From one of America’s most critically acclaimed graphic novel writers – inspired by true events, a startlingly original look at life on the streets of Baghdad during the Iraq War. In his award-winning work on Y THE LAST MAN and EX MACHINA (one of Entertainment Weekly’s 2005 Ten Best Fiction titles), writer Brian K. Vaughan has displayed an understanding of both the cost of survival and the political nuances of the modern world. Now, in this provocative graphic novel, Vaughan examines life on the streets of war-torn Iraq. In the spring of 2003, a pride of lions escaped from the Baghdad zoo during an American bombing raid. Lost and confused, hungry but finally free, the four lions roamed the decimated streets of Baghdad in a desperate struggle for their lives. In documenting the plight of the lions, PRIDE OF BAGHDAD raises questions about the true meaning of liberation – can it be given or is it earned only through self-determination and sacrifice? And in the end, is it truly better to die free than to live life in captivity? Based on a true story, VAUGHAN and artist NIKO HENRICHON (Barnum!) have created a unique and heartbreaking window into the nature of life during wartime, illuminating this struggle as only the graphic novel can.

An elegant new action manga for fans of Sailor Moon and the litany of comics and animation that it inspired, Land of the Lustrous is set in a far future Earth, where humanity's distant descendants live on in a small group of sexless crystalline beings who must fight off an invasion from the Moon. The young gem Phosphorite can't seem to do anything right. "Phos" has nothing but a big mouth and guts. Cinnabar, a classmate, is a loner, shunned by the other gems because of the toxins emitted from their body. But when they get together, they will learn that they both have an essential role to play in the fight against the Moonfolk, who are intent on coming to Earth to abduct the gem folk and destroy their world. A beautifully-drawn new action manga from Haruko Ichikawa, winner of the Osamu Tezuka Cultural Prize.

Under the SeaPhosphophyllite is determined to find a job more suited Cinnabar’s many talents, but with no easy answers to be found on land, the quest turns seaward. Ventricosus the sea snail suggests that the creatures who live there may have the clue Phos is looking for. But the sea is hardly the optimal environment for a gemstone—will Phos make it back to shore in one piece?

THE LONELY WINTER Now with new legs, Phosphophyllite is ready to go to battle. But when that new strength is needed the most, Phos is too scared to use it. Mortified by this failure, Phos undertakes the self-imposed punishment of staying awake all winter while the other gems are asleep. But winter has its own share of dangers...  An elegant new action manga for fans of Sailor Moon!

En este tomo podemos darnos cuenta de lo abrumada que se encuentra Phos por todo lo que no sabe y por lo que irá descubriendo.Así que el primer paso para armarse de valor y conseguir respuestas es pedirle su opinión a Padparadscha, este personaje tiene una condición muy particular que le impide estar consiente, por lo que Rutile se ha dado la ardua tarea de encontrarle una solución y de que pueda volver a convivir con el resto de las gemas, algo que le ha resultado imposible ...hasta ahora, por lo que aprovechando la suerte de que vuelve a estar consciente, Phos decide arriesgarse y preguntarle si lo que está planeando está bien.Me parece algo curioso que precisamente decida preguntarle a Padparadscha y no a alguna de las demás gemas, posiblemente por lo perspicaz que le ha parecido, así que una vez resuelta sus dudas y con un consejo valioso, decide emprender el camino en busca de la verdad; pero para eso tiene que capturar a alguno de los Lunarians, una tarea realmente complicada.Es aquí donde entra en escena otro personaje nuevo, Ghost, quien actualmente se encuentra encargada de la biblioteca y que después de convivir un poco con Phos empieza a sentir una enorme simpatía por ella, por lo que decide ayudarla en lo que necesite.Sin embargo se presenta una situación inusual que requiere que varias gemas trabajen en equipo para solucionarlo, a lo que Phos ve una oportunidad para vigilar más de cerca a Kongou Sensei, siendo que al final al complicarse todo un poco, provoca que su intervención sea de manera anticipada y descuidada, dándose a revelar ante Phos algo inesperado y alarmante, algo tan importante que Kongou Sensei le pide guardar el secreto.Y por si no fuera suficiente, se siente terrible por dejar a un lado a las demás y no esforzarse en ayudarlas, todo por estar en busca de respuestas, lo que provoca que se la pase pensando constantemente en lo que está sucediendo, lo que ha ido descubriendo y de que no tiene con quien compartir esto. Dándose cuenta de que podría necesitar la ayuda de alguien.Y en quien piensa es en Cinnabar, así que le propone el trabajo de ayudarla en su búsqueda de respuestas, pero no era lo que ella tenía en mente cuando le ofreció encontrarle un trabajo diferente a la patrulla nocturna.Así que mientras Cinnabar decide qué hacer, Phos continúa ensimismada en sus pensamientos, tanto que se vuelve descuidada, lo que provoca que cometa un error garrafal que la pone en una situación terrible, dejándonos con un cliffhanger sumamente bueno.De igual manera nos encontramos con situaciones divertidas y de cómo van conviviendo las demás gemas, algo que resulta interesante y que nos da la oportunidad de conocer un poco más a los diferentes personajes de la historia.Sin duda tengo muchas ganas de leer el siguiente tomo, puesto que a partir de este ya se nota la diferencia con respecto al anime y de que de ahora en adelante todo será completamente nuevo.Como siempre, sumamente recomendable.

