Deadworld
Long before there was The Walking Dead there was Deadworld. Here is a collection of short stories from the pages of Deadworld, one of the longest running zombie titles in the comics market. Deadworld has had over 100 issues and graphic novels released over the years and sold over 1 million copies. A supernatural plague has been unleashed on the world. The dead return to walk the earth...but this is no standard zombie story. The dead are just soldiers for those who have crossed the Gateway. The lead zombies are intelligent, sadistic, and in addition to having a hankering for flesh, enjoy the tortuous ordeals they put the surviving humans through. Now seven wayward teens on a school bus, scramble to escape the zombie apocalypse. Little did they know that there were also intelligent zombies and they had a plan...and they had a leader, King Zombie. Included in this collection is the very first Deadworld story, 'Black Sabbath', which introduced to the comics audience the hard biting scenes

Dogs and Demons: Tales from the Dark Side of Modern Japan
A surprising assessment of the failures and successes of modern Japan. In Dogs and Demons, Alex Kerr chronicles the many facets of Japan's recent, and chronic, crises -- from the failure of its banks and pension funds to the decline of its once magnificent modern cinema. He is the first to give a full report on the nation's endangered environment -- its seashores lined with concrete, its roads leading to nowhere in the mountains -- as well as its 'monument frenzy,' the destruction of old cities such as Kyoto and construction of drab new ones, and the attendant collapse of its tourist industry. Kerr writes with humor and passion, for 'passion,' he says, 'is part of the story. Millions of Japanese feel as heartbroken at what is going on as I do. My Japanese friends tell me, 'Please write this -- for us.''
