight scenes from shows such as Legend of Korra and Castlevania, the aim was to create a unique, cinematic action comic with a focus on flow and dynamism, while still telling a deeply personal story of broken friendships and survivor's guilt.

Described as “sci-fi John Wick with grappling hooks”, it is a comic for anyone who enjoys sci-fi/dystopian genres, intense action sequences and character driven narratives.

## Description

Set in a sci-fi future after a decade of warfare against the despot Baron Klaus, a rogue embittered soldier decides to storm the Baron’s manor and kill him herself. A year later, stories are sung of her heroism, but the mystery of her motives remain. Thus begins the tale of COMMANDER RAO, a thrilling fast-paced action comic of how violence begets violence, and how all the heroics of warfare are meaningless in the eyes of what has been lost.

Who is Commander Rao?

Born Kasey Elizabeth Cormack and once a decorated captain of the Resistance Army, little is known about the Commander otherwise. Never one to compromise, she eventually left the army to pursuit her own causes against the Baron, fighting under the new name of COMMANDER RAO. Although her ruthless heroics gave her name renown throughout the land, the girl behind the armor remains an enigma to this day...

Imagine a comic world where all super heroes and villains are ridiculous rubber-wearing deviants. Right, pretty much like our world.

Except more so.

Diaperman, along with his best friend and trusted companion Sleepers, strive to make the city of Megopolis free of the controlling influences of such villains as the Spanker, a rubber-clad ne’er-do-well with a penchant for paddling, and the Black Whip, a demented dominatrix who craves subservience from her minions at the tip of her whip! Other fetishistic characters make up the setting of the city of Megopolis, leaving it up to Diaperman, the Padded Paladin, to fight for justice in his own unique and soggy way.

What? All superheroes ARE closet fetishists. I mean really– if you woke up with superpowers tomorrow, would YOUR first thought be “Gee, I really need to get a black leather catsuit?!?”

Geez.

Aaron Costain’s Entropy follows a golem with a surprisingly modern sensibility, and an even more modern sense of style, as he backtracks through millennia to understand his own creation. Entropy takes place at the intersection of the world’s cultures. Mythologies and religions cross-pollinate, bleed into one another, and form a new soul from synthesis – or they will if our epic hero can outrun man-eating giants, a vicious army of crows, a mute doppelgänger, an angel and one very manipulative, slave-driving cat. Entropy delivers an all-time adventure.

## Johnny Bullet en français

Un homme et sa bagnole

L’histoire principale se déroule en 1974. Johnny Bullet est pilote automobile et cascadeur. L’intrigue est lancée dès les premières pages. Son mentor le remplace dans une cascade, perd le contrôle et meurt dans un accident. Johnny réalise rapidement que la voiture a été sabotée. Néanmoins, il s’enfuit subitement dans le Sud des États-Unis pour participer à un concours. Mais durant sa route, il trouvera sur son chemin quelques entraves et des pilotes de bagnoles qui le mettent au défi. Le tout semble relié, mais ne sait pas trop, car Johnny Bullet est vite jeté en prison!

Johnny Bullet est pour le lecteur de bandes dessinées qui veut essayer quelque chose de différent mais avec un certain classicisme. C’est une bédé qui emprunte la simplicité d’une époque antérieure avec un traitement contemporain. C’est ce que je nomme de la bande dessinée néoclassique. Comme d’autres mouvements néoclassiques, cette bande dessinée intègre les formes stylistiques du passé dans un cachet postmoderne.

## Description

A touching mother / son immigrant story ‘Feast of Fields’ is a reference to the picnics Karemaker took with his mother in the upper fields of his elementary school. It is a graphic biography of the artist’s mother who grew up in Denmark in an orphanage because her mother suffered from paranoid schizophrenia, and her father had left her and her siblings behind. She went on to raise her brothers from the age of seven. The story weaves between her story in the past and the present of the 1990s in British Columbia. Using the objects from her youth as anchors to another time, Karemaker inherits and tries to understand these memories as her son. The book is a tribute to the qualities of selflessness, sacrifice and love associated with motherhood. The story will resonate with anyone familiar with immigration to Canada, poverty, or mental illness. Karemaker constructs the graphic novel through a series of scrolls, densely illustrated, then cut up to make the pages of the book, creating a truly unique visual and narrative experience.There is an immersive Virtual Reality application of the story planned in conjunction with the release of the book.

Civil aviation

**Civil aviation** is one of two major categories of flying, representing all non-military aviation, both private and commercial. Most of the countries in the world are members of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and work together to establish common standards and recommended practices for civil aviation through that agency.

