Daniel Montez Barnes bemüht sich, sowohl die Widrigkeiten als auch das Glück in seinem Werk einzufangen und Lebenserfahrungen sowie Prüfungen für alle Leser zugänglich zu machen. Als Vater und Betreuer, der das Schreiben seit seiner Kindheit als eingeborene Fähigkeit betrachtet, vermittelt Barnes Weisheiten aus seiner Lebenserfahrung. Seine Erzählungen, Gedichte und verschiedenen Genres tragen durchweg eine Moral in jeder Geschichte und bieten Orientierung für die Bewältigung von Lebensherausforderungen und die Förderung von Fortschritt.
In a post-apocalyptic Colorado, Jack Brooks returns home only to find his sister dying from a plague. Before her death, she shares a premonition about Jack's destiny leading him north to protect something valuable. Struggling with loss, he travels to Canada, where he encounters Annie, a mysterious girl with a powerful secret and a massive wolf. Jack grapples with his growing feelings for Annie while questioning her true nature—could she be a naive girl or the key to humanity's survival?
A stormy night. A plane crash. A deserted island--or so it seems. Sonic and Tails find themselves castaways, surrounded by robots hardwired to target them! That's no island--it's the weathered hulk of the Death Egg, and it's crawling with scrapped, rusted, and malfunctioning Badniks! Each and every one of them was created by Eggman to destroy that meddlesome hedgehog, but the mad doctor left other creations as well. Lethal, personal, familiar creations. What other secrets does the crumbling battle station hold? Are all of Eggman's monsters doomed to follow their programming, or can they step out of their maker's shadow? And where can a hungry 'hog get a chili dog around here? Writer Daniel Barnes (The Black Mage, Aggretsuko) presents a nail-biting new Sonic adventure, full of fears and gears, with shadowy, shocking art by IDW Sonic veteran Jack Lawrence (Transformers: Wreckers--Tread & Circuits).
Aggretsuko, the hit Netflix show, stars Retsuko the Red Panda, a young office worker stuck in a thankless job, whose only stress release is singing death metal at the local karaoke joint. With the help of her friends, can she ever find the job satisfaction she craves - - not to mention adventure, the approval of her mother, and even... love?! These comics explore all these issues and more, brought to life by today's top talent!
