Shi: Return of the Warrior Returns!
Fan favorite and multi-Eisner Award Nominee Ana Ishikawa triumphantly returns in Shi: Return of the Warrior. In this story over a quarter century in the making we now find our heroine 15 years removed from when she last graced the pages of a comic book. Ana is divorced from her husband, disgraced NYPD detective Peter DeNyse and now lives a peaceful, quiet existence raising their teenage daughter Hotaru. Most importantly, her warrior days far behind her…
Manhattan is once again gripped in fear as a series of gruesome copycat Shi Killings resurface – with the order of victims proving ever closer to Ana. A desperate Ana must now, alongside Dr. Blevins, seek out and stop her former antagonist, Masahiro Arashi before he can fulfill his murderous destiny… a destiny whose road ends with her own daughter Hotaru.
But the grave just might be waiting for them all. For Ana will realize that measured acumen only goes so far in protecting those you love and, once again, the lioness within Ana will resurface to take up her trusted naginata, transform the hunted into the hunter, and unsheathe… The Return of the Warrior.
Last Chance for Shi: Haikyo!
After the terrifying events of SHI: Return of the Warrior, Ana Ishikawa must now save her teenage daughter Hotaru who’s been kidnapped by a murderous "Shi" copycat killer.
But to do so, she’s forced to ally herself with her lifelong enemy, the manipulative Masahiro Arashi. What if it is all a ruse and Ana has fallen into a trap set by the Yakuza Oyabun?
Find out in the critically acclaimed, Shi: Haikyo. An adventure that takes the reader deep into the haunted ruins of New York’s Roosevelt Island as a mother must embrace death so that her daughter may live.
The Shi Universe-Altering: Sakura!
Upon learning that she is full-blooded Japanese, Ana Ishikawa has unlocked a danger that she’s not prepared for… her birth mother’s wrath that comes in the form of a viciously cold, single-minded killer, bent on destroying all that Ana loves.
At the same time, her teenage daughter, Hotaru, having survived the trauma in Haikyo, actually feels empowered by the experience and succumbs to an inner violent streak with savage repercussions.
ROCKETEER: PAVLICHENKO SPECIAL ART EDITION!
In The Rocketeer: Pavlichenko, our hero, Cliff Secord, encounters the real-life, Ukrainian sniper Lyudmila Pavlichenko in the Crimean Mountains during World War II. Lyudmila was credited with over 300 kills during World War II, making her the most successful female sniper in recorded history and as you’ll find out, she is going to have to put all those skills to the test to save our hero.
Working alongside with The Rocketeer Trust, this 32-page, full-color special featuring Billy Tucci’s Rocketeer short story that was published in the Eisner Award winning anthology, Comics for Ukraine: Sunflower Seeds. This book will feature the original story, plus pages of never-before published concept artwork, including rough layouts, pencils, inks, and script. We will also explore just who this extraordinary young Ukrainian woman was and remember the Rocketeer’s legendary creator, Dave Stevens.

“In essence this art special is a wonderful behind the scenes insight on comic book story creation and a project I am extremely proud of, featuring my personal comic book hero, Dave Stevens and my favorite all-time character.” Stated writer-artist Billy Tucci.
"Billy's union of historical figure Lyudmila Pavlichenko and pulpy hero, the Rocketeer, makes a great comic read! This Special Art Edition of the story is a must-have for all Rocketeer collectors!" Added, Rocketeer Trustee, Jennifer Stevens Bawcum.
"So please join us on this fantastic little adventure! Being involved in this project was truly an honor. I’d like to thank Jennifer Stevens Bawcum for her encouragement." Billy continued.
