Comics for a Strange World

2017

by Reza Farazmand

Comics for a Strange World takes readers on a journey through time, space, and alternate realities, offering a collection of comics that hilariously skewers our modern age. This book reunites fans with favorite characters and presents even more bizarre scenarios.

Imagine a child arrested for plagiarism, a squirrel adapting to human society with a cell phone—and a gun, and an old man reminiscing about the Internet as a network of millions of idiots creating endless terrible ideas.

In Poorly Drawn Lines, nothing is too bizarre or outlandish to be parodied, making this book a perfect gift for fans of comic books who appreciate a good laugh at the absurdities of our world.

Blood, Sweat, and Pixels

2017

by Jason Schreier

Blood, Sweat, and Pixels, by Jason Schreier, takes readers on a fascinating odyssey behind the scenes of video game development. It explores the artistic challenges, technical impossibilities, marketplace demands, and corporate obstacles involved in bringing any game to completion. The book documents the round-the-clock crunches, buggy-eyed burnout, and last-minute saves that are part of the development process.

From RPG studio Bioware's challenge to overcome technical nightmares to build Dragon Age: Inquisition, to indie developer Eric Barone's efforts to turn Stardew Valley into a multi-million-dollar franchise, and Bungie's creation of the Destiny universe, Schreier immerses readers in the hellfire of the development process. Blood, Sweat, and Pixels is ultimately a tribute to the dedicated diehards and unsung heroes who scale mountains of obstacles in their quests to create the best games imaginable.
