F18_London_catalog.indd 2 3/16/18 3:01 PM We Sold Our Souls A Novel

By Grady Hendrix

In the 1990s, heavy metal band Dürt Würk was poised for breakout success -- but then lead singer Terry Hunt embarked on a solo career and rocketed to stardom as Koffin, leaving his fellow bandmates to rot in rural Pennsylvania.

Two decades later, former guitarist Kris Pulaski works as the night manager of a Best Western - she’s tired, broke, and unhappy. Every- thing changes when she discovers a shocking secret from her heavy metal past: Turns out that Terry’s meteoric rise to success may have come at the price of Kris’s very soul.

This revelation prompts Kris to hit the road, reunite with the rest of her bandmates, and confront the man who ruined her life. It’s a journey that will take her from the Pennsylvania rust belt to a Satanic rehab center and finally to a Las Vegas music festival that’s darker than any Mordor Tolkien could imagine. A furious power ballad about never giving up, even in the face of overwhelming odds, We Sold Our Souls is an epic journey into the heart of a surveillance-mad, prescription-popping, paranoid country…where only a lone girl with a guitar can save us all. COVER GRADY HENDRIX is the Bram Stoker Award® NOT winning author of Horrorstör, My Best Friend’s Exor- FINAL cism, and Paperbacks from Hell. He lives in New York City.

PRAISE FOR MY BEST FRIEND’S EXORCISM this new novel from the author “Sharply written...Hendrix has made strong progress as a novelist, of Paperbacks from Hell and and this book...makes a convincing case for his powers as a sharp observer of human behavior, filtered through a fun genre conceit that My Best Friend’s Exorcism doesn’t skimp on the spooky—or the bodily fluids.”—The A.V.

by Fred Van Lente

Comic book artist Mike Mason arrives at San Diego Comic-Con, seeking sanctuary with other fans and creators—and maybe to reunite with his ex—but when his rival is found murdered, he becomes the prime suspect. To clear his name, Mike will have to navigate every corner of the con, from zombie obstacle courses and cosplay flash mobs to intrusive fans and obsessive col- lectors, in the process unraveling a dark secret behind one of the industry’s most legendary creators. Along the way he’s sketching everything he sees (the novel includes 10 illustrations)—and don’t be surprised if these drawings include a handful of important clues. This illustrated mystery will appeal to comic book fans and anyone who appreciates an unconventional whodunit.

F18_London_catalog.indd 4 3/16/18 3:01 PM Ten Dead Comedians A Murder Mystery

by Fred Van Lente

Fred Van Lente’s brilliant debut is both an homage to the Golden Age of Mystery and a thoroughly contemporary show-business satire. As the story opens, nine comedians of various acclaim are summoned to the island retreat of legendary Hollywood funnyman Dustin Walker. The group includes a former late-night TV host, a washed-up improv instructor, a ridiculously wealthy “blue collar” comic, and a past-her-prime Vegas icon. All nine arrive via boat to find that every building on the island is completely deserted. Marooned without cell phone service or wifi signals, they soon find themselves being murdered one by one. But who is doing the killing, and why?

A darkly clever take on Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None and other classics of the genre, Ten Dead Comedians is a marvel of literary ventriloquism, with hilarious comic monologues in the voice of every suspect. It’s also an ingeniously plotted puzzler with a twist you’ll never see coming!

FRED VAN LENTE is the #1 New York Times best-selling writer of the comics Odd Is on Our Side, Archer & Armstrong, and Action Philosophers! He cowrote the graphic novel Cowboys and Aliens, which was made into a film starring Harrison Ford and Daniel Craig. He is also the author of The Con Artist (Quirk, 2018).

