Maximus Ohanzee Wildhorse, renamed 'Maximus Wyld' by Hollywood, was a talented, prized, admired comedian. Of mixed race black, Chinese, and Amerindian descent, he was 'the actor with a thousand faces,' essentially interpreting ethnic roles: Indian chief, Mexican revolutionary, oriental dandy. His filmography is an anthology of cinema: Vertigo, The Maltese Falcon, Sunset Boulevard, The Prisoner of the Desert, Rebecca. However, no credits mention his name. On celluloid there is no imprint of his face. Maximus the precursor rests in the graveyard of Hollywood amnesia. What event pushed him into limbo? What occult and superior force has stored his career in a cinematic Bermuda Triangle? A veritable reinterpretation of the myth of American cinema through the prism of minorities, Erased reveals the political and social dimension of Hollywood productions. (immagine)

When he's five years old, Albert Einstein's father offers him a compass that triggers in him an irrepressible need to understand the laws of the universe. At first a simple employee of the Swiss Patent Office in Bern, the young Einstein published in 1905 a series of scientific articles that question everything that was thought to be known in the world of physics. His theory, summed up by the formula E = mc2, opens to humanity the doors of the power of the atom. Legendary Genius, but also a great humanist, he lives through the first half of the 20th century, with all its horrors and contradictions, in the service of science, but distraught by what man's madness is capable of doing with it.

Beautiful. Each panel and page could easily be a piece of solo art hanging on someone's wall.' (immagine)

Superstar European SF and Fantasy comics artist Enki Bilal revisits the Louvre in twenty-two portraits. He imagines 22 fates of men, women and children whose lives have been affected by a work of art. They haunt the halls of the Louvre. They are long dead, often violently. They are a Roman legionary, a muse, a painter, a German officer. Each, one day, met a painter or a sculptor and was their model. Bilal startlingly brings them back to life. Both a work of Fantasy and a masterful homage, this was presented in a special exhibition in the Louvre in early 2013. (immagine)
