Alone Vol 11: The Nailers In The Night
By Gazzotti & Vehlmann Publisher: Cinebook ISBN: 9781849185387 This one’s a shocker. Gazzotti and Vehlmann have crafted an interesting premise with their series to date.

You might well be aware (because I’ve been banging on about them) of the Marsupilami books. They tell the tale of the South American rainforest where the […]
