Essential Marvel Horror Volume 2 TPB (v. 2)
Steve Gerber, Tony Isabella, ...

Marvel Comics, 2008

A voodoo virtuoso. A devil-tainted demi-druid. A half-mad minister. A creature of the crypts, a man-mountain of marble, and a giddy giggling ghoul - these are the horrific heroes who protect the world from forces even more frightening than themselves! Demons, zombies, warlocks, and terrorists - all in these nightmarish narratives from the shocking ...

Seeing the Form (The Glory of the Lord : a Theological Aesthetics)

Hans Urs Von Balthasar

Ignatius Press, 1982

A masterpiece on Beauty
Hans Urs von Balthasar was one of the most preeminent XXth century catholic theologians, and this is, in my opinion, his most important work - by this I mean the whole trilogy (Glory, Theodrammatica, Theologica). This first volume of Glory, Seeing the Form (Schau der ...

Studies in Theological Style: Clerical Styles (The Glory of the Lord : a Theological Aesthetics)

Hans Urs von Balthasar, John Kenneth Riches

Ignatius Press, 1984

An amazing theology
I've read many works of theology and most are fairly forgettable. They trot out the basic dogma of their sect, usually followed in a mechanical fashion with the usual quotations from the Bible or from tradition. Yet sometimes you are lucky enough to come across a ...

The Bible: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions)

John Riches

Oxford University Press, USA, 2000

Great Book!
I picked this book up about a year and a half ago. I am a guitar player, but I wanted to learn the basics of the bass. Since I play different sytles, this book really fit the bill. I really got the jist of the syles covered in a hurry. The tunes are fun to play as ...

Essential Luke Cage/Power Man, Vol. 2 (Marvel Essentials) (Vol 2)

Don McGregor, Bill Mantlo, ...

Marvel Comics, 2006

"Who is the man that'd risk his neck for his brother-man?" (Has it already been used?)
One of the good aspects of Mr. Cage (and I don't mean Nicholas, of course!!!) is that he doesn't want to be a world-saving superhero; although he wears a rather flashy costume and, sometimes, goes toe-to-toe with superheavies like "Dr. Doom" (but, then again, who ...
