Christian Cooper, a self-identified Blerd (Black nerd), passionate comic book enthusiast, and expert birder, dedicates each spring to observing migratory birds in Central Park, just a subway ride from his New York City home. In May 2020, while engaged in his lifelong birdwatching ritual, a routine encounter with a dog-walker escalated into a confrontation that highlighted deep-seated racial tensions. Cooper's viral video of this incident reverberated across the nation. In his narrative, he recounts his extraordinary life leading up to this moment and illustrates how his love for birdwatching uniquely equipped him to navigate the complexities of being a gay Black man in America. He reflects on how heightened awareness, honed through birding, serves him in both protests and parks, and shares insights on self-acceptance inspired by birds like the Common Grackle. This work blends memoir, travelogue, and a guide to birding, chronicling Cooper's journey from Marvel Comics, where he introduced the first gay storyline, to transformative birding adventures across the globe. Ultimately, it invites readers to explore the natural world and discover the life lessons that birds can impart, encouraging a deeper connection with nature.

Na jeho hlavu je vzápětí vypsána odměna pět milionů dolarů, kterou chce každý zloduch a mstitel po celém městě získat jen pro sebe. Jenže zrovna tohle se Petrovi Parkerovi právě teď hodí ze všeho nejméně - pátrá totiž po uneseném synovi Harryho Osborna, kterého odnesl neznámo kam někdo převelice zlý. Takže pozor, pavoučci, štvanice na Sider-Mana začíná! Obsahuje komiksy Peter Parker: Spider-Man č. 88-89, Sensational Spider-Man č. 25, Amazing Spider-Man č. 432 a Spectacular Spider-Man č. 254-255.

Lovec Kraven ví, že si pro něj přichází smrt. Rozhodl se zdolat poslední výzvu a přísahal, že polapí jedinou kořist, která vždy vyklouzla z jeho sevření - Spider-Mana. Kraven je však přesvědčený, že na to, aby se mu podařilo pavoučího muže skutečně porazit, musí se jím stát, jak myšlením, tak činy. Teprve pak skutečně překoná svého neporaženého nepřítele. Teprve pak sám sobě dokáže, že je nejlepším lovcem...

KOŘEN VŠEHO ZLA Před dávnými časy narazila jedna nevinná žena na zlověstný artefakt: skříňku ve tvaru lebky. Otevřela ji… a vypustila do světa sedm smrtelných hříchů. O tisíce let později se světem začne plížit zlo – a do cesty se mu postaví armáda hrdinů. Nejmocnější z těchto hrdinů se shromáždí ve třech týmech, z nichž každý nese ve svém názvu slova „liga spravedlnosti“. Každý z těchto týmů má vlastní metody a motivy. Příměří, které mezi nimi panuje, je křehké, ale vydrželo. Až doteď. Ve světě se znovu objevila Pandořina skříňka a její vliv, jenž kazí lidi, se šíří jako nemoc. Vůči jejímu zlu není imunní dokonce ani Superman. Její moc může ovládnout pouze někdo s nejčistějším nebo nejtemnějším srdcem. Planetu Zemi prohledává trojice záhadných bytostí a pátrá po tajemstvích skříňky. Mezi třemi týmy složenými z největších hrdinů světa vypukne válka, která má rozhodnout o osudu nebezpečného artefaktu. A v zákulisí zla číhá ještě větší zlo… V sérii - 3.5

Kdysi byli největší hrdinové, které svět znal. Teď už jsou jen... Dříve známí jako Liga Spravedlnosti! Mají kostýmy. Mají supeschopnosti. Chybí jim jen jedno - mozek. To jim ale nezabrání v tom, aby se pokusili zachránit svět. Ať chce, nebo nechce. V cestě jim přitom bude stát zákeřná Ruleta, pouliční gang harvardských studentů, šéf kosmického teleshopingu... a samozřejmě nepřátelé ze všech nejnebezpečnější - oni sami.

Hlavní hrdina, romanticky založený a poněkud nespolehlivý vypravěč Měsíční stín, provází čtenáře obdobím svého dospívání. Pohledem starce vzpomíná na podivné okolnosti svého narození ve vesmírné zoo a na svou snahu přežít ve válkou poznamenaném vesmíru. Přelomový komiks s četnými přesahy do poezie a filozofie bývá označován jako první akvarelem namalovaný americký grafický román. V souborném vydání v kvalitní pevné vazbě je opatřen předmluvou od jeho scenáristy J. M. DeMatteise a bonusovou přílohou, jež obsahuje galerii obálek, poznámky tvůrčího týmu a ukázky z původního scénáře i námětu. Výtvarnou stránku komiksu v podobě překrásných akvarelových maleb obstaral Jon J Muth a kromě hlavního příběhu, nadčasové „pohádky pro dospělé“, obsahuje publikace také ilustrovanou beletristickou povídku Sbohem, Stíne, jež čtenářům přibližuje Stínův život po jeho bouřlivém mládí plném vesmírných cest a dobrodružství ve společnosti podivného tvora jménem Ira. Nedílnou součástí digitálně zrestaurované publikace jsou rovněž dechberoucí ilustrace Kenta Williamse a George Pratta. Užijte si nadčasový příběh na pomezí sci-fi a fantasy, jejž New York Daily News nazvaly „magickou symfonickou básní ve slovech“ a sám její autor DeMatteis o něm prohlásil, že v něm spatřuje „kosmické setkání Dickensova Davida Copperfielda a Hesseho Siddhárthy“.