На смену оглушающей тишине прошлого тома приходит какофония ежедневных забот. Все просыпаются, и неожиданно по истечении трагической зимы бывший аутсайдер и мисс бесполезность №1 становится самым интересным предметом для обсуждения и изучения. На фоне этой бурной деятельности особенно заметно, что двигается она, кажется, чисто на автомате. Она вроде как приобрела то, чего так страстно желала, но в процессе лишилась гораздо большего.(знаю, что у самоцветов нет гендерного разделения, они же просто КАМНИ, но я ничего не могу с собой поделать - они все для меня девицы :с Я чуть не подавилась, когда кое-кто крайне брутальный в пылу отчаяния закричал nii-chan в отношении своей партнерши, такой нежной девочки-припевочки. WTF :с)Все предыдущие события крутились вокруг Фос, и в основном описывали изменения внутри одного конкретно взятого героя, но четвертый том ответил на невысказанный вопрос о привязанностях и взаимоотношениях персонажей, что уже не одну сотню лет сосуществуют вместе. Не ожидала встретить такую короткую, нежную и душераздирающую сцену воссоединения :с I’m glad we broke up.hisashiburi

After his death sometime in his 43rd year, suburbanite Lester Burnham tells of the last few weeks of his life, during which he had no idea of his imminent passing. He is a husband to real estate agent Carolyn Burnham and father to high school student Jane Burnham. Although Lester and Carolyn once loved each other, they now merely tolerate each other. Typical wallflower Jane also hates both her parents; the three suffer individually in silence in their home life. Jane tries to steer clear of both her parents. Carolyn, relatively new to the real estate business, wants to create the persona of success to further her career, aspiring to the professional life of Buddy Kane, the king of the real estate business in their neighborhood. Lester merely walks mindlessly through life, including at his job in advertising. His company is downsizing, and he, like all the other employees, has to justify his position to the newly hired efficiency expert to keep his job. Things change for Lester when he falls in love at first sight with Jane's more experienced classmate, Angela Hayes. Both Janie and Angela can see Lester's sexual infatuation with Angela, who courts such attention from any man as a sign that she is model material, she having once appeared in Seventeen and is a career to which she aspires. Lester's infatuation with Angela gives him a reenergized view on life, where he openly doesn't care anymore what anyone thinks about what he does, anyone except Angela. This infatuation coincides with the Fittses moving in next door: homophobic disciplinarian US Marine Colonel Frank Fitts who rules the house with a military fist (that fist being both figurative and literal), his semi-comatose wife Barbara Fitts, and their bright and quietly subversive 18-year-old son Ricky Fitts, who openly abides by his father's rules while behind the scenes lives by his own quite different perspective. Much like Lester's infatuation, Ricky immediately becomes infatuated with Jane; he considers girls like Angela as ordinary. The entry of Angela and the Fittses into the Burnhams' lives ultimately leads to each of the players confronting what is truly in his or her heart.

I am extremely moved by this book, it is as relevant and important today as it was when it was first published over 30 years ago, possibly even more so. Maus tells the story of Vladek Spielgeman, a Jewish survivor of the Holocaust. His son, Art Spiegelman, is an illustrator and wants to write the story of his father's experiences during World War II. The story is also of Art himself, the interviews and relationship with his father. The story alternates between the present day interviews and shifts into the past through Vladek's recollections. The illustrations are straightforward and in a black-and-white style.  I highly recommend this book, it is a powerful and emotional story. I am starting the second volume right away.  FINAL NOTE: below is what I found to be one of the most powerful scenes in the book.
