Maar hoe kunnen wij, het volk, begrijpen wat de beurshandelaren, de overheden en de banken weten (of zeggen te weten)? Lees Economix, een stripverhaal over economie! Het boek vertelt het volledige verhaal van de economie; van de opkomst van het Westerse economische denken tot aan de Occupy Wall Street-beweging. Met veel gevoel voor humor en in heldere bewoordingen vertelt auteur Michael Goodwin hoe we door de eeuwen heen over de economie dachten en hoe de geschiedenis zich verhoudt tot de economische realiteit van alledag. Gecombineerd met illustraties van Dan Burr maakt Economix van de economie een toegankelijk en leuk verhaal vol bijzondere feiten en boeiende personages.

Freddie Block a grandi de cinq ans, il va désormais vers ses 18 ans et travaille dans un cirque dont le spectacle vedette est celui d''un escapiste qui feint sa propre pendaison. Membre d''une cellule communiste il devient agent de liaison entre les mouvements sociaux de son pays. Mais un méchant duo de casseurs de grève traque les mêmes informations... Il aura fallu attendre 25 ans aux Etats Unis, et seulement 10 en France, pour avoir la suite des aventures de Freddie, mais le résultat méritait l''attente : la qualité du récit historique, la richesse des intrigues et des thèmes en font une oeuvre majeure.

In the midst of a rural land-rights struggle, Iris Shaw is a federal conservation officer who is murdered in a bombing by a rag-tag band of right-wing activists. Little do her killers know that Iris wasn''t their only victim, and now, with the help of the Crow, Iris must exact vengeance for her own death, and that of her unborn baby. Raised from her grave and armed with cold-blooded hatred and a few deadly weapons, Iris hunts down her killers one by one. But if exacting ultimate pain is the goal, when does vengeance cross the line to brutality? And what is the price of the soul?
