Powered by passion for the craft and familial obligation, respectively, Silvio Zampini and Pietro Pizzutti are two pizzaiolos who’ve shared an animosity since childhood, fueled by the long-ago desolation of their families’ friendship. They both have their struggles, however, and these are only magnified when a new pizza joint opens right across the street: glitzy, high-tech, and backed by some serious cash. Forced to work together to oust this new competitor, they’ll uncover both the underbelly of the corporation in question and the truth of their own pasts.
Originally released by Comixology Originals and Stout Club, the creative powerhouse composed by comic creators Eduardo Medeiros, Mateus Santolouco, Rafael Albuquerque, and Rafael Scavone. Sliced offers a beautifully illustrated exploration of generational grudges and the effect  of economic powerhouses on small business. Presented in print for the first time by ABLAZE!

JRR TOLKIEN GENESIS COLLECTED SET

(W) Willy Duraffourg, Sami Makkonen (A / CA) Giancarlo Caracuzo, Sami Makkonen
Delve into the life and inspirations of the “Father of Epic Fantasy” with ABLAZE’s J.R.R. Tolkien Genesis Collected Set, two great GN titles-Kalevala and Tolkien: Lighting Up the Darkness-that reveal the personal history and literary inspirations for Tolkien’s most well-known works, all at a specially discounted price!
In Kalevala: The Graphic Novel artist Sami Makkonen presents a stunning comic adaptation of the Finnish national epic the Kalevala, which inspired J.R.R. Tolkien to write The Silmarillion and The Lord of the Rings. The story tells the adventures and fates of wizard Väinämöinen, warrior Lemminkäinen, black-smith Ilmarinen and other larger than-life-characters looking for love, riches and magic in the far-away lands of the ancient North. The world of Kalevala is lyrical, harsh and totally unique.
In Tolkien: Lighting Up the Darkness: JRR Tolkien was not always the old Oxford professor pipe in the mouth, refining his extraordinary work. In 1915, at age 23, he left for the front with his high school friends, whom he loved like brothers. The horror of war will brand his relationship to friendship, love, and creation. This graphic novel explores the youth of the author of The Lord of the Rings, and his traumatic experience of the battlefields of the First World War, which will forge the imagination of his literary work.
