    CATÁLOGO editorialivrea.com Ivrea España @Ivrea JULIO2015 TOMO ÚNICO EL SABUESO Y OTRAS HISTORIAS SEINEN Tomo único de Gou Tanabe. FORMATO: Rústica con sobrecubiertas, 200 pags. aprox. 15x21 cms P.V.P.: 11.00€ ISBN: 978-84-16426-95-9 DESCRIPCIÓN Amantes de los clásicos de terror y de fantasía, ¡os traemos un manga que os encantará! EL SABUESO Y OTRAS HISTORIAS, una magníca recopilación de cuentos de H. P. LOVECRAFT en una adaptación manga realizada por Gou Tanabe. En este TOMO ÚNICO podréis encontrar tres de los mejores relatos cortos de Lovecraft, el archiconocido escritor y padre de la loso- fía del terror cósmico, autor además del universo de los Mitos de Cthulhu: «El templo» (The Temple), «El sabueso» (The Hound) y «La ciudad sin nombre» (The Nameless City). El primero de estos cuentos es precisamente la primera obra que Lovecraft logró publicar, y trata sobre los extraños sucesos acon- tecidos en un submarino, causados por lo que parece ser una pequeña estatuilla que fue subida a bordo en extrañas circuns- tancias y que poco a poco van llevando a la locura a la tripulación hasta que el submarino encalla en una antigua ciudad olvidada. La segunda de estas historias versa sobre cómo, tras la profanación de una tumba dentro de la cual se encontraron un jade verde, dos hombres empezaron a escuchar y a ver muy seguidamente a un sabueso al que, nalmente, deciden matar… hechos que provo- carán una serie de acontecimientos catastrócos para la vida de ambos personajes. Por último, la tercera nos sitúa en un mundo fantástico, concretamente en una ciudad cuyos inicios fueron lleva- dos a cabo por unos seres alienígenas ancestrales de una fealdad grotesca y aspecto reptiliano que eran adorados por los primeros humanos antes de la caída de su civilización espectral.

  • 2010 Spring Catalog.Indb
    Spring 2010 Anime Catalog TABLE OF CONTENTS TABLE Welcome to our Spring 2010 Catalog! I can’t begin to tell you how excited I am that spring is fi nally here! After an incredibly brutal winter, I am ready to see the green return to the world! As we enter our 23rd year, I fi nd myself refl ecting upon the changes in our industry. Just like the changes in the seasons, the market has changed, with many new titles not fi nding a dub release, titles being released in half- or full-season sets rather than single volumes, and the availability of content on non-DVD mediums, such as streaming and video on demand. And, as I’ve said in the past, there has never been a better time to be an anime fan! There is so much value—you can really stretch your buying power, with new releases costing a fraction of what they used to, great fan-friendly sets of niche releases, and bargains galore to be found on catalog titles. We’ve got some great Nozomi Entertainment titles coming this year, including new seasons of Maria-sama, ARIA, and Junjo Romantica. Plus, there’s more up my sleeve, some of which may have slipped out by the time you have this in your hands. You can always check the latest news from Nozomi on the offi cial website (www.nozomient.com). Plus, we’re launching a new YouTube channel for our properties (www.youtube.com/nozomient), where you can watch our shows online! We’re continuing to bring savings to you at our RightStuf.com store, with lower everyday pricing and new products that we haven’t carried in the past.
