JIM THOMPSON’S THE KILLER INSIDE ME #1 (OF 5) writer Devin Faraci • artist Vic Malhotra cover Vic Malhotra (REG) Robert Hack (SUB)

Copyright © 1952 by Jim Thompson, copyright © renewed 1980 by Alberta Thompson. Foreward copyright © 1988 by Stephen King. Excerpt from The Grifters copyright © 1963 by Jim Thompson, copyright © renewed 1991 by Alberta H. Thompson.

Jim Thompson’s sinewy, brutal, and beloved novel comes to life as a five-part graphic noir. Adapted by writer Devin Faraci (Birth. Movies. Death.) and illustrated with gut-punchingly vivid art by Vic Malhotra (Murder Book). In THE KILLER INSIDE ME, Thompson went where few have dared, giving us a pitch-black glimpse into the mind of the American serial killer years before Charles Manson, John Wayne Gacy, and Brett Easton Ellis’s American Psycho, in the novel that will forever be known as the master performance of one of the greatest crime novelists of all time. Lou Ford is the deputy sheriff of a small town in Texas. The worst thing most people can say against him is that he’s a little slow and a little boring. But, then, most people don’t know about the sickness—the sickness that almost got Lou put away when he was younger. The sickness that is about to surface again. FC • 32 pages •

MARCH BOOK 3 writer Congressman John Lewis & Andrew Aydin • artist/cover Nate Powell Top Shelf is honored to present the stunning conclusion to the award-winning and bestselling MARCH trilogy. By Fall 1963, the Civil Rights Movement is an undeniable keystone of the national conversation, and as chair of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, John Lewis is right in the thick of it. With the stakes continuing to rise, white supremacists intensify their opposition through government obstruction and civilian terrorist attacks, a supportive president is assassinated, and African-Americans across the South are still blatantly prohibited from voting.

To carry out their nonviolent revolution, Lewis and an army of young activists launch a series of innovative projects, including the Freedom Vote, Mississippi Freedom Summer, and a pitched battle for the soul of the Democratic Party waged live on national television. But strategic disputes are deepening within the movement, even as 25-year-old John Lewis heads to Alabama to risk everything in a historic showdown that will shock the world.

CHRIS SAMNEE’S DAREDEVIL: ARTIST’S EDITION HC writer Mark Waid • artist/cover Chris Samnee IDW Publishing launched the very first Artist’s Edition in 2010. It was a bold concept that to date has garnered five consecutive Eisner Awards in the category of Best Archival Project. With the release of Chris Samnee’s Daredevil Artist’s Edition we continue to stay ahead of the pack by featuring not one, not two, but THREE versions of Samnee’s gorgeous original art—we like to think of it as an Artist’s Edition triple play! This amazing collection will be presented in TWO books. The first, a hardcover featuring Daredevil Issues 23 - 27. Since these books were lettered digitally, you will see more of the Samnee’s original art than ever before! Additionally, all of Chris’ beautiful layouts will be printed here, again, scanned from the original art. The second book will be a horizontal softcover, printing all Mark Waid’s scripts—but that’s not all—Samnee’s artistic technique involves drawing thumbnail breakdowns ON the script pages themselves. Which means there are THREE versions of art presented, plus the actual script enabling you to read along with the story! Additionally, these two books will come in a handsome slipcase. You’ve heard the term “Artist’s Artist?” This will be an “Artist’s Artist’s Edition!” HC/TPB w/slipcase • BW

CORTO MALTESE: THE ETHIOPIAN When Corto Maltese arrives in the Middle East and Africa in 1918, the shifting sands and loyalties reveal colonial powers still battling for domination over each other and the indigenous people. The desert of Yemen, controlled by the fading Ottoman Empire, is the setting for “In the Name of Allah, the Merciful and Compassionate,” where Corto meets Cush, the Danikil warrior with whom he establishes a close yet conflicted relationship. In “The Coup de Grace” the stubborn racism of an English commander of a small fort in British Somaliland leads to conflict with Cush and the Dervish army of Sayyid Mohamed, whom the British call “The Mad Mullah.” The action moves to Ethiopia amidst inter-tribal conflict in “…and of Other Romeos and Other Juliets,” as Cush introduces Corto to the mysterious and powerful shaman Shamael, who hears the voices of the dead and of devils. German East Africa is the background of “The Leopard-Men of the Rufiji,” where Corto is engulfed in a dreamlike atmosphere that reveals how African justice operates outside the constraints of “white” law.
