Sam finds himself riding along with a now wanted artificial intelligence. As Ms. Teller mobilizes a defense, it's a race to the research facility, with Sam needing to get inside to find out what's really behind the newest cyber attack. The situation is slowly slipping out of Sam's control as it begins a spiral that will change the online world as we know it.

## Description

Set in the not-so-distant future, the internet has grown to the point where people now hook themselves up to it, and live out their lives without ever having to go back to the real world.

In this online world, we’ve created a world that depicts the future we have always imagined. Massively tall buildings that scratch at clouds, flying cars, amazingly quick transport. Sounds pretty great, huh? Well, one person doesn’t think so. And that would be our hero. Sam Wyerznowski.

Sam here,  Sam was originally part of the creation of this online world. However, none of that matters to him now. Sam only wants to redeem himself in the eyes of his long term crush. Katie. Something that looks nigh impossible thanks to Sam’s previous interaction with her.

Not only that, but Sam has recently been on a leave of absence, or what some people are referring to as a “forced retirement.” This retirement was brought on by events **completely in** Sam’s control. And I mean completely.

Yet, when one of the research facilities of Sam’s previous employer, Ms. Teller, is attacked, she has no choice but to turn to the one person who can help her. That person was unfortunately unavailable, so now she is stuck with Sam. Can Sam shake off the rust in time to survive this whole ordeal? Will he get a shot to prove Katie his worth? Or is he about to discover the problem he’s stumbling into is much larger than he could have ever imagined? (Spoilers: it is!)

There’s one more chance to re-connect.

Ce livre raconte une vraie de vraie tragédie du Grand Nord. Non de ces petits drames qui arrivent à n’importe qui tous les jours; non, une vraie catastrophe d’envergure internationale — tellement grosse que certains auraient préféré la garder secrète, en fait.

Premier livre de Michel Hellman, qui a le culot de mêler dans un même récit le poétique au politique.

This book tells a true tragedy of the Far North. Not from those little dramas that happen to anyone every day; No, a real catastrophe of international scale - so big that some would have preferred to keep it secret, in fact.

First book by Michel Hellman, who has the nerve to mix poetics with politics.

From the Earth to Babylon: Gerald Bull and the Supergun

88 pages, B&W interior, colour cover. 6" x 9"

Website

Nominated for the 2014 Gene Day Award at The Joe Shuster Awards

## Description

"From Earth to Babylon" is a historical comic-strip biography based on the life of Gerald Bull - considered to be one of the most brilliant scientists of the twentieth century – whose work affected
the course of two modern wars.

Bull’s research led him across the globe, from Canada, to the Pentagon in the US, to Barbados, South Africa and Iraq – where he developed the “Supergun” for Saddam Hussein, and ultimately to
Brussels, where he was assassinated in 1990.

Much like a John LeCarre story of drama, intrigue and international politics, theories still abound as to who was responsible – ranging from Iran, the CIA, the Israeli Mossad, to the Iraqis themselves. Though his family is still searching, his assassin has never been found and the case remains open in Belgium.

Death Row Sorcerer

## Basic info

Writer/Artist **Nick O'Gorman with Kurt Belcher**

Letters by**Nick O'Gorman**

Funded on Kickstarter

Death Row Sorcerer is a whimsically dark 48-page psychedelic supernatural/prison adventure written, drawn and coloured by Nick O’Gorman with Kurt Belcher as co-writer.

Magic spells, lockdowns, necromancy, prison shivs, toilet potions, riots and more, Death Row Sorcerer is an action pact romp combining the well-known tropes of prison-fiction with the zannyness of Evil Dead. Nick O’Gorman’s art vividly creates a colourful world that leaps off the page, where your ethereal witch-familiar may just be some mangey prison cat and tomes of magic are one inter-library loan away!

## Description

The story centers around Mafia lackey Dresden Lang, a man whose gambling debts are catching up to him. After a botched burglary Lang is sent to death row after he (accidently) killed somebody in the commission of a felony. Between adjusting to prison life, reading legal books and drafting his own appeals, Dresden’s execution date nears and his window to escape the state-sanctioned terminus draws close. All hope seems lost… until he is struck by a sudden inspiration; where legal-craft had failed, perhaps a (slightly) blacker, darker art may succeed!

## Description

Welcome to a world where fame and gold chains are one in the same. A world where signing your soul away fora record deal means exactly that, and the sacred religion of music is on the brink of extinction.

Money and power in this world are directly associated with the most sucessful record label in the country...$inCity Records. Sincity Records roster consists of 3 rappers (Zig zag Kama Sutra 94) and one producer (The Beat Demon). They were each awarded a red gold chain as a signing bonus and promised 7 years of success in the music industry but as we all know if It sounds to good to be true...it usually is.

