Something strange is happening to the town of Evergreen. What looks like an alien monolith has descended, severing the town from the outside world, leaving its citizens to be…judged. But what that judgement will actually bring is anyone’s guess – including Jo Mullein, the woman who seems inexplicably caught in the middle of the chaos, and Hal Jordan, who has found himself in the crosshairs of an alien force that may prove even more dangerous than the monolith itself.
This top-to-bottom reinvention of the Green Lantern mythology comes from legendary creators Al Ewing and Jahnoy Lindsay as part of DC’s revolutionary Absolute Universe!

Fiction
Dogtangle by Max Huffman
Dogtangle
by Max Huffman

A satirical comedy about an ambitious power couple in a bleak corporate landscape who defy God and nature to create a modern Cerberus for their time.
Dogtangle opens with a town hall meeting in a Taco Bell nestled in the bland corporate environment of Business Park. A man, bleating to anyone who will listen about the evils of current zoning laws, meets a woman who works in pharmaceutical marketing. They begin a relationship. They get married. From their union springs the idea of the Hypermutt: a many-headed mass of dogs that absorbs each new dog it encounters.
This debut graphic novel from Chicago cartoonist Max Huffman, about an awful power couple who defy God and nature in creating a hound of hell for our times, is at turns a rich satirical fable, a white-collar black comedy, and a stylistic tour de force blending elements of abstraction, cubism, mid-century modernism, and visual sight gags. One of the most visually distinctive and funny graphic novels in recent memory, Dogtangle is also underpinned with a deep mistrust of corporate and cultural hegemony, cementing its relevance in our increasingly oligarchal times.
