¡CON LA APARICIÓN ESTELAR DE SPAWN, SAVAGE DRAGON Y BLÁCULA!
El Cielo y el Infierno chocan en el campo de batalla de Filadelfia mientras las mejores creaciones de Todd McFarlane y Erik Larsen, junto a uno de los grandes iconos del blaxploitation, se unen para invadir las páginas de Killadelphia.
James Sangster Jr. vuelve a Philadelphia para acudir al entierro de su padre, recientemente asesinado. Una vez allí, el misterio del asesinato le conducirá a un mundo lleno de horrores que cambiará sus más profundas creencias. La ciudad que fue una vez símbolo de libertad y emancipación es ahora presa de la corrupción, la pobreza, el desempleo y… los vampiros.
Ahora, depende de Jimmy y de su más que inesperado compañero detener el plan del fallecido Presidente de los Estados Unidos John Adams: organizar un ejército de no-muertos para desatar una nueva y sangrienta revolución en los Estados Unidos.
Y es que hay muchas razones para nunca volver a casa. Bienvenido a Killadelphia.
Este libro ofrece al lector en lengua española el primer comentario integral a los célebres Tres discursos para ocasiones supuestas de Søren Kierkegaard.
Ángel Enrique Garrido Maturano no articula esta tarea por los senderos previsibles: no elabora un estudio filológico, asentado sobre las bases de la vieja crítica textual, que sea rico en detalle positivos sobre fuentes, influencias, varian- tes, etc.; pero tampoco nos ofrece –a contracorriente de ciertas lecturas de los textos del filósofo danés– un relato edificante, confesionalmente concernido, sobre una cierta modulación del cristianismo por la que se abogaría.
La intención del autor es, por el contrario, ente- ramente filosófica: su lectura indaga, de modo fenomenológico y no confesional, en las tres situaciones decisivas de la existencia con las que se confronta –y nos confronta– el pensamiento de Kierkegaard: el tener que reconocerse a sí mismo tal cual uno es, expresado en la confesión, el amor al otro tal cual ese otro es, expresado en el matrimonio, y la muerte inexorable.
Chloe Roberts is on top of the world. After a stellar first year at the prestigious Morton Academy, she’s a shoo-in for Head Girl and a coveted position in the school’s secret society, Jewel and Bone. But her dreams are shattered when her best friend, Nikhita Patel, unfairly snatches the top spot—and steals Chloe’s boyfriend at the same time.
Heartbroken and humiliated, Chloe discovers a shocking truth: Jewel and Bone isn’t as secret as she thought. The rest of the school despises the Jewels, and there’s even a “Book of Crime and Punishment” cataloging their misdeeds. Things take a very dark turn when the names in the book start to correlate with murders of Jewel and Bone members on campus. Suddenly, anyone could be a suspect.

The story of a hero’s descent to the underworld
Alice Law has only ever had one goal: to become one of the brightest minds in the field of Magick. She has sacrificed everything to make that a reality: her pride, her health, her love life, and most definitely her sanity. All to work with Professor Jacob Grimes at Cambridge, the greatest magician in the world.
That is, until he dies in a magical accident that could possibly be her fault.
Grimes is now in Hell, and she’s going in after him. Because his recommendation could hold her very future in his now incorporeal hands and even death is not going to stop the pursuit of her dreams….
Nor will the fact that her rival, Peter Murdoch, has come to the very same conclusion.
With nothing but the tales of Orpheus and Dante to guide them, enough chalk to draw the Pentagrams necessary for their spells, and the burning desire to make all the academic trauma mean anything, they set off across Hell to save a man they don’t even like.
But Hell is not like the storybooks say, Magick isn’t always the answer, and there’s something in Alice and Peter’s past that could forge them into the perfect allies…or lead to their doom.
