The Mimosa Confessions (Light Novel) Vol. 1
A high school LGBT+ story of love and transformation--from the award-winning author of The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes (which inspired an anime film) and Wait For Me Yesterday in Spring! Growing up in a dreary suburb, Sakuma has little to brighten his humdrum days aside from his best friend. The bright, talented, and attractive Ushio seems to have everything Sakuma lacks, and his good looks, academics, and athletic prowess make him popular with the girls at school. Past trauma--and an understandable inferiority complex--slowly drive the two apart, and by the time they enter high school, they hardly even speak anymore. Thus, Sakuma finds himself alone. Against all odds, he eventually gains a friend in Natsuki, the sweetest girl in class. The two hit it off gushing about their favorite novels, and he falls head over heels for her. But that very same night, he stumbles upon an unexpected sight while walking through a familiar park: his old friend Ushio, dressed in a full-blown schoolgirl's uniform and sobbing uncontrollably.Sold out -

Moebius Library: The Major
A psychedelic, sequential romp created by legendary comics master Moebius between 1997 and 2009, following a production principle that embraced graphic spontaneity and improvisation. The lead character of this pseudo-story, Major Grubert, evolves in a humorous yet philosophical manner, echoing how Moebius's creations are treated in the Inside Moebius series. Join the Major on his last trip to the nebula of The Airtight Garage, where Moebius rules as the playful Trickster of legend. What begins as a comical jaunt into unusually profound philosophical questions regarding the nature of existence, eventually winds up as a penetrating examination of the relationship between the author and his creation, the latter of whom must necessarily suffer at the heartless whim of his creator, despite the Major's passionate desire for real life--and even freedom--beyond these comics! Translated by Diana Schutz, with lettering by Adam Pruett, Moebius's playfully-drawn, main black and white story is augmented with nine color pages. -
