Starcraft: Frontline Vol. 3

Starcraft: Frontline Vol. 3

This volume continues the canon tale of a psychic child on the run in the brutal StarCraft universe. The manga anthology collects four stories, one of which is co-written by me and writer/video game designer Dave Shramek, with art by the talented Hector Sevilla. In “War-Torn,” young psychic Colin Phash is on the run and separated from his father, hiding among thousands of refugees on a backwater moon. Even if Colin can escape being captured by a fierce Dominion wrangler, how can he stop being haunted by the trauma-induced nightmares his telepathic powers pick up from everyone around him?

Featuring: Josh Elder: writer of Mail Order Ninja; Ramanda Kamarga: artist of Psy-Comm; Grace Randolph: Writer of World of Warcraft; Seung-Hui Kye; Ren Zatopek; Noel Rodriguez; Dave Shramek; Hector Sevilla; and Paul Benjamin.

Pantheon High Vol. 1

Welcome to Tokyopop’s Pantheon High! You’re not here because you’re smarter, faster or stronger than other kids. You’re better than other kids because you’re the child of a god and a mortal. As a demigod, you’ll get the best education a child of Greek, Norse, Japanese or Egyptian divinity can receive. Here at our Los Angeles based campus, you’ll study subjects ranging from Algebra to Mythstory under noted instructors such as Greece’s oldest mortal, Tithonus, and Japan’s mistress of combat, Ms. Hitomi Hachiman. And let’s not forget our very own Fighting Chimeras–divine league basketball champions two years running. Keep at ’em, Coach Hercules! You may have heard prophecies or seen visions of a great doom looming over the school, but the End Of All Things is no excuse for tardiness and absences will go on your permanent record. The challenges at a school for demigods are great, but if anyone can face them it’s the students of Pantheon High!

Here’s what Publishers Weekly had to say about Pantheon High Vol. 1:
Stunning in its ambition, Benjamin’s detailed story imagines all of the characters of the various world mythologies living together in one universe-and sending their children to the same high school in Los Angeles. Sullen Grace is the daughter of Tyr, Norse god of war; reckless Griffin, child of Hades and raised by adopted human parents, flirts with suicide and tries to bribe Charon to take him home; Yukio, son of the Japanese goddess of luck, skirts by on his innate good fortune; and Aziza, daughter of Egyptian sun god Ra, can use her body to generate intense heat. When a group of renegade mythological students puts the rest of the student body to sleep so that they can carry out their plan to ascend to godhood alongside their parents, the four fight back together. There are laughs aplenty throughout the school day, and there is something utterly charming about immortal beings talking fluid 21st-century teenspeak. The intricate and detailed artwork includes tons of clever puns and historical references hidden throughout; a much-needed glossary at the end points out the mythical background of many of the sight gags and references. This is truly a one-of-a-kind work that entertains with intelligence and humor.
