Book Description
Historically accurate and full of enchanting wordplay, this fanciful tale set in Rome in 36 AD follows the adventures of Spartapuss, via his diary entries, as the Feline Empire falls into the hands of Emperor Tiberius' tyrannical heir, Catligula. When someone scrawls a nasty poem about the royal felines on Spatopia's vomitorium walls during a visit to the spa from Catligula and his mother Mewlia, Spartapuss is held responsible. Fortune takes a wicked turn when he's thrown in jail and transferred to a gladiator training school. When the Emperor goes on an endless vacation, the foul Catligula takes control of the Empire and creates new laws. Now Spartapuss's only chance for freedom lies in his ability to defeat his opponents in the gladiator arena.

Wildcat Anarchist Comics
Author: Donald Rooum
Publisher: PM Press
ISBN: 1629632627
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
Wildcat Anarchist Comics collects the drawings of Donald Rooum, mostly (but by no means entirely) from the long-running “Wildcat” cartoon series that has been published in Freedom newspaper since 1980. Rooum does not just purvey jokes but makes the drawings comical in themselves, “getting the humour in the line,” provoking laughter even in those who do not read the captions or speech balloons. The chief characters in the strip are the Revolting Pussycat, a short-fused anarchist who is furious and shouty; and the Free-Range Egghead, an intellectual who would like anarchism to be respectable but sometimes appears foolish. Governments, bosses, and authoritarians are presented as buffoons, and quite often so are anarchists. This thoughtful and delightful collection includes strips from The Skeptic and many more, all beautifully colored for the first time by Jayne Clementson. The book also includes a lively autobiographical introduction that discusses Rooum’s role in the 1963 “Challenor case,” in which a corrupt police officer planted a weapon on Rooum at a demonstration, ultimately resulting in Rooum’s acquittal.

Book Description
Viking dog Beowuff is all bark and no bite, a disgrace to the memory of his fierce ancestors. Beowuff and his bench-mate Arnuf find themselves washed up at the Sine Carne monastery where a peace loving colony of 'meatless monks' work the earth and brew meat-free mead. But the bewildered brothers are under attack from a ruthless pack of Dragon raiders - thieving heathens with the sniff of monk-gold up their savage snouts. Will this day be Order's last? Beowuff might sound familiar to history lovers, because his character echoes the ancient hero Beowulf (1000 A.D.), who appears in one of the earliest recorded poems in Old English. The second episode of an ancient saga for ages 7+.
