      Vampirella je sexy upírka zrozená v Drakulonu. V této nejtemnější části pekla krev teče jako voda v mohutných řekách a Vampirella se jí živila. Když přišla na Zem, byla nucena pít lidskou krev, aby přežila.Na Zem byla vyslána na křížovou výpravu - zbavit ji všech úpírů, potomků její vlastní matky Lilith. Při svém poslání se utkala se spoustou mocných protivníků, např. s Krvavou Rudou Královnou, Hemorrhegem a dokonce i se samotným legendárním Drakulou. Při tažení odhalila svůj pravý původ, Vamppirella je první z nového druhu upírů, šlechtěných pro nové millenium. Nemá tradiční upírská omezení: nevadí jí sluneční světlo, česnek, svaté symboly a dokonce ani svěcená voda. Ačkoli má Vampirella nadlidskou sílu, rychlost a zuřivost, její největší síla leží v její sošné kráse a její neodolatelné smyslnosti. Nyní se tato hrdinka v nejmodernějším kabátě představí i v našich zeměpisných šířkách. Neuvěřitelná malba Mika Mayhewa skvěle doplňuje scénář Marka Millara a vytváří tak perfektní mix upírské akční podívané, hororu a dusného erotična. VĚKOVÉ DOPORUČENÍ 15+ Tato kniha obsahuje násilí, sex, sexuální narážky a neslušné výrazy. Kresba: Mike Mayshew.

    • Two decades of video works from an experimental filmmaker and dramaturgist The word "Waldeinsamkeit" refers to the phenomenon of retreating to the forest in isolation. Fascinated by the current trend spurred by this holdover from German Romanticism, London-based experimental filmmaker and dramaturgist John Smith (born 1952) uses the concept as a framework for showcasing the last two decades of his career.

      In 1935 a small boy is found in a mine in what is known as the Belgian Congo. It is a time of ferment; nefarious forces are at play. Against this backdrop, the boy's discovery draws the attention of men of distinction across the globe - scientists, politicians and army men. Soon enough a race begins, to bring the boy into safe custody. After a tortuous journey by train through the continent of Africa, the boy travels by ship to New York, where he is taken into the care of the United States Army. From here our diminutive hero will become swept up in a narrative not of his own making, a narrative that will lead him into the heart of one of the most devastating events of the twentieth century. Audacious in its conceit, thrillingly readable and profoundly humane, Little Boy is a novel of science and politics, of men and war, of compassion and becoming. In prose of baffled grace, it weaves a path through some of the darkest moments in our collective history. Its ending will leave you, like its protagonist, suspended in mid-air, stunned by the awful things that men have put forth into the world.
