New Releases by Dave Stewart

Siamo in America a metà del secolo scorso, in quella che gli appassionati di fumetto chiamano la Silver Age dell’Universo DC. È un periodo in cui gli Stati Uniti vivono di promesse e dura realtà, di aspirazioni e paranoie, di città che si espandono e baraccopoli segregate, di vertiginosi progressi scientifici e latenti conflitti della cosiddetta Guerra Fredda. In questo momento storico pieno di problemi e opportunità, si affaccia una nuova generazione di avventurieri giovani e audaci che accettano coraggiosamente le sfide della Nuova Frontiera per cambiare l’America e il pianeta intero. Quali insidie dovranno affrontare, in un mondo che si muove così velocemente? Dall’immaginazione del pluripremiato Darwyn Cooke (Batman: Ego), uno dei migliori fumettisti canadesi di sempre, arriva un racconto dal sapore retrò che delizierà gli amanti delle storie di spionaggio e di supereroi e che già dalla prima pubblicazione è stato considerato un classico della letteratura disegnata. [VOLUME UNICO. CONTIENE: THE NEW FRONTIER 1-6, JUSTICE LEAGUE: THE NEW FRONTIER SPECIAL 1]

Sous sa direction, le clan du Dragon Noir a pris le contrôle des quartiers malfamés de Honshu en éliminant avec force et cruauté tous leurs opposants. Mais Hideaki a d’autres ambitions que de régner sur la pègre, il projette de renverser le gouvernement lui-même. Sa soif de pouvoir est telle qu’il imagine pouvoir défaire la junte ultra-nationaliste et surarmée qui protège le pouvoir en place. Rien ne semble pouvoir l’arrêter. Pris entre deux feux, Renjiro va devenir le pion d’une guerre sans merci lorsque Hideaki lui demande de s’infiltrer chez l’ennemi. Entre son honneur de guerrier et la puissance du groupe d’élite militaire, il comprend que sa rédemption va dépendre de sa capacité à jouer double-jeu... Pourra-t-il mettre ses principes de côtés jusqu’au bout et faire émerger le statu quo ? Andy Diggle et Leinil Francis Yu, deux méga-stars de la planète « super-héros », nous plongent dans un univers futuriste riche et inattendu, évoquant le néo-Tokyo de Akira.

A no-holds-barred look into the remarkable life and career of the prolific musician, songwriter, and producer behind Eurythmics and dozens of pop hits. Dave Stewart’s life has been a wild ride—one filled with music, constant reinvention, and the never-ending drive to create. Growing up in industrial northern England, he left home for the gritty London streets of the seventies, where he began collaborating and performing with various musicians, including a young waitress named Annie Lennox. The chemistry between Stewart and Lennox was undeniable, and an intense romance developed. While their passion proved too much offstage, they thrived musically and developed their own sound. They called themselves Eurythmics and launched into global stardom with the massively popular album Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This). For the first time, Stewart shares the incredible, high-octane stories of his life in music—the drug-fueled adventures, the A-list collaborations and relationships, and the creative process that brought us blockbusters from Eurythmics like “ Here Comes the Rain Again” and “Would I Lie to You” as well as Tom Petty’s “Don’t Come Around Here No More,” No Doubt’s “Underneath It All,” Golden Globe winner “Old Habits Die Hard” with Mick Jagger, and many more. From great friendships and creative partnerships including the group SuperHeavy along with Jagger, Joss Stone, Damian Marley, and A. R. Rahman, to inspired performances and intimate moments in the studio—Stewart highlights the musicians he admires and calls friends, from Bob Dylan, Stevie Nicks, Elton John, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr to Bono, Bon Jovi, and Katy Perry. With a behind-the-scenes look at Stewart’s innovative endeavors that keep him on the cutting-edge of the music business, Sweet Dreams Are Made of This is a one-of-a-kind portrait of the creative heart of one of its most gifted and enterprising contributors. With a Foreword by Mick Jagger!