F18_London_catalog.indd 5 3/16/18 3:01 PM Giraffes on Horseback Salad Salvador Dalí, the Marx Brothers, and the Strangest Movie Never Made

By Josh Frank, adapted with Tim Heidecker Illustrated by Manuela Pertega

Grab some popcorn and take a seat . . . The curtain is about to rise on a film like no other! But first, the real-life backstory:Giraffes on Horseback Salad was a Marx Brothers film written by modern art icon Salvador Dalí, who’d befriended Harpo. Rejected by MGM, the script was thought lost forever. But author Josh Frank found it, and with comedian Tim Heidecker and Spanish comics creator Manuela Pertega, he’s re-created the film as a graphic novel in all its gorgeous full-color, cinematic, surreal glory. In the story, a busi- nessman named Jimmy (played by Harpo) is drawn to the mysterious Surrealist Woman, whose very presence changes boring reality into Dalí-esque fantasy. With the help of Groucho and Chico, Jimmy seeks to join her fantastical world—but forces of normalcy threaten COVER to end their romance. Includes new Marx Brothers songs and antics, NOT FINAL plus the real-world story behind the historic collaboration.

JOSH FRANK is author of Fool the World: The Oral History of a Band Called Pixies, In Heaven Everything Is Fine, and, with Black Francis and Steven Apple- by, the illustrated novel The Good Inn. In his spare time, he owns and operates the Blue Starlite Mini-Urban Drive-In Movie Theatre in Austin, Texas. When reality and TIM HEIDECKER is an award-winning comedian, writer, direc- dreams go to war, tor, actor, and musician. He is one half of the comedy team Tim & Eric, with Eric Wareheim, known for the TV shows Tom Goes to love is the greatest weapon. the Mayor, and Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!, as well as the film Tim & Eric’s Billion Dollar Movie and the popular book Tim & Eric’s Zone Theory. Created in cooperation with the Gala-Salvador Dalí Foundation and the Marx Brothers estate MANUELA PERTEGA is a comics artist and illustrator based in Barcelona, Spain.

F18_London_catalog.indd 7 3/16/18 3:02 PM The League of Regrettable Sidekicks Heroic Helpers from Comic Book History

By Jon Morris

Batman has Robin. Captain America has Bucky. And Yankee Doodle has Dandy. Being a superhero is hard work, which is why so many comics characters rely on a sidekick—someone to watch the hero’s back, help the hero search for clues, or, if nothing else, give the hero somebody to talk to. But not every superhero achieves the glory of Batman, and not all sidekicks are as capable as the Boy Wonder.

In The League of Regrettable Sidekicks, author Jon Morris shines a hilarious spotlight on forgotten helpers like Thunderfoot (explosive-soled assistant to the Human Bomb), super-pets (like Frosting, polar bear pal of space hero Norge Benson), fan favorites (Rick Jones, sidekick to half of the Marvel Universe), and obscure partners of iconic heroes (Superman Junior’s career barely got off the ground). Included are pernicious profiles of henchmen and minions, the sidekicks of the COVER supervillain world. Vintage comics art completes the experience. NOT FINAL JON MORRIS is a cartoonist and graphic designer and author of The League of Regrettable Superheroes and The Legion of Regrettable Supervillains. Since the late 1990s, he’s operated the blog Gone&- Forgotten, an irreverent in-depth look at the worst, the lowliest, and the most unfortunate stories and characters comic books have ever offered.

F18_London_catalog.indd 8 3/16/18 3:02 PM Manfried the Man by Caitlin Major illustrated by Kelly Bastow

What if cats ruled the world? In this hilarious graphic novel, the roles of cats and humans are reversed, putting humanoid felines in charge of tiny, dimwitted little man-pets. Manfried is a stray taken in by Steve Catson, a slacker with a dead-end job and nonexistent love life. Soon Manfried becomes the Garfield to Steve’s Jon Arbuckle: lazy, selfish, and sometimes maddening in his weird human behavior. Yet the pair depends on each other to get through life’s troubles. When Manfried runs away, Steve musters his meager resources to find his best man-friend and bring him home safe. Ultimately, both Steve and Manfried realize they’re capable of so much more than they thought.

CAITLIN MAJOR is a Toronto-based comics writer and illustrator. She and her partner, Matthew Hoddy, have run successful Kickstarter campaigns to print comics Space Pyrates and The Saga of Metal- beard.

