In 1978 when Michael Hart's controversial book THE 100 was first published, critics objected that Hart had the nerve not only to select who he thought were the most influential people in history, but also to rank them according to their importance.

Hart believed that in the intervening years the influence of his original selections have changed; thus, here is the revised and updated edition of THE 100.

An elite spy risks his biggest asset to defeat an insidious international organization hell‐bent on selling the most sensitive state secrets to the highest bidder.

November 2011 HC $24.99 9780785152798 Graphic Novel Marvel World

Young Peter Parker has led a heroic life and tried to live by the simple and powerful philosophy that with great power comes great responsibility, but will that philosophy be enough to save him from the horror that awaits him here? This is easily the most important story in Ultimate Spider‐Man history and maybe the most important story in the Ultimate Universe. Who better to illustrate it than Ultimate Spider‐Man legend MARK BAGLEY, making his Marvel return joined by bestseller Brian Michael Bendis.

First, Wolverine was sent to hell. Then he was forced to fight for control of his own mind against demonic invaders. All thanks to the machinations of a mysterious group called the Red Right Hand. Who are they and what is their grudge against Logan? And how do they hope to survive now that Wolverine has come looking for some revenge of his own?

Thor: Heaven & Earth Steven Sanders, Paul Jenkins, Ariel Olivetti December 2011 HC $19.99 9780785148326 Graphic Novel Marvel World

Paul Jenkins comes to MIGHTY THOR to create a series of tales featuring certain core themes that are of interest to him in this series of character driven stories. Under the umbrella title of "Heaven and Hell" Paul will take the reader on a fascinating journey. One issue occurs just before Ragnarok and focuses on the true nature of lies; that is, how lies can sometimes be a force for good as well as evil. Another story involves the concept of faith and features just Thor and a Catholic priest. Still another issue concentrates on the emotion of fear and shows Thor in a moment of doubt, wondering what it really means to interfere with mortal matters.