Civil aviation includes two major categories:

* Scheduled air transport, including all passenger and cargo flights operating on regularly scheduled routes; and
* General aviation (GA), including all other civil flights, private or commercial

Although scheduled air transport is the larger operation in terms of passenger numbers, GA is larger in the number of flights (and flight hours, in the U.S.) In the U.S., GA carries 166 million passengers each year, more than any individual airline, though less than all the airlines combined. Since 2004, the US Airlines combined have carried over 600 million passengers each year, and in 2014, they carried a combined 662,819,232 passengers.

Some countries also make a regulatory distinction based on whether aircraft are flown for hire like:

* Commercial aviation includes most or all flying done for hire, particularly scheduled service on airlines; and
* Private aviation includes pilots flying for their own purposes (recreation, business meetings, etc.) without receiving any kind of remuneration.

All scheduled air transport is commercial, but general aviation can be either commercial or private. Normally, the pilot, aircraft, and operator must all be authorized to perform commercial operations through separate commercial licensing, registration, and operation certificates.

Published by: Arbutus Studios

## Description

ACAUSAL is a dynamic, fast-paced crime comic with a hint of science fiction. It's the story of Tara Becker, a disillusioned RCMP officer who must learn to trust a pair of determined criminals receiving messages from the future. Only by working together can this unlikely trio stop a maniacal anarcho-terrorist from destroying Toronto.

The characters in ACAUSAL aren’t moving through time, causing paradoxes and arguing over timeline diagrams. Instead, we're interested in how they react to receiving information from the future, and the dilemma of whether they should intervene or let things play out as intended.

It’s a story about belief, and what happens when your beliefs are challenged. We live in an increasingly divided and polarized time...  so what happens when you’re presented with information that contradicts the things you believe in?

And of course we have a mystery element. Who is sending them information from the future, and why are they doing so?

ACAUSAL is an action-packed thriller full of flawed characters, surprise revelations, and – of course - time travel. It's full of morally ambiguous, flawed characters who are in difficult situations. It’s perfect for fans of Criminal, The Comeback, and Murder Book.

## Description

Some time in the 80's a human woman made love to a space monkey. Eight months later a lunarbaboon was born.

Lunarbaboon is married and has one child. He works as a school teacher and lives a life similar to most North American humans.He is different from you though in a few distinct ways. Lunarbaboon has too many pubes. His body hair count is outrageous. When he eats he never really feels full. He poops 4 to 5 times a day and rarely smells his fingers after. Lunarbaboon is very fast, enjoys foods wrapped inside a taco shell, and never drinks with a straw(even when a straw is required). He is hardly ever satisfied with anything. He pretends to be nice and like human people, but generally he does not like most people. This makes lunarbaboon feel bad about himself.

Lunarbaboon currently lives in Toronto, a city full of humans.

Volume 1 contains over 100 comics from year one. It is 164 pages of full colour and high quality comics with a foreword by the great Zach Weinersmith of SMBC Comics.

## About

Crash and Burn is a queer space opera webcomic and graphic novel that started in 2015. It continues to serialize a page per week at http://www.cb-comic.com

## Series Summary

In the not-so-distant future, tensions between humanity and the ornos — a genderless race of bird-like aliens — are running high. When the H.S.V. Concord, a ship bearing both the ornos’ imperial heir apparent and a group of human peace keepers, disappears in uncharted space, it seems inevitable that the two species will go to war.

But, unknown to those in charge, a small group has survived the crash of the Concord. Led by Cora, one of the human survivors, the group must figure out how to get along, and how to get home… before both their worlds, as they know them, come to an end.

Stories include:

**On Waiting**, award-winning Inuit author **Michael Kusugak** (Baseball Bats for Christmas, The Shaman) and landscape artist Susan Thurston Shirley's tale of a poignant and poetic episode from his early life at the edge of the world.

**Jose Kusugak** and **Germaine Arnaktauyok** recount one of many magical adventures of Kiviuq, the ‘first man’ of Inuit legend in Kiviuq vs Big Bee.

Winnipeg writer, **Nicholas Burns**, presents three stories, **Blizzard House**, with Winnipeg artist **George Freeman**, a science fiction adventure about a teenage couple trapped between futuristic visions of the arctic that are doing battle around them. **The Great Slo-Pitch Massacre** a humourous tale of young love gone wrong during a municipal slo-pitch tournament.

14-year-old **Cassie** needs to run away from home... and her father.

Online, she finds a **secret society** offering refuge to teenagers like herself, but what Cassie doesn't know is that there's something - and *someone* - much **more** deadly behind Sanctuary.

Led to Sanctuary in the dark heart of The Cradle in Charlotte City by the slick **Ari**, Cassie finds a new home that, at first glance, promises salvation, but in truth houses an ancient evil, an evil that demands its misfits carry out its bidding, and eventually give up their lives, in exchange for their temporary safety.

But Dad is on the hunt for his daughter, and it's only a matter of time before Cassie, her father and the denizens of Sanctuary come together in a bloody confrontation - overseen by the twisted force behind it all - that holds the future of Charlotte City in its balance.
