I have a bad habit of falling for unavailable men. But I’ve bested my own record this time. Ewan isn’t just from the wrong side of the tracks…he’s from the wrong side of the living. But I just know he’s the one… My tarot told me so. And it has never, ever been wrong. Not once. But even I have my doubts about the amount of long distance this relationship would take. Not to mention how you get physical with someone who… isn’t. And that’s not the biggest problem we have. He’s not even sure who he is beyond his first name and that something bad is going to happen to me soon. It’s how he got in my shop, drawn there with the message for me when a client’s séance got hijacked and he followed another spirit we can’t find. Now life, love, and the hereafter are on the line, and if we even survive this, the question still remains: Can there be a happily ever after when you fall for a ghost?

A clinical psychiatrist explores the effects of DMT, one of the most powerful psychedelics known. • A behind-the-scenes look at the cutting edge of psychedelic research. • Provides a unique scientific explanation for the phenomenon of alien abduction experiences. From 1990 to 1995 Dr. Rick Strassman conducted U.S. Government-approved and funded clinical research at the University of New Mexico in which he injected sixty volunteers with DMT, one of the most powerful psychedelics known. His detailed account of those sessions is an extraordinarily riveting inquiry into the nature of the human mind and the therapeutic potential of psychedelics. DMT, a plant-derived chemical found in the psychedelic Amazon brew, ayahuasca, is also manufactured by the human brain. In Strassman's volunteers, it consistently produced near-death and mystical experiences. Many reported convincing encounters with intelligent nonhuman presences, aliens, angels, and spirits. Nearly all felt that the sessions were among the most profound experiences of their lives. Strassman's research connects DMT with the pineal gland, considered by Hindus to be the site of the seventh chakra and by Rene Descartes to be the seat of the soul. DMT: The Spirit Molecule makes the bold case that DMT, naturally released by the pineal gland, facilitates the soul's movement in and out of the body and is an integral part of the birth and death experiences, as well as the highest states of meditation and even sexual transcendence. Strassman also believes that "alien abduction experiences" are brought on by accidental releases of DMT. If used wisely, DMT could trigger a period of remarkable progress in the scientific exploration of the most mystical regions of the human mind and soul.

"One of my favourite comics of all time." -Rich Johnston, Bleeding Cool "No discussion of art and writing in comics would be complete without mention of the sublime Longshot Comics...which uses insanely minimal art to tell a funny, affecting and epic story. It's astonishingly effective comics storytelling. Powerful stuff." -Kurt Busiek, Kurt Busiek Resists The legendary epic-minimalistic graphic novel is back in print for its 25th anniversary! Told in an unprecedented format of 3840 panels in a single comic book, The Long and Unlearned Life of Roland Gethers tells the tale of a Welsh coal-mining family through the highs and lows of the British Empire, the Victorian era, and both World Wars. With every character depicted as a distant dot, the bare-bones artwork lends itself to subtle visual humour, and opens the story up to a world of rich character development and savagely witty dialogue. Featured in international museum exhibits, discussed in academic texts, and presented in lectures about sequential storytelling and character design, Longshot Comics has remained a cult favourite through a quarter century of multiple formats, editions, and translations. Read what critics and celebrated comic-industry writers and artists have had to say about this unique narrative experience over the course of its storied history: "It's brilliant, it's hilarious, and it's mind-blowing. There's nothing else like this in comics. These books are pure genius." -Johanna Draper Carlson, Comics Worth Reading "Longshot Comics! It's great! This should be in every library and comic collection on Earth!" -Matt Feazell, Cynicalman "The Long and Unlearned Life of Roland Gethers is the funniest thing I have read in a while. Hilarious and well-written with great dialogue." -Roberta Gregory, Naughty Bits "Everyone should have a copy of this once-in-a-lifetime magnum opus." -Dave Sim, Cerebus "Shane Simmons must get an award. You hear me?! Someone give this man a medal! Longshot is incredible! A monumental achievement." -Mark Frischman, Factsheet 5 "Think it's impossible to become attached to a dot? Think again. Shane Simmons has created a beautiful comic/novella that takes you on a journey of a lifetime in 3840 panels." -Secret City's Instant Teller, Hour "The storyline and script are, by turns, funny, historically accurate, and moving. Although the main character, Gethers, is not an extraordinary man by any means, his life story touches upon many important markers of the waning days of the British Empire. A well-written and hysterically funny story. Highly recommended." -Randy Reynaldo, WGC Notes

A cannon. A strap. A piece. A biscuit. A burner. A heater. A chopper. A gat. A hammer A tool for RULE Or, you can call it a gun. That’s what fifteen-year-old Will has shoved in the back waistband of his jeans. See, his brother Shawn was just murdered. And Will knows the rules. No crying. No snitching. Revenge. That’s where Will’s now heading, with that gun shoved in the back waistband of his jeans, the gun that was his brother’s gun. He gets on the elevator, seventh floor, stoked. He knows who he’s after. Or does he? As the elevator stops on the sixth floor, on comes Buck. Buck, Will finds out, is who gave Shawn the gun before Will took the gun. Buck tells Will to check that the gun is even loaded. And that’s when Will sees that one bullet is missing. And the only one who could have fired Shawn’s gun was Shawn. Huh. Will didn’t know that Shawn had ever actually USED his gun. Bigger huh. BUCK IS DEAD. But Buck’s in the elevator? Just as Will’s trying to think this through, the door to the next floor opens. A teenage girl gets on, waves away the smoke from Dead Buck’s cigarette. Will doesn’t know her, but she knew him. Knew. When they were eight. And stray bullets had cut through the playground, and Will had tried to cover her, but she was hit anyway, and so what she wants to know, on that fifth floor elevator stop, is, what if Will, Will with the gun shoved in the back waistband of his jeans, MISSES. And so it goes, the whole long way down, as the elevator stops on each floor, and at each stop someone connected to his brother gets on to give Will a piece to a bigger story than the one he thinks he knows. A story that might never know an END…if Will gets off that elevator. Told in short, fierce staccato narrative verse, Long Way Down is a fast and furious, dazzlingly brilliant look at teenage gun violence, as could only be told by Jason Reynolds.