F18_London_catalog.indd 9 3/16/18 3:02 PM Paperback Crush The Totally Radical History of ’80s and ’90s Teen Fiction

by Gabrielle Moss

Every twenty- or thirty-something woman knows these books. The pink covers, the flimsy paper, the zillion volumes in the series that kept you reading for your entire adolescence. In six hilarious chapters (Friendship, Love, School, Family, Jobs, Terror, and Tragedy), Bustle features editor Gabrielle Moss takes the reader on a nostalgic tour of teen book covers of yore, digging deep into the history of the genre as well as the stories behind the best-known series.

Spurred by the commercial success of Sweet Valley High and the Babysitters Club, these paperbacks were cheap, short, and utterly beloved. Paperback Crush revisits this golden age with affection and just a little snark. Readers will discover (and fondly remember) girl-centric series on everything from correspondence (Pen Pals and Dear Diary) to sports (Cheerleaders and The Gymnasts) to a newspaper at an all-girls Orthodox Jewish middle school (The B.Y. Times) to a COVER NOT literal teen angel (Teen Angels: Heaven Can Wait). Some were blatant FINAL rip-offs of successful series (Sleepover Friends), some were sick-lit tear- jerkers (Abby, My Love), and some were just plain perplexing (Uncle Vampire?). But all of them represent that time gone by of girl power and sustained silent reading.

GABRIELLE MOSS is a features editor at Bustle and the author of GLOP: Nontoxic, Expensive Ideas That Will Make You Look Ridiculous and Feel Pretentious (HarperCollins, 2016). A self-proclaimed “elderly tween,” she has written for Slate, GQ.com, The Hairpin, and many other fine publications. She lives in New York with a massive collection of BSC books.

Grady Hendrix

GRADY HENDRIX is a novelist and screenwriter based in New York City. His novels include Horrorstör, named one of the best books of 2014 by National Public Radio, and My Best Friend’s Exorcism, for which the Wall Street Journal dubbed him “a national treasure.” Paper- backs from Hell, his survey of outrageous horror novels of the 1970s and 80s, was called “pure, demented delight” by the New York Times Book Review. He’s contributed to Playboy, The Village Voice, and Variety.

PRAISE FOR THE AUTHOR : PAPERBACKS FROM HELL “Pure, demented delight.”—The New York Times Book Review “Paperbacks from Hell is as funny as it is engaging.”—The Washington Post “Perhaps the best thing about Paperbacks from Hell is the voice of its author... which is always entertaining and occasionally laugh-out-loud funny.”—Creative Loafing “Fans of horror fiction will love this funny and insightful history.” —Library Journal, starred review MY BEST FRIEND’S EXORCISM “It’s clever, heartfelt, and get-under-your-skin unnerving without succumbing to any of the more predictable exorcism story tropes — things happen in this book that you will not expect.” —Fangoria “Sharply written...Hendrix has made strong progress as a novelist, and this book makes a convincing case for his powers as a sharp observer of human behavior, filtered through a fun genre conceit that doesn’t skimp on the spooky—or the bodily fluids.”—The A.V. Club “Readers who thought Heathers wasn’t quite bleak enough will find this darkly humorous horror tale…totally awesome.”—Booklist, starred review HORRORSTÖR “Horrorstör delivers a crisp terror-tale...[and] Hendrix strikes a nice balance between comedy and horror.”—Washington Post “Disarming...”—Wall Street Journal

The New York Times best seller is now a major motion picture starring Lily James and Sam Riley, with Matt Smith, Charles Dance, and Lena Heady.

“It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains.” So begins Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, a bold reimagining of Jane Austen’s classic novel. As our story opens, a mysterious plague has fallen upon the quiet English village of Meryton—and the dead are returning to life. Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet is determined to wipe out the zombie menace, but she’s soon distracted by the haughty and arrogant Mr. Darcy. What ensues is a delightful comedy of manners with plenty of civilized sparring between the two young lovers—and even more violent sparring on the bloodsoaked battlefield. Com- plete with romance, heartbreak, swordfights, cannibalism, and thousands of rotting corpses, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is an audacious retelling of English literature’s most enduring novel.