The real story begins when a sinister group known only as The 11„Click start hunting the Sincity artist's down one by one and snatching their chains right off their necks. What the villains know and the Sincity artist's don't is that each one of the chains have properties that give the person wearing them mystical powers. For 9\_4, The Beat Demon, Zig Zag and Kama Sutra time is running out because in the wrong hands the chains power could lead to the end of life on earth as they know it

Can 9\_4 and his labelmates stop the hi-Click before it's too late ?

## Description

The Forever Maps begins in 1794 when a young man named John leaves home. No longer willing to suffer the abuse of his father or see his mother hurt protecting him, he sets out on his own and comes across a weak old man who reluctantly asks him for help with a map. When they follow it, they find a mysterious wooden box carved into a tree stump. Inside, another map. The old man smashes the box, angry, infuriated! He wants nothing to do with it, and forces John to take it. When John follows this new map, he finds identical boxes leading him all across the country. For decades he does this, fixated on finding something -- anything -- other than a map, until he realizes that as long as he follows them, he doesn’t get older. And it’s not until nearly a century later that he learns when he stops, even for an hour, his age quickly catches up.

Torn between family and immortality, John must continually choose between living forever and having a life worth living. The first chapter explores his relationship with his parents; angry at his father, fearful for his mother. In the second chapter, John falls in love and wants to be there for his new family, but he knows that when he does, he'll die. In the last chapter, John learns the hardest lesson of his life as he becomes the father he swore he'd never be, and then has to fight for redemption.

A violent dystopian war meets a girl who bleeds memories. Told in stunning technicolor against a black and white world, this is the tale of a bygone life grasping for a chance to live again.

November 2X66. A young soldier lies dead on the battlefield, waiting to be buried in a mass grave with her platoon. Victim to a cruel and unending war, the only mark of her existence is a memory–slowly bleeding out onto the rotted earth:

*The joy. The sadness. The excitement. The loneliness. The love. The fear.*

**A lifetime of memories. Bled out one by one. Soon to be forgotten forever.**

This is the life of Julie Rao.

They say war is a story told by the survivors, but what of the stories that never got told? Taking the heart and soul of *Stand by Me* with the mournful suspense of *Grave of the Fireflies*, AND WE LOVE YOU is a **64-page graphic novella** about about **war, regret, and the crushing tragedy of dying young**. It is a life story told in blood spilt, and a candid reminder of just how little we know about the people we love.

The city hired a private military contract named XPEL to take care of the tweaks who didn’t like the idea. To the tweaks that opposed… well they didn’t have tweak proof prisons at the time. Soon after, Echo City became an economic superpower! Adrian soon went to school and landed a job as a forensic accountant. Though this didn’t change his resentment for what tweaks took from him.

EPOCHS issue 1

## Basic info

Written by: Greg Moser & Cody Yeo

Art by: Christian Wolfe

24 black & white pages

## Description

EPOCHS is an ongoing comic, encapsulating the charm and versatility of short stories taking place within a common universe. Drawing from different moods and genres (from crime noir to science fiction), EPOCHS has the feeling and look of Sin City meets The Twilight Zone. These stand-alone short stories will share common characteristics and develop into an intricate history that reveals itself naturally throughout the series. These connections between stories will allow us to take things in any direction we feel suitable, while keeping everything in the universe connected.

Every issue of EPOCHS will contain multiple short stories of varying genre and length. Issue #1 has a fifteen page, one-shot, crime thriller titled "The Straight and Narrow" and an eight page, psychological sci-fi story titled "Rivers Of Oblivion". Many of our stories will be serialized into multiple parts and "Rivers Of Oblivion" will be featured through issues one to three. At the end of every EPOCHS comic will be a one page, expressive dialogue piece which features us, the creators, as characters living within this comic universe.

***"THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW"*** is the opening story of the series, written by Cody Yeo. It is the tale of Andre Solitaire, an ex-detective, who's drug addictions lost him both his job and family. One evening he receives a note from a local drug dealer named Simon, saying he has his wife and daughter hostage and will kill them if he doesn't receive the "evidence" by midnight. In a drunken, coked out rage, Andre heads out into the night with one thing on his mind... *Kill Simon.*

Along his journey Andre comes across friends and foes who each uniquely shape his view of the true meaning of retribution. Will he be able to save his family? Can he overcome his demons? Is he ever going to get himself back on THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW?

"RIVERS OF OBLIVION" is a supernatural, psychological thriller written by Greg Moser, that will keep readers guessing until the last page. Our main characters, Jim, a mechanic, and Aaron, a musician, are two brothers who live together sharing a routine life. One day Aaron mysteriously goes missing and Jim begins to question the strange things going on around him.

Finding it increasingly harder to tell the difference between reality and his dreams, Jim is plagued by visions of his brother. Is Jim losing his mind? Will he find out what happened to his brother, or is he forever lost in the RIVERS OF OBLIVION?

