Spiral-Bound cover

Spiral-Bound

184 pgs.

From the publisher: With an ensemble cast straight from a box of Animal Crackers, this delightful tale of ambition, morality, and self-discovery is the first major work by extraordinary newcomer Aaron Renier. Drawn in a decidedly beautiful fashion, reminiscent of Richard Scarry and Lewis Trondheim, Renier has given us a fully-realized and compellingly adventurous narrative, at once both achingly naive and profoundly worldly. This tightly crafted graphic novel is the real deal, and will charm your socks off. A remarkable debut.

Also check out the beautiful poster Aaron designed for Reading Frenzy! Featuring a number of characters from Spiral Bound, these 2 color prints are signed and a limited edition of 200.

Super F*ckers #1 cover

Super F*ckers #1

32 pgs.

From the publisher:  No, it's NOT a sex book! The Super F*ckers are the baddest teenage superhero team around, and everybody wants to join. They live in a big clubhouse, play video games on their state-of-the-art supercomputer, smoke their teammate Grotus' slime drippings, and fight amongst themselves like cats and dogs. Would-be heroes are lining up outside the door for a chance to try-out for a spot on the elite team. But why must they incessantly keep ringing the doorbell? The try-outs aren't until tomorrow. Somebody's got to stop them. This book is outrageously funny, vibrantly colored, and out of control. Just like America. The first issue in an all-new series by James Kochalka.

Super F*ckers #2 cover

Super F*ckers #2

24 pgs.

From the publisher: SuperDan and his sidekick Percy are lost in Dimension Zero, which is a pretty boring place if you're invulnerable like SuperDan. Unfortunately, Percy is not invulnerable at all, and it's killing him. Meanwhile, back on earth, the rest of the team is busy trying to spy on each other in the shower, protecting their soda from mysterious attackers, and converting to Christianity. Do they have to cuss so much? Yeah, they do.

Super F*ckers #3 cover

Super F*ckers #3

24 pgs.

From the publisher: This is the "love and romance" issue ... or, you could say it's the "betrayal" issue, or even the "head injury" issue. Maybe it's the "everything" issue. Emotions run hot and fisticuffs ensue as the plot twists in unexpected direction after unexpected direction. The story will blow your mind just as surely as the intense colors will sear your eyeballs. There's more glorious mayhem in this single issue than in a 100 ordinary superhero books, and more heart too.