FIB Chronicles

## Basic info

Written and drawn by **NeMo Balkanski**

Softcover, 56 pages, Colour, 9 x 12 in

Published by The Publishing Eye

Website ~ Amazon.ca ~ Facebook

## Description

Once upon a time, a subterranean organization called FIB (Fabulous Investigation Bureau) was created to investigate very suspicious characters and other experts for public unrest. That was when normality transformed into insanity...

NeMo Balkanski's FIB Chronicle explores the eternal flaws of human beings through uncompromising satirical and impertinent tales based on his own experiences. A doomed world filled with voracious greed, consumerism, ultra violence, dehumanization... These snapshots of reality are themselves part of a broader reflection about freedom of choice and free will in an environment where social pressure has never been so strong. In the end, it's all about people, delusional people that act irrationally because they lost their bearings.

An astonishing variety of versed drawing styles combined with a revolutionary way of storytelling, NeMo boldly creates a new chapter in the history of comic art. With its tempting visuals, this comic easily engages its readers and absorbs them into a net of diverse and irrational sensations but also unique and powerful impressions...

It uncompromisingly forges a completely new dimension by disregarding the structure of comic book series, through short and striking forms, using disposable super-anti-heroes made out of ordinary beings.

In Volume One, Nicola and Albert face off against a young wizard named Damien LeVey.  Damien and his mother have recently moved to Tranquil following his parents’ divorce.  Damien enacts a desperate plan, filled with dark magic, that he thinks will let him return to live with his father, a not-too-successful west coast supervillain.

Stresing and a cover by veteran comic book artist Lee Moder.  The 76-page story will first be released in both print and digital format to supporters of the Kickstarter campaign in the Fall of 2017.  A wider print release to comic book shops and other brick-and-mortar booksellers is in the works for later in the year.

The earth’s resources are being systematically destroyed across the globe, and the true motives of the F.I.S.T. are shrouded in mystery.

## Description

Equal parts action and drama, *Earthsong*is one of the longest running epic fantasy webcomics on the internet!  It has been free to read at  earthsongsaga.com for 12 years and concluded October 2016

The *planets* are living powerful beings and the sentient species that occupy their surfaces are their *children*. They face a crisis when their *elemental lifeblood* begins to seep into the children, eventually culminizing into a *soulstone* which gives them great powers, but at the cost of their life and eventually that of the planets’ too. One childless planet, Earthsong, is given the task of retrieving these children from their homeworlds and bringing them to her surface where they are safe. She is given tools made of *Siderean*, or star, element which allow her to remove the soulstone from its host and both back to their planet of origin. Visiting children remember little of their previous lives while on Earthsong and when they return they recall only glimmers of what occurred during their time away. These individuals often build up legends and myths around their strange and fragmented memories of alien species.

Canadiana

***Canadiana***, also known as the "New Spirit of Canada", is a webcomic created by Sandy Carruthers, drawing heavily on the traditions of the superhero genre, centred on the adventures and personal life of Jennifer Neuwirth.

## Series Overview: Background, Themes and History

While created by Sandy Carruthers, Carruthers is aided in chronicling Canadiana's adventures by penciller Jeff Alward and scripter Mark Shainblum, the latter of whom is known in Canadian comics as a practitioner of superhero genre deconstruction via Northguard and parody via Angloman. This series, however, takes Shainblum in concert with series creator Carruthers and co-artist Alward in a somewhat different direction from either of his previous genre explorations.

Serialized in what was initially intended to be a weekly basis in fifty-two installments, but eventually settled into a semi-monthly framework, the origin story of *Canadiana* deals with several mature themes including religious theory and particularly afterlife possibilities, cult programming, parental betrayal, and the survival of sexual abuse in the course of explaining the beginnings of Jennifer Neuwirth's extraordinary abilities and her decision to adopt a costumed identity as a champion of Canada.

Neuwirth's powers as a "Spirit of Canada", apparently either a genetic or mystical gifting from birth include: flight, enhanced strength sufficient to lift and carry an average family car at minimum, energy blasts, teleportation and interdimensional travel.

Born to parents who had fallen into and out of nearly every major organized religion active in Canada by her late pre-teens, Neuwirth found herself prey of a cult leader named Robertson (full name as yet unrevealed) whose appetites extended to the paedophilic and whose persuasive abilities moved her parents to ignore all cries for help. How Neuwirth escaped and chose her current superheroic avocation is as yet untold.

Her battles with her former abuser continue as he persists in operating his cult, now known as the Church of the Resistance, and its security force is tailored specifically to deal with the likes of Canadiana: its operatives are apparently mainly female, fanatically loyal to Robertson, and possess powers of their own of similar nature to Canadiana(but of lesser scale) thanks to Robertson's alleged ability to activate such powers via sexual relations.

Neuwirth is allegedly not the first such "Spirit of Canada", nor is Canada apparently alone in having such "Spirits", according to one of Neuwirth's acquaintances, psychic Naomi Silberstone. The details of this claim have yet to be explained in future *Canadiana* stories, which are expected to continue in the months ahead.
